Compact food dehydrator for home preservation
The Maxi-Matic MFD-5000 provides 240W drying capacity across five stackable stainless steel trays. Adjustable spacing from 0.6 to 1.1 inches accommodates thick-cut ingredients. Digital controls set temperature between 95 and 167°F for up to 48 hours. The unit retains 97% of vitamins and minerals during dehydration.
Sustained drying performance over long cycles
The 240W heater maintains consistent airflow across all trays for the full 48-hour timer range. Stainless steel trays conduct heat evenly without warping during extended runs. BPA-free plastic housing resists heat buildup while the stainless steel base adds stability. Continuous operation preserves natural juices and nutrients without degradation.
Five-tray capacity defines batch size
Five food-grade trays determine how much jerky, fruit, or dog treats you can process in a single cycle. Adjustable height extends versatility but total volume stays fixed at five layers. Buyers needing larger batches per run will find the tray count limiting. The 120V, 500W supply supports the heating element within standard kitchen circuits.

Questions about this item
How much heat and power does the 240W drying system produce during a full 48-hour cycle?
The unit draws 240W for drying while the overall appliance is rated at 500W on a 120V supply, so sustained heat output matches that power level for up to 48 hours.
What must I already have in my kitchen to run the 120V 500W dehydrator?
A standard 120-volt North American outlet on a circuit that can supply 500 watts; no special wiring or dedicated circuit is required.
Will the 11.8-inch wide base and 0.6-inch tray spacing fit on the same counter as my older 11-inch deep toaster oven?
The dehydrator footprint is 11.8 inches wide by 8.5 inches deep, so it needs slightly more width but less depth than an 11-inch deep appliance; the 0.6-inch tray gap (adjustable to 1.1 inches) does not affect counter placement.
