Better Chef Electric Egg Cooker | Stainless Steel | Boil up to 7 Eggs in a Matter of Minutes | Removable Cool Touch Tray | Durable Stainless Steel Base | See-Through Lid

I LOVE this product. I only use the hard boiled egg setting. No broken eggs in the boiling water, no having to remember how long you’ve been boiling them for. Just plug in the machine and focus on other things. This is important to me. I have too many details to keep track of as it is. The eggs peel super easy so they look pretty on your salads! And cleanup is a breeze.The device actually steams the eggs inside of their own shell–it causes the eggs to separate from the shell from the inside. Hence the easy peeling.At first I was having trouble with this device, but then I figured it out. First of all, I didn’t realize I was going to have to poke holes in my eggs– so when I received the device, and it said I had to do that –I had a mental resistance to that. I don’t like touching slimy things so I was really nervous while I was learning to put the round part of the egg on the spike and push down to poke the hole. It’s like popping a baloon on purpose–kind of gives a nervous charge. Let me tell you, I have not shattered a single egg doing this. It’s fine. It works great.The other thing is the measuring cup. Again, I only do the hard boiled setting. The instructions say to cook 7 eggs, fill to the 7 line. But I thought to myself, that can’t be right. THe measuring cup numbers from 1 at the top of the cup and counts to 7 going lower on the cup. the 7 mark would be less water than the 1 mark. I just assumed I would need MORE water to cook MORE eggs. So I assumed that what the instructions actually MEANT to say, was to fill to the 1 line, which is the fuller cup. WRONG! This caused eggs to explode and messy cleanup.If you actually follow the directions and fill the water up to 7 for 7 eggs, it works perfectly. No explosions.After the timer goes off I unplug it and leave it to cool. I felt like when I “tested” an egg it was a little soft in the middle (by hard boiled egg standards). So I feel like the extra time cooling with the lid on helps make sure they do get totally cooked all the way through.Finally, to clean up, if there is a little something on the heating plate, I just put some water in that and let it set a while and soak the egg holding tray and lid in dishwater with my other dishes, then wipe them all clean. Voila, no scrubbing.Seriously, you don’t know how much work and stress it is to boil eggs on a stove until you try this thing. It will change your egg boiling life forever!
