Dreo 4+

The 5-star reviews are warranted. I have the humidifier and never thought that having a smart connected humidifier would be useful and everything in my house is connected. Here’s why it is: 1) Scheduling on and off in the winter saves me from having to fill the tank as often. I used to forget to turn off my old humidifier and found myself filling it every night. I can usually get 3 nights on the low setting. 2) Cleaning and filter reminders are really helpful. 3) control of the humidifier settings when my kids are sick is great. If I start hearing coughing, I turn up the humidity level without having to go in their room and possibly wake them.

The App is also fantastic in appearance, ease of use and connectivity.I’d put it best in class compared to its competition. Dreo is doing things right and I hope they continue to release more products.

If the developers are listening, please release a Home Assistant integration or a full API. As amazing as your app is for most users, I would love to be able to control and set automations outside of the app. There is a third party integration for HA, but it’s very limited.

Hi, Chris. Our tech team is now working on the Home Assistant integration. Please be patient to wait for the release. Thank you for supporting Dreo. We will continue to bring more good products and service to our customers.

Pros:
- Able to control all aspects of the humidifier via the app. I seldom use the controls on the humidifier itself.
- Able to monitor the performance of the humidifier even while you are sleeping because it produces a bar chart of the performance 24/7.
- It alerts you when the water tank is empty, when cleaning is required, and when the filter needs changing.
- It is WiFi enabled, so I receive alerts regardless of where I am. (I never miss an alert)
- I’ve only had the humidifier a few months, but so far there has been zero mineral buildup and zero mold. I attribute this to great design, buying the optional filter, and the maintenance reminders.
- Able to manage multiple devices from the app. I have just one humidifier at this time but it’s nice knowing I can network another in.

Cons:
- When using the timer function, at the end of any cycle, the humidifier shuts off rather than reverting back to the previous setting. And if you set up back to back events (one starting the same minute another ends), it gets confused.
- The humidifier beeps to acknowledge any setting change. This is a good thing. But it would be nice if we could disable the beeping when using the timer so it doesn’t wake light sleepers.

In summary, the pros far outweigh the cons and I highly recommend this product.

Hi, Path303. Thank you for supporting Dreo. We really appreciate your valued advice for our product. For the timer function, you can use the schedule function and set two timed ON routine to control the device. Then you can turn off the sound at the bottom of device's app control panel.

It looks like this may be the first review for using the app with the new ChefMaker. So far both the oven and the app work great. My only complaint is that there are limited recipes and cooking guidance on the app. There doesn’t appear to be anyway to access or add recipes from Dreo or external sources. That would be so bad if you could customize the cook history. Currently, the cook history only shows the type of cooking method used and the a place to put your own comments. That doesn’t really help if I have cooked chicken 10 ways. I have to go through each cook history event to find the one of the 10 I’d like to use. A simple fix would be the ability to edit the cook method title so that I could enter, for example, “My Air Fryer Chicken Thighs”. Better yet, add a page when I could record my own recipes. As it stands now, the app doesn’t do anything for me. I don’t need an app to turn on the ChefMaker. I can do that myself. Hopefully, there will be an update in the near future as more of the ChefMakers are shipped from the Kickstarter campaign or sold online.

Hi, Zeerod. We really appreciate your comments about ChefMaker. It will help us to improve our products. 1) The recipes are updating through the time. Our team is working on it. 2) If you want to customize your history cook, you can try the "Favorite" function in the app. You can either add it during cooking or from history and name it by your own.
