We use these every time we boil eggs; great design that works a lot better than tapping the shell with a utensil

I bought this to replace my old egg cutting device that had a bunch of points that cut a circular pattern around the egg but frequently broke more of the shell than I wanted.The cutting device works fine. It needs to be pulled back the full way before releasing and I find that stabilizing the egg with my had helps.The top of the egg rarely comes off spontaneously. I almost always have to use the tip of a knife to complete the job but the end result is clean.the spoons that come with it are a nice size and the finish makes them easy to clean.The egg cups are flimsy and hard to clean. Ill probably invest in some ceramic egg cups if I come across some I like.HInt: I started buying brown eggs because it is much easier to spot the occasional tiny big of shell that is close to the edge of the cut and might end up being scouped up when starting to eat the egg.

Great product, well designed and manufactured with quality materials.I had previously purchased another similar item but it very quickly became unusable as the weld failed. The epare is first class. Would definitely recommend for people who are heavy handed and crack eggs lol

Tardamos un poco en entender las instrucciones, y aunque vienen bien hechas con dibujos, tal vez solo añadir la explicación escrita, ya que el cortador necesita hacer succión formando un vacío entre el cortador y el cascarón y esa parte tardamos un poco en decifrarla.Excelente producto!

I could not figure out how this thing worked based on the description and the reviews, but I was sick of cutting the tops off my soft boiled eggs, which usually resulted in pieces of shell in the egg. I found that this little gadget works GREAT! So this is how the thing works: The outer rim of the cracker is somewhat sharp and scores the egg shell. By pulling back the plunger and letting go, you are basically just "tapping" the cracker onto the egg, and scoring the shell. I found it works best to do the plunger thing 2-3 times in a row without removing the egg from the cracker in between plunges. This way, it scores in the exact same place each time. After the last plunge, I twist the cracker back and forth until the shell snaps off. Super easy and you are left with a nice clean cut without lots of tiny broken egg shell pieces like you get when you cut the egg with a knife. Some reviews say to use this on the wide side of the egg, but I found it works just great on the narrow side. I used eggs from my local farmer's market, which tend to be large/extra large size.WARNING: Even tho the plunger only makes contact with the egg, and not the egg cup, it *will* shatter a breakable egg cup, even a very thick sturdy one (I found out the hard way).Now...my next challenge is to figure out what else I can do with this little gadget, because I hate having "unitaskers" in my kitchen. In this case, however, I feel an exception to that rule is well warranted.

The spring loaded egg topper! Growing up I had used one of the clamp type openers with the little jagged teeth that clenched the egg top and cracked it open and fast forward, we now have this Espare unit. I didn't really need the spoons or the holders, but they are there, and okay in quality. The holders are fair, thin steel, spot welded affairs.The main item is the spring loaded egg cracker topper. And so, after 'topping' several dozen eggs over the last few weeks. The short conclusion: It's more hit and miss.I found it best to hold the egg in a paper towel or napkin (assuming it's hot from the steamer) and with one hand gripping egg and the bell of the topper, let fly the spring mechanism and more often than not you'll end up with a decent seam.Sometimes, at this point, you can actually lift off the top of the egg entirely. More often, you're left with a crack seam and some radiating cracks, from which you can pick the top and other bits of shell off manually, leaving you with a undisturbed bottom 3/4 of the egg/shell. Either outcome is workable. You can't reliable top every egg, and don't expect to drop the egg in the egg cup and pop it open with perfect edges. Depending on several factors (egg shell strength, size, etc.) the topper sometimes just crushes the egg into the egg cup. So that's usually best avoided by using the handheld method.I'm going to buy one of the clampers with teeth as well, to see which is more reliable.
