Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster 4716 Egg Cooker

Customer Review: An oldie but goodie
Summary: 5 Stars

I have this product from about 25 years ago. It has been wonderful for all of those years and still works. So...I bought one for our now-grown daughter to give as a Christmas present. I'm assuming that the updated version will be just as great as the older version.

Customer Review: Another lid melted..
Summary: 1 Stars

Just like many other 1 star reviews here, the lid melted today and created a horrible smell in the whole house. This product should be recalled. I'm sure houses or kitchens will burn down because of this product, if it hasn't already. It doesn't matter that this is a 'good' product when you risk your life and safety of yourself and your family.

Customer Review: Another one melts!
Summary: 1 Stars

I too am the victim of a this egg cooker which did not shut off and melted the top which fused to the machine. I was making eggs for Easter dinner and when I came in from outside the smell was horrible. I tossed the entire egg cooker in the trash as I could not even pry it open. I never thought about contacting them until I was going to order a new one and read other reviews where this appears to be a serious problem with this cooker. I purchased mine in late 2005 and only use it 2-3 times a year.....so this makes about the 10th time it has been used. I sent a inquiry to Oster and there response back to me was that it has a 1 year warrenty and since I can not produce the product there is nothing they will do. I can tell you I will not make the same mistake by buying this product again. Up until it melted, I would have highly recommended it as it made perfect hard boiled eggs. I recommended to Oster that there needs to be a safety recall on this product!

Customer Review: Appreciation of actions by Amazon
Summary: 1 Stars

The product was a total failure but when I returned it, Amazon is in the process of refunding my money. I will continue to use Amazon

Customer Review: Awesome Product!
Summary: 5 Stars

So many people don't know what they're missing! This is a FABULOUS product! I had a Sunbeam egg cooker for over 20 years, which finally died. I searched high and low for the exact same cooker and this product was the closest, well actually the same product but with improvement. I really like the automatic shut off feature. This was very important to me, as I'm not one to stand around to watch eggs cook! I like the see-through lid. If you want to watch, you can tell if the poached eggs are almost done or not. And let me tell you about the poached eggs this cooker makes - YUM! Cooks them perfectly! IF I wanted the poached egg yolks real runny, I could add less water and IF I wanted the poached eggs cooked with totally solid yolk, I could add more water slightly over the fill level. The water fill levels are easy - no measuring cups needed. The only feature I miss is being able to unplug the cord from the unit to store inside, but, oh well!

Again, I love this unit! I even travel with it. I highly recommend it.
