Questions about Excalibur D500SHD Electric Food Dehydrator, 5-Tray, Silver (Discontinued

Is the interior also stainless steel or plastic?

Answer: Plastic Polycarbonate material.

Answer: The inner sidewall channels that the stainless trays slide into, are plastic, but the food does not touch them while they are on the stainless trays. The top inner wall liner inside is plastic, and the bottom inner wall liner is also plastic. The door is all stainless, and does not have a liner. The large inner airflow screen inside the back that protects the heat element, thermostadt, and fan, is metal, and I assume is stainless also.

Answer: Yes, I believe it is stainless steel.

Heather Bee : Dried herbs

I would love to try this dehydrator! It seems more heavy-duty than the plastic one I have. I'd probably try some dried herbs and then apples as I like them for the kids' lunches.
I've not seen this model before, thanks for the link!

I like homemade beef jerky and I would also like to try the tomatoes. Herbs are expensive in the store, I would like to try my hand at drying herbs, too!

I have a few friends that own these dehydrators for those looking for actual users.. I am not one. But My friends use them and are VERY happy with them. One of the tends to dry a lot of food on a regular basis.. So YES they are a great product. I have seen how the work and They are very efficient.

This is an amazing product that offers a variety of uses for those like myself that are making the choice to have a healthier real food lifestyle. Looking forward to starting my first garden and eating fresh ripe tomatoes off the vine as well as making zesty dehydrated tomatoes that I can use all year round! For now I'll start with dried apples, then coconut macaroons, then kale chips, then yogurt, oh, the adventure has begun!

Edgar W. : Four Stars

Great Dehydrator but was too small to meet My needs

SmithFam : Excalibur dehydrators are the best!

I have never owned an Excalibur dehydrator because I have I have a Nesco American Harvester which is a work horse but I cannot do yogurt with it. I have children with a lot of different allergies and I struggle making yogurt! Everyone that I know that has an Excalibur loves them and they can do so many different things! So, the first thing that I would make is yogurt!

Angela Chain : mommypotamus

I have not used a dehydrator before although I would love to have one. Having eight children at home makes finding nutritious snacks a little tougher and a lot more expensive. I think with this I would be able to buy bulk in season produce and make a large amount of snacks! Wish me luck!

El Chupacabras : Mommypotamus

Would love to make some kale chips and other raw goodies for my family as I'm resolved to becoming vegetarian by year's end.

Elizabeth Woodward : Mommypotamus

TURKEY JERKY!! Must have this…husband and I are looking for healthier alternatives and this would be great for dried fruit and such.

judy freeman : Mommypotamus

I love shoppin sies that show allot. The first thing will be tomatoes. then will move along and try some oranges

I would love to make fruit strips, my kids love them! It would be fun to make things together in the kitchen
