It is nice shape and size but unfortunately just work once . I have to return it and for returning it I needed to print the label which I don’t have . So I need to ask someone to print the label for me 😞

Poached eggs have never been easier to make! It is an awesome machine. I am experimenting now with hard boiled eggs! Easy, quick, delicious! It is a perfect size for cabinet or storing.

Easy to use

Œufs parfaits !

Es fabuloso para hacer huevos poche y duros. Muy fácil de usar

I liked the small size and the parts that it came with and a buzzer when the eggs are supposed to be done when the water is evaporated...it is easy to clean, easy to use and not loud BUT didn't work for what I bought it for. I only bought it to do poached eggs because they are a pain to make otherwise. I have tried twice now and the first time they came out with whites not cooked all the way even though the yolks were a bit overcooked. I tried a second time with a little more water but by the time the whites were not runny the yolks were very well done and not runny at all. I have a pressure cooker which does hard boiled eggs so really don't need it for that...but tried it for that anyway. The (hard boiled) eggs came out medium boiled and were difficult to get the shell off...maybe because they were organic and cage free eggs, I don't know...I have no problem peeling the eggs cooked in a pressure cooker however. I won't buy eggs that are not from chickens that are not humanely treated so I don't know why others say their eggs peeled easily and mine did not. This item is not working for me AT ALL. My husband likes the poached/steamed egg whites fully cooked and yolks runny and this didn't do that. I don't think any more experiments with water amounts will change that fact. More water=hard yolks, the suggested water=not cooked whites and almost fully set yolks, and less water would just make everything not cooked. Perhaps my 6000 higher altitude is the problem...if you want hard boiled eggs just let them cook longer and it would work...but poached is a disaster.

Simple and small; classy contemporary appearance (typical Krups). Works well ... but not perfectly or quite as advertised at high altitude (which is almost always an issue when cooking, and something I was anticipating).Written after my first use:Counter-intuitively, you use less water to boil more eggs in this device, which was a surprise. OTOH, this is a welcome "feature" because—at 7000 feet above sea level—water boils at a lower temperature. This means that, if I use the "correct" amount of water (according to the measuring cup) for hard-boiled eggs, I actually get medium eggs. Still experimenting with water levels to ensure that I get the hard yolk I prefer. The good news is that, since you use less water for more eggs, this leaves room in the measuring cup to add more water to get the longer boiling time required at high altitudes. (Unless, of course, you are only boiling one egg ... but who does that?) I will update this post once I have figured out how much more it will take.Another high altitude issue is that some of the egg actually boils out of the tiny hole [that it is recommended you make] in the top of each egg. (Some only very little of the white, but some a LOT of white and yolk!) Messy!! I will have to try doing this without making the holes, and hope everything still works properly (since the venting eggs will no longer add to the steam volume in the unit) ... and that the eggs don't explode.Major upside: Boiled eggs peel **much** more easily when cooked this way! This was an unexpected bonus.Minor downside: The unit doesn't actually shut itself off when done, no matter that the water is very nearly gone and the [rather raucous] timer is buzzing.Summing up: Very likely perfect if you live at lower elevations where water actually boils at closer to the designed/engineered-for 212ºF (100ºC).

I sat on the idea of buying a dedicated egg cooker for a few months before pulling the trigger. At a mere $30 it wouldn't be much of a loss even on my small income even if the device did not work as well as the reviews claimed.Well let me be one to say: This thing is amazing.Preface: I have only used this to make HARD COOKED EGGS and that isn't going to change any time soon.Let's start with the device. It's pretty small. Smaller than I expected actually. I use large eggs and they fit no problem but jumbo sized ones might not. Come to think of it, I don't know if other sized eggs will cook differently, but I always use large and they always come out perfect.The main device is three different pieces. The heating element on the bottom, the plastic piece in the middle that holds up the eggs over the heating element, and the lid. The egg cooker works by boiling water and steaming the eggs to cook them.Along with that there is a small tube that it comes with. This tube is what you use to measure out the water needed to cook the eggs (the number of eggs changes the amount of water you use) and it is also what you use to pierce the eggs. On the bottom of this is a small pinpoint that you must pierce each egg with. The instructions say to pierce the pointier side of the egg, but reviews say to use the fatter, rounder bottom of the egg instead, which is what I have always done.The cooker itself has two settings. To the right you cook, and to the left you hold. I've never used the "to hold" setting because I always run my eggs under cold water when they are done. When set to cook, the rightward setting, the device buzzes very loudly to let you know they are done once it senses the water has run out.Once my eggs are done I remove the lid, grab the cooker by the handle and a bit of the other side (the eggs are insanely hot, but the plastic is bearable to touch) and run some cold water over them all for a couple of minutes. The eggs will still be pretty toasty but I just toss them in the fridge or eat them right then and there.Cleaning it up is quick and easy. The heating element will usually be a bit dirty for one reason or another but I've never had to do more than take a sponge to it one or two wipes and call it done. Rinse out the plastic that holds the eggs and the lid and let it all dry piece by piece. Everything still looks clean and works great.Now the actual eggs.NEW EGGS OR OLD EGGS, either way, they PEEL GREAT. It's well known that you use older eggs to boil because they peel better but with this little thing there has just been no need so far. The eggs peel great if I'm eating them while they're still warm or if they've been sitting around for a few days.And just to top it all off (and the most important part of all): They are cooked perfectly. Every single time. Just make sure you cool the eggs enough when they are done cooking so they don't KEEP cooking in their own heat.Now for the issues/downsides, which do not take away from the product at all:1) I have had... maybe 2 "weak" egg shells that have not "pierced" properly and instead just crumbled. I felt it coming either way.2) I have had one, single egg not peel well out of many. It happens, but it's very, very rare.3) The device buzzes loudly when done, but does NOT turn off. You need to be there to tend to the eggs to stop them from overcooking.
