Home appliance brand Dreo is running a spring sale across several of its products, with the deepest cut landing on the Chefmaker Combi Fryer — a device that combines air frying, steam-assisted combi cooking, and app-controlled probe cooking in a single unit.
The Chefmaker drops from $359 to $200 — a 44 percent discount — on Dreo‘s website using the code SPCHEFMAKER at checkout. According to the report, this is the lowest price the device has reached. The combi function aerates the oven with steam to retain moisture in larger cuts of meat, while the probe cook mode slowly brings meat to a target temperature before finishing with high heat at around 500 degrees Fahrenheit. The same report notes that the probe-assisted cook holds temperature precisely, though the non-probe “classic” air fry and toaster oven modes can deviate from the set temperature by approximately 20 degrees.
Why the Price Dropped
The timing of the discount is not incidental. Dreo has signaled plans to release the Chefmaker 2, a successor device described as AI-guided and somewhat simplified relative to the current model. The steep markdown on the original is consistent with the company preparing to clear inventory ahead of that launch. Buyers unconcerned with AI-assisted recipes and comfortable with the current feature set get a capable machine at a substantially reduced entry point.
The sale extends beyond the Chefmaker. The Dreo Wall-Mounted Heater 517S — described as a smart bathroom heater that can be activated remotely before entering a cold room — is discounted with code SPRING15 for 15 percent off. Separately, a bundle pairing the 519 tower fan and the 511S table fan is available with code SPRING20. The 519 tower fan uses a brushless motor, a design choice associated with longer operational life.
What the Devices Are
The breadth of the sale reflects Dreo‘s product footprint across kitchen and climate categories. The fans and heaters covered in the promotion have previously appeared on recommended lists for those product types, with the 517S heater and 519 fan both cited by name in prior coverage. The Chefmaker was tested across proteins including ribeye steak, roast chicken, and pork chop, with the combi and probe functions producing consistent internal temperatures and retained moisture — performance that air-only cooking typically cannot replicate on large cuts.
All three promotions require manual code entry on Dreo‘s website and are tied to the brand’s designated spring sale window.
