...depends on how much I want to spend money on tat, and how many useless items my kitchen can hold - so, no!

...and why would anyone want two?

I could peel an egg quicker myself - and in any case it doesn't even peel the egg completely. If you watch the video on that link there is still shell on the bottom of the egg!!

It's one of the silliest gadgets I've seen.

Kath ~ I couldn't be bothered looking at the video lol

Saw another weird one last week, a combo toaster & egg cooker :-S

If we bought all the gadgets we'd need another house to keep them in.

There was one being demonstrated in Bridget Jones' Diary I believe.

Not for me, too much effort.

Hm.

I have a gadget for breaking eggs!

I bought it because I was going to get Fred to do a fried egg to go with his oven chips when I was being a particularly good carer and abandoning him for the day to cope alone with his one hand.

You put an egg in the thing and hit it on something hard as I recall. Then I think you open it up, can't remember now.

Fred had one useful hand but I bet there wee plenty of people with two perfectly good ones who felt they needed one as soon as they saw it.

Anyway, he had sausages with his oven chips so we never did use it.

Great idea but needs tweeking a bit.

Useful for people who have difficulty with fiddly jobs.
