The Zelos-450 pellet grill introduces AI-driven recipe customization, but its features fall short of practical usefulness. Despite its AI ‘Vera’ tool’s limited effectiveness in creating balanced recipes, the grill excels in design and functionality. Martin Cizmar highlights its ease of assembly, modern aesthetics, and intuitive app control as standout qualities. While the temperature regulation lacks precision, the grill’s affordability and smart features make it a compelling option. Its compact size and basic controls may limit its appeal for heavy-duty cooking.
