Thats not to mention the seven additional cooking functions that most air fryers have.
It also looks fantastic, making it the prettiest air fryer Ive seen.
It is on the expensive side, but man oh man, its worth every penny.

This is perhaps my favorite kitchen appliance by far.
Its also a near-perfect product.
Its also effortless to use, thanks in large part to its very useful app.
I say near-perfect because there is the smaller matter of the price, which isn’t small.
However, I would say that its worth every penny and then some.
If youre thinking ofbuying an air fryer, you wont regret getting this one.
Unfortunately for Australian customers, however, it doesnt look like its available there at the time of writing.
It is, however, readily available in the US and the UK.
Thank goodness for its backlighting.

The ChefMaker is taller than many air fryers of the same capacity, and slightly heavier as well.
Just like regular air fryers, it has its hot air vent in the back.
So be sure youre leaving enough space for it to ‘breathe.’

The inside of the appliance can be cleaned the usual way.
Its not just versatility and effortless cooking that the ChefMaker offers.
The water tank does play a massive role when using the cookers Chef and Probe modes, however.
With the help of the ChefMaker, however, my fourth steak came out steakhouse-worthy.
This never happened with the similar-capacity air fryers Ive tested.
I did, however, find that turning on my range hood helps minimize that issue.
Should I buy the Dreo ChefMaker?
It has two other incredibly effective cook modes plus seven additional cooking functions.
However, it can do so much more, and is a great value for money.
Or, better yet, save up until you have enough to get it without blowing your monthly budget.
You’ll have the ability to cook two different food types for two different durations.
I also made sure to test all three cooking modes available, documenting my process and the results.
