Chicken bald back

[bluekarin]

anyone got one of these linkydink ? I have been thinking about getting one for a while, but the reviews are mixed on Amazon, so thought I'd ask the Omlet font of all knowledge, well of that that is important , if its worth it.

I have one, I've used only a couple of times but it's worked for me. I'm glad I bought it anyway.

It's not given off a horrible smell then? Some of the reviewers said it have off a plasticy smell, which smelt a bit like burnt plastic. I love soft boiled eggs but I either do them rock hard, or the white is still breathing

No, I got mine from Omlet and haven't noticed a horrible smell at all. The reviewers aren't smelling boiled egg are they? I boiled eggs yesterday with them. It said 'soft' and I thought, surely, they haven't been in there long enough yet. So I waited til the timer got to soft/medium, thinking I'd still get soft eggs. Guess what I got - soft/medium eggs! I also like my poachers.

I bought one in Germany a few years ago and it does the job perfectly.

 

As long as the eggs you are using are roughly the same size as the timer, it works a treat. Larger eggs need a bit more time (obviously)

I have one and it didn't leave a plastic smell until JS left the pan to boil dry and the it almost welded itself to the bottom. Still works perfectly though

I love it. Perfect eggs - you just need to learn where on the inidcator is perfect for you

That's a good price! I've seen them for a lot more.

 

I had one years ago from Poundland, it worked well but I gave it to a charity sale at work. Didn't ever notice a smell of burnt plastic

She comes running into the kitchen when it starts clucking and shouts "dippy eggy ready"
