Cooking eggs has never been easier! Just plug it in and this Oster appliance cooks up to 8 hard, medium or soft eggs in a matter of minutes! Steam heat poaches up to 4 eggs. A light and signal alert you when the eggs are ready for serving; the egg cooker shuts itself off automatically. The nonstick, no-stain surface provides ease of cooking and quick cleanup. About Oster: in 1946, the first Osterizer Blender was introduced to kitchens across America. With its popularity came new products: the portable mixer, deep fryer, meat grinder and citrus juicer, each offering ease and convenience to people's busier than ever lifestyles.
