DBTech Electric Egg Cooker - With Automatic Shut off an Buzzer to notify you when the eggs are ready

How well it cooks depends on how you measure the water; it works great for us
I like this cooker better than the ones I've used in the past (I have chickens so, trust me, an egg cooker is needed) because I can cook more at a time.

My husband would pour in water and then say he was not happy with the results but each time I used it, it was perfect. So I asked him to do it in front of me. He got some water, poured it in, and turned it on...AHA! So let me share how this works. When the water boils out, the eggs are done. If you don't measure your water and you put in too much, it will keep cooking, if you don't put in enough it will turn off early. The water isn't there just to steam, it also regulates when it's time to turn itself off.

So USE the measuring cup enclosed correctly and you should have flawless eggs.

That said, those of us with very fresh eggs know how hard they can be too peel if you simply boil them. This takes away that issue. The steaming rather than boiling makes for a better boiled egg that is perfectly easy...

Awesome egg cooker (Directions listed) ...
I was really leery of this egg cooker because I saw so many negative comments. Some, on the other hand, raved over the quality of the eggs. So which was it? The problem, as I soon discovered was the quality of the directions, or lack of them. Clarity in this case can make a BIG difference as to how those eggs turn out. I pored over them and took a close look at everything. It was one of those "here goes nothing" moments and that's what I expected. Nothing. Well, I put in four eggs because I thought a little egg salad lunch would be nice and voilà ... it was. I'll try to give you some directions in the form of FAQs and hints that might make your egg experience much easier.

FAQs

Q: Why do I have to put MORE water in when I am cooking fewer eggs?

A: If you think about it, think in terms of the area inside your egg cooker. If you are cooking two eggs the steam has to cover a wider area, therefore you need more water. More eggs, you need...

A good boiler so far
This is an effective egg boiler. You can choose "hard boiled", "half-hard boiled" and "soft boiled" by adding different amount of water by its small cup! It works fast. I didn't calculate the exact time for boiling 2-3 eggs but 5-8 minutes will be enough. There's also a small bowl which is very cute. I never used it but it seems enough to heat soup for one person. Just one thing is its alarm is a bit loud and I can't use is in early morning when my roommate is still sleeping. Hopefully it can last for long. Love it so far.
