muito bom! pequeno, prático, ótimos resultados, ovos ficam perfeitos, do jeitinho que voce gosta. vale muito a pena!!!

I always swore. To never be one of those people that bought an appliance that only makes one thing… Like those sandwich maker/toasters for example…. Now I officially have 2 items that were only made for one thing…. The first was a cutter/crimper set for my kids to use to make their own Uncrustables, which has been used daily since I got it for everything from PB&J, to meat/cheese, to tuna salad, to pimento cheese, to even cucumber sandwiches… They have gone sandwich crazy! Then I found this little item while looking for something to let my son cook an egg or 2 in the microwave, and in the midst of all the little plastic and ceramic cups with lids for the microwave I found these egg cookers. The red one was on sale for a lower price than the other colors and as our kitchen is detailed in red I took that as a nudge that we should try it, after reading through countless reviews first!I do want to say that someone on here posted that it didn’t work with farm fresh eggs, that’s not true! It works just fine! I think their problem was because they punctured their eggs at the top and not at the bottom where the air sack is like the instructions say to do. Make sure you are putting the little hole on the bigger end, the bottom, of the egg. It worked perfectly for us with eggs that were just collected over the past day or 2. We have only had this little thing not even a whole day, it got here this morning and already my kids have made everything from hard boiled, to poached, to “scrambled”. My son used the omelette setting and try to make scrambled eggs by only using the fork to break up the yolks and stuff a little, then season and cook, then use his fork to break them up and fluff them a little on his plate. It worked great! They had eggs for lunch and supper today just because they like that they can to it themselves. They are 12, and I did monitor them while they did. We already go through about 20 eggs a week, now I worry that I won’t be able to keep them supplied with enough at all! I made myself a soft boiled egg on toast for supper and it was excellent! Its the only photo I have to upload as I didn’t think about it when the kids ate. All I added was a little Louisiana Hot Sauce sprinkled over the egg and buttered toast. I didn’t mess with anything else as I was exhausted from working out in the yard today. Now I am catching myself not only thinking about get these as gifts for a couple of people I know that work a lot and don’t have a lot of time for cooking, but also looking into some of the other little items Dash makes! I rarely mess with steaming rice as I am the only one that eats it, but the size of the one by Dash has me thinking. I absolutely LOVE the size of this egg cooker! Its simple, small, and I have a whole, almost empty top shelf in my kitchen that I could keep 2-3 little things like this easily up there with my big ol crock pot. I am very glad I decided to get this thing, so are my kids! We are always looking for things they can make for themselves without resorting to frozen tv dinner type stuff for when I am working late. My 19yr old daughter can make a few things, but not many, and the boys like making stuff themselves. If you are on the fence about this you should go for it! Everything we have made so far has come out cooked as wanted. I may pick up an extra one to take to the office for people. I think it would be a big hit!

This is great product. So I purchased this a few months ago and wanted to try out all the features before I submitted my review. I mainly purchased it for making hard boiled eggs without the fuss of doing it on the stove, and supposedly the shells would come off easier after cooking.I love the convenience of cooking hard boiled eggs, although some eggs seem to cook perfectly while others may have a yolk that is a tad soft but never so soft that it isn’t edible or workable for deviled eggs. And, in 95% of the cases, whether it is a fresh from the chicken egg or a store bought egg, the shells come off easily. A HUGE bonus for me.I read that a lot of people had difficulty with the poached egg feature, and I was definitely among them. However, I finally hit the right water level after trying them all. The water level for poached on the water cup will yield an uncooked watery mess. But if you set the water level to medium, dead on, no more, no less, you should end up with a perfect poached egg. When the timer goes off, get your egg outta there or it will continue to cook, not a good thing. You will need to pour off what little water may be in the cup, then serve. I use olive oil to coat the poaching cup before putting in the egg. Not sure if it matters what you use, but that’s what I use.The omelet cup yields a wonderful fluffy omelet. The capacity is 2 eggs but quite frankly one egg puffs up so much during the cooking time that I’m not sure if 2 eggs would be too much or not. I only eat one egg anyway, and I add stuff like cheese, bacon, ham, onions, whatever strikes my fancy. I was really impressed by the result.So there you have it. I love this cooker, I’m so glad I purchased it. Be sure and read the directions, the most important one being to NOT lock your cooker while it is cooking. It will become a mini pressure cooker if you do that and that would not be a good thing. The lock feature is there to keep the accessories locked into the cooker when you are storing it. I put a label on the lid of the cooker to remind me NOT to lock it during cooking because sometimes I forget stuff.
