Works great!
I got this egg cooker about a week and a half ago and have used it several times with great success. The poached eggs were great and my husband loved the Eggs Benedict I made for him -- it was really easy and I even forgot to spray the insert with Pam first (and the eggs came out ok).
My son loves the soft-boiled eggs,as do I. They are so easy to make, we have had them a lot. Because they're so hot when they're done, I flip the lid over, put it in the sink with cold/ice water, and with an oven mitt or tongs, put the eggs in the lid. The water drains slowly through the steamhole when the lid is flipped, and this cools the eggs down enough to handle but they're still nice & warm inside.
I tried making hard-boiled eggs last night, and just put them in the refrigerator when they were done so I could make egg salad this morning. While my husband hasn't had it yet, everything looked fine although the yolks were slightly greenish on the outside, which is why I'm giving...
There is a difference between boiled and steamed
I never thought I would be praising the virtues of an egg cooker until I had an egg that had been steamed. Wow, what a difference. Even cooked to the hard state, both the white and yolk are melt in your mouth soft and tender. A completely different texture than you get with boiling. The steamed eggs are also easy to peel and this cooker doesn't require piercing the shell, like others do. Once you've steam eggs, you won't ever want to go back to boiling them.
Happy with this product
After reading many reviews on 4 brands of egg cookers, I chose this one. Though, some of the reviews on this product had me sceptical of purchasing it. Such as people saying this cooker leaked water on their counter, another complaining about being struck by the steam upon lifting the lid, ect...
When I recieved the egg cooker, after opening the box, before I even unpacked the cooker, I picked up the paperwork enclosed and sat down and read the directions. I washed up the cooker and proceeded to make 7 hard boiled eggs. No water ran on my counter, No steam struck me when I removed the lid. So, I disregard the negative comments made about this egg cooker and give it 5 stars. As we learned in elementary school, Always Read The Directions!!!!!
