I have used this unit 4 times. It has been sitting in a box. I h ave no space. The dehydrator is heavy. Regular size guy can lift it just fine. Smaller guy will need help. If women are lifting, two women are needed. It is about 40lbs.
From the manifacturer:
High-capacity dehydrator is built for serious processors who don’t mess around. With 16 sq. ft. of drying space and 10 chrome-plated trays, it’s made to handle mountains of jerky, snack sticks, fruits, herbs, and more—all in one go. The patented “Hold in Place” door slides and locks so you can monitor progress without losing heat. A horizontal airflow system ensures uniform drying across every tray. 24-hour timer and adjustable temperature settings. Trays feature ¼" holes to dry even the smallest ingredients. Cleanup’s easy with removable trays and drip pan.
