Questions about LEM Products 1152 Food Dehydrator (5-Tray)

I noticed that lem only offers a 2 year warranty were excalibur products come with a 10 year warranty. sounds like they might not be durable??

Answer: Our LEM had a fuse go out very soon after we purchased it but we were able to fix it without a spendy bill. Yesterday we used our dehydrator to make venison jerky but ended up having to finish it in the oven. The heating unit now has a problem. I have used our dehydrator but it certainly not due to overuse. I use it occasionally...probably not more than twice a year.

Answer: I've had mine for a few years and haven't had any problems. (Excuse me while I go knock on some wood)

do I need to rotate the trays

Answer: when you email LEM and ask why 5 trays of jery are done and 5 are still wet, they will tell you that you need to rotate trays and shuffle them. SO not only do trays 6,7,8,9,10 now go in 1,2,3,4,5... you also must rotate the fronts to the rears for perfectly even drys. Lem is working on a new patent design that guarantees 100% set and forget.

Answer: I have found I get a more even drying by rotating about half way through. This is very true for fruit leather.

Answer: No you do not.

The description states "10 stainless steel trays", however the features says stainless "OR" chrome plated trays. Does anyone know which are included?

Answer: Chrome are included. You can upgrade to stainless as an option. I use parchment paper to line my chrome trays for both jerky and fruit. My trays are spotless.

Answer: Plated trays are included in this model.

Answer: mine were chrome plated

Answer: My LEM came with Chrome trays, but all other parts, or most are Stainless and quite good quality. The trays are wearing well and have not shown penetration to the base metal, all an all a really good quality product, definitely repairable when that time comes and reasonable sound level unlike some responses. So far all Jerky so with the pretty high salt cure content, it would have started to penetrate if the Chrome was of poor quality.

What is the exact size of the tray?

Answer: 14 7/16” x 16 1/4”. There are 10 removable trays.

Can you put the trays and drip tray in the dishwasher?

Answer: I do and haven't had any problems. I love this dehydrator!!

Has anybody had an issue with noise while using this product? i've heard that lem dehydrators can be pretty loud.

Answer: I love my lem dehydrator. I don't think it's loud.

Answer: We have one and use it often. It is not very loud. My fridge is louder.

Answer: I just got mine i love it does make a little noise but works much faster then my old one

Answer: Not extremely loud. Works wonderfully too.

how much is the shipping weight? it says that is 26 pounds but the product weight is 16 pound... there is a 10 pounds difference

Answer: Unit is 16 lbs the shipping weight is 28lbs box dimensions is 23x19x19

Can you use this for drying fruit/applesauce/etc.? Do I need to get some silicone mats to cover the trays? Thank you.

Answer: You will need a mat as the opening are about 5/8 inch. I found some that are 14''X14" they work for me. Love the Dehydrator

Answer: yes, fruits and many other items. I purchased the silicone sheets for about $10. It just made the process easier so the smaller items like peas could be dehydrated.

Answer: Yes you have to purchase mats of some kind. I bought mats and it worked great for fruit. I love my lem dehydrator.

Answer: I have dried several different fruits and jerky. I always put then on parchment paper to keep the racks clean and it works perfect. Never tried apple sauce.

Can this dehydrate meats to feed dogs

Answer: That's one of the main reasons I got it. I do 1/4 in chicken strips at 145 for 2 hours then 120 until dry (6-10 hours more depending on thickness). It drys evenly, without rotating trays. The dogs love them- and they're not from China with questionable chemicals and such.

Answer: Yes. But, remember typically meat dehydrated for dogs is not cured and therefore may carry bacteria that won't harm your dog but may be harmful to people. So, if you plan to use this dehydrator for human-grade food as well, the racks and sides should be sanitized after each dog batch.

Answer: I don't see why not.

Can you use this unit for making yogurt?

Answer: I'm also looking to make yogurt with a dehydrator. From my understanding it should work. But you still have to wrap the jar in a towel. I'll post a review once I've tried it.

Answer: I have not used it for yogurt, but it seems like it would provide the correct environment.

Are the unit itself and the trays plastic or stainless steel?

Answer: No, this is not the stainless steel model. Trays are plastic.

Answer: The unit and crumb tray are metal; the drying racks are plastic.

Answer: The outside is plastic feels strong, the drawers are a good plastic too

Answer: Plastic

Will you include backwoods jerky variety pack classic with purchase of lem dehydrator

Answer: That's a question for the seller, questions here are answered by people that purchased the LEM. Since the price on Amazon is much cheaper than on the LEM website you're getting a deal without the jerky spices.

What are the dimensions of this machine?

Answer: 18 + 7/8 deep x 16 and a quarter tall x 16 in 5/8 wide . Doors 18 in wide. By far the best jerky maker I've ever had recommend using grilling sheets. You have no mess using the sheets in the jerky comes out perfect on these sheets no cleaning

Answer: Aluminum, it’s weighs approx. 30 - 35 lbs. My wife can easily move it. Works absolutely great.

Where can I obtain a quality outdoor cover for this dehydrator?

Is the unit made of stainless steel?

Answer: The trays are for sure, and I'm fairly confident that the cabinet is as well. The unit has a little weight to it. and because of its size takes up a lot of counter space.

Answer: Yes, but I don’t think the shelves are stainless. I have used it one season and love it...I have never had such a high quality product before.

Answer: No. Would be overkill for what it does and way more expensive

Answer: No, some kind of metal and plastic shelves.

Answer: No

Inches between each shelf

Answer: My eyeball estimate is about 2 to 3 inches

What voltage does this product use, 110v only or 110-220v?

Answer: 110, if that's regular house current. I just plug it into a regular outlet in my kitchen or laundry room (its a bit noisy, so sometimes I put it in there).

Answer: 110

Answer: 110v only

Answer: 110 only.

Will you include backwoods jerky variety pack classic with purchase of lem dehydrator?

Answer: Yes

Answer: Mine is wired for 110 volts only

lem says there Warranty on the 1154 model is 5 years. Why is this one only 1 Year Warranty ?

Answer: I don't know but they wipe clean easily

how does one get the stainless steel shelves instead of the chrome plated ones?

Answer: You need to buy them separately from LEM. I believe they are about $100. Chrome ones work fine all the same. I use parchment paper on mine to keep everything clean. It does not affect the end result of whatever I’m dehydrating and makes cleanup a breeze.

Can you make fruit leather with it?

Answer: Yes. I make it all the time. I bought smaller sheet pans that fit inside the dehydrator, and line them with parchment paper. When the fruit leather is done, I leave it on the parchment, and cut it with scissors into the size I want for single servings and store. My son just peels it off the parchment when he's ready to eat it. Fruit leather without all the junk.

Answer: Haven't tried making fruit leather yet but it would be easy to do with either wax paper or a non stick sheet.

Answer: I'm sure you can , just haven't tried it yet

lem 1152 v 1153

Answer: The one pictured is not the one we have. We have an LEM 10 tray model which we like.

Which is better for deer jerky small holes or large holes trays.

Are the plastic shelves bpa free?

Where is this product made?

How many pounds of fresh meat can i put in that machine???

Answer: I've done as much as 7lbs at about 5-6 thinness but really I find 3-5lbs works best. You can finish the smaller about in about 3 hrs with a small 30min follow up for a try or two but with the larger amount it will take more like 5-6 hrs and you'll have to check more after the main dry. I do really like the dryer but for large amounts of meat the fans are strong enough to knock it out and be really consistent with the airflow.

Answer: i grind my meats and use the Lem Meat canon. I get 11lbs of meat on 10 trays.

Answer: Approx 20lbs depending on how thick/thin it is cut

Product reviews of LEM Products 1152 Food Dehydrator (5-Tray)

T. Porter : Very large, but amazing!

This thing takes up a lot of counter space, but I'm using it to dry fruit at least every other week. Super easy to use, set the time and push the start button. It has a heat dial that I only use it for two settings, max for drying pepperoni and summer sausage to make jerky and then I dial it down to 140 to dry fruit. Some fruit can be done in 7 hours and some can be done in 9 hours. Pepperoni slices dry down to crunchy chips but I could never get the summer sausage down to crunchy chip level. We're going to start drying down our own fresh herbs. I think in the long run, this will save money versus buying store bought jerky, trail mix and spices.

LitFitKing : Best bang for your dollar!

This thing cuts drying time in half!

KimG : Cheap doors on the 10 tray

I’ve used this 10 draw model for 3 years now. It’s been great but I had some trouble with the doors from the start. To remove top trays you must take off the top door completely. It does not hinge up.
There is a gap between the top and bottom draw of about a 1/4 inch. Might be for airflow but there’s warm air pushing out at all times when in use.
The bottom door is a plastic hinged that goes down. It works but out of nowhere, while NOT in use, the door completely fell off. Hinge broke and now I have to tape the door on since it only has a 1 year warranty.
If you’re looking for something that needs to be at an exact temperature, look for a digital model. This one has a dial for temperature control.

Lou : Much better quality at a lower price

We originally ordered the Excalibur 3926 from Amazon, but we returned it immediately after opening when we saw how cheaply made it was compared to the $275 price. We then ordered the Lem 1154 and we haven't regretted it for a second. The Lem 1154 dehydrator is larger than the Excalibur, much better design, and costs less. The Lem is beautiful stainless steel, quiet, and works great. The Excalibur dehydrator is an inferior product, it's not even in the same league as the Lem 1154 dehydrator. Five stars for the Lem 1154.

Scott McDill : A great deal!

I sure like this dehydrator! It's very quiet, perfect capacity for anything im gonna need, and the trays clean up real easy. Few things I wish were better.... the front doors can be annoying to get back on, you cannot add time to the clock without turning the unit off and back on, and it doesn't auto shut off once it's done. Now, none of these are deal breakers and im being nit picky, just little things that could be improved upon. This is a quality machine that's definitely worth the $.

CA in CA : Powerful, 10 trays, quiet

Its a lot bigger than I thought it would be. It has 10 trays, which is good. Doors are very cumbersome (they aren't really doors, just 2 plastic covers that are sort of hard to pop on and off. If anything breaks on the unit, it will be those "doors".) Its very quite and love that its 800 watts. Sad that its made in China.

nikki montano : Four Stars

The plastic trays warped but the unit itself is great.

TheManWithNoName : Great Product

Love this thing. So far I have match 10lb of my own home made beef jerky and a ton of apple chips for the hiking trail.

kevin p : Very casual use only

Was noisy but bearable... worked great for 3 weeks then the. Fan in-back stopped working so I returned it ... I did use it every weekend for 3 weeks. I guess if u use it here and there it may last longer.

Michelle : Just as described

Easy to use. Just as described. Large unit, you’ll need some counter space for it.

nikki montano : Four Stars

The plastic trays warped but the unit itself is great.

Pam T : Great Dehydrator

I bought an Excalibur that had 9 trays and thought it would work great. Then I bought this one and it had 10 trays and was about $40 cheaper. It turns out that this one was a better dehydrator than the Excalibur (the Excalibur's top shelf was so close to the top of the machine it was unusable - every time you dried something in it you had to fight with the tray to get it out so I returned it). Not only did it have 10 trays, it was also cheaper. It has a timed dry cycle which is great and it is easy to clean. The noise isn't all that bad although it is slightly noisy but still not bad. I was replacing a smaller, older dehydrator that I had had for probably 20 years and loved it as well. As a matter of fact, I bought another one of these LEM dehydrators so I can dry more at one time.

Charlie : Shop around for a different door design first

Love this dehydrator only problem is the door. It's made pretty crappy. The style stinks. The lower part keeps falling off but I love the rest of it
I love the large capacity and the digital controls and the auto shut off and timer. I probably will buy one with a different door set up next time

Amazon_User : LEM Products 778A Stainless Steel 10 Tray...

LEM Products 778A Stainless Steel 10 Tray... is as described.

Wife had a hard time figuring out to assemble shelf bracket, but, I get why no instructions, --they just slip/hook in and self evident or should be, but, may not be. Put a picture online for folks "like that"... they exist and no, they're not "kidding" :)

Quality, --as good as it can be. (As one from a very diverse self sufficient engineering background, 100% on that)

I just don't get why I can't pick the SS option here and get the SS shelves and NOT have to spend another $100 and have 10 chrome shelves... for what? So, I stuck with the Chrome option. My stove is Chrome, all have been life long. But, would've been nice to get a 50% discounted option!, as chioice, --would'a spent it and got it.

I did check the Temperature as advised everywhere... used 3 different thermometers and in different locations and yes, --empty (I know why, good to explain though for "those" folks who need an (*) instruction.

Anyway, when set at max 150F on Temperature, mine was hitting 160F and seemed to click off and back on at maybe (hard to be "that" precise...) 145F ish. So the range of hi/lo looked right to me and favours high side.

One useful idea I had to check the even spread of air temp --was to use my Laser gun thermometer for surface reading on the outside (the only practical way I could think of)... -- checked ALL EXTERNAL surfaces in all locations, all 6 sides, empty unit... all "averaged" about 85F -- so, you are not really gonna get burned until you open it and grab a shelf at >100F... so pretty safe IMO. (Yes, for me at >130F it's gonna get my attention)

The only "hot spot" I found, from external reading was the (facing the unit) top left corner where their internal Temp Control Bulb is located, --read approximately 92F (again, external temp). Otherwise across all surfaces saw that above stated reading. Why important? The ENTIRE INTERNAL temp would then be consistent, correct? Yes, correct.

The air coming from the front vents when set at 150F max for Jerky, was reading about 112 - 130F, --yes with 5 Shelves, and empty relatively, (top down loaded) full. So, there's your evaporative, "AC" affect/effect :) ! , indeed! No, I did not keep an internal remote thermometer... over kill. I'm very HAPPY with the temp check.

So, last night did my first batch of Beef Jerky, --yes, as commented 1-lb/shelf so 5 shelves. I set it at 150F max, and Analog Timer at 5hrs and was exactly aligned knob line and time set line and ran slightly more than 5hours but, sorry not exact, was maybe 5 mins, 10 mins more (?). So, maybe do a 1-2mm or so slightly under line to line timer line setting. You'll get the exact time if collate to a digital timer. And, remember, my AMBIENT Temp was about 80F at 50% relative humidity and my very lean Top Round was cut under 1/4in thick... went for 1/8 and got what I got. (I'm pretty good with my Ceramic Blade Knife and hand slicing beef --get a meat slicer if gonna to this allot, --no regrets with that time saver and consistency element.) Otherwise, hand cut 5-10x's a year, is plenty good enough.

What else... durability looks good. ANY hand person can fix this no problem IMO. If the Fan or Heating Element Wire ever goes, -- what, like a half hour to fix. Unless cheaper to buy yet another one? Well, that's how that goes. IMO the >700watt element is plenty!

I did experiment with Vinegar 5% acidity presoak and post dry at 275F/10mins thing... --eh, at 5lbs, cut as I did 5 hours was *perfect, imo. If you need survival food, heck, go for it. If you're gonna throw it into a Mason Jar, in the Frig... 4-5hrs even not presoaked, just use a marinade is plenty good. Otherwise, it got tough and unless very precise withe post-cook timing... will get a "burned" taste and again, but very chewy... --not bad at all either... but, this is not 1 year back woods emergency food.

As long as it hits that 160F (remember at my internal room, "ambient" temp of 80F ish... may be 75F...) I'm fine with this. I did a 1lb of 97% of ground beef and did not like it... as online said folks in WI wouldn't :) ... more like a, well, not for me and was well flavoured with spices. The texture was not "jerky" like. Very easy to eat though, that way. So, if need that, e.g., bad teeth... go for it. But, the post cook thing 275F/10min... but very precise... you won't make chips, just get a burnt taste. I used the Lazer Gun Thermometer... and the surface was 275F...--honestly at 1/8 dried thickness, if the surface was 160F... it would all be 160F. So if muscle meet jerky... sit that and keep checking every min after the first 3-5min IMO! Remember, I'm new to this, like day one, --just not "new" here :)

As far as *Noise... yes the fan is quiet and there is NO "on" light... none at all. HOWEVER, the Front Panel started to rattle loudly! So, I put a pot holder under one leg to kind of "twist" it a bit, if that makes sense... put some tension on the box... took a couple of tries but then worked. Otherwise OMG 5hrs of that would be unpleasant and then I guess, use what?, tooth picks or etc. But, that's going to happen unless there's a latch to pull it tight. I didn't want to bend the panel.

So, especially at this price point <$200 pre tax amount... I'm very happy. So long as it lasts and Customer Service if needed remains as others posted.

(Forgive my typos, the Font here is small and well, this is not a novel, just notes for you all to use if choose to do so.)

Mary : Alot of space

With 10 racks and 15 by 15 for each one this can hold alot. Easy to use and clean. Doors are tricky and could use a redesign but they work just fine if you take your time.

Dave Wanner : miss representing dehydrated ... buying said 800 watts a get package home its say 770 wats

on package it said 800watts,,, recieved package it says 770 watts ... miss labeled

Amazon Customer : great product!

very quite and I really like it gives you the times needed and it has a timer for each item (jerky, fruit etc).
We like it so much my son will be ordering one.

Kindle Customer : quiet

so quiet, solid racks, easy to clean. Have used it almost every day since we got it.

Pam T : Great Dehydrator

Victor Stupak : good device!

dry fruits in a tropical area even during wet season and during tropical rain. full load of fruit requires 14 or 16 hours of drying at maximum temperature )with air moisture around 100%. easy to wash in a dishwashing machine. just awesome thing, really happy to have it

Pnuu : Great quality, huge capacity

This is the real deal, commercial grade food dehydration but in a size that works at home. We've made so many dried apples already... It can handle close to 8lb of apples in a single batch.

Dave Wanner : miss representing dehydrated ... buying said 800 watts a get package home its say 770 wats

on package it said 800watts,,, recieved package it says 770 watts ... miss labeled

Jason : Great for the money. Would recommend.

I only used this once so far, with that said I’m happy with it. Lot bigger then I expected which was nice. Temp seems to be consistent. The doors are janky. It’s 2 pieces of plastic that snap on NOT very easily. That’s my only complaint of that even counts but for the money you get a huge dehydrator with a drip pan that’s quiet. IDK if the pieces are dishwater safe but I’m going to find that out today.

Michelle : Just as described

Easy to use. Just as described. Large unit, you’ll need some counter space for it.

baboy : Not what I expected.

Odd that the dehydrating guide on the machine says 145-155 temp, but the dial only goes up to 150 degrees. I called LEM's number from the website and CS said that the dial on this model go up to 155. I'm thinking about returning this machine and buying directly from LEM's website just to have peace of mind.

Amazon Customer : Awesome product, Even drying and relatively quiet

Awesome product, Even drying and relatively quiet. They should add a vinyl edge in 3 spots on the bottom of the door so it does not vibrate, I used fish tank tubing slit down the side and slid on the bottom of the door to dampen the harmonics of the fan.

Amazon Customer : Doors are pretty cheesy I was going to send it back but they never send me a label

I thought it had metal shelves I did not like the doors on it

applejack : It works

Dollor for dollar these will get it done.Yes foreign made but seem to get the job done.Clean up seems easy and air control is pretty good.

Brenda Montalvo : Producto excelente

Excelente

Amazon Customer : broke after 1 batch of jerky

Bought this dehydrator and recieve it in fine shape. Third day we made a 15 pounds jerkey. Perfect! The second batch we tried to start, and the machine turned on, I set the timer and within 5 minutes the machine shut off, and won't restart! Says call the hotline, so I will. Unfortunately this type of quality control is not acceptable even if the fix it. My time and effort and 15 pounds of wasted marinated jerky to the garbage can, makes me say pass on this.

Bradley K. : Nice dehydrator

Pretty good jerky machine, holds a lot of meat, I did about 10 pounds easily, kind of noisy and does put out some heat, overall very happy.

Charlie : Shop around for a different door design first

pat : Good value

Satisfied with purchase. Doors a bit hard to use but OK. No problems of any sort.

The Natomas Farm : Loose the buzzer!

Works well...very happy with it. Trays are easy to clean...if use of spray oil is used. Drawbacks are two issues. Controls are in the top rear.....not a great thing if this unit is being placed under the kitchen cabinet.Second issue is the "finished" timer ringing alarm. Not good when it goes off in the night (often because we use it while sleeping).

TOOK ONE STAR AWAY FOR THIS: No response from the company's site. We we asking how to disarmed the timer buzzer.

Dog lover : Works very good!

I bought this few months ago and I used this for my dogs snacks. It works great and easy to take care of it. I recommend this product!

william Breckenridge : Love the size compaired to my old one

Love the size compaired to my old one, it's so quiet I have to look to see if the fan is turning so I know it is on

Ron Anderson : great product

very fast shipping and a great price

Janna Cordero : Not what I expected

I didn’t served its purpose

Amazon Customer : Two Stars

It takes much longer to dry food than is shown in their literature.

Amazon Customer : Doors are pretty cheesy I was going to send it back but they never send me a label

I thought it had metal shelves I did not like the doors on it

M. G. Forbes : Works great!

I've been drying apples and it's working great. Plastic front cover snaps on and off easily, trays fit well. Apples come out crispy.

The Natomas Farm : Loose the buzzer!

Amazon Customer : If you wish to use for years look elsewhere.

The doors are plastic which is ok but the way they open, you have to pull them off the dehydrator and then try and line them up and snap them back on. Not a good system. My fault for not looking at the pictures better, or would not have bought.

Brittany B. : Beautiful product, but HUGE.

This product has so much space that we did not know what to do with it all!! It was the most afforadable option for what we were looking for, but make sure to CHECK THE PRODUCT DIMENSIONS!! I did not and we had to return this item because it was far too big for our kitchen! Hands down we would have kept it if it was smaller, though!

Lou : Much better quality at a lower price

KimG : Cheap doors on the 10 tray

Amazon Customer : Awesome product, Even drying and relatively quiet

Kindle Customer : Great product

Works great

Bryson : So quiet!

This is a very quiet machine. We love the amount of drying space available. The stainless finish is easy to keep clean. We've done a ton of herbs, fruit and fruit leathers. Been doing some potatoes and vegetables, gonna try some jerky in a couple days.

nikki montano : Four Stars

The plastic trays warped but the unit itself is great.
