I definitely found myself wondering if he has more interest than just a sponsorship. This feels like it might be owned by him or someone very close to him.
@@stevek662 yea perhaps. idk if im fully sold on the results though. They are a little too perfect. And the way they are uber upselling it, "no faults, perfect perfectness." Who knows though, besides them. Lol
@@leadgindairy3709 yep. if the end units produce these results and have a good price, then that would be great. combi ovens have been around commercially and can cook things amazingly well. usually they take commercial plugs and are extremely expensive. if this is just a retail combi oven that is 1500w, i am ok with that too.
Yeah, its just a kickstarter appliance add. First thing to check is if there's anything similar on the market with a good reputation, with an actually good brand. These Kickstarter devices are quite often a bit, sketchy.
I would love to have seen how the device handles poultry and different types of fish. Oily fish like salmon with the skin on would probably hold up fine, but I imagine flaky white fish would probably fall apart in the basket when you tried to take it out.
I actually enjoyed that commercial more than I thought I would. Maybe there should be a Guga Commercial channel where exciting cooking gadgets are tested.
@@GokkanUxxgo watsap everibodeh welcam toma labaratori wer safety is number one puriridgy and todey we gona do a steak experment with guga, add the vodka to the staik and boom! check this out pretty cool huh?
Got mine last week. Only problem was lack of crust on steaks. Just used broil feature and they helped a lot. Fish…awesome. Chicken breast…awesome. Highly recommended. Will be cooking proteins with this from now on. Super easy!
These devices are great, I hope they last a long time. I don't have Dreo because they don't ship to Europe, but I have similar equipment from a different brand that also has pressure cooking. And this function is very nice when we don't have time and want to prepare 1.3 kg of meat. Under pressure, the spices penetrate the meat better, I pour off the broth and bake it with a thermometer connected to the equipment. What more could you want? When the temperature inside reaches the set temperature, the process will end. These devices are beautiful and simple.
Amazing how the paid promotion devices always end up being the best ever. Not to mention that Kickstarter is the last place I'll ever again go to "buy or support" anything. No, thank you!
What's sad is how many people attacked me for saying this. He did the exact same thing a year ago and everyone called him out for false advertising because it was obviously a POS. The community has only gotten more gullible with time
Next video: chefmaster appliance vs normal methods (grill, sous vide, etc) would love to see how they compare to each other to see if its worth all the time and effort to use normal method, or use the appliance for convenience
I think you should have made an experiment out of this one where each type of meat was cooked in the appliance and - as a control - SV. I mean on this channel the one thing I'd expect is to actually SV something right? Other than that - great vid.
That steak is definitely medium, not the medium rare setting. I’m sure Guga’s normal SV + Searzall method crushes this. A steak with garlic butter is going to taste amazing, even a little above your preferred doneness, so I’m taking the taste test with a huge grain of salt.
Finally an answer to sous vide. Every sous vide video I watch and just think, 'there goes another single use plastic bag.' Ingredients go in a plastic bag, one hour later that same bag, having been used just once, is discarded and off to land fill. Awesome. This machine could put the nails in sous vide's wasteful, polluting coffin.
Seeing the Brown Garlic butter reminds me I used melted garlic butter to deglaze a skillet that i made philly cheese steaks with and added all that on the sandwiches which tasted AMAZING
I was surprised to see this video as I only recently bought that same Dreo Chefmaker. I have not tried the sous vide mode yet but the steaks done with the probe are great... I just ate a fabulous ribeye done in my Chefmaker.
Hey Guga, thanks for your great videos. After watching your videos, I have three requests for future videos: - Please try some other cattle breeds than wagyu and American beef. - How do you clean all your pans and other cooking ustensils so they continue to be so shiny ? - Please cook a foie gras in a terrine using sous vide. And yes I'll repeat those requests often. ;)
Very confused on how can it tell it's cooked without a probe considering different thickness of steaks... Either it has to use the probe (which was not shown), or the recipes rely on "use a xx cm thick steak" to get it right.
@@jamesgrove6371 but to be a fair representation it would be quite essential to show that you have to use the probe no? The whole advertisement was that you just "throw it in and it comes out perfect"
Wondering the same. Looked all through the links and there is no mention of price. I'd love to get one, but I can't commit without having any idea at all on price.
Technology continues to impress. They've somehow combined Sous Vide and an Air Fryer into something miraculous! I hope everything goes well with their Kickstarter but for me personally I'd need a slightly larger model to be available before I took the plunge to add something like this to my house.
Okay, so I signed up for the kickstarter because I would LOVE a product like this that makes several steps much easier to complete. I'm currently a stay-at-home dad and found cooking great protein-based food as a way to provide everyone a better diet. Plus, there's something fundamentally uplifting when eating meat like a savage. I don't give a damn about diets or any of that kind of bullshit. Just eat real, normal, decent food and you're set up for success. But having a single appliance that would let you do everything from sous vide to searing with different animals/cuts without all the extra setup/cleanup? That's a life saver.
This machine looks impressive. I love lamb I used to raise lamb, goat, and two breeds of cattle. That looks perfectly done on that lamb. This machine is looking amazing
Love the concept of this machine, thanks Guga for the video, I will do my research and probably get one. It looks amazing you rally did it justice. But I am not giving up my Sous vide or Kamado for anything!
Cleaning is surprisingly easy, unlike with regular air fryers this thing doesnt gunk up nearly as much, seems to have a better heat distribution to avoid burning the fat to charcoal. Some hot water and a sponge or the dish washer will do the trick.
They should determine who really knows steak the best. Each one of them is blindfolded and fed steaks that could be any cut, doneness, or cooking method. For each part they guess correctly they get a point, do 3 or 4 rounds and whoever gets the most points is crowned as having the sharpest pallette in Guga Foods/SVE.
I love what you said about domestic lamb I've butchered my own sheep, even, not yearling lamb, and even without hanging the meat before butchering, its some of the best meat I've ever had. I'll never eat sheep/lamb any other way again. Now I'll have to try Domestic like you're saying.
I recognize I'm just one viewer, but I'm less inclined to watch a channel that already has a lot of views/subs when an entire video is an infomercial ("Thank you to ChefMaker for sponsoring this video") If you're going to review these machines in the future, it's more credible if you buy the product and review it without any input, devices, or sponsorship from the company. You'd probably make enough money on the views to offset the money passed on the sponsorship, to be honest. It doesn't help that the methods employed aren't actually blinded (disclosing the control, disclosing the methods, etc. in advance of the testing); it's especially apparent here. If this was legitimately blinded and unsponsored, this video would be awesome. Sucks because I've been watching for years, starting with SVE.
I understand what you are saying, but, in the end, what did it do? The meats all looked cooked correctly (steak maybe a little more than med rare). They could be lying about the taste or tenderness but that would be more on the meat and seasoning than the cooking device in my opinion. Most of these types of cooking devices seem to be trying to solve a problem that is not really a problem. This one is no different if you ask me.
@@DarthNoshitam Based on a glance on their website, it's got solid foundations. It's not really revolutionary by any stretch, but it slow cooks and ends with a searing stage in a very controlled environment. I can do the same in a skillet or an oven, but you have to be informed, practiced, and you have to babysit it. I can understand the draw of this machine for people like my mom who can cook but are absent minded and burn everything, or my sister who is completely worthless at cooking in every regard.
I'm actually pretty interested. But I don't understand why they need a Kickstarter when they already seem to have a fully functional and manufactured product... Also, it would be nice to hear how easy it is to clean
Supposedly the vessel is dishwasher safe. As for having a kickstarter, works the same as seeking investors and bank loans, get a decent amount of cash to get the ball rolling on larger scale production without having to have the product ready to ship immediately.
Producing a small number of devices for review is nowhere near the same level of difficulty as setting up a proper supply chain for mass manufacturing. That requires a lot of upfront capital.
its a well estblished company already making quality heaters, fans and air fryers, their obviously using kickstarter and establshed social media food channels to generate "hype"
I got my hands on a Dreo Chefmaker and did a blind taste test of Sous Vide/pan sear vs Chefmaker overcooked everything and not much of a sear especially on the bottom. So for $360 I'll stick with Sous Vide/pansear.

I loved the concept behind this machine and trust that Guga wasn’t just trying to make it look good. I’ve been lucky with the Kickstarters I’ve backed. No complaints. I signed up for this and while I was at it I bought a couple of jars of Guga’s Rub. Hope Guga figures out how to mass produce and ship Butter of the Gods. Love that stuff, but its a pain to make. Have made many of his recipes and even Sous Vide my steaks quite easily in my dishwasher these days in Seal a Meal bags and then reverse sear them on cast iron afterwards.
An ad is an ad, what do you expect? If he didn't have sponsors he wouldn't be able to run the channel, I wonder how much it will cost since the kickstarter has no info but the machine looks great.
@Hunter Fabio I have absolutely no problem with advertisements and sponsorships in videos. I have always actively encouraged content creators to take advantage of this lucrative opportunity to make money while providing us with free entertainment. The issue here isn't the fact that it is an ad. The issue is simply that he failed to disclose the fact that they were being paid for the glowing review as they are legally and, most importantly IMHO, morally required to do. Perhaps the brief mention in the video description covers their legal obligation but I simply do not feel it excuses them morally. Very few viewers take the time to view the description and they are, undoubtedly, fully aware of that fact.
That's what I'm wondering as well, and I would not buy into this until it's past the kickstarter phase with a firm price, and being produced in mass quantities. I say let other people be the suckers taken for a ride if this thing does not make it.

i think maybe the company could let guga tune the settings of the machine abit bcos, you know guga is the best meat maker and he has more experience btw pls make more videos with this machine ,maybe do chicken
I want this machine, would take over my whole Kitchen, hopefully not too hard to obtain in Australia, not a fan of Kickstarter though, but i get why they are using it.
I actually think this could work with probes to get the algorithm right. It’s essentially a washing machine for steak. There needs to be a fat level setting and an aged setting.
The results look good but I would've liked the video to have more detail. Like... you only showed your cooking setting for the first dish, but not the other dishes. What does the water reservoir do? What is it doing when you select "sous vide flavor"? Is that just a reverse sear?
What is the actual capacity? Can you do a full roast for example? Does it do seafood or just meat? And honestly how does the result compare with your usual sous vide?
Not so fast my friend!!!How is this beast to clean to clean up? Maintenance??? Any special filters for the water that need replacement? How repairable is it?
It's probably worth noting that this device uses 1800 W of power-that corresponds to 15 A of current, the full capacity of a typical home outlet's circuit. Guga has reviewed it, too, for steak, lamb chops, and pork, and found it gives a surprisingly good sear. I suppose the 1800 W explains that!
First time I see someone mention the Watts value for countertop appliances. Interesting enough, here in Europe our air fryers or countertop ovens go up to 2400 W on standard 16A outlets because our electricity tension is 220-230V (technically, they co crank it up to 3600W but that’s an overkill). However, haven’t been able to find reviews between same US or EU models of such devices.
The question is how the production will go. I've been waiting on the Njori Tempo induction plate + sous vide circulator, food scale, and temperature probe for 2 yrs. Can Guga reach out for a prototype to get them moving?
Two years is not a reasonable amount of time to wait for something you want. In the 1800s, you could have something shipped on a sailboat from Europe and delivered on a horse-drawn wagon faster than that.
You show us your cooking skills & how good the equipment is. How about also, show us how easy it to clean it, & up keep of the equipment. Some equipments may be GOOD for cooking; but could be HARD to clean, & up keep for long term used. PLEASE SHOW US ALL OF THESE!
