The Excalibur 4-tray is our recommended entry-level dehydrator. With a smaller footprint than the 5-tray and 9-tray, it takes up less counter space than the bigger models. 4 trays is adequate to make a batch of crackers, cookies or kale chips, and to test out how you like to play around with drying fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds.
We have used Excalibur in our home kitchens for over 25 years, and we have found them to be the most reliable dehydrators available, at the best price.

Further Information
Featuring the unique Parallexx™ Horizontal Airflow Drying System, which draws in cool air, heats it to the desired temperature and then feeds it throughout the trays simultaneously. The food dehydrates as the Excalibur’s hot air evenly removes the moisture from the food, and the front of the dehydrator is open, allowing the unwanted moisture to escape.
The horizontal airflow feature in the Excalibur ensures even dehydration and eliminates the need to re-stack trays during the drying process.
The Excalibur is truly flexible, allowing trays to be removed to allow for drying larger pieces of food, such as complete fruits.
The Excalibur dehydrator features flexible mesh inserts, which prevents food from sticking to the trays, making the seamless, polycarbonate trays easy to clean.
The Excalibur’s adjustable thermostat offers the capability of perfect dehydration on every occasion and unlike many comparable dehydrators, which feature round edged trays, the dishwasher-safe trays of the Excalibur, feature square-edged trays, thus increasing the dehydrators drying capability.
This food dehydrator is supplied with four trays, offering up to 4 square feet of dehydration drying area. The dehydrator is powered by a 2200W motor and uses a 4-inch fan.

You need Teflex or Paraflex sheets for your dehydrator trays. We recommend searching for "oven liners" on Amazon or a cookshop to get the best price.
