Maverick SEC-2 Henrietta Hen Egg Cooker, White

Eggs boiled and poached, and those boughten legally ...? Ol' Henrietta keeps on cluckin', though she never did cackle on completion. We're still buds all the same.

Easy to use, so cute! Great eggs everytime

Love this little clucker - though, as noted by another reviewer, it doesn't actually cluck or cheep - it beeps. Eggcellent product - does exactly what it says it will do and does a great job. I have a couple of eggs for breakfast most mornings and it's so nice to put them in Henrietta and know that they'll be perfect and I don't have to keep an eye on them or wonder if they're done. Hint: warm the eggs for a few minutes in the shell in a bowl of hot water, before using them for poached - that way the egg white will cook more quickly and you won't over-cook the yolks. I've been using Henrietta for a couple of months now and use it 3-4 times a week. Just this morning I whipped up a batch of scrambled eggs with ham and cheese. Just put the mixture evenly into the egg poaching tray, be sure to spray with cooking spray, and cook on the hardboiled egg "setting". Fantastic! I usually turn it on when I get into the shower and they're done by the time my hair is dry. Pop them into a container to take with me to work for breakfast at my desk. Still love it - still works beautifully - wouldn't cook my soft or hard boiled eggs any other way. They always come of perfect and they always come out of the shell easily.

I like this item for poached eggs. It is nice because you can poach 4 eggs at at a time. This is my second Henrietta poacher the previous one quit working after 10 yrs of use.

I first made 4 poached eggs. You are instructed to fill water to the second "oval" on the bottom of the base. My husband likes soft poached, I like firmer poached. Even for him, the eggs were liquid. What I will do different next time: fill water to the third oval, then disconnect when it gives its alarm, and cover with a towel. It has steam holes on the top. This should keep it warm and help it to stabilize until we are ready to eat. I made 3 hard-boiled eggs. I did as instructed and filled to the third oval for hard-boiled eggs. I used the pin on the base to poke the big ends of the eggs - it doesn't leak, and cooked as instructed. Once the alarm sounded, I disconnected and then put a towel on top for a few minutes until I was ready to eat. The eggs were perfect hard boiled and in a short amount of time. I definitely like this and will use it a lot. It is simple enough my husband can use it. It is easy to clean, as always, wipe the base out with a clean towel but don't submerge. PS My cat isn't allowed on the countertop, but she had to investigate the sound. It doesn't cluck, but it makes a small alarm clock type of noise.
