Makes great soft boiled eggs......I only clean the pierce needle with a soapy Kleenex and rinse....that's it........fast perfect eggs in several minutes.....temporary auto shutoff means I dont need to "Mother" the several steaming minutes.....no thee to wait 5 or 10 minutes for a covering pot of water to boil and then still need to cook......in about a minute the several ounces of water needed begins to steam-cook. ....BE SURE to keep you eggs upright in carton as packed, and be sure to move from carton to load on the steam rack IN THE SAME ORIGINAL UPRIGHT ORIENTATON so the egg's internal bubble is on top where you pierce the shell.....easy to do because needle is built into the little measuring cup ......some buyers don't read the Hints and directions and so load their eggs wrong, pierce into egg goo, plugging the hole, and complain on posts that the eggs erupted and made a mess.....I have never had this problem, likely due to proper egg storage and loading orientation. EASY. I am an automotive engineer and this gizmo was VERY WELL thought out by someone.Read full review

I "like" the product, EXCEPT, no matter what I do, I get way too many cracked eggs. I load them with the pointed side downward - and the broad side up and pierced with a hole as instructed. And I have tried, multiple times, to set my portable kitchen alarm at various time settings, hoping to not have a third of my eggs cracked. Cracked eggs disturbs me because I want to store them (about 10 per week) without compromising the inner egg whites and yolks. Why are they cracking like that? I use Organic Brown eggs, if that means anything. Heck, I might as well go back to my small pot and use the stove top burner. I would love to give this product 5 stars - but, I believe the watts are just too high. I should mention that I set my portable timer for (only) 13 minutes, and then remove the eggs into a bath bowl of ice cubes and water, and on to the fridge. I wear hearing aids, and cannot hear the alarm on the Cuisinart. If I did not set the timer for 13 minutes, then the egg cooker would continue to cook for several more minutes, and no doubt result in more CRACKS. Dang !!!Read full review

We love this little unit, it is and does everything as advertised. Omelets, pouched, and best of all hard boiled to perfection. The best part, the steam allows for the shells to peel off so easy, sometimes in one piece. I can peel ten hard boiled jumbos in ten minutes. We don't mind being asked to do the deviled eggs for a party anymore!

This little egg cooker, cooks as advertised. It has a well thought out design, expect to use it for a long time. You will have to experiment a little to get the exact results you want. I had to cut way down on the water, for the very soft, soft boiled eggs I like. I love it.

I read a Chicago Tribune article, Top 5 Best Egg Cookers For 2021. They considered 56 models, consulted over 200 consumers; they rated this Cuisinart Egg Central as "without question the best on the market". After using it for a few weeks, I have to agree, it's awesome. I love it! Much post-purchase satisfaction. It'll cook up to 10 eggs at once hard, med, or soft, in the shell; poach up to 4 at once in a little tray, or an omelette in another tray. Well made, durable, good looking product. Not allowed to link the article here, but if you want to read it just search Chicago Tribune egg cooker review
