great small cooker
By whatohwhat
Looks nice. Glad i got it. I have a 7/14 cup Aroma cooker for more than a year that im very pleased with but needed something smaller.

Works great.

Only caveats ive learned is that

a) you cant cook 3 cups of "real" basmati type rice without it reaching lid. I turned the steamer upside down and put lid on that as temporary measure. Rice came out just fine, but you cant easily stir it after it goes to warm mode to fluff it up while it cools down/cooks more because its reached the top of pot.

b) you must absolutely rinse out the rice a couple times so the water is near clear so you dont get all that froth. (guess all the complaining about spilling is about that. i cheated once and didnt rinse... ofcourse it says this in manual.

Cooks rice great, easy to clean, looks very nice and its tiny.

Also, Aroma sells replacement parts unlike other manufactures. (including the non-stick inner pot) ( $6 each, i alread y ordered two to put in storage for when i drop/scratch them)

Nice little rice cooker
By msmoon
This is a nice, basic rice cooker. I've wanted to get a rice cooker for some time but debated what size and model to get. The size is perfect for one or two people, and the steamer addition allows you to prep veggies and other foods to complement your meal. I've been able to cook other grains and beans like quinoa and lentils, respectively, with great results. One word of advice: make sure to use the cooker in an open area to quickly clean up water splatters and to avoid steam from potentially damaging kitchen cabinets.

I dont have any of the issues others are mentioning?
By G. Poli
This is a great rice cooker? i have no messy spills like so many people are claiming to have? it looks very well constructed? i recoment it if you live in a small house hold. i just cook for my self but its large enough to cook rice for me and my guest without having to make a second batch? looks sylish, performs as advertised, good price.. what else is important?

I read someones complaint that steam came out of the top of this cooker and they demanded that no one else buy it?? that seems so odd to me (for lack of a better term) this IS a rice cooker NOT a crock pot? if the steam does NOT escape then the excess water would never leave the pot after your rice is cooked then you would have rice flavored goop? So if you never had a rice cooker before and this is your first one then know this, during the last few minutes of cooking the VERY TINY hole in the top of the glass will vent the steam from excess water after your rice is full cooked.
