Good rice steamer for brown rice
I always use brown rice and was leery about buying this kind of steamer. I had a vegetable and rice steamer for over 10 years that I loved. It was just an oval one with the clear plastic bowl for the veggies and had a rice bowl you put in it. It had a dial that you turned to the amount of time y9u wanted your food to cook for. It was perfect for brown rice because I could put however much water I wanted In with the rice and then set it for 60 minutes and then later another 15-20. So I was sad when it died and nervous about this one.This one did work very well. I followed the directions, but did add a little extra water. I found that for brown rice, the recommended amount of water was not enough. When I checked on it after it was done, the water had completely absorbed in and the brown rice was a little too hard. Not crunchy or really hard, just not quite right. (I do not like my rice mushy. I have eaten brown rice all my life, along with other grains.) i had to add more water and cook it for a little longer. I did find that some rice was stuck to the bottom, but not burned. I have always used twice as much water to brown rice and cooked it for around 80 minutes. I think with brown rice, it will take some experimenting to figure out what works best for each person. Next time, I’m going to add more water and cook it longer. (only way to cook it longer than 60 minutes is to start it over again, which is easy.) If I end up adding too much water, I will just cook it a little longer.I washed it by hand, and I didn’t put it in the dishwasher. It is small and light so it is easy to put in a cupboard. There are some recipes in the manual for other grains.Anyway, I like this and it did work for brown rice. You just might have to experiment with the cooking time and water amount a little bit.The only thing that bugs me is that the inside pan the rice goes in has two sets of lines and numbers. It has cups on one side and a lower case e on the other. The lines under the e do not match up with the lines under the word cups. The numbers are different too. The ones under the e are 0.2 up through 0.8. I thought maybe the e and the 0.2-0.8 was liters or something but am not sure. I read the manual and googled and couldn’t find the answer. I’m sure it is something obvious, and doesn’t effect anything at all. I’m just curious.Update 12/19/20- After using this rice cooker quite often between now and when I got it, I wish I had bought a different rice cooker. My old Sunbeam one was much better. With the Aroma cooker, the water that is in with the rice is what is steaming. The rice comes out pretty stuck together, no matter how I adjust the water amount. If I follow the directions and only use the proper amount of water, the brown rice isn’t cooked enough and is hard still. Another big disadvantage of the Aroma is that the rice sticks to the bottom and while I don’t have to scrub it off, I do have to soak it for hours and apply pressure with a dish cloth to get it clean. The Sunbeam, which I include a link for so you can see what I’m talking about, had you put water below what you are steaming. It had a bowl for the rice and you also put water in with the rice. The water that was below and not with the rice is what got hot and steamy. It cooked the rice just fine, perfectly in fact. The timer only went for 60 minutes, so I did have to add some more time, but this was no big deal. Often, I would start the rice earlier in the day at around 2 or 3 and then cook it the last 20 or so before dinner. The Sunbeam was also much easier to clean. The brown rice turned out soft, but not mushy, and was not all stuck together. It was perfect. The only thing thing the Aroma has that I like better is that it does have a delay start.(It was this one, but I am not paying this much-https://www.amazon.com/Sunbeam-Instant-4710-Vegetable-Cooker/dp/B07MMG9L96/ref=asc_df_B07MMG9L96/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=385191967814&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17843216542356355794&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9032623&hvtargid=pla-836131536875&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=78082493949&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=385191967814&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17843216542356355794&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9032623&hvtargid=pla-836131536875)

Perfect Rice Cooker Makes Perfect Rice!
Excellent rice cooker/steamer right out of the box!We have used an small Aroma rice cooker for years- never gave us any problems, they just keep working. However, the smaller cooker also tends to produce an overflow of liquid – no matter how many cups to water used- makes a mess. I was looking for an upgrade and wanted to try a self-contained steamer/cooker. Well, I hit the jackpot with this upgraded Aroma Rice Cooker! I literally took it out of its very well-packaged container, no dents- shiny, silver, has a nice appearance sitting on the kitchen counter. It’s arrival occured right at dinner time so I just followed the easy to understand instructions and in ten minutes, I had a pot full of warm, steaming rice, cooked to perfection. No mess, no water on the counter- all self contained. I was blown away in how fast it is- the smaller Aroma cooker took at least 20 minutes for 4 cups of cooked rice.This wonderful appliance comes with a bowl, steamer basket and a paddle spoon. No more messy bowl tops to wash-it took me less than a few minutes to clean it up and put it away for next time.I love my new Aroma Rice Cooker- saves time, much more efficient and the rice tasted great! I’m looking forward to using the steamer basket to cook complete meals in one pot. Can’t go wrong with this one!

Always PERFECT * 2x as fast * 10 years and still going strong
I bought this in Jan 2014. It’s May 2023. It’s almost a decade old, and it’s still going.(Honestly, I only use it for white rice.)+ Cooks sushi rice perfectly+ Cooks jasmine rice perfectly+ Done in 36 minutes (I’ve timed it) — FASTEST rice cooker+ Easy to clean+ Couldn’t be any simpler to use+ Cheap (it was $30 then, and it’s $30 now)+ Has been with me for a DECADE- The ONLY “negative” is that I used metal forks and spoons in it when I was young and foolish, so some rice can stick, especially if it’s left on keep warm for a long time. Washed rice sticks less. Oiled rice (for individual grains, like fried rice) doesn’t stick at all.[I have no chill for “fancy” brands]I have tried to ZOJIRUSHI rice cookers, on “sushi, white rice, long grain white” modes. It takes 60+ minutes everytime, and we always google, “Why is my rice overcooked?”I have never had to troubleshoot my Aroma rice cooker. It just works. I’m so annoyed by “higher quality” brands that make you experiment to try to get their product to work.[How I Use It]If I want fluffy, individual grains, to go with beans or to go into fried rice, I THOROUGHLY wash the Jasmine rice, then mix in a little oil to the pot before I turn it on.If I want sushi rice, I just wash it a normal amount (3-6x) and fill up to the line.[Washing Rice] Just in case anyone is unfamiliar, you “wash” the extra starch off of rice before you cook it. Usually you just put the rice in the cooking bowl, fill it part way with water, swirl the grains around, tip out as much of the water as you can without spilling grains – and repeat until the water is nearly clear. If you want less sticky rice (like for fried rice) wash it for longer to get all extra starch off.Then you add fresh water (I use filtered) to the “washed” rice until it hits the Fill line for however many “cups” of rice you put in.[Amount of Water] Just use the cup that comes with the rice cooker and fill to the line. I don’t know why the finger method doesn’t give you the same ratio and result, but I just trust the machine.[TLDR]+ It’s still flawless a DECADE later+ Cooks various types of rice perfectly every time+ Effortless+ Cooks twice as fast as othersI would buy it in a heartbeat for anyone else. I wouldn’t waste my time or money on anything else.

Very slow! 2 cups of rice should not take over 40 minutes to cook!Using stove and simple pot is much more efficient. Maybe this is good for slow rice cooking?

Unfortunately, the seller forgot to mention in the description the big disclaimer that the rice cocker that they are selling causes cancer (see picture). I tried to return the product to get my money back and it was really painful as the seller did not wanted to pay for the return at first. Then when I managed to get a prepaid label, they resended the parcel back again by mistake, but they did not send the money.Still no money received and they expect that I pay to return the package (that they mistakely re-sent).Will really not reccomend this product.
