[Histonet] Oven for paraffin slide drying

[Mia Woodruff]

Hello all,

I need to purchase an oven for drying slides, on a very limited budget. I came across a "food dehydrator" which looks like an oven and has drawers which are the perfect size for the slide holders to fit into and it can reach a temperature of 60C - and it costs about 1/8 of the price of a normal oven.
Can anyone foresee any issues in me using this for drying paraffin slides? As far as I can tell there is a low air flow inside and the temp can be set up to 60 degrees so it seems perfect? Any comments?

Thanks
Mia
