I thought this product seemed like a good idea...until I tried it!
I found this item on Yardsellr.com. It's a website that is basically a yard sale on the Internet. I'm hooked on that site! This is one of three items I've purchased from that site since I joined about 2 weeks ago! I got a great deal on this! I only paid $2.46. Eggies is a hard boiled egg system. Check out the info video here Eggies |
These are the parts for one egg container.
So multiply this times 6. |
 |
| You pour the egg into each container. |
 |
| One large egg inside. |
This product is suppose to make it easier to make hard boiled eggs because there's no eggshells to peel. But preparing and cleaning the 6 egg containers is a bit of a pain. I oiled mine, but the eggs still stuck to the container! I was able to loosen them with a tiny baby spoon. It took 17 minutes to cook but I think I would cook them a little longer because they weren't cooked completely through. Maybe I'll add another minute next time. I usually cook my hard boiled eggs for 13 minutes when I make them the traditional way.

| Place into boiling water |
They looked cute floating around in the pot! They need to cool off before opening because there's a little bit of hot water inside each egg container that spills out as soon as you un-screw it...yes, that's what happened to me.
 |
| After they are cooked |
I like my eggs cooked completely through, not like this one in the picture.
 |
| Slightly under cooked after 17 min. |
 |
Egg gets stuck in the threading and on these rubber rings,
making it difficult to clean all the pieces.
|
And I'm just not too thrilled about the shape! I like full oval shaped hard boiled eggs!I'm just glad I didn't pay more than $3.00 for this.Does anyone out there want to buy a slightly used Eggies for $2.46 plus shipping?
