LONG TIME USER
By GGma
from Loveland, CO
I purchased this item over a year ago and I love it. My granddaughter comes to my house every Wed. and she loves hard boiled eggs, so I use it every week since I also like them on salads. It cooks 4 eggs evenly in 7 mins and they peel easily compared to boiling them. I love that part. I plan to buy more as gifts for my family.
I have bought three of them
By Lou

This is the best egg boiler that I have found and I have tried several it's fast and simple. I bought three of them for making hard boiled eggs fast and the other one I gave to my daughter. Love it!

Wonderful invention
By Hillbilly Pat

Cook in microwave for 7 minutes, take out and let cool, and you have 4 perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs. Keeps the kitchen cool. Love this product!
Awesome egg cooker
By Charscr
from Wichita, Kansas
I live in a Retirement Community where we have all 3 of our meals prepared daily. I have a microwave in my room and I love hard boiled eggs. I saw this in your catalogue and had to have it. It cooks great just 7 short minutes and I have hard boiled eggs. This product is awesome!
very disapointing

Too Small for my Microwave
By Galomorro
from San Francisco, CA
About Me Can't Cook
I couldn't use this product because I have a Little Litton, a very old microwave that was too small for the product to fit into. I thought it was also difficult to figure out how long. I am not good in math and expected it to be simpler to figure out how long to cook the eggs. Even my neighbor, who is very good at figuring out things like this, was unable to do this the first time. If my microwave had been large enough, I would have been able to experiment more with it.
Love it !!!
By Dnice

Perfect every time!
By Louie
from Glendale, WI
I have a small microwave with only 800 watts. I put the eggs in, set the timer for 7 minutes and the eggs come out perfect. Much better than watching water boil on the stove.

My favorite
By G-Pers

I use this twice a week, every week. I love it so much I bought 4 more to give to my friends as gifts. The eggs cook perfectly and the shells don't stick to the egg. NICE !
Egg Boiler
By Dar
from Sturgeon Bay,WI
I use this cooker when I only want a few hard cooked eggs for salad or sandwiches. My microwave may not be as hot as the newer ones as it takes 8 min. for perfect hard cooked eggs. I love it.
Actually works like it is suppose to!!!

This morning, I used it for the first time, I tried with 2 eggs. I ran it for 6 minutes, then let in sit the micro for 10 minutes, using a timer.The eggs were hard boiled, which is what I wanted.Use with common sense. It's wonderful.

Great Product!
By Beach Bum
from Mexico Beach, FL
2 Large eggs, high 2 1/2 mins. Then 6 mins. at 70% power. Let set about 10mins.Two jumbo eggs 3 1/2 mins. on high then 8 mins. at 70% power. Let set about 10mins. Eggs have a different consistency,very moist and tender, and a whiz to peel. Love this cooker!!
Eight Minutes and I'm SO Happy
By Marie Melville
from Washington DC
As several people have noted, the instructions are either bad or missing. So pay attention! :) It takes 8 minutes in my microwave, and there's NO trouble at all. I love this gadget and would never bother to make hard-boiled eggs the old-fashioned way. Plus, it's cute as heck, especially in a hen-themed kitchen.

Perfect eggs-very pleased
By Gimpy
from Schenectady New York
Eggs come out perfect-however, before I ordered I read the reviews-two stated their eggs perfect-they were timed 7 to 7.5 minutes and then left in microwave for 14 minutes. The 1st time I did the 7 minutes. Eggs were cooked but yokes were a little soft. 2nd time I cooked them for 7.5 minutes and they were perfect. (both times I left in microwave for 14 minutes after cooking time was up) As everyone's microwave is different, you have to experiment. Try one egg 1st. To those who said it didn't work you didn't cook them long enough-try again. I have used mine everyday since owning and have had perfect eggs every time. HOWEVER-BE CAREFUL TAKING OUT OF MICROWAVE -IT IS HARD TO GET OUT OF MICROWAVE-PICK UP FROM BOTTOM -IF YOU PICK UP FROM MIDDLE IT COMES APART AND SPILLS HOT WATER ALL OVER MICROWAVE AND YOU. THEY NEED CLASP TO KEEP IT CLOSED.
Simple and easy

Don't waste your money
By Mickeyboy
from Olmsted Falls, Oh
I tried and experimented with different times and power settings. Eggs cracked and made a mess. Very poor instructions. Don't waste your money.

Shells Slide Right Off Hardboiled Eggs!!
By benglo
from Flo, TX
Never before, no matter how many suggestions I have taken from TV or newspaper home-cooking experts, have I ever, been able to peel a hard boiled egg completely, without tearing the outside white part. When making deviled eggs and stuffing them, this makes a complete mess! With this small kitchen appliance, I never have this problem anymore. I put my eggs in this little steamer for 6-7 minutes, let them cool, and peel. The shells come off cleanly and completely. Granted, to prepare many deviled eggs, I have to steam many sets of eggs in the microwave, but how hard is that!! I ordered myself one, then my oldest daughter wanted one, and now that my youngest daughter is moving out, she wants one for her kitchen. Everyone should have one!

I was skeptical. surprised, and pleased
By Marci the groomer
from Lansdowne, VA
I am a senior that lives in the basement bedroom of a three story house. This little gadget lets me have a great hot breakfast without climbing the stairs to my families kitchen. The most useful item I've purchased in a long time. Would be great for the college dorm.
MICROWAVE EGG BOILER

CUTE AND SMALL'
Doesn't work for me
By Edie
from Florida
I followed all directions adjusting the time as recommended, with no success. Both tries ended in raw eggs.
so easy to use
By hsvcatmom
from Arkansas
I see great potential for using the egg cooker. I never knew one was available that could be used in the microwave. I've not quite gotten the variables down yet (size of eggs, amount of time), but with some more experimenting, it will be soooo useful!
My Microwave Egg Boiler
By Pat
from Scappoose, Oregon
I really like the egg boiler with my microwave. I can fix a few or several at a time and don't have to use lots of eggs. I bought some as gifts and I have 2 for my personal use and they are really great.
