Snips - Microwave EGG POACHER and Omelette Maker - Poached Egg Maker Microwave - 0.75 LT - 24 x 12.5 x 6 cm - Microwave Egg Steamer, White and red - 100% Made in Italy - 0% BPA

One thing I really like is the size: it comfortably fits two eggs plus an extra egg white, which is perfect if you’re trying to add a bit more protein without overcomplicating things. Cleaning is also a breeze. It doesn’t stick much at all, so a quick rinse (or into the dishwasher) and it’s ready to go again. It’s such a simple tool, but it makes preparing eggs incredibly quick and hassle-free, especially in the morning before going to work. You just crack the eggs in, pop it in the microwave, and within a couple of minutes you have perfectly cooked eggs — no mess, no fuss. I’ve used it multiple times now, and it’s been consistently reliable. Overall, a great kitchen gadget if you want a fast, convenient way to make poached eggs or omelettes without using a pan. Highly recommended!

Good solid product and easy to make great fuss free pasta. For a quick trial run I put approximately 180 grams of pasta and about one litre of water into the Pasta Maker and cooked it in my 900 watt Microwave for 10 minutes and then let it stand for a minute. Pasta came out just perfect for me. Washing up was a breeze with a little soapy water and then a good rinse Wonderful, no steamed up kitchen and no pan to scrub. Just two things to look out for. Firstly it’s quite a large pot so check the measurements and ensure that it fits into your microwave. Max width, including the handles, is about 27cm and max height about 16 cm. Secondly the lid doesn’t clip on so you have to hold the lid in place whilst draining. No problem for most people but if you have problems with your hands it might be better to dig out the old colander to drain it. Really pleased with this product, does exactly what it says on the pot – fuss free easy pasta.

This is a great way to leave pasta unattended and fuss free whilst cooking. I have had no issues with boiling over or foam as others have suggested, even when boiling the maximum amount of pasta. It's easy to clean and is made from good quality materials. It saves on washing up, boiling over and has a very handy strainer lid. However, the timings in the leaflet are not right. I assume they have not allowed for cold water (which they specify). So my first batch was very undercooked. I now add 25% extra time on the specified time, and the pasta turns out absolutely fine. This does mean it takes longer to cook pasta than on the stove, but the convenience is worth it.

Great product plenty of capacity in two trays. Never usef one of these before but use all the time now

I had a religious epiphany when using this as an egg poacher, and now find myself a full believer in the concepts of karma and samsara, because I must have done something truly horrific in past lives so that I can only atone by using this as an egg poacher. Every egg poached is a new experience for how long it will actually take, and how cooked or rubbery said eggs will be when I finally fish them out of the poacher. One experience which is universal is how long it will take me to clean up all the escaped egg white from the poaching basket and the base, and sometimes even the microwave itself. It is genuinely easier to poach eggs in a pan of boiling water. Please don’t torture yourself like I am doomed to by buying this to poach eggs. On the plus side, it’s quicker to make an omelette in this than in a pan. So three stars for helping me to accumulate enough karma to escape the cycle of rebirth, and I can at least have speedy omelettes in the meantime.

I'm not interested in omelettes, I bought this just to poach eggs. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. After three attempts and four ruined eggs I gave up and sent it back. Life is too short!

Useful for omelettes. The lid does not stay locked on with mine but that’s not a real issue. I tried poaching eggs and it seems useless at that (it created an impressive mess). Omelettes are fine though. You have to experiment a couple of times to find the right settings for your microwave.

Worth the purchase
