Works great. I add 1/2 cup uncooked lentils to 2 or 3 cups uncooked rice and add the usual amount of water for rice. Cooks up perfectly. Feel confident in the stainless steel (non toxic) cooking bowl. Washes up easily. Read more

We used to have a fancy Zojirushi rice maker but the coating started coming off and to replace the bowl costs almost as much as a new one, $185. This rice maker has the stainless steel bowl which is also very easy to clean (just soak in water for 10 mins) and safer than the non stick bowls (lots of cancer causing chemicals). It does not have all the fancy features but the rice tastes just as good in my opinion. If you want fluffier rice just add a bit more water and unplug it once it clicks done. Definitely recommend Read more

Update 7/10/25 ***3 year update Still highly recommend this! We use it practical everyday and it is going strong, with zero issues! I feel like it’s hard to find things that last, so if you are looking for a staple in your kitchen then look no further. :) hopefully I will be back to give a 5 year update. Update 10/26/23 ***One and a half year update and I still give this five stars! I have taken this across the country on trips and it has held up great for daily use. Still easy to clean, easy to store and nothing wrong with it! The only thing like I’d already said is I wish they’d make a bigger one.*** I had been comparing rice cookers for months and I finally decided to settle on this one. I am very happy with my purchase! Pros: 1. No nonstick, so no worrying about bad things leeching into your food. 2. Cleans easily. 3. Not too big, not too small. Perfect for storage! 4. I have cooked many variations of rice and all of them have turned out perfectly. (jasmine rice, basmati rice, sticky rice, sushi rice, mexican rice, brown rice, short grain rice & wild rice) 5. We use this everyday and have yet to come across any issues. (Tip: When my rice is done cooking I unplug it right away. So it prevents burning, because it is a metal pot it will cause burning, compared to other rice cookers that are not. So do not leave it on warm… it’ll stay warm for a good amount of time if you don’t open the lid) Cons: 1. I wish they made a bigger one of this rice cooker. We always cook four cups of rice for our family of five. When we have friends over I wish we could make more, so I don’t have to cook rice twice. But, that complaint is really not a big deal. 2. I wish there was an off button. Again, not a big deal. I am verrrrry happy with this purchase and will come back in a year to let everyone know how it’s holding up. ☺️ so far so good! Read more

I was paying for a 10-cup pot, but I received a 5-cup one. I really needed the larger one, so I'll have to return it. Otherwise, it seems to be of good quality. Read more

My 20 year old fancy fuzzy-logic rice cooker, which still worked perfectly, had a bowl which was non-stick, and the material had been flaking off despite my never using metal utensils on it. I looked everywhere for a replacement bowl which was NOT non-stick, including the unhelpful manufacturer, who kept telling me there were no PFAS in it, something I found hard to believe given its age. Lot of others were looking for non-coated stainless steel bowls too (to judge by Reddit’s “rice cooker” sub), with no success. All the bowls are apparently slightly different in size, so not really interchangeable. Measuring might not help as the lip may be the wrong thickness, etc— infuriating! And to top it off, it had always been too big for my 2 person household, so I wanted something smaller. I cleaned my $200 machine thoroughly and took it to the thrift store. After looking at a LOT of small, simple rice cookers, and finding only a few with stainless steel bowls, I bought this one. It’s pretty small, but makes plenty for 2 people, including more for the next day. It’s fast. It does its job perfectly. And if you’ve left it to warm a little too long and get any sticking, an over night soak deals with it;of do as I do and include a glut of olive oil or a bit of butter as it cooks, and you’ll have just about no sticking at all! I’ve used it for brown rice, mostly, but also white rice, hulled barley and quinoa. All great. I would buy this again in an instant, and will recommend it to everyone. It’s a very basic, SIMPLE rice cooker, and so much better for everyday use than the monster with its computer brain which looked like it had just landed from another galaxy, took up a lot of space, and was shedding non-stick coating into my food. Sometimes less IS more! Read more

This rice cooker features a non-stick inner pot, which makes cleaning easy and ensures that the rice does not stick. Its transparent lid allows you to monitor the cooking process without opening it, keeping heat and moisture inside the pot. Read more

I got this rice maker a couple of months ago and it’s been great. It’s the perfect size for our family of five, and I love that the inner pot is stainless steel. The rice comes out perfect every time and cooks pretty quickly. I usually just add a little extra water beyond the line marked in the pot. Read more

I wanted a rice cooker to replace my perfectly good 14 cup Aroma cooker because it has a nonstick lining that is very pockmarked from normal operation, and you know that toxic metal didn't vanish into thin air. I have to admit I was greatly dismayed that the box it came in was quite a bit smaller than my existing rice cooker. I know people return this because the size is off, but I was expecting "medium" and not "small." Still, my husband likes the looks of it, and reminded me it is just the two of us so I kept it. It does a really good job for a single switch rice cooker. It typically use my rice cooker for more than just rice. I make soups in them as well, but I can tell already it will do a good job with that. Nothing to complain about really for the price I paid for it. Read more
