Aroma Housewares 6-Cup (Cooked yield ) / 1.2Qt. Select Stainless Pot-Style Rice Cooker, & Food Steamer, One-Touch Operation, White

I'm finally upgrading my various cookers to cook with stainless steel inner pots instead of non-stick pots. Today I used this rice cooker for the very first time. When first opening the package, I immediately noticed a couple of things. First, the looks like a quality cooker. Second, the cooker is smaller than I'm used to. It is only a 1.2 quart cooker whereas I'm used to 3 quart. But actually, the small size is perfect for one person. For dinner, I made 1 cup (before cooked) of brown rice. I also used the included stainless steel steam basket to steam some sardines, smoked oysters and a tomato. For the rice, I added 1 cup rice, 1 1/2 cup water and about a tablespoon of olive oil to prevent the rice from sticking to each other. Overall, I am impressed with the results. I didn't time how long it took to cook the rice but I say about 30-40 minutes. Upon uncovering, the rice looked great. They didn't stick to each other. However, the very bottom did have rice that was overcooked and stuck to the inner pot bottom. The steamed food was fine in temperature and taste. As for cleaning, I think having stainless steel help. I do have to soak the rice that sticks to the pot overnight. By morning, I expect them to easily come off. The stain steel basket was easy to clean with just liquid soap and water even though it got a little oily with the sardines and smoked oysters. As I mentioned, the inner pot is small. With just 1 cup of brown rice, the rice almost filled the pot. I figure if I was cooking white rice, that might even rise more and fill the pot. I haven't tried with white rice. Here is what I like and dislike of this rice cooker: Likes: ------- - made of good material and seems durable - stainless steel safer and no worry about non-stick coating anymore - small size perfect for 1 person Dislikes: ---------- - rice did stick to bottom of pot even after I added some olive oil to rice (but should clean off easily after soaked) I give the Aroma Housewares 1.2 QT stainless steel rice cooker 5 stars.

We wanted a bit smaller rice cooker, because our 8 cup cook up too much counter space and the bowl inside had the non-stick coating was scratching off with use. Yuk! I wanted a healthier option for my family of 4 adults that makes rice very often. I ordered this rice cooker and could not be more impressed! This 6 cup makes more than enough rice, it's cooks the rice perfectly and the 1 lever operation is very simple. Not having a non-stick coated bowl is wonderful and easier to clean, too. This medium sized cooker can cook many things and steam veggies, fish, chicken, etc.. while the rice is being made! It's cool! I love the size and fits nicely on our counter top, too. It's a little bit more for the stainless rice bowl and steamer, but I feel it was well worth the few dollars more. We love this price cooker and give it 5 Stars!

This rice cooker works great and is very easy to use. It cooks rice evenly every time and keeps it warm without burning. The size is perfect for families or meal prep, and the design is simple but effective. I like that it’s quick to clean and doesn’t take up too much space on the counter. It’s a reliable appliance for everyday cooking and a great value for the price.

I appreciate that this rice cooker uses a solid stainless steel inner pot instead of the typical nonstick. It's great knowing that the pot will last much longer, and I don't have to worry about any potential health concerns associated with nonstick coatings. The overall build quality feels quite good. The outer shell is made of metal, so it feels quite durable, and the handles are made of plastic to prevent any accidental burns while the rice cooker is hot. The 14-cup capacity works great for our family of 8. Since I cook 4 cups of rice multiple times a week, I like being able to just throw all the ingredients in the pot and walk away, allowing me to focus on other parts of the meal. The rice came out great: no hard spots, no mushy spots, just well-textured rice. The measurement lines inside the pot are a lot easier to read on the stainless-steel surface compared to the nonstick pots in other rice cookers I’ve used. Additionally, I really like the shape of the included rice scoop. It's shovel-shaped, which makes it easier to get all the way to the bottom of the pot when serving. Finally, I saw some reviews that mentioned the steamer basket feeling flimsy, but I don’t think it will be a problem. It feels very sturdy resting on the pot, and I’m excited to see what I can steam at the same time as the rice is cooking.

as expected, rice sticks like crazy, but that’s the price we pay to avoid nonstick polymers leeching into our food. it’s stainless, so it’s easy to clean and will likely last forever, but there is a hump in the middle to contact the heating element, and the manual says to be careful with vigorous cleaning as you may flatten it out and it won’t cook after that. so be careful. my main complaint is the size. most rice cookers come in a variety of sizes, but this one is one size. i cook for myself mainly, and even the minimum rice is way too much for one serving. not a big deal because it cooks fine with less rice and water, you just need to guess around to find the right amount to use. i would’ve loved to get a half size, but it is what it is. this one’s fine.

I have had an aroma rice cooker of this size for a few years now. It's actually the perfect size for a person like me - I eat rice most days, often for just myself or for 2-3 people. My cheapo one started giving inconsistent quality and I was concerned that the heating element was going out or one of the wires was getting old. I could have just bought another cheapo, but this rice cooker looked so much nicer. No non-stick coating to flake off, shiny and sleek looking. Even though it cost more than twice as much, I sprung for the stainless steel model. **That was a MISTAKE!** The rice always BURNS and sticks to the bottom of the pot!!! I have been using this style of automatic rice cooker since I was a little girl and I have NEVER seen rice burn like this. I tried all the tricks - greasing the bottom with oil or butter, more water, taking the rice pot out the second it clicked from "cook" to "warm" - it didn't matter. Every time we went to serve the rice, we would lose a good half inch, and scrubbing it is a total nightmare. I assumed that the unit was running too hot. But I inserted my old cheapo nonstick rice pot and magically, the next time I made rice, there was NO STICKING, NO BURNING! It came out perfectly fluffy and the pot was just as easy to clean as always. I can even let the pot run on keep warm for a bit before I return to the kitchen and serve it up. The main reason I want a rice pot are for convenience and to allow my children to make rice without my help. If I have to babysit the pot and it STILL burns, I would do better to just use a regular pot on the stove. Then at least it won't make a mess or become a fire hazard. Do yourself a favor and keep looking. If others have had better luck, then Aroma is producing an inferior product with inconsistent quality. My experience makes me want to go with a different brand next time. I'm so frustrated at the money I wasted.

Update, still love the rice cooker. It quit working a few months in. We replaced the thermal overload (safety function) and it's been working great again. It was a loose connection from assembly which caused heat and to short out. When you first get yours if your handy access the interior to ensure the screws that secure the thermal overload to prevent this. We bought the replacement thermal overload on Amazon, super cheap and worth getting this rice cooker back in action. We love this rice cooker! So easy to measure and markers for water level. Veggie steamer makes them just perfect. Rice and steamer are stainless, easy to clean, makes rice so fluffy and quick too. Wanted stainless rice and veggie steamer basket. This one was everything we wanted in a rice cooker!

This little rice cooker is so amazing that I bought another one. We got rid of non stick in our homes a long time ago and Aroma was one of the few companies with a steel base. Not only does it cook perfect rice every single time, it is easy to clean and is well made to last. Thank you for an awesome product!

Stainless steel. No forever chemicals contaminating our rice. Non stick is great but not at the expense of your health. It cleans easy, nice and compact, simple rice cooker. Makes plenty enough rice for the 3 of us. I would buy again👍🏻

Not suitable in the EU. you would need a step down converter to operate. This should be way clearer in the description.

En enero cumplo el año de estarla usando dos veces por semana y todo muy bien. Altamente recomendada. Es un muy buen artículo, el arroz queda perfecto, además de la gran capacidad de la vaporera para cocer buena cantidad y diversas verduras. Cabe mencionar también que al ser de acero inoxidable, no se corren los peligros vs las ollas que estás recubiertas de teflón, ya que no el tiempo estás se desgastan y se ha comprobado científicamente que se ingieren pequeñas cantidades de este material antiadherente y son cancerígenos y tumorales.

Lo he usado 3 veces y ya no funciona. No me dejan devolverlo y lo compre hace solo 3 meses

Pas de prise adaptée à la France pourquoi n’est ce pas spécifié sur la description du produit ! Indigne d’Amazon !
