i was looking for threads on dehydrators and this was the best. any updates after using yours over time?

many people mentioned nesco from walmart but i doubt they'd have it in the store at this time of the year.

i want one for drying garlic and sun gold tomatoes possibly cayenne peppers but they air dry ok inside with a/c during summer. what features do i look for? how many shelves? fan i assume is important? thermostat sounds like a good feature based upon comments. watts? ruth says 500 works fine.

appreciate comments.
