Lem Mightybite 10-Tray Plastic Dehydrator
$179.99
The Lem Mightybite 10-Tray Plastic Dehydrator is a serious workhorse for anyone serious about making jerky, dried fruits, vegetables, and other shelf-stable foods at home. Whether you're processing a season's harvest, making trail snacks for backcountry trips, or experimenting with homemade dog treats, this dehydrator gives you the capacity and control to do it right. With 11.9 square feet of drying space spread across ten trays, you can handle substantial batches without cramping your counter space.
Built around an 800-watt heating element and rear-mounted fan, the Mightybite delivers consistent results across all trays through horizontal airflow and rear venting. That means your jerky, berries, and herbs dry evenly—no hot spots, no guesswork. The digital control panel at the front lets you dial in temperatures from 95°F to 167°F in 2-degree increments and set a timer anywhere from 30 minutes to 24 hours, so you can match conditions to whatever you're drying. The transparent acrylic door swings wide open for easy tray access and lets you peek in without disrupting airflow.
The housing is made from fire-retardant polypropylene and ABS plastic, built to handle years of regular use. All ten trays are reinforced BPA-free polypropylene with ¼-inch holes—sized right for small items like blueberries and seeds without falling through. The drip tray and trays themselves are dishwasher safe, and non-slip feet protect your countertop. It's the kind of tool that pays for itself in bulk jerky and dried goods alone.
