I have to say that this egg cooker is awesome!! The eggs cook quickly and peeling them is so easy!! No green ring around the yolk. The only drawback is that I didn’t buy a bigger one. Seriously this egg cooker is amazing. So easy and quick. And the clean up is great. Just wipe it down and put it away. If you’re thinking about buying an egg cooker buy this one!!

This is my favorite kitchen gadget! I love hard boiled eggs, but never could get them right. So, I just didn't bother. Now, I use this and my eggs turn out perfect and the shells come off easily. The hardest part for me is puncturing a hole in the egg. I always feel like the egg will break in my hand, but it doesn't. For hard boiled eggs, once the chime goes off, I turn it off but leave the eggs in the holder for a couple of more minutes. Then submerge in ice water. I found if I take the eggs right out and put them in ice water, the yolk is a little soft. But, that's ok too. I only need them to be fully cooked if I plan to slice them for a salad. Love this egg cooker!

Until now, the only way I could peel hard boiled eggs easily was to keep them until their "best by" date and then boil them on the gas stove. And then maybe 3 out of a dozen would still be very difficult to peel. I tried this little gem on eggs way before their "best by" date and the shell almost jumped off the egg by itself after I cracked it. Very easy to peel and so far, no problems. Also tried the omelet pan this morning and it worked like a champ. It is a little difficult to see the markings on the water cup, which essentially sets the amount of cooking time. Also, using the shell piercing needle in the measuring cup was a bit nerve wracking; I was worried that the raw egg would come apart in my hands. But I was careful and nothing broke. My biggest sorrow is that I didn't find this years ago. Well worth the price.

If you read (and follow) the instructions you'll have the best experience with the Dash Rapid Egg Cooker. I received it, read the instruction booklet, unpacked it, washed the washable parts, watched Dash's little "how to" videos and quickly made 2 poached eggs. They were perfect! Not too runny, not at all hard and moist & delicious as well.I quickly prepared 7 eggs for hard cooking by poking the wide end of the egg with the provided tool, adding the correct amount of water and putting the cover on the cooker. I got 7 perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs.While I was learning how to use the tool to poke holes in the eggs I was being overly cautious and managed to break 2 eggs by squeezing too hard and breaking the shell of one -- in multiple places -- with my fingers. I broke a 2nd one by pushing the tool almost sideways making a bigger hole with a small crack in it. I chalked those 2 up to experience and set them aside. I then cooked 7 intact eggs in the cooker. They came out perfect and unexpectedly easy to peel.I've never been able to boil any number of eggs without a few cracking badly so losing 2 to the learning experience still left me ahead in the hard cooking eggs game.After making the first 7 eggs, I decided to "see what would happen" if I cooked the 2 broken eggs in the egg cooker even though they were badly broken. Please note that the first egg was essentially crushed with a little bit of egg white oozing out between the broken pieces of egg shell. The other egg was slightly cracked with a larger than necessary square hole in it. I assumed that both wood ooze out quite a bit of egg into the cooker. I added the appropriate amount of water, crossed my fingers and turned it on. The egg timer went off and I opened the cooker.Both eggs appeared to be intact with no leakage whatsoever. A big surprise. I cooled and peeled both eggs and they were absolutely intact and tasted great. The broken one was misshapen looking in the shell but once the shell was (easily) removed it looked fine, only slightly lumpy at the top of the egg - the part that is usually flat in hard boiled eggs. Even though some of the egg white had oozed out of the cracks in the shell, the egg itself, the egg looked fine. It would have been fine for most uses unless you were looking for a perfect shape for deviled eggs for example. Boiling an egg generally leaves a flat spot on the broad end of the egg, so normally that perfect shape just doesn't happen.So, my first 3 attempts using this egg cooker far exceeded my expectations and the Dash Rapid Egg Cooker is definitely a keeper for me.BTW: Reading and following the instructions is, in my opinion, essential to successfully using this cooker.Viewing the video that is included in the product listing is also very helpful: it gives a good idea of what to expect and you can observe what it looks like to use the cooker successfully.I learned from watching the video that using the needle provided to poke a hole in the larger end of the egg helps to prevent the eggs from cracking, makes the shells much easier to peel and allows the wider end of the egg to expand to fill the rounded shape of the shell giving a perfect egg shape on both ends for much better looking eggs for any dish where the shape of the whole egg is visible such as for deviled eggs.The video also explains why the provided measuring cup indicates that LESS water is used for MORE eggs being cooked which is counterintuitive. A number of reviewers have commented on this seeming mis-measurement; assuming the cup was incorrectly markedI can't recall ever being this pleased with an online purchase and I will be using Dash's Rapid Egg Cooker regularly.

Easy to use. Fiddly with the right water level but once figured out, easy! Faster than boiling in a pan. They come out perfect and EASY to peel the eggs, every time! Also love the compact size.
