Absolutely amazing machine. I have been in a professional kitchen for about 20 years and this little machine makes cooking a breeze at home. My kids have started using it to make dinner with too. They love it as well. Wifi makes it easy to know when things are done and ready to plate.
We cooked this tritip sous vide and it came out perfect. We also air fry baby back ribs. Yum. We have purchased 3 of these and it is our go to for wesding gifts. Best purchases ever.
My first time cooking my lamb chops in DREO, I was kind of afraid at the beginning, had a hard time placing the probe in the right place, but finally got it. My lamb chops for some reason didn’t crisp much. I set the broiler and let them crisp some more. Final result delicious. In the overall, I need to practice more. I am very happy with my purchase.
I hope this saves some time for you! ?
After my previous air fryer got recalled because of a fire hazard, I decided to upgrade. It had been 3 years since the last upgrade, and I did a lot of research before buying the Dreo. I was a bit hesitant about the price, but I’m glad I did.
Wow, this little appliance is a kitchen superhero! It can cook proteins to perfection, and it can handle even the most complex tasks. The app recipes are top-notch and super easy for any level cook. ??
The machine is quiet and doesn’t get too hot, which is a plus. If there was a “commercial grade” unit from Dreo, I would easily pay $500+ for it.
I’m giving this 4 stars because it’s not perfect, but it’s pretty damn close. We’ll have to see if the app support survives as long as the appliance does.
Used this the first day. Followed directions and did a pre empty burn to get any new car smells out. Then cooked a ribeye for myself and later filet for my daughter. My steak was one of the best I had in years. Buying on for my dad for Christmas.
All you have to do is set it and forget it, but not totally, if you know what I mean, You gotta eat. I love to ease this Dreo brings to my life. You can easily control you cooking from the app and get updates when it is done straight to your computer home. I get a nice color on the top of my salmon and steak. You can always cook it to your liking. I been using it everyday even to toast bread.
I use parchment paper in my for easy clean up.
It’s a good machine but, for the price could be better. The temperature control is not so great you may have to cook a little bit longer after using chef mode feature and also for the chef mode when cooking steaks don’t expect to find all the steak varieties, some steak choices are not there. But, I still will recommend this with the available updates that’s included over WiFi.
I’ve been using the Dreo cooker primarily for steaks, and let me tell you—it delivers perfect results every time! Once you figure out the right mode, it’s smooth sailing from there. I’ve cooked everything from high-end ribeyes to bone-in Wagyu, and the results are always wonderful. It’s also a breeze to use and easy to clean, which is a huge plus.
The cooker even comes with a phone app that lets you monitor and control everything remotely, which adds so much convenience. I’ve cooked not only steaks but also bacon, sausage, and more, and everything comes out great.
All around, I love this cooker and couldn’t be happier with how it performs!
I was hesitant to spend this much money on an air fryer. My last was from Costco for $69.00 and lasted over 3 years. I’m glad I did, the Chefmaker gives my outside grill a run for its money! I haven’t made anything but steaks so far but they have been perfect every time. So glad I bought this.
I would give this 10 stars if I could. As a truck driver this changed my life. I eat a carnivore diet and now I get perfectly cooked steaks every single day, for a fraction of the cost and time that I would normally spend
Just wanna say Im impressed about this air fryer it literally cooked me a ribeye steak to perfect temp in 10min no guessing and flipping around just set it and leave it, cleaning is also a breeze no splatter just the base where its cooking not like if you use oven to broil theres gonna be a lot of splatters inside the oven that you need to clean up
I am so happy with this product. Ive cooked steaks, salmon filets from frozen state and turkey burgers. Super easy to use and I cannot believe that its like grilling out but way easier. The taste and tenderness is just amazing
The Chefmaster takes the guess work out of cooking proteins. My husband doesn’t usually comment on any of the other fryers that I have bought in the past, but he is very impressed with the Dreo.
Most amazing appliance I have ever owned - and I’m a kitchen minimalist! I am currently living with out a kitchen as a family of 5 - this air fryer and instant pot can do it all! Perfect food every single time! Created roasted veggies comparable to my old high end convention oven! Absolutely amazing ! I’m obsessed - could not be happier !
The Chef Maker has leveled up my cooking game at home, I was pleasantly surprised on how good it really is. I was watching videos on the web before deciding to make the purchase and I don't know why I waited so long for it! Get yours ASAP!
My air fryer arrived in a timely fashion, well packaged.
I like the control panel, it is user friendly, and it has so many cooking options. I am looking forward to trying all of them.
This is my fourth Dreo Chefmaker that I have purchased. I love this machine and both my boys, who are excellent cooks, love this machine also. It has been a great gift to give, and it gets daily use.
Gosh, I love this thing. It's a great quality machine with a decent capacity. It is a little large on my counter but I like having it out and accessible. It cleans up really easily and doesn't have a weird plastic smell when used. I like that I can adjust the temp and cook time and there are a ton of different functions to cook whatever you need. It even has an app with recipes that you can send directly to the fryer. I have used it for all sorts of frozen foods, hot dogs, baked potatoes, toast, grilled cheese sandwiches, and reheating leftovers.
The absolute best kitchen appliance I have. I have ordered and tasted some fantastic steaks in my time but the first ribeye steak that I made in my Chefmaker was as good if not better than any I've ever tasted. I'd give 6 stars if I could. You will not regret purchasing this phenomenal air fryer (and more)
So far this is a great purchase and I am still learning lots of great ways to use this appliance. I did quite a bit of research and stumbled on the Dreo Air Fryer and did comparisons and lots of reviews and am very happy I did. The design to use AI and the temperature probe were differences that swung my decision and I think the Dreo will become an important part of our cooking experiences in our home.
What an incredible appliance. I cannot say enough good things about this air fryer/kitchen assistant. This thing is packed with all kinds of cool, very helpful features. The most impressing thing to me is how well it can cook a steak while making it easier than any other method out there. In addition to all of the cooking assistance you could ask for, it also does the basics extremely well like air frying and toasting/roasting. Cleanup is a breeze with the nonstick surface and its a great size whether you want to leave it on your countertop or store away when not in use. Could not recommend this product anymore.
Absolutely amazing. I use it everyday. I love cooking, and this provides really great results. You have complete control over the level you want to cook at. One of the few gadgets I use daily.
