Aroma ARC-743-1NG 6-Cup - Cooked Rice Cooker and Food Steamer

Product Review

Take the guesswork out of making rice with this rice cooker and food steamer from Aroma. It cooks up to 6 cups of moist, fluffy rice and can simultaneously steam vegetables and meats for easy, all-in-one meals. It automatically switches to warming mode when cooking is finished, keeping food warm until ready to serve. You can even cook jambalayas, soups and stews! The break-resistant tempered glass lid allows you to monitor rice without releasing steam, so your food is cooked to perfection every time. And the nonstick inner pot makes cleanup a breeze.

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.

Does what it says it will do - cooks rice well. This is the third Aroma rice cooker I have owned. I gave two of them away to family who raved about how well it cooked. I find the cooker improves the more you use it, i.e. the first couple of batches of rice are cooked but not as well as later batches. It gets better with usage.

I'm glad I took a chance this time. We love this little rice cooker. Makes perfect rice each time just like the local restaurants. I don't know why this little handy cooker is getting such bad reviews as I've not had an issue with it with 14+ uses so far! Love it!
