4 out of 5 stars Love it   January 6, 2009
Easy to use, easy to clean, perfect for work, where you can make a quick meal with almost no prep time, and save a LOT of money (guess where this one is going...)
Definitely a recommended buy.
We have one in my current common room (3-cup model), but I'm switching buildings, so I decided to buy one for the new common room, and get the bigger model so i could steam some vegetables and eggs in there.



5 out of 5 stars Best Simple Rice Maker   January 2, 2009

Through college and the years following I have used many different rice cookers and this one is by far the best.

Using a 1 to 1 ratio with regular white rices and 1 to 2 with brown rice has always yielded perfect rice every time. The rice has never burned (assuming you stick to the ratios) and never sticks to the container.

An important note: Make sure you ONLY USE PLASTIC OR WOODEN UTENSILS! While I personally haven't experienced this, metal utensils will scratch the non-stick lining on the pot.

That said, I have been using the same rice cooker for 4 years now and it still works like the day I bought it.



1 out of 5 stars fails out of the box   December 28, 2008

I filled it up with the proper amounts of water and rice as directed. I plugged it in and depressed the lever so the "cooking" light came on. Within seconds, that lever popped up and then the "keep warm" light came on instead and the lever did not return. If I depress the lever again so the "cooking" light comes back on, within seconds that lever pops back up again and the "keep warm" light comes on. I thought maybe this is some sort of safety feature like you have with some electric heaters where it shuts off if it gets too hot but when it cools down acceptably, they cycle back on again. Of course, I thought it odd that sufficient heat would build up to shut it off so fast. Anyway, no matter how long (over half an hour) I leave it plugged in, once that lever pops up, neither the lever ever goes back down nor does the "cooking" light ever come back on again. Nor does the rice cook. Water stays lukewarm.

In general, this product works well except the heating system is too powerful that the steam/water from the rice always spill over my countertop.

What bothered me the MOST was the product description did not say it was made in Thailand. I assumed I was getting a good deal for a Japanese rice cooker. DISAPPOINTED!



5 out of 5 stars excellent cooker   December 16, 2008
I am very happy with my rice cooker.
It works well, cooks rice, oatmeal and steams vegetables.
This is just what I was looking for.
