So good, it has made rice our go-to side dish
on February 21, 2025
Posted by: CU123
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this rice cooker! Yes, yes, I know it cooks other grains too, but rice is mostly what we cook in it. Sometimes it can be tricky to get rice to come out perfect on the stovetop, not too dry and not too moist—and then what happens when you want different textures or there is a delay in the rest of the food and it has to sit for a while? This grain cooker solves both of these problems and its stay warm feature can keep it the perfect temp and texture for even hours. The start time feature is also very helpful by setting things up to be cooked, and can make meal prep a bit less stressful. The user interface is also good, making it easy to use. The only downside to this cooker is that, although it gives you an estimated total cook time, the time remaining isn’t displayed until it is almost done, so I always pay attention to the time I start it if I care to estimate when it will be done. But I would rather have perfect rice than knowing down to the minute when it will be done. All in all, a worthy investment.

Mixed Results
on December 23, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mixed feelings about this device. Pro: It's very convenient for some uses, and a lot of thought has gone into creating it. Con: It doesn't handle grains very well, leaving a large mess even when cooking a minimal amount. Documentation is lacking.
Convenience: I bought this because I did not want to be wedded to the stove when making rice, and the other features sounded appealing. I have a dog whose health is improved when I add rice (and pumpkin) to his diet. This means cooking rice every other day. I could have purchased a rice cooker, but the grain cooking aspect was attractive. This grain cooker is very helpful in that respect; I can set it and walk away while it cooks from start to finish. It's cooked both short grain and basmati with precision.
Inconvenience: Unfortunately, the cooker boils over frequently when I cook oats -- cooked grain "mush" flows out the vents and all over the inside when cooking steel-cut oats, even less than one cup's worth -- the attached image shows a portion of the mess after I removed the cover plate to clean it. I'd like to open the "steam collector" when it fills with food, but I find that impossible, with no guide as to how to do it. Because I have the cooker, I've steamed broccoli for dinner, and it did that well. (Basically, it steams and you decide how long.) I have not tried cooking beans. I am concerned that this will boil over as well, but I should test it. I like the convenience, but I can only cook small amounts -- the minimum the device allows -- without a huge mess.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've really been enjoying this appliance. I love that it automates so much of the process and I don't have to think as much about the rice cooking process. I haven't used it for anything other than rice yet but I'm excited to keep trying new things.

Perfect rice, everytime!
on February 6, 2025
Posted by: lorir134_1706
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the neatest kitchen appliances I’ve ever owned. It weighs the rice or grains and adds the correct amount of water needed! The basket lifts out for easy cleaning. The side of the cooker doesn’t get very hot which is good for safety reasons. It is a little bulky size wise but that is the only downfall! If you eat a lot of rice this is for you!

I Love This Appliance!
on March 8, 2025
Posted by: saras1339_1122
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m absolutely in love with this appliance! It’s incredibly easy to use and delivers perfect results every time. I can simply set it and walk away—no fuss, no stress. It takes care of everything and even alerts me when it’s done. The touchscreen is a total standout—sleek, intuitive, and a joy to use. I’m already excited to experiment with more recipes. Honestly, I can’t recommend it enough!
