Maxi-Matic Elite Cuisine Rice Cooker with Glass Lid

On the positive side, the warming feature allows you to increase the cooking time for brown rice, by turning the cooker down to warm once the water boils and then finishing the rice on the cook setting. This takes a little experience. On the minus side, the non-stick coating of the pan seems a little thin.

I've never had great luck with Elite products, but this was cheap and small and I just needed something basic. After using it a half dozen times, it started switching off mid-way through, so I'd cruise back into the kitchen a half hour later ready to prep dinner and find it still full of water. After another five or six uses, it won't switch from warm to cook at all anymore. I should have bought a slightly better Aroma rice cooker instead of contributing this one to our landfill so quickly.

I currently own and have used this rice cooker for over three years with excellent results each time. I know it makes up to 3 cups of rice but I typically only make 1 with no problem (1 cup triple rinsed basmati rice + 2 cups water). Not much else to share besides it works as advertised, is well-made and is, in my opinion, a good value.
