Poached eggs: delicious to eat but intimidating to cook.until now. We created our Silicone Egg Poacher to help you quickly and easily create perfectly poached eggs - eggs worthy of sharing in real life and on social media. We looked at the traditional (and painstaking) water bath poaching method for inspiration, but designed the Poacher for modern cooks with a little more on their plate. The high-heat resistant silicone body cradles the eggs while the funnel shape guides them into the water to prevent the yolk from breaking. A carefully designed hole pattern optimizes water flow around eggs for even cooking. When they're ready, use the handy tab to safely remove the Poacher from the water. With helpful fill lines show just how much water to use and collapsible, compact storage, you're sure to make eggs that are as pretty as a picture. For best result please see images directions.

Title: Finally, poached eggs at home!
Review: I have had several other egg “poachers” that really produce steamed eggs. However this device produces true poached eggs… they taste different as they are actually cooked in the water. And you don’t need the skill a professional chef requires to swirl water and drop the egg in. The egg does spread a bit but my professionally trained friends say that is common even when they make them the traditional way and it is often necessary to trim the edges if you want poached eggs to look perfect.

Title: Easy poached eggs
Review: We enjoy a nice soft boiled egg or poached egg, and have successfully made both in the past, but I saw this OXO product and decided to give it a try. They do work, and make the process of poaching an egg super easy. If you’ve ever been intimidated at the idea of poaching eggs, you should definitely try this product. The poachers are bigger than I expected, so to allow them to sit in the pot (without crowding), and to get the appropriate water level (there’s a water line mark on the poachers), I used a stock pot. The “cage” part of the poacher keeps the egg corralled while it sets, which I think is the biggest benefit of using this product (no need to swirl, etc.). Cleanup is easy - the poachers wash up easily and can be “folded” into themselves (forming a cup shape) for compact storage. FYI, there will still be egg white residue in the cooking pot, just like with the normal egg poaching process. You might need to experiment with cook time (a guide is included with the product) to get the exact cook you prefer. We cooked large eggs for 3.25 minutes (timing started when eggs were dropped into the simmering water) and had nice soft eggs to top our ramen bowls. Nice gadget!

Title: These things are easy and predicable every time.
Review: I don't understand how anyone can be having any trouble with these at all. Every attempt was perfect.I made two eggs,, I made 3 eggs (using2 cups) and with and without both oiling the pan and using vinegar.Flawless.I have an old GE LP gas stove and a 6 quart stainless pan filled to about 3 quarts, slightly above the hole in the egg cup as directed. The worst thing is heating the water which takes about 10-12 minutes to reach 200-205 degrees. I PAM the bottom of the stainless pan which is essential in this pan. Vinegar is not but it is better to use it for more congealed white and clearer water.3 minute 30 seconds at 200-210 degrees to perfection as recommended in the instructions for runny yolksAt 3 minutes I remove the cups and using a flexible metal spatula, in my case, I loosen the egg from the pan bottom, it has slightly adhered making sure to skim the pan bottom. Let them time out at 3:30 and take them out.At this point with the temp having been turned down to maintain that temp range previously, one can reinsert the cups and pour fresh eggs and restart the timer. I break my eggs into small Pyrex cups ahead of time. One can crank out eggs every 4 minutes or so beyond that.Great product with only one exception. If they were slightly smaller at the perforated base, one could get them into a lot more pans that the one I use. You really need a pan pushing 8 flat inches across the bottom to use more than one. I am debating buying a 3qt wide saucepan to heat water faster. There was no need to make the perforated base quite this wide Otherwise great product. I just rinse them and throw them in the dish drainer..

Title: Hmmmm... not too sure about these
Review: Pay close attention to the level of water in the pot. These will float if you have too much water in the pot. They don't contain the egg super well, even with the recommended use of vinegar. They are ok, but not wonderful.

Title: Poach perfect eggs every time!
Review: A bit of context: from my background in Computer Science, I have been indoctrinated by the "Unix Philosophy" and one of its most important rules is that you want to strive, for a product, that it "Do One Thing and Do It Well." I think this explains my approach to the kitchen fairly well: yes, I am guilty of collecting "one-trick pony" appliances such as this one. Naturally, thus, I am a big fan of OXO, since this is exactly what they are doing. If you are on this page, maybe you feel the same way.In that case, I won't try to convince you that you need this, but that it does a really good job.I love the idea of "breakfast" but in our daily lives I just never find the time to sit down in the morning, and make what I traditionally think of as breakfast, or brunch (eggs, in particular poached, are a strong feature—perhaps because I eat mostly vegan otherwise). This item has helped to make breakfast easier because it makes poaching eggs a can't-go-wrong endeavor. I can do this straight from out of bed before I have woken up.The procedure sounds long, but once you've done it once, you can do it eyes closed:1) Fill in a pan with water up to the indicated level.2) Bring to a boil, then put on simmer.3) Add a splash of white vinegar into the opening (optional, but highly recommended).4) Crack an egg in a bowl and pour it in the opening (some might be courageous enough to crack over the opening, but not me).5) Wait a fixed amount of time (for my pasture-raised jumbo eggs, this is between 4 min. and 4:30 min—by the way, some reviews mention that size is an issue, maybe I do not notice this because I use jumbo eggs).6) Pull the poacher out (can do with bare fingers because it is silicon).7) Use a slotted spoon to fish the poached egg out, drain it, and place it on some paper towel (you can also delicate remove the strands of cooked yoke that may look messy).The result is perfect, I find (or at least superior to what I could do on my own). Attached is a picture of my first poached eggs, used for an avocado toast (OK, so I'm a millennial, sue me! :-).Final thoughts:— If like me, you do not yet have a slotted spoon, you might want to get one, such as OXO Good Grips Nylon Slotted Spoon. (Nylon is a good choice if you may end up using this with non-stick cookware.)— These fold onto themselves and can be stacked atop another, so as to take only a quarter of the space.— If like me, you love avocado toasts, perhaps you can compromise, save on brunch, but allow yourself the opulent decadence of also owning this tool OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer, Green, or go on ahead and buy the combined pack (these OXO people sure are attentive to consumer demand, they were AFAIK, the first to market such a combo!).--PS: If you found this review useful, chances are there'll be a day I'll stumble on one of your reviews and find it useful too! Thank for in advance!

Title: Not worth it
Review: Takes a lot of water to use even one, because it's so tall. That makes it take a lot of time and energy to heat the water. Even with following instructions to use a little vinegar in the water, the egg goes everywhere and is a real mess to clean in the pan. Oxo makes really good products, so this was a disappointment.

Review: Love poached eggs but the always loose half the egg white in the water. These work perfectly, boil water, place cups in pan, crack eggs in cups, leave to cook DONE. No mess, no wastage, clean easily by just rinsing - Game changer. Perfect poached eggs every time.
