I recently suffered an injury, so the whole stir boiling water with vinegar and hope the white stays

The pot has a fill to water line and it only takes a few minutes to boil the water.

Steaming hot water is what you might expect

(I destroyed my last poacher by not adding enough water) the pan and cups are very easy to clean

You might be able to boil water in it safely, but I wouldn't trust it to heat up soup

takes about 5 mins after the water in the pans starts to boil and you end up with the perfect poach egg...

Second, the pan stains easily even if the water is not that "hard"

The pan is such thin metal that the water (you only need a half an inch tops) boils in about 90 seconds.

While pan still hot, rub water marks with light scrub pad

Seller checked with manufacturing possibly hard water.

I put enough water in the pan to touch the bottom of the egg cups then bring to a boil.

Add some water, light spray, when it is steaming, light olive oil spray, crack four eggs, set timer for 5 minutes

I will still have to dicker with correct water temp but overall a very easy skillet to use

After a few minutes of cooking, poured a tiny bit of hot water (from simmering kettle) on top of egg to make egg white firm on top

I have pure, double filtered water and I would suggest you skip this product as Cook-Pro is non responsive and I returned it to Amazon

why do I not need something like this clean up as

Works as it should.

Works as it is designed.

Don`t bother cooking without greasing the cups

n’t have to worry about your egg whites going

n’t be an easy clean up.

They really weren,t great looking and there was always water when put on toast/plate
