- Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2023Color: SilverSize: 6LVerified PurchaseI wasn't sure this appliance would live up to its claims or its name, but the ChefMaker proved me wrong with almost every dish I cooked with it. I tried a pork tenderloin first using chef mode and it was amazing, all tender and juicy with a succulent crust. It's no joke that this machine cooks like a chef, turning the heat up and down and even spraying water all by itself to keep the meat perfect.
- Expensive but worth it
It might be a bit more expensive than a regular air fryer but it does so much more, the presets are based on chef recipes and there are about 40+ ingredients to choose from. The probe cook mode was perfect for tweaking doneness and trying some exotic cuts of meat without messing it up, and the traditional broil, air fry, reheat, bake, roast, toast, defrost, and dehydrate modes just make this appliance one of the most versatile I've had.
The app from Dreo also adds a bunch more recipes to try, they are simple, less time-consuming, and come with step-by-step videos so it's impossible to get it wrong.
- Easy to clean
The fact that this machine simplifies it all to just one appliance really reduces the clutter in our kitchen. Besides most parts are dishwasher-safe (except for the base and probe). It just takes us about 10 min to get everything nice and clean.
- Great Built Quality and Design
The overall build of the product is on another level, it doesn't look or feel plastic and cheap like other fryers do and its design is full of surprises like the transparent glass window and light that lets you take a look at your food while it's cooking, the glass and the machine itself doesn't get heat up while cooking which is nice.
Overall this machine is absolutely perfect for anyone looking for great quality food without all the hassles that often come with it. It definitely has a learning curve if you are used to the more straightforward air fryers, but it doesn't take a lot of effort to start making chef-quality meals, plus, the Chef Mode really makes it hard to get cooking wrong.

1. Pork Shoulder Perfection with ChefMode and Meat Probe
I was skeptical at first when trying ChefMode, even though Dreo says it automates all the cooking process, I didn't want to leave the machine on its own. But the ChefMaker really delivered on its promise. I only had to insert the probe, select "Pork Shoulder" and the machine did it all, just like magic. The pork was absolutely amazing, just in the perfect spot between tender and flavorful, it totally blew my mind.
2. Never Had a Fish Like This Before.
I'm definitely having more seafood from now on, I love how the ChefMaker cleverly uses water spraying to roast the salmon to perfection, keeping it moist and tender on the inside, and making the skin crisp and delicious on the outside. I was never able to achieve this using a frying pan and oven by myself.
3. It's A Dream Come True for Meat Lovers
When making steaks with the ChefMaker you can not only choose doneness but also pick between classic and sous-vide. And no matter how you want it, it cooks it perfectly from edge-to-edge, only comparable with something you'll get at the finest steakhouses.
4. Interactive Color Display for Cooking Tips and Tricks
The color display on the ChefMaker Smart Air Fryer isn't just for show; it gives you cooking tips and tricks. It's like having a seasoned chef right in your kitchen, guiding you every step of the way to get impeccable cooking results.
5. Its Software is Constantly Improving
When they say smart, they really mean it with this machine. It has already received a couple of upgrades since I bought it, adding new recipes and programs, the pork shoulder was one of the newest and I can't wait to try what's coming in the next updates.
6. Exceptional Community and Service
What's more impressive is the community behind this product, they are everywhere on social media, sharing recipes, tricks, and feedback on how to get the most out of the appliance. I even had the unique opportunity to speak with a design engineer from Dreo within the community and share my suggestions, which they will consider in future updates.
7. Dislike
The only issue I encountered was the learning curve; it takes a bit of time to master all the features. In particular, they don't allow me to control the cooking parameters when the unit is doing its job. When cooking a very small piece of meat, it tends to overcook a bit. However, with the incredible results it offers and the time I saved, I found it more than worthwhile.
Bottom line, the ChefMaker is a truly innovative appliance that has taken my cooking game to the next level. It delivers outstanding results and a level of customer service that is unparalleled. If you're looking for ways to improve your cooking, ChefMaker is a no-brainer.
5.0 out of 5 starsI recently added this Smart Air Fryer (they called it "combi fryer") to my kitchen, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations in every way. When compared to my original air fryer, this new addition showcases a range of exceptional features that have totally changed the way I cook.Culinary Innovation at Its Best - Unmatched Flavor and Exceptional Customer Service!

- Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2023Color: SilverSize: 6LVerified PurchaseA friend recommended this and we needed a new air fryer that was not too big. Everything about this DREO is crazy good. The Teflon coating is amazing and it cleans up so easily. The Chef Mode is basically like AI cooking with probe. It is as close to Sous Vide cooking you can get with very little effort. I'm a cook. I'm a griller and BBQ guys. I cook the best steak ever. This thing in Chef Mode cooked the best damn Ribeye steak I've cooked in a long time. It does need to be a thicker cut of meat though to really work well. It takes a little extra time, BUT you don't do a thing except season your meat, put the probe in and it cooks it to perfection while you do whatever else you want. It's only good for a small family or single people this thing will save you a fortune in time and not wasting food. I've had it for 2 months and I still haven't gotten through all the bells and whistles. Yes, the app for your phone is really good. You can use it to go through all the menus and it's faster than the touch screen plus gives you an expected time of finish and lets you know when your food is done. It's pricey, but in my opinion worth it. I used some credits I had which helped, but I would go back and pay full price for it. Vegetables and Potatoes are cooked to perfection. It even has a setting for mushrooms and it nailed it! This thing has so many permutations of settings it would make a statistician dizzy. I plan to try them all. No, did not get paid anything to say this and I really bought one. If you are on the fence, don't be. It has a money back guarantee. But I guarantee if you take the time to learn how to use it and really use it, you won't be sending it back. Kali Oreksi!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well built and holds the heat
Color: SilverSize: 6LVerified PurchaseHaven't really tested it all yet. It cooks crispy bacon and French fries. Temperature goes up to 450 F. Easy to connect to the app where you will find many good recipes. The oven can be turned on or off from the app. Your receipe cooking settings can be sent to the oven right from the app so that you can start cooking.

5.0 out of 5 stars As great as everyone says!
Color: SilverSize: 6LVerified PurchaseI bought this after my old air fryer bit the dust - and due to using it every day decided to go for a high-end option. I do not regret it at all. The Dreo cooks way better than my old air fryer and is easily at the same level as the high end Ninja air fryers - but with the addition of the smart app to monitor progress and load recipes.
I have found their customer service to be superb with quick responses to any queries I've had.
I hghly recommend this combi fryer - it's a real stand out appliance. A few friends have now also bought them and agree they are great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than most
Color: SilverSize: 6LVerified PurchaseI just received this last week, and have been using it for chicken wings, burgers, and ribeye steaks. It's better than the phillips air fryer I have, the steak came out perfectly medium ( it has medium rare, medium, medium well and well done, unlike some of the others that were reviewed ) Temperature goes to 450 F unlike some other persons review, and food came out better than in the air fryer. I tested both the ribeye and chicken wings in both the air fryer and the Dreo, at the same time. it was more moist, and more crispy, in the Dreo if that's possible. For $499 I could get by with just my old air fryer, but for $399 Black Friday, it was a steal of a deal. If your not happy with your air fryer, this should be your next choice, and if you are looking for an air fryer for the first time, this would be exceptional for you. So far I love it, I'd just wait for the boxing day sales, $500 is a bit steep!
Edit: Six months later it's still the best cooking device I have owned, however I feel a lot of that is because of the cooking probe, but when I went to Dreo site to purchase a backup probe they were all sold out. That's not a good sign for me, also the chefmaker was all sold out, did they stop making it ? Now I'm worried about warranty in the future. What's going on Dreo?
