We are vegetarian.. but since doctor suggested to have boiled egg (without yolk in daily meals) looking for
Induction and egg boiler.. only myself and teenager shall be using this, so want to avoid lot of cleaning hassles.
Might make omlette or egg burji occasionally (but boiled eggs daily)

What is the reason though? Depending on the reason you could also consider egg protein powder, egg whites powder, or packaged egg whites. Will cost more than eggs but be more convenient especially if you don't want to deal with eggs.

Anyway egg boilers very simple machines and you can find plenty on amazon. They plug in directly, no induction required.

Simply use a aluminum bowl, ensure all eggs are covered with water and keep boiling for 5 minutes once boiling starts (reduced flame). No machine required.

Thanks was looking for something like this. I saw some equipments those also allowed making omelette. Some reviews said if egg bursts sometimes in machine, it's a pain to clean and produces very bad smell?

A device which can gauge time will be more helpful.

Buy something like that Kent egg boiler posted earlier. There can't be anything more simpler than those steamers. They switch off on their own and you don't have to add any more side-tasks (timers, okay google and the stuff) to an already simple task.

You may run across cracked eggs in this steamer once in a while but they are still edible as only the egg whites ooze out a bit. Eggs shells are delicate and they do crack occasionally in every other vessel when boiling them.

Because rest of the folks won't eat eggs, get a separate pan for making omelettes etc on gas stove.

Or something better, will go ahead and make a purchase.
 
Egg boilers are very simple machines. They have a heating element and an old school thermostat. That's all. So most of them will work fine.

I have one similar to this and been using it for 3 years without trouble https://www.amazon.in/dp/B07GMFY9QM

Don't waste money on the Kent one, they are the same machine with a kent sticker. There's no additional quality controls, they just double the price because they're a known brand.

It's very convenient as I can just switch it on and go brush my teeth and do my morning chores. Don't have to monitor it or wait for the water to come to boil, etc. It will switch off automatically when the water dries up.

Make sure your eggs are at room temperature when you put them in. Most of the time they won't break (also depends on the quality of the egg though). If nothing breaks, then you can clean it once a week and that will be good enough.
