Product Description
The poachpod is a flexible silicone cooking tool for poaching eggs, baking and molding. The poachpod allows you to float and poach an egg in boiling water like a lily pad on a pond. When the egg is ready, flip the non-stick pod inside out and gently push the perfectly domed-shaped egg out. Place the pod in the dishwasher for easy clean up. Never be fearful of making poached eggs again…. More >>
Fusionbrands Poach Pods, Set of 2, Green
While this is certainly cleverly stylish, it just doesn’t work. The problem is basic design. Because the product is made of a silicon they are great at resisting heat – they won’t melt in your pan etc. But because they are so great at resisting heat they also are terrible at transferring it. The eggs never heat up! If you’re happy to wait all day for your two eggs to poach, while finally having to resort to pouring boiling water over them in order for the tops to cook then get this product. Otherwise, appreciate the design from afar and buy a traditional poacher.
Instructions say to oil the pods. Hmmm…These are supposed to be “poached!” If I want oil in my eggs, I’ll fry them. Eggs stick whether you oil these things or not. They are flimsy, unwieldy to handle, and hard to clean. Forget using the dishwasher, unless you have an attachement that holds small items. They’re too light, and fly all over the machine. I can’t think of one good thing to say about this item. Total waste of money and effort.
This is the worst product I have ever used, and reflects the lack of ethics of the distributor on various levels. When I finally saw this product, I was SHOCKED by the amount of time I waited to receive it, AND the ridiculous handling charges. These are two thin litle “skins” and using a standard stationery envelope is actually too big for them. When an egg is cracked into them, for heaven’s sake, don’t let a draft hit them, or they tip over, and the whole egg goes on the counter and is wasted. Then if you CAN get them into the already steaming pot (per their instructions) without getting a steam burn, you are indeed quick and agile! We won’t even talk about getting them out of the pot, then out of the pod “skin”! One of them tipped over while putting the pod in the pot, and when it was said and done…tasted better than the one in the pod, which gave the food a weird taste. Used 6 eggs total to give the product a fair shake! (Got one fair from it!)
Above all, the plain attempt to deceive by the distributor, was also clearly evidenced by the shipping and handling fee> A small envelope, and they can be RETURNED for one standard stamp! Don’t be fooled. I will never go to this distribulote again due to their obvious lack of integrity! I will also write Amazon, because this crap also affects their name.
The video is what really sold me on these pods. Seems like it takes
a little longer to get the eggs just right but overall very pleased
with the small mess and easy clean up.
Since purshasing ,I have used often with purfect poached eggs every time.Shipping was fast,I am happy with this item. G.B.
