So let's be honest, this is a dumpy little microwave omelet maker.

That said, I love it. Mine broke pretty early on and now is just two seperate pieces, but still works great. I use Egg Beaters and pour some in with some veggies, toss it in the microwave for a few minutes, go get dressed, and when I come back i've got breakfast. And i've even tried making the traditional omelet with cheese in between the two parts and it's not a problem at all. Best part is, if you want you can eat it right out of the pan.

Cleanup seriously takes about 15 seconds: water, soap, scrub, done.

This product is why I can actually eat eggs the way I want every morning.

This is a GREAT microwave appliance; it makes very good omelets with no fuss, AND it cleans up easily afterward--an important consideration.
Great for elderly and/or disabled people who have problems with other appliances. The omelet is a good single-serving size, and takes a decent amount of "fillings."
Just remember to make the omelets without the usual cookbook directions calling for added milk/water!

This is my favorite kitchen "gadget" by far. I can easily mix up 3 eggs in a mixer, pour the egg into each side of the omelet maker and cook it for 1.5 minute. When that part is done I put a slice of cheese on each side (while it's still open) then I microwave it again for about 30 seconds.

I take it out of the microwave and shut the omelet maker - cheese stays in the middle and there's no spilling. I can either eat my omelet out of the omelet maker or slide it (it really is that non-stick!) straight into a plate.

It's very non-stick. I wish more things were like this. Super easy cleanup, even when the cheese spills over.

Purchased a few months ago and it's still in great shape, we use it at least 5 times a week.

Well worth the money!

I ordered this as a replacement for a similar item that I purchased a number of years ago in a dollar store. It is much higher quality plastic and is truly non-stick. The instructions for making the omelet come with it. The method is simple only needing the times to be adjusted for the user's microwave strength. The result is a perfectly cooked and formed omelet.

First mixed in water with the eggs and the times they suggest worked perfectly. But the eggs tasted a little bland so tried mixing in 1/2 and 1/2 with eggs and voila!! best omelets I've ever had! Needed to adjust the times lower and am using 70, 45, 20 instead of the 90, 60, 30.

Ooops almost forgot to mention, I'm only using 2 eggs. Not the 3 the directions recommend.

If you really mix (very vigorously) the cream and the eggs, this will fluff into an omelet like no other. This thing is just incredible. No more slow cooking it on a stove, no more worrying if you'll be able to flip it over without losing half of it. If you have the toppings ready, the fully cooked omelet will be ready in less the 5 mins :)

Wanted to Add: (9/01/11), there's an easy way to get these out of the omelet maker, if you haven't already thought of it. After the last step (with it closed), place it on something like a cutting board and open it up. Leave open for 20 to 30 seconds and let it cool down.

Then, with it open, put one hand underneath the part that has the omelet in it. Quickly (as these things are still hot) put your large flat plate on top of the part with the omelet. Now just flip both over quickly. Voila! perfect omelet everytime!

This maybe one of the best purchases I have made for my kitchen. Using this omelet maker is way way easier than trying make an omelet the old fashioned way in a skillet not to mention much much faster. Clean up for this thing is fast and easy as well. I highly recommend it.

My sis gave this to me. I can count the number of times I've made Omelets on the hand of a clumsy shop teacher. This product is an excellent omelet maker. I put some turkey bacon in it, some onion and seasoning. I melted some cheese on top (forgot to put it inside). It took about 6 minutes. I will say that the hinges aren't very good. You don't close it until it's done anyway so hinges be not an issue. Enjoy your breakfast!

Bought this one at the same time as the KittAmor Microwave Omelette Maker. This one (Progressive) is superior, mainly because of the two handles. When you pull it out of the microwave, the larger handles are cool enough to touch right away. On the KittArmor model, the smaller handles are hot and uncomfortable to touch. The omelettes they make taste the same.

Interestingly, the KittArmor model included a better recipe. Here's ours: three eggs, two tablespoons milk, lots of mushrooms and cheese. 90 seconds, add toppings, 70 seconds, close lid, 10 seconds, always on high power. Our new 1250 watt microwave is more powerful than most, so you may have to adjust your times accordingly.

The reviewers who said this makes rubbery omelettes probably had low-power microwaves, or poorly functioning ones. They seem to wear out after a while, although our last one made it to 15 years.

Five stars for making great omelettes, no points deducted for not including milk in the recipe.

I honestly haven't used this in a while. I rather have quality pan cooked eggs, but it worked when I needed to make something quick in the morning. It takes 5 minutes and your set. I think I had 4 or 5 eggs in there and it cooked all the way through. Great idea for college students who don't have a kitchen and need a quick meal before class.

This is a simple piece of plastic, but it helps to make a perfect omelet in the microwave. You cannot overload it with too many ingredients because it is not big enough. However, when used as directed, it delivers the goods flawlessly.
