Perfect for mothers day gifts, the NESCO FD-61WHCK Food & Jerky Dehydrator is designed to be the ultimate kit for beginners or experts. Accessories include a jerky gun with three tip attachments, three fruit roll sheets, three clean-a-screens, three jerky seasoning & cure samples, and a recipe & instruction book. This dehydrator comes with six (13 1/2" diameter) trays and expands up to 12 trays so you can dry large quantities at once, with no tray rotation needed. Additional Add-A-Trays sold separately. The adjustable temperature control (95°F -160°F) gives you the flexibility to achieve the best results when drying different foods that need varying temperature settings. The quiet, powerful Converga-Flow® fan forces heated air down the exterior pressurized chamber, then horizontally across each individual tray. The air flow then converges in the center for quick, consistent drying that is four times faster than other dehydrators. The top mounted fan eliminates liquids dripping into the heater chamber. The NESCO FD-61WHCK Food & Jerky Dehydrator is great for dehydrating fruit rollups, banana chips, apple chips, jerky, and other healthy snacks.
EVEN HEAT DISTRIBUTION: 500-watt 6-tray food dehydrator dries in hours instead of days and opaque vita-save exterior helps block harmful light which destroys nutritional content of food being dehydrated
ADJUSTABLE THERMOSTAT: Top-mounted fan; adjustable thermostat from 95°F to 160°F
CONVERGA-FLOW SYSTEM: Converga-Flow drying system pushes heated air up and across each tray, without having to rotate them
EXPANDABLE TO 12 TRAYS: Comes with six 13.5 inch BPA Free trays, so you can dry large quantities at once with no tray rotation needed; additional trays sold separately
MADE IN THE USA: Proudly made in the USA of global and domestic components
ACCESSORIES INCLUDED: Includes 1 Jerky Gun with 3 tip attachments, 3 Fruit Roll Sheets, 3 Clean-A-Screens, 3 Jerky Seasoning & Cure samples, and a Recipe & Instruction book
I really liked this dehydrator. It works way faster and better then the one I had. So much easier to clean. I love it.This is an excellent and easy to us dehydrator. I originally purchased one 15 years ago and used it regularly. It recently stopped working and I purchased the same one again since it had worked so well for all those years.Does great job on fruit leather or jerky. Well priced product , lasts for years.Love the dehydrator. The jerky gun that comes with it however is junk. The tube cracked all the way during the first time using it. Very disappointed.After quite a bit of research, I chose to buy this Nesco Food Dehydrator due to the price point for what advertised. My main reason for buying this was to dry all my Ghost Peppers this year instead of pickling or freezing. I had 2 plants that WAY over produced this year and wanted to smoke and then dry these chili's. This dehydrator does not disappoint. I have used it to dry out basil and other spices along with thoroughly dehydrating my Smoked Ghost Chili's. I will have to wait till after Deer season to try my hand at some Venison Jerky but I'm pretty sure it will do it's job.PRO'S:1. Many trays and accessories to literally dehydrate any kind of food. Even fruit rollups.2. It achieves temperature pretty quickly and I used my wireless BBQ thermometer to verify the temp's and it was only 1 degree off(there will be some margin of error due to it being an analog temp dial). Don't really need a digital readout to break on me later down the road.3. It does it's job and pretty much at the prescribed times the instruction book says it will take.4. It has a pretty good price point compared to other dehydrators that I read reviews on not being able to achieve high enough temps to dry jerky correctly.5. Dishwasher safe trays and accessories.CON'S: Right now, none that I can think of. Maybe if it stops doing what the company advertises it will do, then I will come and update this review.If you're looking to dry spices, fruits, vegetables or just want to make some jerky after a successful hunt, look no further. This one will do it all at a good price and is durable.This unit has been in storage a long time. The jerkey spices included were beyond the expiration date. I just threw them away. The dehydrator still worked. I like the fact that you can adjust the temperature.Loved my previous version of this model when it was still labeled as “American Harvest”. (Model number is the same.) Wanted a second so I could dehydrate more at once. The quality of the trays is now terrible. Wavy/warped and thin when they used to be flat and so sturdy.I thought I’d received a lemon and contacted the company directly. Was informed that the old trays are no longer available and that I could try to flatten my trays by using the machine. Trays have not flattened yet. (Got them specifically for fruit leather and it’s hard to make it from puréed fruit when it’s not able to sit evenly.)First photo is a tray from the older version and second is the one I bought most recently.Rest of the machine works great and it’s nice for jerky.The fan is loudish, but it does the task in less time than the one I had for many yearsTrès simple à utiliser et vas bien , seul bémol faut faire attention au lavage car n’est pas très solide et après une couple d’utilisation on dirait que les racks prennent de l’expansion et on perd de la chaleur car il ne s’empilent plus tout à fait égal un par dessus l’autre . Pour le reste belle machine j’aime bien .We do beef jerky every weekend, and it turned out perfect, fast and convenient.Ca fait vraiment ce que je m'attendais, tres bon achat pour ma partworks well, the plastic is rather thin in spots and cracks and chips relatively easily.Excellent
