Hi, there is no mention of using this dehydrator for vegetables or fruit. Why not?

this dehydrator will do anything...problem is fruit or veggies falling thru racks, I went to craft store and bought plastic netting sheets like they use to put yarn on and make things and then lay that on the stainless steel trays and nothing falls thru!! Hope this helps. Barbara, Corvallis, Or.

I have used this dehydrator to dry apples (various types) and veggies. They both dried beautifully! I failed to mention that in my review! Again, I would highly recommend this dehydrator!

I like keeping things raw too. I would not, however, recommend this particular product for making things like raw crackers or bread, because there is not enough air flow to dry the goods. For this, and making marvelous Kale chips and all my dehydrated backpacking foods, I use an Excalibur with 9 trays. The Excalibur allows me to dehydrate at temps that keep the enzymes live. Hope this helps!

I love mine. I have only used it with frozen fruits cut up and frozen or bought frozen. I haven't tried any vegetables so I can't answer that, but as far as the fruit goes it is great. It isn't a commercial grade by any means and I am the only one using it here so it isn't getting heavy use. The motor seems strong enough for my use. I don't think it would work that well on fibrous vegetables or veggies that aren't cut up first. Hope this helps.

I don't, but I don't see why it wouldn't work for that. Just make sure you don't get it to cold and freeze the fruit.

Although I have only used it to juice my apples this fall I do plan on using it for other fruits and vegetables. The instruction manual which comes with it does list tomatoes as one of the vegetables for juicing as well as many other fruits and veggies.

The shredder blades are too small for a moist vegetables. What you need to use is the slicer blade. It has long slots on it.

I have not tried that, but I would think so. I actually did use it on apples for my dehydrator.

I have only used it for celery and it is amazing! Check the individual instructions for different vegetables.

I do not think it will work....surely you can just use a knife. It works so well for harder fruit and veg....celeriac or beetroot are a dream once grated with this 'machine'

I have not tried it myself, but I don't see why not! Try a small amount with other food to see how it will work. This is a wonderful little dehydrator although I have only used it for meat as my dog loves, loves, loves meat! Hope you enjoy it! Sorry I couldn't be more helpful for what you asked.

I can't imagine how to use a dehydrator for yogurt, but no, I haven't used it for that. It makes great jerky though

i have only used it for tomatoes. However, I think that is a great idea and would work very well.

I think it would work great honestly... I want to get a couple more. The manufacturer suggests using it for lemon juice, now I want one to spray lemon juice and water on my fruit for my kids lunches :) best of luck

Hello God bless you! to be honest with you i have not tried that since i mainly more into veggies and fruits, but i did search for you and they said you can, you can also dehydrate beef jerkey. Hope this helps and you can also google it that helps alot.

This is great to dehydrate fruits but if you add a small fan on the bottom it will speed up the process.

My wife used it with fresh fruit n didn't work, we returned it. We don't recommend it :(

I can't say that I've used it for pickles, but I love this device. I have used it on carrots (I cut 4 carrots at a time), zucchini and cucumbers. I would think the answer to your question is that you could use it for the purpose you mentioned.
