Eh... eggs stick... and they’re flimsy
I bought these for use in my instant pot. And mainly to cook a hard-boiled egg if you will call it, without having to remove the shell after being cooked since this is such a pain. The first use even with oil added to the inside of the silicone cup resulted in egg sticking to it. And it’s actually not that easy to wash out eggs sticks and it sticks good! Also, I bought them so that I could crack in egg place it in the cup and place it in the instant pot. Well, first of all their tipsy Turvey so be careful because they turn Over/spill easily. So instead of trying that first on the counter and placing them into the instant pot, I would then place them on the trivet in the instant pot and then crack the egg and put the egg in there. However they still easily pour over or fall to the side causing the egg to fall into the Insta pot water then you have to clean out your Insta pot even more than you would’ve had to you if they didn’t do this so instead of trying that first on the counter and placing them into the instant pot, I would then place them on the trivet in the instant pot and then crack the egg and put the egg in there.

Simple, fast, useful.
I wanted some Eggs Benedict and bought a set of these silicone egg poachers. They work pretty well and, despite the odd shape, they sit upright without support.First, give them a shot of cooking spray or smear some olive oil to keep the egg from sticking. I microwave eggs, so instructions indicate to pierce the yolk and add a tablespoon of water. My typical 1000 watt microwave takes about 45 seconds for a single egg, though you need to adjust the time for multiple cups.The result isn't as pretty or smooth as when using an old-fashioned boiling cooker--the egg tends to look pretty lumpy and you need to pour off the hot water afterwards, but the taste is fine.Despite the oil, I always need to scrape a bit of residue out of the cup before putting them in the dishwasher. (Yes, dishwasher safe!)Useful, compact items, but they aren't as good as the old fashioned boiling cooker. Four stars.

When you put the cups in the pot of boiling water. I recommend only putting enough water to cover a inch of the bottom...once the water gets into the cups good bye egg. Was trying to replicate sous vide egg bites from starbucks... kept having the water over flow in the cups. The cups are nice and resilient. Recommended grabbing cups with tongs, a lot of my eggs flop out using the loop the hole with a fork method. The eggs that survive the boiling method didn't stick to cup. If they did stick the egg wasn't cook enough. Also recommend not to fill the container all the way. Spillage and higher chance of water slipping in

These are great!
Order a set a now make most eggs with them because they are so convenient and make clean up a breeze. Be sure to coat the inside - a shot of cooking spray works well. The eggs come out easily and clean-up is a breeze. I am ordering another set so I can make Eggs Benedict for a brunch crowd and extra sets for family members. We found they came in handy when traveling and we want a quick in-room meal. Many hotels have small kitchenettes and microwaves. When cooking the eggs in a microwave the trick is to prick the egg yolk and white first and then place a paper towel over them. The cooking time varies depending on quantity you are cooking and microwave power, generally about a minute for 1 egg at 50% power.

Great idea
Just what I expected, I have had two, that might have been the very first ones made, for years.They are easy to use , cut down on the mess, and are non toxic. They are also easy to throw in a suitcase.I just heat up a pan of water, coat the cup with coconut oil, add the egg and float them on top of the water until done. You can carefully add seasoning before you put the cup in the pan. By the time the coffee is made the eggs are done, flip them out and use the pan of hot water to clean the cups.

Good for busy mornings
I bought these to use in the microwave on busy mornings when it's hard to watch the stove, but nothing but an egg will do. They can also be used on the stove, but honestly, there's no real advantage to doing so vs the old fashioned way in a simmering pot with a spoon of vinegar added in. They arrived quickly with no problems and work well.

They Do What They're Designed To Do
These work as advertised but I decided they seem to be more work than I like. Cleaning them individually just didn't work after about the fifth time I used them. It's a very personal observation and some people may not mind. They work well at poaching and do what they are supposed to do. I just wouldn't personally purchase them again.

Wash very thoroughly before use
These are pretty good but you should definitely wash these 3-4 times before you use them. They left a pretty strong detergent taste on my eggs and ruined the first couple of eggs I tried. I also wish they were a little more rigid. They're kinda floppy and it's easy to spill the eggs out of them if you aren't holding them well.
