Excelente. Llevo 4 años con ella y aún funcionando.

What I like most is the convenience of this egg cooker. We like poached eggs and this boils eggs perfectly and also poaches eggs perfectly. I have not tried cooking omelets in this, but perhaps I will give it a try. I can cook eggs while I prepare the other food I am serving with the eggs.I bought one of these a few years ago, two of my granddaughters liked it so much that I recently purchased them one each. They were so happy to get them.The price is excellent also,

Product is great and as described. It cooks the eggs soft, hard or medium yolk using water quantity, it beeps when the eggs are ready. The only bad experience I have with this is the measuring plastic cup that comes with it, you have to use it as it's based on the egg size, egg quantity and softness of the yolk... that cup has tiny writings and to make things more amazing, it's transparent embrossed writings on a transparent background so it's really hard to see, that measuring cup is the only thing I hate about it.

I love this thing. It works by the amount of water you put into it and cooks your eggs so perfectly. Additionally the egg shells peel off so nicely you don't even have to put them in ice water. This makes hard boiling or poaching eggs so much more convenient and I've started to eat eggs a lot more because of it. The poached eggs come out very easy with no sticking and the thing cleans off quick and easy. My only con would be that you have to stay close to it and turn it off when it beeps as it doesn't turn off automatically. Not sure what happens if you don't turn it off after it beeps because I haven't got to that point yet.. maybe one day

Es un producto bastante útil en la cocina, tiene gran versatilidad y la cocción es exacta. Las instrucciones son claras. Si bien el producto es bastante bueno, existen tres cambios respecto a versiones anteriores que no mejoraron su desempeño: la charola de los huevos con cáscara era de metal y ahora es de plástico, la medición de la cantidad de agua necesaria se hacía directamente sobre la base del aparato y ahora tiene un vaso medidor, con marcas muy difíciles de leer, que me hace pensar qué voy a hacer si pierdo el vaso y, por último, ahora suena una alarma cuando termina el proceso, una versión anterior apagaba el sistema de calentamiento; la alarma es desagradable y me pregunto que pasará cuando no pueda atenderla. En una ocasión que tardé olía un poco a quemado.

This cooker replaced a Cuisinart egg cooker I've had for years and disliked because it bubbled water out of the base onto the countertop whenever I hard cooked eggs. This Hamilton Beach cooker DOESN'T do that! There's only one small thing about it that I dislike, but first the positives:*It cooks eggs perfectly. Every morning I poach two extra-large eggs; the instructions are for large eggs and recommend adjusting the amount of water for for larger or smaller eggs. I tried adding just a bit more water the first time and found it overcooked the whites a bit; the second time (and every time since) I've added the amount of water it recommends for two large eggs and they've been PERFECT.*I have tried hard cooking eggs--following the instructions exactly--and they turned out just as I wanted without being either overcooked or undercooked. The instructions don't specify piercing the eggs before they're hard cooked, even though there is a piercing point on the bottom of the measuring cup, but I didn't take any chances and pierced my eggs before I cooked them.*I have EXTREMELY hard water, and I found crusty mineral deposits were already occurring on the base after a couple of uses. My recommendation is to use filtered water in the base, and since it has somewhat of a non-stick surface, a wipe with a a soft, wet cloth is all the clean-up that's required. Likewise, the insert for hard cooking eggs (egg holder) is very easy to clean (the Cuisinart insert was filled with small nooks and crannies that after a while NEVER came clean even in the dishwasher, and were impossible to get into even with a toothbrush). The instructions for the Hamilton Beach cooker are that the poaching tray and egg holder are top-rack dishwasher safe. The egg holder is plastic and would be fine, but the poaching tray is metal with a non-stick surface, and even the best dishwasher soaps eventually scour those surfaces to death. I found the poaching tray comes clean easily with a swish of soapy water and a quick rinse.*When eggs have finished cooking, the Hamilton Beach has a constant alert tone (as opposed to a beep) that is like a faint shriek, but it's not overly loud. I can hear it from another room even with the TV on, which I consider a good thing, but I don't find it deafening or irritating, even in close proximity.Now for the one negative caveat: the measuring cup is ridiculously difficult to read, especially after water is added, when the measurements seem to vanish because of the refraction caused by the water. The measurement gradients are lightly molded into the cup rather than printed on, which was a mistake. However, that's a very small problem that's easily overcome: I saved the measuring cup from my Cuisinart cooker, used the HB cup one time to determine how much water I needed, poured it into the Cuisinart measuring cup to see where it came to, and ever after I've used that as my guide.Other than that one small thing, I think this is a GREAT little cooker which delivers on nicely cooked eggs every time I've used it. I recommend it!

Wow! Just received this product and used for the first time. Read the instructions and reviews before use. Cooked four eggs the first time. Went with the suggestion of NOT piercing hole in top of egg. Made sure small end of egg was pointed down in tray. Measured precise water. This is where I agree with previous negative on some reviews. Water cup is extremely hard to read. But once I was able to read it I just marked with permanent marker. Used cold eggs. Poured water in center of water reservoir as instructed. Made sure lid was on and secure to base. Turn unit on and waited. When unit made sound that eggs where finished I immediately removed lid and eggs, placing them in cold water as instructed. I then refrigerated the eggs for a couple of hours. Pulled the eggs out, peeled them and had 4 perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs! I mean perfect. Did a second batch of 6 with different amount of water as required and presto same beautiful result. Don’t know why I haven’t tried one of these before. Here are a few of my guesses as to why some others my have had issues. Just my quess. Eggs not cold, egg has crack, large end of egg put down instead of up, to large or small of egg, water not measured precisely, lid not closed tightly, not removed immediately and not put in cold water. All of these are written in the instructions. Like I said the only thing in the instructions I did not follow was piercing a hole in the egg. The reason I did this is to me that would be the same as having a crack in the egg.I am so happy with this purchase(time will tell if it remains that way). And for the money can’t believe the ease of use with such results.PS daughter works as a waitress and when she came to the house and saw it she informed me that the cook where she works uses the small unit to cook hard boiled eggs for their salads because he said it’s easier the the old fashioned way.Hope this helps.

Este es un producto muy útil para todas aquellas personas que deseen prepararse un desayuno rápido antes de ir a trabajar. Por ejemplo, cuando se tiene mucha prisa uno puede poner la cantidad de huevos que necesite desayunar y encender el aparato mientras se alista. Lo bueno del producto es que tiene una alarma muy fuerte que indica cuando los huevos duros están listos. Un inconveniente del aparato es que cuando esté trabajando (si no quieres que se moje la mesa) debes poner un trapo debajo de este, ya que se filtra cierta cantidad de agua caliente (aunque esto no es algo que me moleste mucho). Quizás lo único que le haga falta a este dispositivo es que sea autómatico (que se apague solito) pero en el momento de la compra no encontré ningún modelo con esa caractaristica. En conclusión, recomiendo ampliamente este producto.

I bought a Hamilton Beach Egg Cooker in the '70's and it was fantastic. I used it regularly for over 30 years. It finally gave out. I bought a Cuisinart Egg Cooker and used it about a dozen times over the last couple of years. I happily pitched it today. It was very poorly made and very difficult to get the eggs to cook evenly each time. BTW, I am a home economist and culinary arts teacher.I saw the Hamilton Beach model and decided to order it. When I saw the box, I wondered "why so small?" Well, it sure is not the quality of the '70's model which was very sturdy and made of much better materials. BUT, it worked like a charm. We made a soft cooked and poached egg this morning and they came out perfectly. I cooked l large egg and was not sure whether to put it on soft or medium. I like the yolk soft but the white done. I added about one more line up from the setting for soft and it was just the way I like it. One note to users, you need to poke the base of the egg with the pointed end of the water measuring device. It never mentions this in the direction book even through they have built it into the product. I will add that the original had a metal point which worked much better than the plastic point. I had to tap it a littler harder. Even the Cuisinart model had that perfected. To Hamilton Beach's credit, it does mention that the size of the egg matters. All measuring is set for large eggs. If you use Medium or Jumbo or any other size you much adjust amount of water and make note to self for next time.So not a perfect product by a long shot, but it works! I wish they would make a better product--I would have been willing to pay more.
