Please post your results, when you decide. I'm using four Excaliburs;
they are high end relatively cheap plastic "home" dryers. "Commercial"
dryers I've seen mentioned are stainless steel and thousands of dollars
rather than hundreds. I am pleased with my Excaliburs.
This brings to mind a pet peeve of mine: The use of the term "sun
dried" tomatoes. I doubt that any dried tomatoes on the market are
dried in the sun.
