This is the easiest way I could find to cook eggs. I know, it seems easy to boil water and throw eggs in the pot, but then you have to wait for the water to boil, put the eggs in, wait for them to be done, dump the water, deal with really hot eggs etc. With this cooker, add water, put the eggs in, cover, hit the button, walk away and come back when convenient and you'll have hard boiled eggs. Eggs aren't necessarily bad for you, especially if you just eat the egg whites for the protein! :) Only downside: kind of hard to clean, but I find that wiping it with a towel or paper towel works best to take off the grime.


I have used this model of Oster egg cooker for 10 or 15 years. I have also used a couple of other brands. No other egg cooker product poaches eggs as consistently perfect as this one. It also hard boils eggs well.


I too am the victim of a this egg cooker which did not shut off and melted the top which fused to the machine. I was making eggs for Easter dinner and when I came in from outside the smell was horrible. I tossed the entire egg cooker in the trash as I could not even pry it open. I never thought about contacting them until I was going to order a new one and read other reviews where this appears to be a serious problem with this cooker. I purchased mine in late 2005 and only use it 2-3 times a year.....so this makes about the 10th time it has been used. I sent a inquiry to Oster and there response back to me was that it has a 1 year warrenty and since I can not produce the product there is nothing they will do. I can tell you I will not make the same mistake by buying this product again. Up until it melted, I would have highly recommended it as it made perfect hard boiled eggs. I recommended to Oster that there needs to be a safety recall on this product!


My wife and I love poached eggs, but my efforts at cooking them were never predictable - runny one time, overcooked the next. Although my first couple uses of the Oster produced overcooked eggs, I finally experimented by using just over half the recommended amount of water (I use enough water that the surface tension just breaks over the first ledge) and my poached eggs are coming out perfect every time now. My wife says whatever I paid for it, it'd be worth it!


I've been using this egg cooker for a month now and on the whole I like it a lot. For hard boiled eggs it's terrific. For poached eggs is just okay. It only holds large eggs and they're hard to get out of the cooker because the little handle gets so hot.


I tell you, on the days I use this little device--I lose weight. And that's because I have a couple of hard-boiled eggs around. Furthermore, they are easy to peel, and perfectly cooked, the yolk creamy and not dry. Once a week or so, I put my extra eggs into a sweet little bath of whatever vinegar I have a taste for, whatever spices, and enjoy pickled eggs.

And it's all made possible by this device. I have experienced no problems after several months of use, it is easy to clean, and it makes hard-boiled, soft-boiled, and poached eggs completely easy and completely fool-proof. I clean mine by holding the water well under warm running water (with the electrical end up and above the water flow) and run a brush over it, and any small eggy residue whisks right off. The residue comes from the fact that one pierces the eggs with a tiny built-in --tooth before starting the cycle.

Of course reviewers who said the finished signal should be more audible are right. It makes you pay attention.




This product makes it very easy to make perfect hard boiled eggs every time. Set it and forget it. The only downside is that cleaning after use took a little effort. I recommend this product to anyone.


This makes eggs just the way you want soft,medium,or hard. It is an easy appliance to use.


I'm finding I have to watch the cooking time very carefully. Poached eggs will overcook if I wait for the unit to shut off. Same with the hard boiled, I use a kitchen timer and am still trying to arrive at the correct timing, the water level suggestions have not worked for me. I'm confident once I get the timing down it will be great...had hoped this wouldn't be necessary. Also wish it had a buzzer to alert when finished.


I love my Oster Egg Cooker. No more watching the clock when I boil eggs. I just put them in the cooker and push the button. Poached eggs are easy and slide right out of the cups. I am very pleased about the product.
