When you read the instructions on the INSIDE of the box, you realize you have to put four different pieces together - per egg! But before you do that, you have to lightly oil each piece, so that the eggs don't stick to them... er... really?
Okay, it'll at least be fun to try, right?
So, I oil all the pieces, and start TRYING to thread them together... but the moldings are pretty cheap, and there is a fair amount of flashing (plastic that leaked out) that makes it difficult to thread. Some threads ended up cross-threading, some I couldn't get together all the way. And remember - there are two different threaded sets you need to join. Yes, that's per egg!
I finally mastered the assembly as best I could, after making a slight mess of getting the eggs in some of them (I am apparently not dexterous enough for this experiment), and then was ready to cook them.
But wait - you can't actually put them in the boiling water - you have to start them out in warm water, and then bring it to a boil. And you have to make sure the Eggie's remain upright and can't touch the bottom (they do seem to float). It was a bit disconcerting to see some egg quickly cooking loose in the water, but then I realized that it was probably the dribble from trying to get the eggs through the small top hole. No worries, I like making egg-drop soup, so this is cool... except that it is a pain to clean off of the pan later.
After the recommended 15 minutes of boiling (seems kind of long, compared to the old fashion way) I finally took the Eggies out of the water to cool.
Coming back after a while, they were cool enough to open, which I did - and that was more frustrating than peeling regular eggs! Arrg! So not only do I have a big mess of parts to clean up after half an hours work, but I have boiled eggs that look like they've been cut in half - because, unless you use goose eggs (maybe Ostrich?) regular large eggs only fill the container half full, and that is of course how they cook. This is no big deal if you are going to make egg salad or such, but if you're looking for something that actually looks like a normal 'whole' boiled egg - you better look elsewhere.
Bottom line - this is definitely a Rube Goldberg device. If the fun of the journey is what you're after, go ahead and blow a few bucks on these (as long as you get free shipping). But otherwise, save your money and find some other way of getting your eggs peeled. As for me? I'm going to hire the neighbor kids - it's cheaper and less frustrating.
