1
Every year there are hundreds of new kitchen gadgets released, and they all have completely different levels of technology.
2
Some are impressive.
3
What?
4
Some are just, well, bad.
5
Fire!
6
Sure, sure, get the fire extinguisher.
7
And some are absolutely mind-blowing.
8
Today we're gonna be testing seven different levels of kitchen technology, starting from the absolute worst to the ones you won't even believe actually exist.
9
Starting off with our level one kitchen gadget, this coffee art pen.
10
I'm gonna try to write my name.
11
Dude, that is sick, actually.
12
It is so stupid.
13
Why would you ever want this?
14
This thing is really useless.
15
Yeah.
16
For our next gadget, we have the automatic can opener.
17
Usually, you got to do it manually.
18
Hurts your hand.
19
You could get arthritis.
20
Well, this solves that problem.
21
Big fan of automatic can openers.
22
Apparently, you just place it on top and you press a button.
23
No, wait up.
24
Is that easy?
25
Releasing.
26
Boop.
27
Let's see.
28
Sometimes there's a bit of a seal.
29
Oh!
30
No way! Are you kidding me?
31
It's that easy?
32
That's it.
33
I'm impressed.
34
Our next gadget is called the auto peeler.
35
Apparently, it can take these grapes right here and peel off the skin, which...
36
That sounds impossible.
37
Oh!
38
What the hell?
39
You squirted in my ear, dude.
40
Do we take them off the vine?
41
Yeah, I take them off the vine.
42
It doesn't do all the work for you.
43
They're not peeled, okay?
44
So then we put the top on here, just like so.
45
Two options, peel and eject.
46
Give it to the master.
47
All right, Nick, do the honors of peeling.
48
Three, two, one.
49
Oh, dude, no way.
50
It looks like it's juicing them.
51
Now I'm going to click eject.
52
Okay, and it should spit up.
53
What?
54
Wait, that was really cool.
55
But look, like, it's so random.
56
Some of them got peeled way too much.
57
Yeah.
58
Some of them got peeled a good amount too much.
59
And some of them got peeled only partially.
60
So the idea is there.
61
The execution.
62
That's failed.
63
Not so much.
64
Oh, God, you broke the thing.
65
The hot air popcorn machine.
66
You're telling me that this thing is supposed to be able to pop popcorn by just blowing hot air on it?
67
Yeah, no oil needed.
68
What?
69
And it's efficient.
70
So if you want to go to like a friend's house, you take this along.
71
Apparently, you could pop popcorn.
72
If this works, I might actually buy one of these.
73
I'm serious.
74
I mean, I got some corn kernels here.
75
Pop them in.
76
Put the top on.
77
so turn it on it's really loud huh actually
78
if you look inside the popcorn kernels are spinning around already here oh nick look it's already popping what it's
79
so simple this thing's amazing like you don't even need the
80
top wait up no nick i don't i don't think you
81
need the top what was this even for oh nick we
82
need the top nick nick we need the top nick the top We need the top.
83
So this thing is an automatic dumpling press.
84
It's probably one of the more viral gadgets that we have.
85
You put the dumpling wrapper on top, stuff it with some meat.
86
Now do the honors and press it once.
87
It's not strong enough.
88
You know what?
89
It's not bad.
90
Alright.
91
Let's give it one more try.
92
It's not sealing.
93
This thing is terrible.
94
And what they all do on the internet is...
95
Our next product is a lunchbox.
96
But not any ordinary lunchbox.
97
Mmm, show me.
98
In here, I got my lunch that my beautiful wife packed me.
99
You're not married.
100
But it's been a few hours.
101
And in here, I have some cold food.
102
We got a device to fix that problem.
103
And it is the self-heating lunchbox.
104
Oh, interesting.
105
Yeah, so there's a plate down there that heats the bottom of your lunchbox.
106
How quickly?
107
We're about to find out.
108
So we're going to take this up to 120 degrees.
109
It's like jacuzzi warm.
110
All right, now we've got to wait another two.
111
Yeah, it's like, oh, lunch breaks over.
112
Okay.
113
Dude, this thing turned off, huh?
114
It's not even that warm.
115
Yeah.
116
We've been waiting here for like 30 minutes.
117
This is awful.
118
I'm done with this product.
119
Next, automatic French fry cutter.
120
The thing about this is I've used those French fry cutters where you have to push down, push like this.
121
They get stuck at the very end.
122
I hate that.
123
So this does it automatically.
124
Automatically, and you should have nothing left over.
125
I'm gonna predict that it's gonna get stuck at the end.
126
I'm gonna predict that it's not because it's new technology.
127
Potato.
128
Let's just go.
129
Oh, that's sick.
130
Now you can just put another one in.
131
One second.
132
No. Oh, no. At times it struggles, but it works.
133
Let's finish with this potato.
134
Nick, Nick, Nick, you didn't put it in.
135
Moving on, we have this indoor s'mores maker.
136
Personally, I love s'mores.
137
Oh, it's the best.
138
Summertime.
139
Yeah.
140
And it sucks because you have to be outdoors when you want to make s'mores, but this one Not anymore.
141
Yeah get your marshmallow This thing is on kind of it's heating up.
142
It takes a while smells like plastic Let's go ahead
143
and put our marshmallow on top and see if it's gonna roast it I just don't feel like it's hot enough.
144
I agree
145
You know what's a little hack
146
that I do bite off a small piece of the marshmallow
147
So then whenever you go to put it on to your graham cracker, it sticks very nicely That's not even the hack you bite off a small piece of the marshmallow like so.
148
And that exposes a sticky part right there.
149
But you can then take your chocolate, put it over the marshmallow.
150
Look, see, look, you can go all the way.
151
Yeah, but look at this.
152
Right, exactly.
153
All right.
154
I got no toasting.
155
Yeah, we've been here for like 10 minutes.
156
I'm going to go ahead and say this thing absolutely sucks.
157
Even if you hold the marshmallow to the thing.
158
It's not even that hot.
159
It starts to go, but it's not.
160
It's not.
161
Oh, Nick, Nick, Nick.
162
Maybe if you just put it on top like this, Nick.
163
Uh-oh, Pat.
164
Uh-oh.
165
Uh-oh, fire, fire.
166
Shoot, shoot, shoot.
167
Do you have the fire extinguisher?
168
Get the fire extinguisher.
169
Our next kitchen gadget is this crepe maker.
170
Usually making crepes, you need a pan that's non-stick, but this thing kind of is the reverse of a pan.
171
So go ahead and just dip it into our crepe batter here.
172
Oh, whoa.
173
Let it cook, let it cook, and then...
174
I don't think it's gonna do that.
175
That's not gonna work.
176
Give it a little shaboozy.
177
Yeah, I think so.
178
Just let gravity do its thing.
179
That was a test crepe.
180
Now we try again.
181
And peel it with your hand.
182
There you go.
183
Oh man, that looks great.
184
You are, you're like a professional crepe maker.
185
Perfect.
186
It worked.
187
For this next gadget, I got this automatic orange juicer.
188
We did it.
189
Let's go!
190
In order to get our orange juice, all you gotta do is press one button and the machine does the rest.
191
Oh, what?
192
What?
193
What?
194
No way!
195
Oh my gosh!
196
Smells like Sunday morning.
197
Oh my gosh, it smells good.
198
Go ahead and pull the lever down and let's see if we get juice.
199
Freshly squeezed orange juice.
200
After 14 oranges, we got that?
201
We need to make more.
202
Right up to the top.
203
All you.
204
Cheers.
205
I know that that's one of the best sips of orange juice you've ever had.
206
I know.
207
This is one of the best sips of orange juice I've ever had.
208
Pasta maker.
209
Okay.
210
You know, usually you need a kitchen aid to make your pasta dough, right?
211
Apparently, this thing is the only machine you need to make nice spaghetti noodles.
212
We're gonna find out right now.
213
So we're gonna twist this open.
214
I've rolled this into a nice beautiful log that should hopefully, if I've done my math right, slide perfectly into the canister.
215
Wow!
216
So this thing is gonna push the dough through.
217
Here it comes.
218
Oh!
219
What?!
220
Oh!
221
Dude, there's no way.
222
This is so sick!
223
Can I go flour?
224
More.
225
Look at that!
226
All that done with that small machine.
227
I can't believe this actually worked.
228
That is beautiful.
229
I'm impressed.
230
Next up we have this roti maker.
231
Also known as Indian bread.
232
This machine is pretty simple to use.
233
We've got some whole wheat flour.
234
Up on top we have three compartments.
235
One for your flour, one for your oil, and the other one for water.
236
Okay.
237
You don't have to measure anything out.
238
No way.
239
You just dump the ingredients in.
240
That is the coolest part.
241
Yeah.
242
Oil, water in, and then give me my whole wheat flour please.
243
We close the top and all we have to do is press start.
244
Whoa!
245
Yeah, it's happening inside the machine right now.
246
It's making the dough.
247
This is sick, right?
248
This is great!
249
This is sick.
250
Okay, I'm getting excited now.
251
It came out!
252
Did it go?
253
Woo!
254
Woo!
255
Look at that, but it worked!
256
I can't believe we got this, but the machine's not gonna give us any more.
257
It made one in about 30 minutes.
258
Not worth it.
259
Not worth it.
260
Next, we're going to be testing this nut milk maker.
261
So this thing apparently makes it for you as simple as one, two, three.
262
One.
263
Throw in about 60 grams of almond.
264
And then all we have to do is fill it up with water to the min line here.
265
Close the top.
266
Nick, go ahead and start the machine.
267
I'll just press start.
268
It's just a blender.
269
No, no, no, no, no. So it's heating it up.
270
apparently with this machine you don't need to use a strainer
271
to hold back the almond you just drink it as it
272
I am genuinely curious here this says it's gonna be going
273
for another seven minutes actually can you run outside go buy almond milk
274
and come back before it's finished he's trying like legitimately go
275
oh yeah go no no go like right now yeah go go Hurry up!
276
I think this is gonna win.
277
He's very slow.
278
He's very slow.
279
I can do this in eight, seven minutes?
280
Easy.
281
Come on.
282
Come with me.
283
Oh, do you need help?
284
I'll help you out right now.
285
I want to help you.
286
You're good?
287
Thank you guys.
288
Let's go.
289
Come on.
290
I don't even know if there's a chance he makes it. Should I call him?
291
Yeah, I'll call him.
292
How far are you?
293
We're at the market right now, Mick.
294
Oh, you're at the market still?
295
Oh, yeah.
296
Hello.
297
Oh, yeah, they do.
298
Okay, bye.
299
Alright, well.
300
You secure the bag.
301
ArtUber is here.
302
Thank you, sir.
303
It's a quick one.
304
Three minutes left on the timer.
305
I think we're almost there.
306
I think we're gonna beat them.
307
Come come on, Pat.
308
Okay, we got here.
309
Come on, man.
310
Here we go.
311
No!
312
Yes!
313
No!
314
Yes!
315
Look at the top!
316
No!
317
Look at the top!
318
It's ready.
319
It doesn't matter.
320
That's nuts.
321
I beat the nut milk maker.
322
Time for the truth.
323
Oh.
324
It's very thick.
325
Why is it so thick?
326
All right, let's try this out.
327
No. It's very hot.
328
Dude, that is disgusting.
329
Oh, dude, that is horrible.
330
No, this thing sucks.
331
This is bad.
332
Up next is this automatic bread maker.
333
The way it works, very simple.
334
You add in a little bit of water.
335
A little bit of oil.
336
Flour.
337
And of course, to make our bread rise, we need some yeast.
338
Last but not least, we'll go in with a little sprinkle of salt.
339
Close the lid.
340
Press start, and we'll be back in four hours.
341
All right, here it is, Nick.
342
Ready?
343
And here's our bread.
344
Yeah, I got you a little bread knife.
345
Let's go ahead and see.
346
Very hard.
347
Good crust.
348
Yeah, wow.
349
It smells really good.
350
Smell this.
351
It smells amazing.
352
Right?
353
Wow.
354
I'm actually pretty impressed.
355
Yeah.
356
Look at the fluffiness of it.
357
For something as simple as that, This is sick that it worked.
358
This here is the electric pizza press.
359
A lot of people don't know how to make a flat, round pizza dough.
360
This is trying to solve that problem.
361
So all we gotta do is first, obviously, plug it in.
362
Plug it in.
363
Take out your pizza dough.
364
That's a little bit large, so cut out a small piece.
365
And get me a nice little pizza dough, Nick.
366
Don't tell me what to do.
367
Thank you.
368
Now, more parchment paper on top.
369
And then place that into the electric pizza press.
370
I'm excited for this one.
371
Did you think it didn't work?
372
I thought it didn't work!
373
I thought it just went, arrr!
374
Oh my god!
375
That's kinda sick!
376
Whoa, we got totally faked out.
377
Oh!
378
What?
379
Whoa!
380
I think it crushed it a little too much.
381
I think, no, no, the opposite.
382
It didn't push it out at all.
383
It didn't really flatten it out.
384
This thing didn't work.
385
Hold on, I want to give it a fair chance.
386
Just a little bit.
387
Just enough that we just really press it up.
388
Yeah.
389
Yeah, I'm not.
390
This thing is horrible.
391
Our next device is this rotating pizza maker.
392
And this thing, basically, your oven.
393
And all you have to do is load up your favorite pizza.
394
Since there's pizza, you should tell everybody where you used to work.
395
I used to work at Domino's Pizza.
396
I used to slap pizza around.
397
I used to have a lot of fun there.
398
I really missed that job.
399
And then I became a YouTuber.
400
My first job out of college, before I became a YouTuber, instead, I was basically gonna be an undercover food inspector for McDonald's.
401
Imagine that, me an undercover food inspector at McDonald's, you whipping pizzas around at Domino's.
402
And now we're here making a frozen pizza.
403
Just plug it in and it'll just start going.
404
But Nick, this is gonna take a while, so let's come back to it.
405
Moving on, we have an indoor smokeless grill, meaning this grill right here is supposed to have no smoke when you cook, which I don't believe.
406
I don't believe at all, but you can see the sides here, This is where the fan sucks in the smoke.
407
Oh, okay.
408
So right here on the edges, the smoke's supposed to get sucked away.
409
Exactly.
410
And it's supposed to be a smokeless grill.
411
I don't believe it.
412
I think that there will be smoke right in the middle.
413
But we first have to turn on the fan.
414
Okay.
415
And on the side here is where all the smoke gets pulled in from.
416
So our grill has come up to temp.
417
Let's go ahead and add some oil.
418
And then we're going to throw the meat right on top here.
419
We're not only testing out meat, we're gonna be testing out some veggies as well.
420
So I got Nick's absolute favorite.
421
Some green peppers, mushrooms, and some zucchini.
422
So far, so good.
423
I don't see smoke.
424
Yeah, just give it a minute.
425
And of course, we got the best salt in the game.
426
It's true.
427
Osmo.
428
Absolutely delicious.
429
Dude, so far, I do not see smoke.
430
This is actually a sick device, dude.
431
Check this out.
432
I have these matches, and when I blow out the flame, if you move it down to the edge of this machine here, sucks all of that smoke away.
433
But watch what happens when you turn it off.
434
Smoke everywhere.
435
So that fan really works.
436
That's insane.
437
Our pizza is officially ready, and this thing looks fantastic.
438
Yeah, I don't know about fantastic.
439
Come on, man.
440
We didn't need an oven for it.
441
You know what?
442
I'm going to take that back.
443
Yeah.
444
You're the Domino's pizza guy.
445
I'm going to let you judge this.
446
You know, it did the job.
447
Is it perfect?
448
No. But listen, for a rotating machine, I'll take it.
449
It's not bad.
450
This machine here is called the auto stir fryer.
451
It automatically makes a stir fry for you.
452
Okay, we're going to heat this up now.
453
Nick's going to turn it up all the way.
454
All right, Nick, I think that's hot enough, Nick.
455
Go in with your eggs.
456
That's good.
457
Then you got to close the lid, and you got to tilt this forward.
458
Cool.
459
Now we just let it go until the eggs are fully cooked.
460
We're looking pretty good.
461
We're getting close to being able to put in the next thing.
462
Now we're going to toss in some more oil.
463
Vegetables.
464
Nice.
465
And then let's go in with some rice.
466
Yeah.
467
We're going to hit it with the soy sauce right now.
468
Smelling really good.
469
It also looks really good.
470
This is as close as you're going to get to working exactly as it's advertised.
471
And after about 10 minutes, our fried rice is ready.
472
Let me give this a shot.
473
All done.
474
Good.
475
It's actually pretty good. Of course.
476
It's actually really good.
477
It works.
478
Our next kitchen gadget is the smart toaster.
479
And one thing that really pisses me off, why is your face on it?
480
It's a smart toaster, and I'm really smart.
481
Fair enough.
482
So this smart toaster comes with many different options.
483
So let's tap on the screen, and look at that.
484
You could do waffles, you could do English muffin, but we're going to be doing white bread.
485
How dark do you like your bread?
486
Mmm, middle.
487
I've never seen a toaster with a screen.
488
If this works, this will blow my mind.
489
And then it tells you the progress on the front.
490
That is crazy.
491
No, so what it's doing is it's like toasting one side and it turns off the other side.
492
Oh, it doesn't pop up.
493
No, it goes like that.
494
Doesn't look like the picture at all.
495
Look at this.
496
How is this a smart toaster when it can't even, your only job is to toast.
497
I'm biased.
498
I like it because it's got my picture on it.
499
It's pretty cool that it gives you all these options, but I gotta say, a regular toaster would do just fine.
500
This is all right.
501
Sorry.
502
And in front of us, we have the posha cooking robot.
503
This thing has 600 different recipes that you could cook.
504
It does everything for you.
505
You load up your ingredients, and it basically, you press one button, and it cooks your entire meal for you.
506
I do love robots.
507
I have trained robots to cook.
508
I have cooked against robots.
509
For some reason, I love doing cooking challenges that involve robots.
510
Well, we're not challenging you today.
511
We're gonna have you go ahead and pick a recipe that you want to cook.
512
This is gonna cook for us.
513
100%.
514
That's awesome.
515
Yeah.
516
Mac and cheese.
517
Also tempting.
518
Mango sticky rice?
519
Yes.
520
That's awesome.
521
I know.
522
I'm in the mood for some creamy Tuscan shrimp.
523
We're gonna make it for two people and 27 grams of protein.
524
All right, so we have to just load up the ingredients.
525
We got water, oil, and check this out.
526
Like, we got the seasonings on top.
527
What?
528
That's the coolest part.
529
So then it switches and starts throwing it into the pot and does it for you.
530
It's absolutely amazing.
531
Yeah.
532
So go ahead and close the seasoning cabinet and let's go ahead and cook.
533
All prepped up.
534
Oh, it's giving me a final check, making sure I got all my ingredients in there.
535
Yes, we're ready to cook.
536
I want to see the first step.
537
I can't wait for this.
538
What?
539
This is insane.
540
You still feel like you're cooking.
541
Even though you're not.
542
Oh, more seasoning.
543
Yep.
544
And the live camera's insane.
545
This is exactly where we're at in the cooking process right now.
546
Oh, there goes the heavy cream.
547
It's moving along pretty quickly.
548
Yeah.
549
Now is when we're going to start to get the really nice color of the sauce.
550
Oh, here comes the shrimp.
551
There you go.
552
Oh, no. We need water.
553
Ah.
554
Throw in some water.
555
Start cooking up that shrimp.
556
And here comes the spinach.
557
So this is the spinach with the dried tomatoes.
558
There's only two minutes left and our creamy Tuscan shrimp is ready.
559
Now all we have to do is just remove the mixing handle.
560
And here it is, baby.
561
Wow.
562
Dang, look at that.
563
Good.
564
Nick, this cooks better than you.
565
This was crazy, but let's go outside because I got another AI robot for you to check out.
566
I love it.
567
All right, Nick, for our level seven tech kitchen gadget, we have here what's called the Perfecta from Sear Grills.
568
It's the first AI grilling robot in the entire world.
569
How cool is this thing?
570
Look at it.
571
It looks really, really cool.
572
Yeah, it's intense.
573
So there's a lot of things you could tinker with this.
574
By the way, they claim that it could cook a steak in 90 seconds.
575
So go ahead and press the AI Chef button right there.
576
Yeah.
577
Okay.
578
Wow.
579
We'll go medium sear.
580
We'll go medium, medium doneness, medium sear.
581
Perfect.
582
Also, you could select the quantity.
583
So it could do two steaks at once.
584
Want to do two?
585
Yeah, let's do two.
586
I got us two cuts of a beautifully seasoned rib eye steak here.
587
And then we're just going to close the top.
588
Let's go ahead and load them up into the cage and start preheating.
589
Whoa, the flame went on.
590
How sick is that?
591
So once you slide in the vertigrate, the machine basically detects that the grill is in there.
592
And it starts moving the walls in.
593
You know, it smells like a good Japanese barbecue place.
594
In a weird way, it's almost too fast.
595
Maybe because we enjoy cooking.
596
Yeah.
597
You like to sit there.
598
This is quite literally unbelievably fast, if it works.
599
Yeah, we got 10 seconds left until our steak is ready here, Nick.
600
Now it's just gonna rest.
601
So, you know, cause you know, sucking up all those juices.
602
Alright, Nick, it's finished.
603
You want me to do it?
604
Our steak is ready apparently.
605
You want me to do the honors?
606
Yeah, go ahead.
607
No way.
608
No way.
609
I'm gonna open it up.
610
I'm gonna go ahead.
611
Oh boy.
612
And cut into our steak here, Nick.
613
Ready? That feels impossible.
614
You would think that we switched out the steak.
615
Yeah, yeah, yeah, right? to it for a new steak.
616
And it's also just completely perfect top and bottom.
617
Like look at, like the level of dundness on either side is perfect.
618
The gray band on either end could not be more even.
619
That is crazy.
620
Cheers.
621
What is going on?
622
This is nuts.
623
It is perfect, perfect medium.
624
And then if you ask it to cook to medium rare, same thing.
625
It doesn't even seem possible.
626
This thing seems unreal.
627
That was very fast.
628
That's insane.
629
Really, really fast.
630
I'm so happy it worked.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
