Customer Reviews
I wrote a big nice review and then it would not submit and then it went away. So I’ll try to do another one but probably will not have everything in it. I do like the machine but I had to get in the right mind frame and that could just be me. I had lots of questions We watched videos on you tube and they helped. I enlarged our book we could not read the tiny print. I think it would be nice if there was some examples of length of time to dry items. I didn’t d order a second set of pans and I am glad. I am able to have one set in machine and second set in freezer waiting for the next run. I am enjoying trying different foods. I like my dryer
Man this machine is "a tank"! There's nothing flimsy about it. There is a bit of a learning curve when your used to a one button push machine but not bad. I could tell right away that this will be a work horse. I bought the standard machine with the Premier pump because I already had an HR dryer so I didn't see the need to go Max. I'm a small candy, fruit, pet treats, and camp food business and it's perfect for me. I only wish the owners manual was a little larger with a few step by step instructions for newbies. But all in all I would definitely buy this again and I wish I knew about Stay Fresh when I bought my first dryer!

The end product has been so good! I’m looking forward to our produce ripening so it can get at preserving.
Love it so far. My only complaint is the instruction manual is printed too small and just copied and stapled together haphazardly. Not a big deal
