Amazon Prime Day Deal: My Favorite All-in-One Kitchen Appliance Is a Steal at Just $50

I estimate that I cook at home about 85% of the time. This means I've tried a ton of kitchen appliances, from revolutionary to completely useless. Luckily, the Chefman Everything Maker is pretty darn smart—and it has become my favorite tool that I use almost daily.

Right now for Prime Dayyou can get 17% discount on Everything Maker. The regular list price of $60 on Chefman's website already seems like a bargain compared to what this appliance can do, which is, well, everything. Currently, concrete and Midnight Color is only $50 on Amazon.which is truly theft. That's why it has taken a permanent place on my counter.

How I use Everything Maker

I've made crispy hash browns, gooey grilled cheese, breakfast sandwiches, and perfectly golden pancakes, all in one compact machine. And it's not just a breakfast tool. I've used it for late night quesadillas and quick dinners more times than I can count over the past few weeks.

The design is intuitive, easy to store upright (though I rarely put it away) and surprisingly durable. There are no unnecessary bells and whistles here. It's just a well made, easy to use device that always works.

The Chefman Everything Maker lives up to its name by offering an all-in-one, all-in-one cooking solution that fits easily on your countertop. With a 12-inch non-stick cooking surface and a slim, compact design, it's well suited for small kitchens or those looking to simplify meal prep. I find this especially useful for cooking breakfast foods like eggs and pancakes with the lid open and then switching to grilled sandwiches or quesadillas with the lid closed.

It also heats quickly and evenly, reaching temperatures up to 428 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius), which is hot enough for searing, sautéing, or even light grilling. Over the weekend I made a summer flatbread (with burrata, pesto and prosciutto) and used the Everything Maker to lightly roast some peaches and add them as a topping. They came out perfect.

Cleaning is another strong point. The non-stick surface wipes clean easily after use—no scrubbing or soaking required—making it a reliable companion for quick weeknight lunches.

The Everything Maker also comes with a digital cookbook with 16 chef-created recipes, which I used as inspiration to try new dishes outside of my usual routine. While the Everything Maker doesn't replace every kitchen tool, it handles a surprising variety of tasks in a compact size.

My buying advice

Whether you're shopping for gifts or just want to level up your cooking game, the Chefman Everything Maker is a surprisingly versatile little appliance. Even at full price, it offers solid value and provides great convenience, but at just $50, you really can't beat the price.

Although the Everything Maker is not currently sold on the Chefman website, it is still worth checking out. Shefman's website from time to time. They regularly hold promotions (in fact, my favorite blender is discount right now).
