DREO - ChefMaker Combi Fryer

If you are serious about "best quality air fryer on the market" and price is no object, you should take a look at the Dreo ChefMaker.

Yo I’ve owned one for about 6 months. It’s cool, but would not buy it again. The best feature is its probe thermometer that’s inside of it, but there are much cheaper air fryers that do the same thing, I’m sure. Its big gimmick, the water spraying thing, is pretty hit and miss. Sometimes it makes excellent proteins like chicken breasts and steak, other times it bugs out and nothing happens to your food for like an hour. And using that feature doubles or triples cooking time so I never find myself using it at all. In summary I’m sure you could find an air fryer that is 95% as good for half the price Edit: whoever downvoted my comment, frick you

I picked up a Dreo Chefmaker. I really like it. Cook everything from steak to breakfast sausage to fries, etc. It's got a temperature probe and some really nice features built into the software.

buy a Dreo ChefMaker, it’ll change your life 

I've been using this thing since the day it came out. I was in the first wave of Kickstarter backers to get mine. I use it more than I use my oven, and if it ever breaks I ***am*** buying another one.

I’ve had the dreo with the probe for over a year! It legit makes the best steak and burgers I’ve ever had!!!! This air fryer is underrated! Steaks taste better than outback or longhorns! I stg! 

Haven't seen what they put as the best one but the one I have is [Dreo Chefmaker](https://www.amazon.com/Dreo-ChefMaker-Atomizer-professional-cooking/dp/B0C5JHKGFP/) and I absolutely love it.

It really is in terms of how this is "scored" on the list. For example I've owned Cosori, Ninja and now a Dreo. My current Air Fryer doesn't even rank on the list but I personally like it the best. But that said, due to it being a more expensive unit and a lesser known brand than Cosori, ninja and, the like it doesn't appear as much on Reddit.

I'd buy it again for $199 in a heartbeat. Check my most recent post on the turkey breast I made in it.

I haven't done cake, but I have done pizookies and bread, overall not entirely recommended though and they need more effort and care to not burn than just sticking it in the oven. Nofareally faster because of this too.

I agree I have two high end version of each type Dreo Chefmaker for my basket air fry needs (and combi fry) it may not have the space but the power is there. Wont get better chicken from a different one. Ninja DT250 series toaster oven style for my larger items. It 100% doesnt work the same as the basket BUT it does some things SO much better. Each has its use and cooks exclusively different things.

My effortless wings actually come from my basket dreo chefmaker. All I do is throw them in after standard prep with seasoning and come back in whenever it is done.i dont even know the actual timer or temp for it since it has a chicken wing mode.

I run two air fryers for different purposes. A basket style (Dreo Chefmaker) and a Ninja i forget the model of toaster oven style for larger items and baking. Forget the oven entirely!

How has no one said dreo. Its unreal . Pricey . But cooks better then all the others imo . 450 degrees is awesome

I had a Ninja Foodi, loved it and the surface area you have with it, it was great for reheating pizza. It doesn't crisp up the food quite as well as the basket style ones, but good enough. The fan on mine got clogged with grease after a month or two, and it is essentially impossible to clean. I cleaned it up as well as I could and used it another couple years, now I have a Dreo and the Foodi lives in the pantry until I need to reheat pizza. The Dreo is excellent. 10/10 as an air fryer, and the smart probe cooking actually works great, except I think mine had a software problem that would turn a 45 minute cook into 3 hours at random. A warranty replacement comes soon. The original works perfectly as a basic air fryer, so I'll give it to a friend. Ninja conventional air fryers I rate 1/10. I do not understand how they can not have a window so you know when the food is ready. We have one in our office kitchen, and unless you open it constantly, it is a total gamble how your food comes out. I have had a couple items that I followed the packaging directions and they came out burnt black and smoking. It's too bad because when you get the timing right, the Ninja does a nice job, just as good as the Dreo and better than the Foodi. Also, I don't understand why they have to preheat for longer than it takes to cool the food. An item that I know takes 4 minutes at 400 in my Dreo takes 4 minutes at 400 in the Ninja, but the Dreo requires no preheating and the Ninja needs a few minutes of preheating time. If the food comes out the same from both air fryers, why is the Ninja taking all that preheating time?
