Hi Carl I am so sorry it took me awhile to answer your question. But yes large eggs work in this product just fine we use that size the majority of the time its quick and easy to use we love it, just make sure to put enough water in the base so that the eggs cook completely through I hope this helps.

Yes. I always use large size eggs. One tip I learned through trial and error though is that you want to cool the eggs after cooking at room temperature. Don't chill them immediately to stop the cooking or they will be underdone.

Yes I use jumbo eggs all the time and it works well. Just have to cook a little longer

It shuts off when the water is all boiled out. You can use any size of eggs however you may want to make a fine adjustment on the amount of water based on different egg sizes. I live over 6000 ft above sea level so had to make water adjustments for that also as water boils much quicker here. This does work better for me than some higher priced ones due to the altitude

I find that I get my best results if I remove them almost immediately and put them in cold water, to prevent overcooking. Of course you have to be very careful as the eggs and cooker are hot! I have tried leaving them in the cooker till almost cool (not sure how long that took) but they seem to end up overcooked.

I could fit 17 eggs, but my younger hen turkey lays the equivalent to an ex large chicken egg.Hope this helps. Brenda

We have a variety of egg sizes and all fit, jumbo size is tight but they close without issue. Ex-large is really what they are made for.

That's all I've used since I got the thing for Christmas. Just make sure you get the unit hot before pouring in the eggs, and don't go crazy with the amounts. Just use the equivalent of one egg. For Egg Beaters that's 1/4 cup.

I think you can! I have never personally done that but I think it could be done. I would be careful not to fill the pot w/ 2 much water since it is a small pan; just cover the egg with just enough water.

You can safely use 5 eggs. Any more than that I think the eggs might not cook sufficiently on top without burning the bottom.

Yes. You want to use a little butter or some type of oil. Make sure you use low-to-medium heat, and just the right amount of heat so that the eggs cook but not so much that it will scorch the eggs. You may have to play around with the heat settings to find out the right amount for your stove and this pan.

I have not measured the cup per mark.. What I did do was, find my sweet spot for hard boiled and poached eggs. Then mark that spot with a thin black marker. Easily makes perfect eggs for me every time. Both hard boiled and poached. One of the best egg cookers I have tried.. Richard Faller BBT

I have used egg whites, just be sure not to use more than 1/4 cup and cook for the full 5 minutes.

I use jumbo, and extra large eggs, and it works just fine. Just remember to kind of hold on to the egg with your other hand...flying soft boiled eggs can be dangerous..

Try using distilled water. We had that problem until we started using distilled water to steam the eggs.

From what I know of the average size of the plastic eggs, no. They would be much larger :)

In my experience with this pan, extra- large eggs are the limit and even then it's almost too full. Large eggs seem to work the best.

I know you can soft boil 7 eggs at a time. you can poach at least 1 but maybe 2 in the special dish.
