Our story

Trusted by families for over 40 years

Designed in New Zealand by Hydraflow Industries in 1985 for real produce, real kitchens and real seasons. For four decades, families have been drying orchard fruit, making fruit leather, and sending kids to school with snacks they actually made themselves. Some are on their fourth Ezidri. That’s what happens when a product is built to last.

THE EZIDRI DIFFERENCE

Built to grow. Built to last.

Most dehydrators lock you in one size, fixed capacity, and hot air from the bottom up that forces tray rotation. Ezidri does both differently.
🔄

Expands from 5 to 30 trays

Start small, grow as your habit grows on the same base unit you already own.

✓

No tray rotation ever

Unique horizontal airflow reaches every tray evenly. Load it, set the timer, walk away.

'Set for another 30+ years of drying!'

94% five-star reviews — independently collected and verified through Judge.me from Ezidri buyers across all our markets.

'Purchased after trying 2 other types of dehydrators. One had the engine go. The other the shelves broke due to brittleness. This product is solid.'

'I have been running my new Ezidri just about non-stop to help take care of our seasonal excess of plums and apples. Fruit roll-ups are a winner!'

David Rusk, Hamilton

'Excellent machine. Easy to use. Well insulated, so more economical on power. Easy to clean. Quieter than some machines I've seen.'

Mike Fox
Verified FD1000 buyer

'Used up all my Granny Smith apples and dried them in the dehydrator. They are sweet and sour at the same time. Really delicious and happy I bought the Ezidri Snackmaker.'

Questions answered

Common questions

Is the Ezidri BPA-free and food-safe?

Yes. All Ezidri trays, mesh sheets, and solid sheets are BPA-free, food-safe plastics — ABS trays and polypropylene sheets, tested to EU food-contact standards. The units are CE marked and tested to EN/IEC 60335-2-9 international safety standards.

What's the difference between the FD500 and FD1000?

The FD500 is 500W, expands to 15 trays, and has a 24-hour timer. The FD1000 is 1000W, expands to 30 trays, has a 48-hour timer, and includes an anti-rehydration function. FD1000 suits bigger batches. FD500 suits everyday snacks and smaller households.

What can I dehydrate?

Fruit, vegetables, herbs, meat (jerky, biltong), fish, meals, yoghurt, fruit leather, pet treats, and more. A full drying guide is included with every purchase.

How much does it cost to run?

The FD1000 uses about 0.5 kWh per hour and the FD500 about 0.25 kWh per hour. A 10-hour session uses roughly 5 kWh (FD1000) or 2.5 kWh (FD500) — apply your own electricity tariff to work out the cost.
