I have an Excalibur, the Cadillac version of home dehydrators. You may find a deal on eBay, as I did. Many people like the Nesco/American Harvbet sold at walmart. If you can afford and find a dehydrator with a variable temperature control and a fan, get it. Two of Excalibur's best features are the fan in the back of the unit, so that all the trays have good ariflow across them and the variable temperature control. There is a model with a timer for more money, but one could use a timer that plugs into the outlet easily enough and save those $$ for something else.
