Black & Decker RC426 Rice Cooker, White

 (23 customer reviews)

This is the best priced and easiest to use rice cooker. It has a serving spoon, measuring cup, and holder for glass top. Makes enough rice for individual or family. It's idiot-proof. I am uniquely qualified to make that statement.

I love to make stir-fry but cooking the rice was always a pain. I prefer using the healthier brown rice which is even harder to cook. After some debate I finally decided to try one of these and I wish I'd had made the decision a long time ago! Just measure your rice using the included measure and add water to the line. Add any desired seasonings and press "Cook". When the cooking is finished it automatically switches to "Warm" to keep your rice warm as long as desired. Perfect fluffy rice everytime without timing or watching. Well worth the modest price. The only thing I might change is perhaps a bell to let you know when it's done.

Owned two of this model in the last 18 months. Used about once per week. In both cases during mid-cook, cooker started to have a burnt electrical smell then the cooker stopped working.
