DASH Rapid Egg Cooker: 6 Egg Capacity Electric Egg Cooker for Hard Boiled Eggs, Poached Eggs, Scrambled Eggs, or Omelets with Auto Shut Off Feature - Aqua, 5.5 Inch (DEC005AQ)

I picked up this Rapid Egg Cooker to simplify my mornings, and I’m mostly impressed with how it delivers. It’s a compact little gadget that can boil or poach eggs in minutes—no more watching a pot on the stove. The design is sleek and doesn’t take up much counter space, which is a big plus for my small kitchen. It comes with a measuring cup for water (key for getting the cook right) and trays for boiling, poaching, or even making a small omelet. My first batch of hard-boiled eggs came out perfectly cooked, and peeling them was easier than usual—huge win!What I love most is the convenience. I can toss in up to six eggs, set it, and walk away without worrying about timing. The buzzer at the end is loud enough to hear from another room, so no overcooking mishaps. It’s been a game-changer for quick breakfasts or meal prep.I’d recommend this Rapid Egg Cooker to anyone who loves eggs but hates the hassle. It’s not flawless, but it’s reliable and saves time.

This little Dash egg cooker works just like the company says and it is much easier to make my poached eggs in this instead of getting out the pot and little egg holders, way too many big things involved that way and more cleanup. It makes hard boiled eggs great and they do peal a lot easier.It shuts off when the water has boiled out and it plays a little ditty to let you know. It is a good idea to push the button in before you unplug it or it will start heating up as soon as you plug it back in the next time.The plate does get hot fairly quickly and if you have hard water like me, I live in the country and have a well, you need to make sure you clean it right away or it will have calcium buildup that you will have to scrub with warm water and baking soda to get off.And something else, the dome lid is a little hard to get off at first, it’s like it’s vacuumed sealed or something but if you wait 30 seconds or so it will come off easier. The accessories that come with it are made of good sturdy plastic and it’s is best to spray them with cooking spray before you use them, easier to get the eggs out and easier clean up. The cord is 32 inches long. I really like this and do recommend it :)

Cute egg cooker. Fast and easy to make hard boiled eggs. Found that more water is needed (above the top line) and then waited 5 minutes before removing from the cooker. Place in cold ice water to stop them from cooking. Easy to peel and eat them right away! Very economical!

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.
