The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Overview
At $12.99, the Elite Gourmet EGC-007 is one of the cheapest egg cookers in this roundup, yet it holds a 4.6 star rating from 19,700 reviewers. That review volume is among the highest for any model here, and the score holds steady across that large sample.
The stainless steel body is notable for this price tier, where plastic bodies are the norm. At 0.55 lb it is the lightest model in the lineup, making it easy to stash and move.
This model earns its reputation purely on the basis of price, material quality relative to cost, and an overwhelming number of satisfied buyers. The spec sheet is thin beyond material and weight, but the review data compensates for that gap.
Performance notes
Confirmed specs are stainless steel material, white color, and 0.55 lb weight. No wattage, capacity, or cooking program data is available. The performance picture comes primarily from the 4.6 average across 19,700 ratings, which is a strong and statistically reliable signal of consistent results.
What buyers say
Buyer sentiment is about as positive as it gets for a sub-$15 kitchen appliance. Close to 20,000 ratings at 4.6 stars indicates that the overwhelming majority of buyers are happy with what they received. Negative reviews are a small fraction of the total.

Why does the Elite Gourmet EGC-007 have nearly 20,000 reviews?
High review counts at this price level usually reflect a combination of strong sales volume and buyer willingness to leave feedback on an appliance that either met or exceeded expectations. The EGC-007 has been on the market long enough to accumulate this level of feedback.
Is the stainless steel on the EGC-007 the same as on higher-priced models?
The listing confirms stainless steel material, but at $12.99 this typically refers to a stainless steel exterior panel or lid rather than an all-steel body. That said, it is a meaningful upgrade over the all-plastic construction found in most direct competitors at this price.
Does 0.55 lb mean it is less durable than heavier egg cookers?
Not necessarily. Lighter weight in egg cookers often comes from compact size and a smaller footprint rather than from inferior materials. At 0.55 lb the EGC-007 is extremely portable and easy to store, and the 4.6 star rating does not suggest durability issues with buyers.
