KRUPS F23070 – Design and Overview
KRUPS appliances are always pleasing to the eye and the F23070 cooker is no different. The modern, stylish appearance and compact design could make the F23070 a permanent fixture on your worktop.
The KRUPS F23070 is a small appliance, measuring in at just 6.4 x 7.7 x 5.5 inches, which makes it ideal for placing on even the smallest kitchen counter-top.
The main body of the unit is split into 3 different pieces. The heating element is found in the base that is a white color. You then get the transparent egg holder in the middle that holds up the eggs over the heating element. And then there is the transparent lid.
A great design feature is the handle on the side of the appliance. When the buzzer sounds, you will easily be able to pick up the cooker using the handle and move the hot eggs to the faucet and cool them by running them under cold water, so you do not risk burning your hands.
When you un-box the unit you will also find a measuring cup and egg piercer. The egg piercer is used to pierce the egg to prevent the eggs from cracking.
The measuring cup comes with the measurements appearing as raised marks on the side of the cup. You can then pick the level of doneness you want: soft, medium or hard by filling the measuring cup with water to the relevant.
KRUPS F23070 – What is it like to Use?
The Krups F2307051 Egg Cooker has a calibrated water-level indicator that allows you to pour the exact amount of water needed.
A Signal indicates end of cooking cycle so eggs are not overcooked. Cleaning the appliance could not be easier as both the Lid and egg holder are dishwasher safe for quick clean up.

Built to be compact the cooker does not take up much counter top space and has a modern design.
If your not a fan of boiled eggs then those of you who prefer poached eggs will be glad that you have the option to poach up to 2 eggs at a time using the supplied tray.
