" ... Works great for hard boiled eggs but difficult to clean if an egg breaks and cooks. ... "
" ... Raw to done in mere minutes with hardly any clean up. ... "
" ... The water burned a little in the bottom and left some blackened marks, but I feel like it'll be fairly easy to clean out when I get around to it. ... "
" ... Easy to clean, I used distilled water and it still left "burn spots" on the metal and egg tray. ... "
" ... Clean up was so easy (another reviewer said cream of tartar on the metal plate and some water to remove any dark stains and it worked like a charm) and it’s so compact. ... "

" ... It uses almost no water and after 12 minutes (the time it takes when boiling the full 7 eggs) you have perfect eggs that are also easy to peel. ... "
" ... So much easier then waiting for water to boil. ... "
" ... Just follow the instructions I didn't use distilled water I used regular water from the tap and it was fine. ... "
" ... Followed instructions and used proper amount of water. ... "
" ... I fill the water line up to the next line in order to make sure they boil long enough. ... "
" ... I put a little more water than the recommended amount and it works perfectly every single time. ... "
" ... So what I do is fill the measuring cup all the way with water and I let the eggs sit in the cooker for a little after it's done. ... "
" ... I added more water the second time and it came out better. ... "

" ... If you like it soft you can make it soft. ... "
" ... It's not heavy duty by no means, but nicely made for the price. ... "
" ... Cooks 3 different ways, hard, medium and soft boiled. ... "
" ... As mentioned in previous reviews, make sure to pierce the top of the wider end of the egg rather than the narrow end, and place them wide-end up in the cooker. ... "
" ... Basic common sense really, placing anything plastic directly on hot metal . ... "
" ... Metal parts are thin but do the job. ... "
" ... It holds one more egg than my old one and does a perfect job for hard boiled. ... "

" ... The instructions said 12 minutes for 6 eggs and that it would automatically shut off once completed. ... "
" ... The first time I used it, I followed the directions carefully, and although I'm sure I left it in a little past the light going off, the egg poaching tray is now deformed on the bottom and obviously melted a bit. ... "
" ... Just had to look through the instructions once then I had it. ... "
" ... My experience with it tells me to go by the light timing wise, not by what it says in the instructions. ... "
" ... I was concerned while waiting because the manual says it should only take 12 minutes. ... Manual should state that the wait time can vary by +/- a certain number of minutes. ... "

" ... The only thing that would make this better is a ding sound when the eggs are done, but I set my stove timer . ... "
" ... Heard about this product from one of my favorite podcast "GrumpyOldGeeks", and did not disappoint. ... "
