I'm using it now. It took 3 days for my mango slices to dry. I'm drying tomatoes now. Again, it is a bit slow. I painted my chute with black paint instead of using construction paper. Also, I lined my dehydration box with mylar. I don't have a thermometer, but I can feel the warm air coming in.... I would love to hear if you made any changes and gotten better results! I'm a missionary living on the equator. It should work here! I also made this dehydrator! I’m using it now. It took 3 days for my mango slices to dry. I’m drying tomatoes now.
