I have been wondering about this myself. Curious if anyone has one of these bad boys and how they work. I like easy but dont want to pull the trigger if they are no good.

I think it's worth it. Dry bud in 3 or 4 days. I did pick up a mold smell, but I think that was on me. My canopy was super bushy last harvest and I dried with layers of buds on each other. I dried everything for 3 days but think I should've gone an extra day for the colas. Others have good experiences with it.
It's not just a dehydrator. I've smoked buds from a dehydrator and its complete trash. They do come out really dry feeling tho out of the herbsnow. A cure will bring the moisture back out

3 o4 day dry and you can forget about a decent cure no matter what you do after.
Snake oil! Stay away!

I have to disagree. My buds softened up with a month cure and my bucket smells great when I open it after 2 months. I'm down to about an ounce of shake in there. Its just as good.
If you're able to control the temperature and humidity in your dry tent/room, that's probably the better route. But I don't have an area to control the drying environment. So I bought 3 of these to try a couple months ago, and I like it. Only time of the year I can get a good dry here is the winter. Also you can fit a pound in 2 units

I guess i don't see the point. If you managed to wait the months it takes to grow and flower a plant, is cutting 4 or 5 days off of your dry time really that big of a deal? I could maybe see it of you were growing for sale, but if you're growing enough for resale you'd need about a hundred of them to handle your harvest. Might also be useful if you live in a super humid climate and have trouble with bud rot i guess.

To be fair, if they made a small, cheap model (like maybe enough to dry a half ounce at a time) i might buy one just for rushing samples. But it would have to be pretty cheap.

Saw the ad and kinda chuckled because my wife invented a superfast weed drying contraption over 5 yrs ago. We never bothered applying for a patent because no matter how you do it the buds are less flavorful and less potent when dried quickly. I can see as others point out how if it was very humid for a time this could be useful to finish curing buds that were too wet for too long but there are other ways to do this using things you probably already have. Like a fan and/or dehumidifier.
So let's say you don't care and you just want some weed to smoke in a jiffy. You can snip off some bud and let it dry in the open air on a screen or in a vented cardboard box. Should be dry enough to smoke in 3-5 days depending upon ambient humidity. If you want it to dry faster place the vented box on top of a dehumidifier or in front of a fan so air circulates around the bud. Some warmish room temperature air speeds the process up a bit. She started tweaking the design by setting a cardboard box with slits for airflow cut into the sides and a placed few polished rocks inside for weight. Then she put it on top of a DVD player with a small fan blowing on it which actually works ok. After awhile we tried doing it the same way but instead on top of a dehumidifier which constantly blows out warmish air. Buds can be dried like this in 48 hrs from freshly cut to bong slide. That's essentially all this herbsnow thing does but it will not taste/be better than properly cured bud.
