Review on 🍽️ NESCO FD-1040 Gardenmaster Digital Pro Dehydrator: The Ultimate Jerky and Snack Maker with 4 Trays by Chris Bond

New doesn't mean better

I got an American combine harvester from my stepmother to get this box of stuff from my house. I have cleaned and used it myself after sitting in the basement for a year, it works great, the dial is on the bottom, there isn't even an on or off button! So I figured I'd buy another, stronger one, maybe to speed up the drying time. FALSE This newer, more expensive model is ridiculous, and that's the best description I can think of right now. The trays are cheaply built, the motor doesn't sit well on the tray and the airflow is terrible. The only "light" use is the number keys, do they work well? Both models worked for me, the old 500w model worked in my opinion, this one did next to nothing at the same temperature. Unfortunately, some companies, having achieved success, begin to skimp on quality, which seems to be the case in this situation.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • unreliable
