I bought a cheap 30 dollar dehydrator and tried to dehydrate some white chicken chilli, I lined all of the trays with way paper and put it in and about 30 minutes later it was dead. I don't know if it was my fault or faulty.

So I am looking for a reasonably priced dehydrator. What do you suggest, I need it to be able to dry meals (soups, chilli, fruits, make jerky, maybe some herbs)

Thanks,
