Our review
Three egg-cutting modes in one tool: wedges for salad toppers, flat slices for sandwiches, and a dicing grid that turns a hard-boiled egg into uniform bite-sized pieces in a single press. That dicing mode is why people pick this over a basic wire slicer — it makes egg salad in seconds instead of chopping by hand. The stainless-steel wires also cut soft foods like strawberries, mushrooms, grapes and cherry tomatoes, the plastic body feels sturdier than the price suggests, and a non-slip base keeps it steady. Place the egg, close the lid, done — and it's dishwasher safe.
The unavoidable trade-off is cleaning the dicing grid: the same grid that cuts the egg into tiny pieces also traps them in its grooves, so it needs a toothpick or a blast from the sink sprayer — not a quick rinse (the wedge and slice modes clean easily). The fine wires are the other question mark; they're adequate for soft foods but a few long-term users report them loosening or breaking with heavy use. At this price that's a known trade-off, not a defect. If you make egg salad regularly, it pays for itself in time saved within a week.

FAQ
What is the dicing mode for?
It cuts a hard-boiled egg into uniform small cubes — perfect for egg salad or tuna salad. Place the egg, press down, and the grid does all the work in one motion.
Is it hard to clean?
The wedge and slice modes rinse clean easily. The dicing grid is the challenge — tiny egg pieces get trapped in the grooves. Use a high-pressure kitchen sprayer or a toothpick to clear them.
Will the wires break?
They are stainless steel and handle eggs and soft foods well. Some long-term reviewers report wires loosening after months of heavy use. Avoid pressing down on hard foods.
Can I use it for fruit?
Yes — it works well on strawberries, grapes, mushrooms, kiwi, and cherry tomatoes. Anything soft enough that stainless-steel wires can pass through.
