5 out of 5 stars A must have for every kitchen a perfect gift for everyone on your list this year!   November 9, 2005

I am so in love with this product!! My 13 year old son has been conducting demonstrations in my kitchen. A must have for everyone on your Holiday shopping list. Perfect for a fresh hot breakfast on demand. Took about 4 tries to get the hang of it but we have experienced perfect egg muffins every time. The boiled eggs are just right, if you have family members that each like a different style of boiled egg this is for you. Hard boiled eggs for that chef or cobb salad ready while you assemble the other ingredients. After school snacks and those dinners on the run also covered with this product. Set it up with your choice, poached or boiled, select your bread push the button and by the time you get your dishes and beverage breakfast is ready. Perfect for singles, families with children and your aging parental units. Easy to use, easy to clean, delivers a quality product. Only makes one at a time but not a problem for us as it allows each of us to eat when we are ready in the morning. This is the one item that I will purchase for everyone on my Holiday shopping list this year.......and if I order another one I can make 2 at a time......

Took it out of the box and cleaned it. Made a egg muffin sandwich perfectly the first time. Then hard boiled 4 eggs perfectly. Made another egg sandwich this morning. How did I survive before this???


1 out of 5 stars Good idea, bad execution   September 17, 2006

I think this is a great idea HOWEVER, please be forewarned -
1. The "non-stick" finish in my egg pan has chipped and peeled off after just a few uses. Even with spraying the pan with cooking spray, egg is difficult to remove.
2. The toaster, when used alone, is painfully slow to toast and toasts unevenly - one side is toasted more than the other. Annoying.
3. Hardboiling eggs made a huge mess for me, where the eggs are pierced, the egg bubbled up and went all over the place.

I think this is a case of doing too many things at once and not functioning well at any of them.



5 out of 5 stars Seems the ultimate gadget but it's useful and well thought out   October 13, 2005

I was quite impressed when I took this gadget out of the box, and that feeling did'nt change up to and including putting it to use.

The mark of a well thought out product is attention to detail. This unit comes with a measuring cup marked with the amount of water needed for soft, medium and hard, hard boiled eggs and soft and medium poached eggs. For up to 4 hard boiled eggs the instructions say to puncture each egg to prevent exploding due to steam build up in the shell. There's a handy and thoughtful egg piercer on the bottom of the measuring cup for that purpose.

I have made my husband the happiest man alive when I turned his boring breakfast cereal eating days into an exciting breakfast experience! One thing run toasting cycle first before you toast anything or you will get a weird plastic smell. The smell wears of after the first toasting cycle.

#1 it cooks egg Mcmuffins to perfection
#2 clean up is sooooo easy
#3 it offers a variety of other dishes to be made!

So what if the meat from heating tray drips off onto the food. I am a cook and know that this gives it much more flavor! If you are concerned just pat the poached egg with a paper towel (easy).

Recipes I have come up with:

1. Try havarti cheese instead of cheddar and put some steamed spinach on top of the egg, yummy, use with English muffin or croissant.

2. Try smoked turkey breast deli slices for lower fat, cheddar cheese and spread raspberry jam on the bottom of the English muffin.

3. Try Cheese whiz over an opened faced English muffin instead of hollandaise sauce.

4. Try an opened faced egg sandwich, use cheddar cheese, sausage patty and poached egg
and pour sausage gravy over top.

If you want a low fat cheese try a soy pepper jack found at Giant. MMM much lower fat!

The recipes are endless!!!!!!!!!! And much easier and cleaner too!!!
