 Oster Egg Cooker August 15, 2008
This is better than sliced bread. I am always cooking eggs and always forgetting about them on the stove. Now I don't have to watch the pot. I put the water in, the eggs, cover, press the button and forget about it. Approximately 20 minutes later I have hard boiled eggs. If you don't have one of these, you need to get one.

You don't need to watch over boiling water to cook eggs anymore. Just set it and go! Love it.

Love it. Large eggs fit beautifully in it. Water levels actually produce eggs cooked to the doneness indicated. Yummy breakfast for one to four. Package arrived on time. No problems.
 Perfectly done hardboiled eggs at the touch of a button July 30, 2008
What a nifty little machine! It's nice to know you can have hardboiled eggs any time you want with almost no effort. Just pour in a small amount of water, set the eggs on the grate, drop on the lid and press a button. Your hardboiled eggs are done perfectly every time! The machine shuts off automatically.
The only disadvantage to this machine is that it is a bit difficult to clean. Sulphur tends to be released from the eggs during the "cooking" and you have to wipe out the interior base by hand with a paper towel fairly often. If you like hardboiled eggs you'll feel your money was well spent.
 Oster Automatic Egg Cooker July 23, 2008
After reading the reviews on many different brands of egg cookers I decided on this automatic cooker. I was concerned because two reviews listed a problem with the lid melting. However, that was only two out of 138+ positive reviews. I purchased this directly from Amazon. The shipping was fast, arriving in two days time even though I chose ground. I followed the instruction exactly and cooked to hard boil 8 eggs. The cooker worked perfectly. The eggs were plunged into ice water and then peeled under the cold water faucet and they were perfect for making deviled eggs. The second time I used the product-one week later I had a problem. The popping sounds and funny smell alerted me to a melting lid which was not apparent just by looking at the cooker. The light did not turn off so I had no reason to assume they were not done. When I removed the lid strands of melted plastic follwed and a horrible smell. Oddly, the eggs still cooked to perfection. I had followed the directions exactly. I called the Oster people (who really are not Oster) and after numerous menus was connected to a very nice person. She claimed I was the first to have a problem such as this as I mentioned the previous reviews with the same problem. Apparently, they did not report it. I had a difficult time locating the model numbers so she retrieved the product and helped me to locate them. She nicely told me they would send another cooker and did not want the other one returned. The new cooker arrived faster then calculated. I tried to use it again. This time I let the eggs sit out to room temperature. Again, followed the instructions exactly. However, this time I watched to see when it seemed the water had boiled mostly out and then I removed the plug and immediately took off the cover. Plunged the eggs into ice water and they were done to perfection. I have decided that is the key here to cooking hard boiled eggs in this cooker. I hope it continues to perform because I really was happy with the way the eggs turned out with the first cooker. I like the fact that it makes 8 eggs instead of the usual 7, which I think is an odd number. Eggs peel beautifully and it is nice to be able to hard boil a lot in one setting to have on hand. Even though it melted the first time I give it 3 stars for fast delievery, good cooked eggs, and very accomodating customer service from the Oster people.
