Great customer service
August 30, 2022
I recently purchased a medium freeze dryer. My impulse sealer had a bit of rust on the arm attachment. I called harvest right and they are sending me out a new one after I sent photos to them. Great customer service so far! Thank you Harvest Right!

Take the plunge!

We've had our medium freeze dryer for almost a year now. No problems! We have freeze dried a wide variety of foods successfully. Love our freeze dryer!

Great product
August 30, 2022
I purchased a large unit and I just love it. I just finished my 25th batch and it has worked like a charm. I changed the oil as directed and it's off and running again. I would highly recommend the freeze dryer unit.

I enthusiastically recommend this product

I absolutely LOVE my Harvest Right! I have zero technological savvy and learned how to use it and clean it with ease. Additionally, customer support has been incredible--even being available on Saturdays to answer all my questions. I recommend this product without reservation to anyone interested in the easiest and most long-lasting food preservation system.

I had issues with my Impulse sealer

I had issues with my Impulse sealer not working, after a quick upload of a video of the issues the HR tech support person was able to get me a new one on the way. overall a good experience with the support team. the freeze dryer has been a workhorse.

Food Storage made Easy! You will not regret owning one.
August 29, 2022

We LOVE our Harvest Right Freeze Dryer! Freeze drying is Hands-Down the best way to store food! We started with yellow cheese and it is fantastic! It is crunchy like a cracker but all cheese. Delicious! Better than any cheese cracker from the store with no preservatives, dyes etc.

We have freeze dried over 50 separate items and some of these are meals. Everything from candies, meats, vegetables, herbs and fruits. It has paid for itself with how much we have been able to take from our old inventory (which will only last so many years, much less than freeze drying) and freeze dry a lot of it.

We've told everyone we know that Freeze Drying is the best way to preserve your food. We've been freeze drying for several years now and we wished we had purchased years earlier. We tried many ways to store food for the past 30 years .... from bulk in bins, to 5 gal lined buckets, to individual one gallon mylar bags, to #10 cans. The best for those was the #10 can but even they can rust over the years unless you keep them properly and we have but we still get some rust.

We've been on the blogs, Youtube, facebook, etc and have learned a lot about what to freeze dry and how to be effective at doing so. I would suggest that you take a look at several of these after your purchase as it will save you from making freeze drying errors that others already have. We learned about freeze drying Siracha sauce and how you should wear a mask and gloves because of how fine it is when it comes out of the freeze dryer. Most items are easy to do and require very little expertise but you will learn that from the experts that have been doing this for awhile. btw....the Siracha sauce hydrates beautifully.

Purchase a LARGE freeze dryer! I know, it costs so much more but you will regret not doing so as so many we have read about have. It is so worth getting the LARGE and preserving so much more food at one time. And, your return on investment will be much shorter. Check out the price of freeze dried foods you will see how this will pay for itself in a very short time.

Harvest Right Freeze Dryers are very well made, easy to operate, and they provide excellent customer service. We have had all sorts of questions and they have always provided answers in a timely manner. We are very pleased with how they have helped us over the years.

We encourage everyone that wishes to have a supply of food on hand, no matter the reason, to purchase a Harvest Right Freeze Dryer. You will not regret it!

Amazing machine
August 29, 2022
I ordered the Harvest Right because I want to preserve food for long periods and liked the reviews on this product. I've had it for over a month and it has been running almost constantly. It is larger than I had expected but works wonderfully. I love it and am so excited to try new things, especially meals. I've watched several online videos and learned a lot from them. I expect my Harvest Right to give me a long life of service and would encourage anyone wanting to preserve food for their family to get one.

Customer Service is the most important.

Delivery was a breeze and the FD was packed very well. I had sent questions to customer service and they got back the very next day. I have completed a few batches and just love this FD. I highly recommend buying one.

I love my Harvest Right freeze dryer...

I grew a garden this year and was looking for a way to store my harvest...... bought a Harvest Right freeze dryer and happy I did...... my two freezers are full of veggies and waiting for their turn in the freeze dryer.....

Missing Parts. Great Customer Service.
August 29, 2022
I had some missing parts. I was missing the hose that went from my freeze dryer to my oil pump as well as the power cord to the freeze dryer. Customer Service shipped out my hose very quickly but I haven't gotten my power cord yet since I didn't realize I was missing it at first. With that said, I love my Harvest Right Freeze Dryer. It is very well made and very solid. I can't wait to get my power cord and start my adventure.

Freeze Dryers are great for preppers

We have had our Harvest Right Freeze Dryer for 4 months now and I can truly say it is awesome!!

We have never had 1 single problem with it and its not noisy at all. The customer Service staff at harvest Right are great!

Be prepared for future costs on repairs and replacements
August 29, 2022
We have loved our harvest Right freeze dryer. We had to buy a longer vacuum hose to make it fit where we wanted to put it, but the hose was available. After 2 years we had to replace the front door because it started to crack from vacuuming. Overall, we would recommend it to anyone because it's been a really awesome money saver. It is also fun drying strange things like bread and butter pickles. :)

Internal Drain Hose
August 29, 2022

My small Harvest Right Freeze Dryer has processed approximately 12 batches flawlessly. I am very happy with the results and the ease of use.

My only issue that I have is once you have defrosted the machine and everything has drained out there is still a small amount of water in the drain hose that is located internal to the unit. It cannot be reached by hand. There is a belly in the hose that is lower than the hole that the hose goes out to the drain valve. This is clearly due to the hose being slightly too long. If this hose could be slightly shortened during the manufacturing process this would easily eliminate this problem.

It takes a little extra time and monkey business to completely remove all of the water in the hose since this observation has been discovered.

Great Product and Customer Service
August 29, 2022
Harvest Right has been wonderful to work with. I see that they were having some quality issues with the product but since purchasing my medium freeze dryer all I have wished is that I would have gotten the large one instead. I have had to deal with the dreaded vacuum issue but they accessed it quickly over the phone. I do not mind working on it myself, its actually nice being able to work on something myself this expensive especially once it is out of warranty I can do the work myself.

Don't stay on the fence!
August 29, 2022
Don't stay on the fence; buy one! We've been freeze drying for a few months now and it still blows our mind every time we complete a batch! After setting it up, everything is super simple and user friendly. The best part was camping this summer for over a week and eating eggs, ham, yogurt, beef stew, etc. every day. It felt like we were cheating because the food didn't taste like traditional camp food. Best purchase we've ever made!

HR a game changer!
August 29, 2022
I love the convenience and peace of mind having food reserves for my family. A priceless piece of insurance.

works as advertized
August 29, 2022
I have a medium HR FD for about 3 months now - I love it and use it every day. The instructions are not very clear but I called customer service before running my first batch to be sure I was doing things right. They were awesome. The phone was answered right away. The only thing I don't like is that you have to download software updates onto a thumb drive. I wish you could do software updates automatically using wi-fi.

Great product and easy to use
August 29, 2022
I’ve had my Harvest Right for a few months now. It has been great. Easy to set up and use. I had one problem trying to freeze dry garlic. It would appear to be dried and then it would clump together. I contacted support and after a software update, it worked flawlessly. Ron was very helpful through the whole process!

Freeze Dryer heaven
