I got my dehydrator from Tchibo, for around £35. It is wonderful for drying tomatoes, amongst many other thiongs, such as cherries, which suit my diabetic father rather well, as he is not only diabetic, but only has one kidney, which means he has to watch his potassium too - no grapes or raisins, no tomatoes no bananas etc.

It isn't as fancy as the ones you see for hundreds of pounds, but it does do the job rather well. Unfortunately, Tchibo changes its stock every few weeks, which means that they aren't currently stocking it. Fortunately, things tend to reappear again after a few months. It might be worth keeping an eye on their website (www.tchibo.co.uk), or signing up for their weekly newsletter, if you're interested...
