"  When it comes to kitchen problems that don&amp;#039;t need solving, cracking eggs is pretty high on my list. It seems like other cooks agree. In a brief survey we found only about 20% of people say they find cracking eggs a problem. But for those that do, the EZ-Cracker promises a way to easily crack eggs, separate whites, and even strip shells from hard-boiled eggs, no mess, no fuss. The reality? We cracked 4-dozen eggs (12 each in medium, large, extra large, and jumbo) with the egg white separator attachment in place to see whether the EZ-Cracker made good on it&amp;#039;s promise to crack shells and separate whites. We found it worked about 80% of the time, but periodically we got a piece of shell, or some yolk would slip through. It definitely works best with large or extra large eggs and struggles with medium and jumbo ones.  We also found it messy to use. You need to remove the cracked shell from the device after each egg is broken, plus you need to clean the cracker itself by hand as it&amp;#039;s not dishwasher safe. And don&amp;#039;t even think of using it for stripping the shells from hard-boiled eggs; most of the time we found it tore the eggs in half as it cracked the shell. The bottom line? Save your money. Even if you have a hard time cracking eggs, this device may not make it any easier. Plus you&amp;#039;ll be fishing out splintered pieces of shell regularly.
