Salter Electric Multi Egg Cooker - 6 Egg Capacity Boiler, Great For Soft Dippy, Hard & Poached Eggs, Includes Measuring Cup, Removable Egg Rack and 2 Poaching Trays, Easy Clean, Compact, 430W

This is a very efficient egg boiler. Following the user instructions, which are straight forward, gets you perfectly boiled eggs every time. You just use the egg piercer to put a small hole in the bottom of the egg to prevent it cracking then use the graduated cup to put the required water in the tray then place your eggs in the holder and put the lid on,switch it on and that's it. It automatically switches off when the eggs are cooked. It is compact and easy to clean. It holds up to 6 eggs.

This is now one of our most important kitchen gadgets. Like you, we have gadgets bought and hardly, if ever used. Not this one. It sits in pride of place on the countertop and is used several times a week. Simple, perfect boiled eggs, whatever your preference of super soft, to rock hard, every time. We wouldn't be without one now. The big bonus, it is inexpensive to purchase and saves energy as well.

I don't usually give 5 stars, because nothing is perfect. So this is top marks from me.!! The egg boiler is very easy to use and clean. The price is quite good as well, but I think it could be a tad less, then it would have got 5 stars. Would I buy it again ?? Yes I think so, but as I have only just got it I can't be sure as to how reliable it actually is.

I eat lots of eggs for a good protein diet. They cook perfectly, boiled and poached. So easy to fill and put on while you're doing something else in the kitchen. And always peel well. A great little gadget. 👍

I highly recommend this little omelette maker. It makes great meals in minutes and not just omelettes, I've made fried and even poached eggs in it. Much easier than than using a pan. The user manual says 7-8 minutes but I find that is too undercooked for my liking, so I cook for 10-12 for fluffy omelettes.

Bought to replace the comparable 'VonShef' branded one we previously owned that stopped working one day after about 2 years. I went for this brand as I've had several kitchen products from Salter and they've always been good quality. I paid £13.99 (full price) for mine which was cheaper than the one it was replacing and feels like a good price for a quality item like this. The first thing I'll say is my relief at having PRINTED measurements on the cup! The previous one just had raised markings, making it so hard to see the water level (see comparison pic). This one is far more sensible and, even if the ink wears off in the future, it's still a far better system than the previous. It's developed the brown staining pictured after 2 uses, although I feel like that's to be expected (my other one did exactly the same). I've found using an abrasive cleaner like The Pink Stuff gets rid of it without too much hassle. There was still a trace of water left in the tray (my old one would boil off all the water), which boiled away quickly once I'd taken the lid off. I'm guessing this is designed to limit the build-up of staining over time. The boil function worked great and cooked quicker than I remember my old one doing. We've tried 'soft' and 'hard' eggs (medium size Tesco eggs, if that makes a difference) and both are what you'd expect ('soft' gave a liquid yolk, set white; 'hard' cooked the egg through). Our old one was more of a guessing game, and I found myself having to add more or less water than the designated mark to achieve the result I was expecting. When the eggs were done, the light made an audible 'click' as it switched off, which was enough to alert me as I was in the room at the time. I'm not overly impressed with the poaching function. I 'preheated' the machine in order to melt the butter I had put in the cups, but even with the cups coated in butter, the egg still stuck to them a fair bit. I also had to run the machine through 3 cycles (I used the "medium 1-3 eggs" marking) before they were cooked through. That said, I bought it to boil eggs, the poach function was an added bonus, but one I won't use again as it was too much of a faff. The egg pricker is sharp enough to get through the shells with ease (I know I keep comparing it, but this pin is MUCH easier to use than my old one!); there's no twisting the egg back and forth trying to break through, and it's not sticking out risking pricking your finger. I like that the little handle for the egg tray is removable, it's a nice little design, and it's sturdy when locked in place. Everything fits inside the lid (if arranged as pictured, if your poaching cups are the other way up then it's a squeeze) and all-in-all it's a compact, good quality little cooker.

I bought this thinking I would get back to eating a few more omelettes and actually did for a few weeks. It did a job at first and they were very tasty I have to admit. Great for snacking and quick breakfasts. After multiple uses however, found it really difficult to clean and be rid of brown staining which came from butter and a drop of oil. Neither were overused and I can't really say I left it days without wiping, cos it was cleaned every use upon cooling down as instructed. Not sure if it was me that caused it, but considering it was supposed to be nonstick, and supposedly 'only needs a wipe', it didn't stay clean long. This ultimately started to change the colour of every omelette made and when attempting to clean a bit more vigorously, it soon started to fall apart. All in all, a nice little appliance with good intentions if it lasts, or is actually easy to clean, but for me it just wasn't. Perhaps it was something I did and thankfully, the thing doesn't cost a lot, but I hardly got any shelf life out of it and have now stopped eating omelette again.

Full of oil and fingerprint marks. Manual is torn. Box is crampled and old.

Helaas kreeg ik hem met een Engelse stekker, dit wordt hem dus niet..........

I find this omelette maker reasonably good . The only disappointment is that it came with an English electrical plug. Had to get an adapter to get it to work in Australia. apart from that, it seems to work okay.
