### There are also 6 mesh tray inserts that rest on top ###
Edit: Everywhere else you write out single digits that are not measurements. Why not here? 

 

### Two fruit leather trays are included. These are used for very liquid foods, such as fruit leathers (hence the name), ###

EDIT: Fruit leather isn't liquid; as the name implies it's got a leathery consistency. I think what you mean is "very liquid ingredients, such as the syrups used to make fruit leather."

 

### drying times and even recipes. It was very helpful to me, particulary when I was a newbie dehydrator operator

EDIT: particularly [spelling]

EDIT: Add a period at the end of the sentence.

 

### Drying times vary tremendously depending on the humidity, the food's moisture content/ingredients and the size of the food particles. Most of the time my drying times are several hours more than the estimated times given in the owner's manual. I suspect that is because I have a tendency to cut bigger "diced" and "minced" food pieces than I'm supposed to. ###
Edit/Comment: Might altitude have something to do with it?

 

### Even the worst baked on goo's have melted right off ###
Edit: baked-on [with a hyphen]

EDIT: Either "goo" [and change the verb to "has"] or "gooey substances." It's not possessive.

 

### I definitwly will continue to use it a lot in the future, ###
EDIT: definitely [spelling]

 

### I like it so much that I can heartily recommend buying one to anyone who would like to dehydrate their own nutritious meals. ###
Edit: "his own meals" or "her own meals"
