A Food Dehydrator

Wouldn't bother with bananas again (unless I was given a bucketload) but mushrooms, courgettes and lots of green stuff have dried well.

So you think it was worth the investment in space and pennies? Do you have masses of jars of dried stuff?

I didn't say that. I failed drying tomatoes - couldn't cut them thin enough. Didn't try drying any apples or other fruit. I don't have masses of jars of stuff and I could have been a lot more committed to drying than I was.
Its quite big and awkward to move around. Luckily I have space for it in the utility room so its stayed there.
I've also just acquired a smaller dehydrator, not tried it yet, but it could be useful for drying a few odds and ends. We'll see.
Are you thinking of getting one?

You don’t want to cut tomatoes to thin for dehydrating. As they are mostly water the shrink a lot. If they are to thin to start with they will be like paper when they come out and will just stick to they trays and fall apart.

I'm always thinking  
I think a dehydrator is in the same league as an airfryer  -  a nice thought but footprint space is very limited.  TBH I'm a bit like Scarlet, I have shelves full of jam and chutney that are unlikely to be eaten any time soon. Dehydrated stuff would probably be the same.

I felt that they were too wet to start with, maybe I should have poked all the pips out of the middle and just left the outer bit to dry.
