NescoLT-2SG Plastic 13 1/2" Add-A-Trays, accessory, Gray

Perfect fit works as described, since I've owned the Nesco dehydrater I've made 4lbs of jerky, 5 lbs of dehydrated fruit. These trays are Awesome and work great. Easy to clean, reuse a value at this price. If you want to save money, get yourself a Nesco dehydrater and the extra trays. When you take a trip, make your own treats, you will know what you put in it and it'll be more healthy! Highly recommend these trays and the system they work with. Oh and the jerky and fruit taste great! and is so easy to do

I got a used food dehydrator years ago, and have now started using it to dry out sprouted wheat and rye. As the size of my sprout batches grew, I found myself needing additional dehydrator space. However, when I looked for additional trays I couldn't find any for my brand/model of dehydrator. So I instead picked up these trays that were of the correct size (13.5" diameter) but were made for a different dehydrator brand.While these trays arn't an exact match of my origionals (they are a different color of plastic, and also have a slightly different tray shape), they were a close enough match that they work fine in my dehydrator. As a result, I continue to buy these trays whenever I need to further expand my dehydrator space (to dry out larger and larger batches of sprouts). However, since I also need the "screens" (to keep my sprouts from fallling though the trays), I always buy these as the "Trays + Screens" bundle (vs just buying the tray by itself).

There really is a lot to say about this dehydrator....It is very easy to use, the desired temperatures are Fully adjustable to whatever temperature that you want...you are not restricted to the click, click, click thing...you can dial it right in. The handle tucks away down into the top of the unit. The heater / fan unit is extremely well built and the fan design, along with they tray system gives all levels equal flow of heat. The trays can be taken out of the holders and larger items can use that space for drying. The loudness of the fan is low (probably like a small desk fan) and is really non-irritating. The unit is very easy to clean. It is just a very good dehydrator. I have owned one other one of a different brand and it did not compare to this one. It comes with 5 racks, but I purchased 2 more and it accommodated 5 lbs of muscle meat cut into 1/8 + inch strips. The Jerky came out just fantastic. I used Hi Mountain Jerky Seasoning. I was supposed to get three packages of the Nesco brand seasoning with the unit, but only received one. Not the end of the world, but hey... I am not going to die over it. All in all, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. It has me smiling :-)

To be fair, I didn't pay as close of attention as I should have done because it's clear from the picture that these are different, but I didn't realize until I got them and went to use them.The biggest difference is that the center doesn't have the spacer part that comes up and out to keep the trays properly separated when assembled. This isn't a massive issue, unless you are drying things that absolutely NEED a specific amount of space. Another difference is that the "mesh" pattern is different as well: they actually have wider spaces between each line of the mesh. I'm sure this was to cut down on the cost of manufacturing, but it's good to keep that in mind if you're doing anything that will get pretty small when it's dried. (I dry a lot of apples and pineapples, and the pineapples get a bit iffy when I have them cut slightly smaller)The biggest reason I can't give these 5 stars is because the trays themselves are warped and there is no way to make them sit flat. The outer edge lines up fine and everything works great, but they are weirdly warped, so it's impossible to do fruit leather or any other thing that needs a flat surface, so just keep that in mind. I'm not sure if they have the original style of trays anywhere, because I really haven't looked super deep into it, but these work fine for just drying some fruit, which is what I do mostly anyway.Other than that, they work great and I, of course, will continue to use them and possibly buy some more so I can get a bit more space to do more at one time. It's great that these give that option of expansion.

I bought these extra trays for my dehydrator. They fit perfect and now I have more space to dehydrate veggies.

Fit my older dehydrator perfectly!

These were a perfect drop-in added to my existing Nesco dehydrator. They stack neatly on top of the others and the center heating and drying element goes right down in place. Now I can increase my dried fruit output. The only thing that stood out to me was that the plastic on these has a different pattern than on the trays that came with my dehydrator. This means these new ones are more noticeable. I'd rather they blend in uniformly, but there could of course be some benefit to the difference, too.

Fit perfect
