I'm so glad I bought my stayfresh! I absolutely loved all the industrial parts they used to build it. Over other brands, If I'm buying something for 3k dollars, I want something that will last and is built like a tank. I don't want something that's made cheap like HR and poorly built. Plus free customer service is nice, Tim is super responsive with any questions! Highly recommended stayfresh, You get your money's worth!!!
Tim is a great guy, just bought my Mega, should arrive within 2 weeks.
Wish I would’ve known about the stay fresh three years ago when we got our Harvest Right I would’ve bought the stay fresh hands down
So true
What a great review thanks Eric, I definitely will get one of those when my HR goes completely belly up😊
Thanks Eric for the breakdown. It is refreshing to see someone puts quality over bottom line for the stock holders. Once I get my retirement off grid cabin built and my homestead operable I will consider this Freeze Dryer.
Another great video. Thanks for the update.
I would like to see a head to head comparison of this machine with the new HR FD like model.
I can do that. I have the new pro model large which would be the most comparable to this unit.
I wish they were around when I bought my Harvest Right! I have nightmares over mine, vacuum leaks water in the vacuum pump ,I can't get the mets down below 700. When you call them somebody in Tasmania answers! It has been a Great Disappointment!
So sorry to hear about the issues!!! I know the feeling
does the vacuum pump run all the time, even when its freezing?
No. When it's freezing the pump is off. It only kicks on when the drying mode starts
Thank you, Eric, for the video. Couple questions I have for you. The pump you got, how much noise is there? I am putting FD in the kitchen of a small house. Consequently, near bedrooms. The second question is why you changed tray temp to 125?
I would say it's very quiet. You can still hear it but (IMO) it's not disruptive. I only changed the temperature setting in this video to demonstrate how to change it. I usually keep my tray temps between 120f and 125f for food anyway. For milk or herbs I will generally set the temperature lower. Milk I like 110f and for herbs I will freeze dry at 90f. Candy is usually higher. 135-145f
@@2guysandacooler Thank you for your answer. Can't wait to see all that you do with the Stay Fresh.
Can you do more stay fresh videos please… fruits, ice cream etc. Thank you!
Great vid Eric, saw your review on their website as well. I had no idea about the ball valve for preventing oil mist from contaminating the food. I'm sure to go down the rabbit hole tonight doing more research on this - argggh...lol. The one shortcoming with the owner/engineer Tim answering all customer service calls is that clearly once more units are sold there won't be enough minutes in the day for him to do it all - that's just simple math. So, I hope he either has more engineers to put on the phone (which makes a pretty expensive call center because engineers deserve more pay = higher product cost), or he develops a superb training program for his call center staff. Otherwise customer service will drop, but agree with you that Harvest Right's is not a good method at all. This unit definitely is better built and will most likely be the next unit we purchase. Thanks again for being our guinea pig - lol
Funny enough I did ask him that exact question. He told me that if he ever got too busy, he would only hire qualified service technicians to answer support calls. 😊. I thought that was super cool!!
@@2guysandacooler Great to hear!
👍👍👍👍👍
I have a Harvest Right, and they are trash. I did a bunch of upgrades to my machine to make it better.
Harvest Rights customer service is terrible.
The software for the machine has nothing but bugs and is constantly needing upgraded.
