But we never--not once--got an egg to peel properly. Time and again,
the bedeviled eggs fell apart or popped out with the bottom quarter of
the shell annoyingly intact.

That's been my eggsperience also. So far, I've found the best place to keep
the device is in its box on a shelf... However, I do have 3-dozen eggs,
expire-date 7/22/04, just waiting to be boiled, so maybe I'll try it again.
The troubleshooting guide is pretty keen on the freezing water bath method.
I have to say the science of the thing bothers me. The infomercial talks
about using air-pressure to separate the egg from the membrane, and they
show a picture of the air going in the LARGE end, where there happens to be
an air pocket, naturally. But the instructions say to piece the SMALL end,
etc. And turning the egg over didn't work either. :-)
