Filament Dryers (self.3dprinting)

So tried out some PETG for the first time, and the first couple prints went really well. but I believe it's picked up quite a bit of moisture, sitting in the basement.

What's the current recommendation for a filament dryer? there was one on /r/3dprintingdeals a bit back, a Sunlu S2. is the S1 good enough, or should someone who's fairly recreational with everything spring for a S2? I see food dehydrators recommended sometimes, is there anything specific to look for in one?

I have Sunlu S1 dryer. I added fan and changed thermistor position. I tried it with PLA, PETG, ASA with good experience. S2 have two heater plates, touch display. But for me, it have filament out way in bad position.
