7-Egg Rapid Egg Cooker, Poacher/Omelet Maker, Auto Shut-Off

Update-Almost subtracted one star. After a few weeks of use, the measuring marks on the little cup have almost totally worn off. i remarked with a sharpie, but even those are wearing off. I have just remarked with my sharpie, but this time I have added clear packaging tape to see if that helps protect the marks. I have also checked the measurements by pouring into my measuring spoons so I will know what to use if I totally lose the marks on the little cup. Hard boiled = 5T + 1t. Poached = 4T. Soft boiled = 2T + 2t. Don't use it to cook scrambled eggs so I didn't measure that. Still love the thing! Note: because I am using more eggs, they are fresher when hard boiled than the first batch I fixed, and the fresher eggs are much easier to peel. --------- Original review Easy to use. Easy to clean. Makes perfect poached eggs. I no longer overcook my hard boiled eggs. I use grade "large" eggs. For hard boiled, I use just a bit more water (about an extra 1/8 inch). They are not as easy to peel as some people say, but they aren't hard to peel either. Got this because I was buying pre-cooked & peeled hard boiled eggs. They, like everything else, have gotten more expensive. With this little gadget I can cook them whenever I want, it's fast and easy, and I don't have to go to the store. I just keep a good supply of raw eggs on hand and we get our protein for much less cost. We have definitely been eating more eggs. I love poached eggs, but they were always too much trouble to fix. This makes poached eggs a snap-I've been having them every morning now! There is an omelet attachment, but it's pretty tiny. I usually use 4-6 eggs for an omelet, plus meat, veggies & cheese. I think it would only be good for 2 or maybe three scrambled eggs, or, like I said, a tiny omelet. Don't know how long this will last, but I WILL be getting a replacement when it dies! Highly recommend.

I purchased this item to replace a Cuisinart egg cooker that I had for 21 years. I was a bit nervous because I really wanted another Cuisinart, but their unit was too large. My item arrived promptly, and was well-packaged. I reviewed the enclosed user manual, which I found to be well-written. The measuring cup/egg piercer was easy to read, and use. I like the large cap that covers the pin, which makes it difficult to accidentally lose. I ran the cooker with 6 eggs on the Hard Boil cycle. I liked that the lid is see-through, so I could keep an eye on the eggs. The cycle didn't take long and the alarm was loud enough to be easily heard. The unit automatically shut off, but the alarm kept sounding until I physically turned the cooker off. The lid, the egg rack and the other accessories have handles strategically placed to avoid receiving any nasty burns. I found peeling the eggs very easy, and cleanup of the cooker was a breeze. A couple of the eggs did leak a little out of the pin holes. I intend to follow the manual's suggestion of turning them over and piercing the larger end for the next cooking. I'm extremely impressed with this egg cooker and I highly recommend it. I hope my detailed review helps others with their decision.

This definitely gets five stars! Well made and easy and convenient to use. Small enough for easy storage. I just put it right back in the box after it’s dried off. The built-in timer is a great feature. No more waiting for the water to boil, in 12 minutes you have perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs. This holds seven eggs.

First Use: Eggs turned out awesome, easy to peal and perfectly hard. For 4 Extra Large, (XL) eggs I increased the water to the full amount on of the measuring cup and left the eggs in the cooker for an additional 5 minutes after it finished. I would have given 5 stars if the directions for XL eggs were detailed in the instruction book, instead of more water more time. Overall, I am very satisfied. I will definitely be making more deviled eggs.

The Elite Gourmet 7-Egg Rapid Egg Cooker could not do a better job. Eggs cook evenly and separate nicely. Further the eggs do not crack during the cooking process. I'd buy another one but that would be a bit wonky….

This little egg cooker is great. It's very easy to use and makes great eggs cooked however you want them. I love it and use it all the time.

Love this little cooker!

I love this!! Great bang for the buck! I’d have bought this years ago, if I had known how well it works. It’s a tiny little thing, which is great for an RV. I read a lot of reviews about this type of egg cooker, including those that are much more expensive. The typical complaints were basically the same regardless of price point, so I decided if the expensive versions didn’t really perform better, why spend the extra cash?! Some of what I saw was typically user error or those anomalous things like getting an “open box” item when expecting something new, but I will address some of that here. Regarding the scorched bottom and smell. The plate is stainless steel. As with any stainless steel, scorching can occur when the water boils down. The instructions clearly state to turn it off when the alarm goes off. If you don’t, it will scorch the bottom. My first time, I did delay in turning it off, so I had a bit of a scorched bottom. I lifted the eggs out, set them in a bowl under cool water and immediately used the little water cup to put water in the bottom to loosen the scorching. Within the few minutes I spent peeling the eggs (which was very easy), the water had done its job. I poured the water out and wiped it with a clean towel and it was fine. One other pointer - if you use hard tap water, you will likely get hard water stains on the plate from the water boiling out. If those stains bother you, use distilled water. I did cook 7 eggs my first time and I used just a little more water than the mark indicated for hard boiled eggs. They came out beautiful and I only needed cool tap water to loosen the shells for peeling. No ice bath was necessary. The instructions said the pin prick was optional, so I opted to NOT prick them to see what happened. One egg had a hairline crack so the egg expanded the shell a bit, but it all stayed self contained. It just ended up having a slightly wonky shape (it’s the one I cut open that doesn’t have the perfectly oval shape). The one thing I cannot comment on is the longevity of the appliance, since I just took it out on its first test drive. If it suddenly breaks down, I will update this review.

Funciona muy bien, súper practico, solo hay que encontrarle el modo al tema de los tiempos, que aunque viene explicado en el manual podría ser algo confuso

Maravilloso producto, en cuestión de minutos tienes un desayuno. Súper fácil de utilizar y de limpiar. Recomendado!

Al finalizar el agua se apaga y emite una alarma de buen sonido y la cual no se detiene hasta que acudes y desactivas el botón, nos gustó mucho

Es pequeña más de lo que esperaba lo cual es mejor aún, ya qué no quita mucho espacio. Solo eh probado hacer huevos duros 10/10 por el momento

Saw many reviews for this rapid egg cooker and thought I would give it a shot since I like boiled eggs. This device works fantastic. It only requires a small amount of water and boils eggs to perfection (you can adjust how hard the egg is boiled based on the water you put in it - you measure it with the included plastic measuring cup). In addition the included measuring cup has a pin on the bottom to pierce a hole in the eggs. When the eggs are cooked it beeps non-stop to let you know to turn the device off and take your eggs out. Cleaning is minimal. Excellent device!
