NutriChef Portable Electric Rice Cooker, 1.6L Mini Cooker with Non-Stick Ceramic Pot, Digital Control Panel, 6 Cooking Modes for Rice, Soup, Stew, Porridge & More, Green

I've used it a few times at work. It doesnt boil, boil as such. Maximum heat is only up to 90⁰ and the heating comes on intermittently. It will cook ramen noodles but a but slower than a hob. Great if you're hankering for a hot meal. Sauce or flavouring, veg, meat and noodles. Job done. I've not cooked anything without water like stir frying. I'm loathe to stain the inside with frying in oil. Washing out stains would be quite a feat as I'd be very worried to get water into the plug port or onto the touch panel, between the casing and inner lining. As it is, I rinse it very carefully but soups are much easier to clean out than cooked on stains.

I didn't expect this to be anywhere near as good as it is, but it is absolutely brilliant for single people and smaller families, so far I have used it as a rice cooker which was the main reason to buy it, I have also made soup in it, used it to heat up a casserole and keep it warm, and even used it to make a chunky winter casserole from scratch. So much more economical than turning on the big oven and for rice. It gives perfect results every time My tip would be to always make twice as much rice as you need because it takes just the same amount of electricity pretty much but then refrigerate the second half for making tasty fried rice the next day.

Took a bit of getting used to, in order to get the consistency right, but we have mastered it now, also good for chunky soups

Amazing little cooker! It's the perfect size to make portions for two people, and doesn't take up much counter space. I've found I use it more for its noodle cooking function than rice; it's super easy to set it up and let it go, and have noodles cooking without using a stove burner. It only takes about 15 minutes to cook smaller noodles. It's also very easy to clean, and because the lid comes off, you can scrub away the weird film that builds on the lid when it cooks rice. Highly recommended.

Very good, helping me allot

Unit was easy to use, more than just a rice cooker. Given to my son as a student to make meal times easy and convenient. Great size for this task.

Really disappointed with this rice cooker. I used it once for porridge and it switched off very quickly, which I assumed meant it was done. Later the same day I tried to make a simple soup (just carrots and onions etc), and within five minutes it cut out again. The food was only slightly warm and nowhere near cooked. After that, it wouldn’t turn back on at all – no lights, nothing, even after unplugging. I’d had it less than 24 hours, so it has to be returned. I had high hopes, but wouldn’t buy this again. Amazon resolved the issue quickly.

Fantastic item does what it says and plenty more. Heats well. Adjust your cooking times as you would on the hob...example..cooker calla for 40 mins but really only 20 to 25 mins

This is very useful and easy to use. It would be perfect if the power cord plug could be designed into the handle. It will be 120% perfect.

So handy! The outside & bottom barely get warm & feel good to wrap hands around on cold days w/ no burning of hands or surfaces @ all. All 3 colors look great. I kept the green for myself. I've fried HB in it, added some peas, gr. beans, & pumpkin in after draining the fat off & made a meal for my dog. It does much more than rice & soups. It's very fast. If non-scratch utensils are used, it can serve both for cooking & also eating out of. Nothing sticks to it as long Iong as non-scratch cleaning pads & utensils are the only things used in it. A set of bamboo eating utensils along w/ silicone cooking utensils work perfectly to protect the ceramic. It would work for workplace lunches, college dorm use, RV's & tiny kitchens, or single people just not needing to drag out a lot of cooking stuff. I thought it was pricey & almost decided against getting it. I really like it tho! It heats so fast that I pretty much ignore the settings & just watch it. Takes about 30 seconds to heat a can of soup. Less for hot chocolate. It'll cook spaghetti, mac & cheese, & all sorts of soups/stews/noodles/& things. I haven't tried baking a muffin or brownie in it yet, but I think I could w/ the keep warm feature if the hot functions are too hot. I'll have to try both ways & see, but I bet it'll work. It's big enough to use some of the the microwave mug meal recipes (doubled) in it. This is a handy little appliance that has really impressed me w/ what all I can use it for & how cute, simple, & easily adaptable it has been for me. I'm having fun thinking of new things to try in it. Baked apples & cinnamon maybe, or who knows what. UPDATE: I got a recipe book for the Dash Mini Rice Cooker & I already had a recipe book for 1.5qt slow cookers. Both if then work perfectly for this cute little mug style rice cooker to expand meals to just about anything you could imagine or want to cook or bake in perfectly sized meals for a single person wanting only small meals, watching portion sizes, or just don't want to drag out a lot of stuff in the kitchen & keep it simple. Love this adorable little mug cooker. Cooks & bakes a lo5 of diffrrent things if you're willing to try it. I use my mug meal recipes in this too instead of a microwave. I don't have a microwave, but do have a mug meals recipe book for the small proportioned meals & treats & to keep things simple & quick w/o a lot of fuss. So go for it & discover as I did that you aren't limited to rice & soups w/ this little mug rice cooker. It'll surprise you!

really cute pot where i cook rice but also "types" of soup and does its job. The only downside for me is the fact that is risky to clean/wash since you cannot take out the white part and ofc, the cable plug is on the body so you can't really wash it properly or you have to be very careful, but the water might get inside and break the whole thing. Besides that, love the desing too!

Rice cooker trop mignon et super compact, parfait pour une personne ! Je cherchais depuis longtemps un petit modèle et celui-ci est juste parfait — on voit bien la profondeur du bol sur les photos. Il est très facile à nettoyer, ne prend presque pas de place, et garde la soupe bien chaude pendant très longtemps. Je suis vraiment ravie de mon achat, je recommande à 100 % !

Cut and very praticable I cooked brown rice and it worked perfectly. It's quiet. I haven't tried the other functions yet, but I'm very happy with it and I bought a second one as a gift.
