Chef Buddy Microwave Egg Maker, Healthy Breakfast Cooking Utensil

Love this purchase. Two perfect eggs in 75 seconds with zero oil. Thanks for making breakfast effortless.

This works great! Worth every penny. 45 seconds (no instructions with it so I followed what other reviewers suggested) and the egg comes out perfect. No nonstick spray necessary. Egg pops right out and clean up is a breeze. Highly recommend especially for egg sandwiches.

We all know why we’re here, we want to microwave ourselves a sad little breakfast, this thing does that. Rather well in fact. I’m a two-egg man (not that I’m bragging) and this handles my requirements perfectly (three eggers can be accommodated but not happily). However this lil gems true value lies in its ability to harness shock and delight. I have found that “Brad’ the egg making utensil will randomly ‘explode’ your eggs for you. I haven’t exactly figured out the calculus on this. If I fail to pierce the egg yolks then there is a wonderful chance it will happen. If I pierce the yolks and Brad is in a mood, BLAM! Some explosions are small, just forceful enough to pop the lid up but not disperse any egg. But definitely loud enough to wake your spouse, significant other or ‘overnight friend’ (we in the microwave egg community needn’t judge each other). But if the stars align, Brad (yes I named my egg maker) will emit a gloriously loud and powerful explosion that DOES disburse egg throughout the interior of your radar range. However Brad is a thoughtful thing, as the egg shrapnel will be fully cooked and easily removed. Right now you’re thinking “but I don’t want my eggs to be exploded” LIAR! If you visited IHOP and the wait staff asked if you wanted your eggs to be “scrambled, over easy or exploded” you know darn well you wouldn’t sleep that night if you didn’t ask for yours to be exploded. But wait Mr Reviewer why didn’t you just spray some oil on Brad and that would eliminate the possibility of explosion. Dear Reader, I have experimented with different oils, bargain eggs/cage free eggs, cheese/no cheese, scrambled/no scramble… all to no avail. Brad is in charge here, surrender to Brad’s whims and desires. You will be rewarded. On the plentiful ‘no explosion mornings’ cleanup is fast and easy, yet sad. On the 'explosion mornings’ your bond with Brad is strengthened and cleanup is an act of love. Looking at my spreadsheet it appears that the vast majority of explosions occur when the eggs are hot but haven’t fully congealed yet, in the range of 45-55 seconds after microwaves have been initiated. You have been warned. Practical advice: I find that two large eggs cook with a lil ‘runniness’ in the center (if you like to sop up with toast) right at 1 minute. Your eggs will firm up quickly in the next 10 seconds or so. I’m unsure of the wattage of my microwave, however it’s off-white in color and located above the off-white stove.

very good 👍

Easy and Quick. The egg did stick a little bit but when I shook it it came right out. The next time I put a little bit of butter (didn’t have spray oil) and had no sticking. Easy to clean!!

This egg cooker does work, and survives the dishwasher. I bought two and use them regularly. Areas for improvement: (1) some kind of instruction sheet suggesting such basics as how many eggs to cook at a time would be useful. I have a feeling that the device has capabilities I’ve not thought of yet. That should be easy to do, the next is harder (2) it’s difficult to get the eggs evenly done — they can be hard cooked around the edge while still liquid in the middle. Finally I’ve settled on cooking 2 eggs for one minute — that makes them a little firmer than I would like, but thoroughly cooked. Basically, I’m satisfied— and might even buy another one — but I could be happier. Maybe this should be four stars; I don’t know.

I actually bought this for my visually impaired mom who is 84 years old. She loved it! It was easy for her to use and to clean. This is such a blessing for her to be able to cook for herself and keep her independence.

Simple device I use with liquid egg to get nice fluffy scrambled egg in about a minute. Slides right out n easy to clean the egg maker and let it air dry. No muss no fuss
