A dehydrator 300 comprises a cavity 302 defined by multiple walls and has an open front 370 that a door 310 covers. A positioning mechanism is used to move the door between a closed and fully open position, and the positioning mechanism can stop and maintain the door at any partially open position in between. The positioning mechanism can be part of a door handle 312 that can be used to move the door with one hand. The positioning mechanism can use magnets 354, 364 and along with magnetic door tracks 352, 362 to hold the door at any desired position. The positioning mechanism can be movable between an engaged position where the magnets are connected to the door tracks, and a disengaged position where they are not connected. The dehydrator handle can include a hinge (602, fig 6) that moves the positioning mechanism between the engaged and disengaged positions. The door may be raised or lowered between the open and closed positions. A dehydrator door and a dehydrator door handle are also claimed.
