No, I'm sorry I can't. My ancient dehydrator is a Ronco or something. I don't even know the brand. It was a garage sale special I bought probably 25 years ago. Now that's old! Oh and yes, mine is electric. I can't image what features you might need to spend a great deal of money on. Basic entry level should be fine. I would make sure to get a solid tray that holds liquid so you can make things like fruit leather, or powders if you want. I make a tomato powder that I use like tomato paste by just dehydrating tomatoe slices then grinding them in my food processor. Works great! One irritating thing with mine is that I have to manually rotate my trays bottom to top about once an hour or so because otherwise the bottom tray finishes before those above it, the second from the bottom finishes next and so on. I would also get a tight screen because things tend to fall through the grid on mine. Sometimes I wish my trays were square but that honestly doesn't matter. I do occasionally use my oven on the lowest possible settings though so you have that option anytime too. I like doing that for jerky. The trick isn't just the dehydrating but also rehydrating them. It takes some practice. I find boiling water works better than say room temp or cold. Check out videos on food preservation and I'm sure you'll be able to find a reasonable priced machine that fits your needs.
Best wishes fren!
