Awesome Rice/steamer cooker!!! Mar 25, 2010
By Flower Wow! I am so glad that I took a chance on this rice/steamer.. I almost passed this item up because I only saw one review and it was a bad review. Well I took a chance and this is one nice Item. I purchased ours for 19.99 at Target. There were only two left. Let me get to how this all started. First of all I came across a proctor silex rice cooker, for 19.99, I passed that cooker up and then went back to look for that cooker and it was gone. So I did some research on rice cookers. Come to find out, this one had what I was really looking for. The proctor was only a rice cooker. This Rice cooker/steam, can not only cook rice, but steam veggies and fish. It is like a one cook pot.
So, rushed home from the store, washed everything, out of the box and read the directions and started putting everything in the pot. I used jasmine rice, and seasoned the rice the way that I wanted it. When I tell you that I have never tasted rice like this, I said, well what have I been eating? I always wondered why I could never get brown rice or any rice cooked right, now I know. Not only did this rice cooker cook the rice just right, but It also steamed the veggies just the way I like them.... Wow what a deal.. Not let me also say that I only washed the steamer, top and base that goes inside of the rice cooker. You are not to was the base in water.
I am so glade that I took a chance on this item, and I am glad that I will be making healthier food for my family. Our children are so excited about the rice cooker. I see why there were only two left on the self. And I see why you should have a ricer cooker. Now the other rice cooker that I wanted to purchase was used and only cooked rice. I was also told that it was returned because the person who purchased the item did not like the it cooked. So I am glad that I passed it up. This was worth the price and we feel like we made a wise investment and that we used our money wisely.
Now last thing is that this comes with a user manual that has a few recipes included. Well I am on my way to eat more rice and veggies!

always check the plug Apr 19, 2010
By Y. Indria We use this rice cooker everyday in our home, and it always does the work as it should be. It beeps when the rice is cooked, a good sign but it is kinda loud for me.
There is something you should always do before using it, check whether the cable is securely plugged to the rice cooker because it can drop relatively easy. I already spotted that several times, so be careful!

By V. Laniawe My boyfriend received this as a gift for his birthday, and we were excited to try it out, but it ended up being a HUGE disappointment.
There are a few issues we have with this cooker, but our main one is the way it cooks!!
First off, the directions they provide on how much water to add to different types of rice are inaccurate--we can never seem to get it even close to being correct unless I guesstimate how much (extra) water should be added. And I say extra water because the rice burns if the pot is left on for more than a few minutes after the cooking has completed. (And yes, we have used other directions from the rice bags themselves with the same poor results.)
Secondly, you really have to watch the rice cooker when it is cooking because you have to stir the rice when it is half-way done, or else it won't cook properly. I have an issue with this because the rice cookers I've owned, and my family has owned, don't need that extra attention.
The one positive is that the steamer seems to operate properly--at least the one time we used it. However, it still only gets one star because it fails at its main purpose: cooking tasty rice in a simple manner. (We have owned this product for over a year, and still hate it.)

Splatery Dec 29, 2010
By Carolina It cooks the rice. However, it creates a 2' circumference of water splatter around the cooker.
I'm not sure how they missed this in the QA process, however, it is quite annoying if you have papers or anything within a two foot radius of the cooker.
Beware.
