Magic Mill Pro Food Dehydrator Machine | 7 XL Stainless Steel Trays | Dryer for Jerky, Dog Treats, Herb, Meat, Beef, Fruit | Keep Warm Function, Digital Timer and Temperature Control, ETL Approved

I bought this with the intention of making beef jerky for Christmas presents for the guys in my family. Previously I have using the kitchen oven which does an okay job but really doesn’t offer the lower temperature needed for the task. This unit is easy to program, fits nicely on my counter, runs quietly and the stainless steel cleans up with a damp sponge. The seven racks offer plenty of space for a couple of pounds of meat at a time. It might cost a tad more the the round plastic dehydrators but I think it’s well worth it for more efficient production Good product, good price

I never leave reviews but thought this might be helpful. We like to hunt and bought this for making jerky. I am fairly picky when it comes to kitchen equipment and had several concerns before buying but this thing is great. What I love: It is very quiet and hardly notice it when running. The SS looks nice and the metal trays are good quality. The 10 tray unit easily holds a 5 lb batch jerky with room to spare. Bottom plastic drip pan works great for easy clean up. The cooking is very uniform. I can tell no difference between top bottom or middle trays when cooking so no need to move trays around while cooking. Great airflow so works a lot faster than how we used to do it in our convection oven. We like 6:30 hrs at 167 degrees. Timer and temp controls are easy to use. I like everything about it.

I never do reviews on a product but in this case I just have to let everyone know how impressed I am with this dehydrator. It does everything I need it to do. Easy set up, set it and forget it and really easy to clean. So glad that I made this purchase.

I own a lot of kitchen appliances—stand mixers, bread & deli meat slicers, food processors, air fryers, you name it. This dehydrator is by far one of my most useful additions to my home. Our family consumes a lot of protein, and being able to make shelf-stable jerky from raw to finished in under 24hrs is AMAZING. The shelves are the perfect size to fit 4-5 very long slices of beef on each rack. I have easily processed just over 5lbs of meat in one go. This thing is FAST—much faster than I’d imagined. With the raw setting, even thicker slices of meat are beautifully crisp all the way through in under 24hrs. So far, this dehydrator has proven to be durable and efficient. Very good value for money. Runs very quietly, so much that it is not noticeable. Dries items evenly and thoroughly, have not noticed any “weak spots” that aren’t reached by the drying fans as well. I really do love this thing, and it gets very good use in my family of four. We also dry cubed beef kidneys & liver for our dogs, as well as aromatics (garlic, onion, peppers) for powders in cooking. Awesome dehydrator, highly satisfied & would recommend.

The Magic Mill Pro Food Dehydrator with 7 stainless steel trays has been an excellent addition to my kitchen. It heats evenly, runs quietly, and produces consistently great results—especially for jerky. The stainless steel trays feel sturdy and are easy to clean, and the overall build quality is solid and well thought out. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is the start/stop button. It’s very sensitive, and I’ve accidentally brushed against it more than once while checking on my jerky, which stops the cycle unexpectedly. It’s a small design flaw, but noticeable with frequent use. That said, performance-wise this dehydrator delivers exactly what it promises, and I’d still recommend it to anyone serious about dehydrating meats, fruits, or vegetables. With a slightly less sensitive control button, it would be perfect.

UPDATE: Nov 2025. Dehydrator still working fine.....No issues at all.....Now also using it to dry my 3D printer filament material.....as well as drying Jerky and Bananas, my favorites. Magic Mill MFD-7070 Dehydrator (7Tray) 1/6/23 REVIEW ***UPDATED NOV 20,2024 It's still working perfectly, the same as reported about a year ago. I've used it hundreds of times with anything and everything you can imagine, including using it to dry 3D filament for my 3D printer. All foods you can think of and some you can't. It works quickly and efficiently. I'd buy it again! Magic Mill MFD-7070 Dehydrator (7Tray) 1/6/23 REVIEW I'm a recently retired Electronics Test Engineer with over 50 years experience in the field. My digital dual Channel thermometer and thermocouples have been recently calibrated to 212F/100C. I have NOT been compensated in any way or had any contact with the manufacturer or sellers. This is an objective review of the MFD-7070 dehydrator. I looked at scores of dehydrators and selected this over the others because of it's features and reading of it's potential shortcomings in the reviews. (The fuse issue that I'll explain later). I tested the temperature swings and stability from min to max and regulation is very good. I set the dehydrator to 30 min/167F. It took 11 minutes to get up to temperature. I had 2 sensors in the dehydrator for test purpose an upper and lower. The tested temperature of HI/LO was 156.7F-178.5F cycling up and down making the AVERAGE temperature 167.5F, spot on! Wow. The AC current was as expected, it was 5.1Amps/121.2VAC and 609 watts, very consistent. About the reported thermal fuse complaints: In a few of the reviews, it is reported that an internal THERMAL fuse trips unexpectedly. Thermal fuses are designed to prevent overheating. If it trips you can go to the Magic Mill web site and order the THERMAL fuse. It's not hard to replace. They have an instruction video on how to replace it. The bottom line: It came well packed in double cartons and was well supported. It runs quiet and the controls are easy to use. The temperature control is in 9 steps not single degrees and the time is in 30 minute increments. It's appears to be a nice inexpensive dehydrator with great features that seems to work well. They recommend that you unplug it when not in use. One oddity is when you plug it into the AC outlet it shows all 8's on the display until you push any button then it displays correctly. It's like you took a power hit (like you see sometimes on your microwave display). I'd buy it again knowing the potential thermal fuse issue.

hasta ahora lo he utilizado para hacer carne seca, queda bastante bien! lo unico es que si tarda un poco y en realidad no se de cuanto sea el consumo de luz.

Excellent! I have made jerky and have dried fish in it so far. Looking forward to doing much more.

Well, I am fairly new to this concept of creating dehydrated food but I definitely did my homework. I evaluated many different machines and specifically looked at the features that were important to more seasoned veterans. The features that seem be discussed the most are flimsy plastic trays and doors that break quickly AND the sound level. Since I live in a small space (combined Living/Dining/Kitchen), the sound level was going to be the most important factor. After using this machine for a couple of batches of beef jerky, dried fruit etc, I am ecstatic with my purchase. This machine sits about 7 feet from where I watch TV and I can barely hear it. Very, very quiet, sturdy SS trays, sturdy see through plastic door, very easy to clean, very easy to use...…. works flawlessly.....so far! I would definitely recommend this product.... A1 rating.

I would like to given this a MINUS 10. Whilst it was working it was great. It has died after 2 1/2 years, which works out about £150 a year! I have contacted the company however no response. I need to try and find a way to obtain a refund as 2 1/2 years is NOT reasonable AND try and find an appliance which will be value for money and work long term! Amazon should also be able to help if the appliance has not had a decent life span. After ignoring my emails via amazon, I contacted them directly and asked how the life span of their dehydrators should be. They agreed more than 2 years. I stated how long this had worked for, and they said we only give a years warranty and to take that into consideration when buying. ...and dismissed the cost of this for years working. I will never recommend nor buy any of their products again. I suggest anyone looking to purchase any of their products work out, the cost via warranty. Would you be happy to replace the product after that time frame, due to what was paid for?
