5 tray or 9 tray dehydrator?

Tink77

Hello. Going to be buying an excalibur dehydrator. Was wanting to get some feedback on which model might be better for me. I am sorta new to raw and am wanting to try a bunch of recipes that call for a dehydrator. I also have a 3 and 6 year old that I would like to make healthier snacks for. ANY input would be great! Thanks.

New to RAW I bought the less expensive NESCO American harvest dehydrator. Kept adding trays, protesting that the Excalibur was too big, too expensive, too unnecessary. Four months into RAW I bought the 9-Tray and it is AWESOME! There are not enough adjectives to describe just how great it is! Trays of crackers, breads and tomatoes drying all at once. It’s great!

Word to the 9 tray. You can make more stuff to eat all week.

Thanks everyone for the input so far!! Looks like a 9 tray will be getting a new home!
