Is DREO ChefMaker Worth Buying? Honest Review 

Some people don’t cook but it doesn’t mean they don’t know what well-cooked food tastes like. A steak, beef, salmon or whatever, is an expensive item and easily ruined during cooking. This device will cook it really well so allowing someone who doesn’t cook to get great results.

@@kaiserpaige if I reread your response you're saying it contains teflon material.

@@olaf9957 yes, the basket contains Teflon but it's PFOA-free and BPA-free according to what I've read in Dreo's group page for their CM.

@@kaiserpaige it's good that it's free of those nocive elements. Unfortunately teflon is also very bad to cook with, especially at air fryer temperatures.

​@@olaf9957 That's actually incorrect. I'm unsure where you got your info from. Teflon is safe up to 260c/500f. The max temp the Dreo is capable of heating to is a digitally / thermostatically controlled 232c/450f. Well within the safe temperature range. The biggest thing to be careful of is to make sure you don't continue to use a nonstick surface if the coating is damaged. This is the same for any nonstick coated pan. This is the downside for any nonstick coating out there. Some pans are sold, marketed as "nonstick" that aren't....Ceramic coated pans are regularly marketed as nonstick for example. However anyone who has actually owned ceramic pans knows all too well that they are NOT nonstick. A nonstick surface does not require the use of oil or butter to cook which ceramic does. And even with oil they will still stick at times. At this stage, most people know enough how to care for Teflon as its fairly odiot proof. The real problem lies in how many idiots we have in today's society. 😂 At a minimum: 1. Do not cook above safe temperatures listed by the manufacturer. 2. Do not use metal utensils. 3. Do not continue to use is coating is damaged. I personally add a few more care instructions to the care of my nonstick pans such as: 4. Avoid cleaning in the dishwasher. Even though many pans claim to be "dishwasher safe." If you go to the Teflon website it will state that this is only the case if the pan comes from a "trusted manufacturer." I personally have no list of "trusted manufacturers." Corporations are profit-driven so at a minimum you can always count on them to do what they can to cut costs. Since you cannot visually tell the quality of coating they have used IMHO it is best not to assume and just stick to hand-washing. 5. Do not use propellant based spray oils/cooking sprays such as "Pam." Even the ones that claim to be safe for all surfaces should be avoided. The oil itself is safe, it is the propellant that can break down coatings overtime. Using these common sense approaches I have rarely had to toss out pans with failed nonstick coatings. I cannot claim "never" as I did follow all this advise and still had a pan fail though it was a very, very cheap pan I purchased for the design. After it failed, it became a wall ornament instead. In retrospect, that is all I should have ever used it for. Perhaps I should add a #6? 6. Don't trust the cheapest version of anything.

@@genesishep that is when teflon is new. Once teflon is used, or the coating is scratched, wears off, it passes through the food. This is well documented online and why more and more people are cooking with teflon free ceramic, cast iron, steel or stainless skillets. Now everyone cooks the way they want but I personally did some research on the subject because I prefer to avoid dangerous cooking materials, especially when cooking for the fam'.

Keepin y'all on your toes 👀

I have owned Dreo for quite a while now and it doesn’t look like boiled beef. You can always flip it over it you would like…not a big deal.

@madisonc2410 it would be overdone then, and the few you tube videos where they show the bottom look the same.

Yeah that’s kinda long for that small steak. I wouldn’t buy this anyway tho

Just did some research, apparently sous vide'ing a steak for medium rare typically takes 1-4 hours, so compared to that, 45 mins isnt bad.

@@CU-Later this isn't really sous vided stake this is more like an air fried one.

@@logic_bot3753It is sous vide. When the sous vide stage is finished, the oven automatically changes program to sear the steak and complete the cook so you open the drawer to a seared steak, not the normal gray colour.

@@CU-LaterThis uses Delta-T sous vide. Normal sous vide is a given temperature & it raises the food to that temp. With normal sous vide, food temp isn’t monitored so the long cook times ensure the desired temp is reached. The Dreo monitors temperature via the probe so can go above normal sous vide temp to accelerate the cook but not so much that it doesn’t give edge-to-edge uniformity. No need for a bag either. The Anova Precision Oven also does Delta-T sous vide at home with a probe but the Dreo is a lot cheaper.

I think the explanation in the video is really poor hence some dumb comments. The AI aspect is missed really but that’s the point of the machine - to give someone who doesn’t really cook much incredible results. Poor video, there are many, many better ones out there explaining the machine.

Oh dear…😂 little sensitive flower here…
