The best dehydrator for raw fooders!,
I purchased my White 9 tray Excalibur 3000 series 2 years ago and I’m so very pleased that I did!
I purchased it directly from Excaliber and not through Amazon or any of its third party sellers. At the time, Excaliber/KBI direct was the only way to purchase the 3000 series white model but the price was good, shipping free, the service excellent ~ plus, and a big plus with me, a free 10 year warranty!
As it is quite a large(but light-weight)appliance, the white is less imposing than the black model in my small white kitchen. It has worked exceedingly well to meet the requirements of my raw vegan diet. It did get a lot of use the first year that I had it, more so then than now. I have been eating less dehydrated food so don’t use it as often as I first did but still I find it easy to use and handy when I do need a dehydrator and I’m glad to have one.
My only problem, and it’s a minor one, is the noise. It is not especially quiet but I still give it 5 stars. I have remedied the problem easily enough by simply moving it to another room when I am dehydrating an item that requires a longer drying period, such as the tomatoes I’m dehydrating right now which have been drying for 3 days at low temperature.
If you are shopping for a good dehydrator, Excalibur is the one to buy. I recommend getting the 9 trays too. You’ll be glad to have them over the smaller ones. And do shop around for the best price and consider Excaliber for that warranty.

|best of the best,
This food dehydrator is sooooooo good. Comes with a great full sized book with drying times and lots of receipes for the dried foods.
My house is solar and the Excaliber doesn’t draw too much electricity to be a problem.
I have saved more food from my garden this year then ever before. All that produce that you can’t find time to can – dry it. Takes less space and you don’t have to kill all the enzymes so you are eating “better”.

|Dang buzzing drives me crazy,
My mother got me hooked on dried persimmons, but she passed away last year, so since I have a couple of persimmon trees I decided to try making some dried persimmons of my own. We made a ton of them and the great thing about this dryer is that there is quite a bit of room so we can make a fairly large quantity in each batch. We used most of our persimmons to make jam and still had enough persimmons to dry about five batches – it’s amazing how many persimmons you get from two trees! We look forward to trying it with tomatoes and some of the other fruit from our garden next year.
The only real problem we had was that the lid pushed the trays into the safety screen which rubbed against the fan making the most annoying buzz – probably wasn’t too good for the fan either. There isn’t any way to adjust the height of the fan, so I used some pliers (took three attempts) and bent the screen so it’s a little more square instead of rounded, and it is much better. Even so if you push the door closed too far – BUZZZ!
The manual suggests you can use this thing when making bread to create a warm spot for the dough to rise so I tried it, but it’s a rather impractical suggestion. The dehydrator fan runs whenever it’s on so it’s noisy even if it isn’t buzzing and I think it wastes energy to leave it running for hours while bread rises — better to warm the oven and stick the dough in there to rise (just my opinion).
