I'll keep this review short and sweet...
This is an economical rice cooker and it gets the job done. If you need it for a dorm, apartment, or are trying to be frugal with your money then go for it.
There are better rice cookers out there, but you'll have to shell out more for them.
Good luck shopping :)

I bought this due to its larger steamer. Though the quality appears poor, I figured it is just a rice cooker. Bad idea. It broker after 3 weeks and when it worked, it was temperamental.

Most of these steamers are aluminum of teflon. Neither of these are good for your health, esp your
brain. The vapors of both aluminum and teflon get into your food. Try to find one without either ofd these materials, if thats possible - Ed

Take the guesswork out of making restaurant-quality rice at home with this easy-to-use rice cooker. The handy appliance offers a generous 6-cup rice capacity--great when cooking for the whole family or a group of friends. Simply add dry rice, measure in the water, and turn the unit on with a press of the lever. Once the rice has cooked, the appliance automatically switches over to "keep warm" mode, which maintains an ideal serving temperature for up to 12 hours without over-cooking. The multi-function cooker can also be used to prepare dishes such as breakfast porridge, chicken soup, beef stew, steamed vegetables, and more. In addition, the unit's air-tight lid locks in moisture and flavor, while its removable nonstick inner pot with Teflon coating ensures effortless food release and quick cleanup. Other highlights include "cook" and "keep warm" indicator lights, a safety lock button, a condensation collection cup, and a cool-touch exterior. A steam tray comes included. Attractively housed in stainless steel, the 500-watt rice cooker measures 10-3/5 by 10-3/5 by 10-3/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

3.3c Rice Cooker Steamer Review

3.3c Rice Cooker Steamer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product is simply titiled "3.3c Rice Cooker Steamer" and makes no mention of the model number. However, the product page does show the picture of the Panasonic SR-W06PC. It's an older, discontinued product. If you want a newer model, see Panasonic SRG06FG 3.3-Cup Automatic Rice Cooker.
If the product being sold here is the Panasonic SR-W06PC, there are a couple of inaccuracies in the product description. Per the instruction manual, the dimensions are actually 7.9'' x 9.5'' x 7.9'' and the weight is 2.6 lbs. (The PDF manual can be downloaded from Panasonic's site. It contains the specs, operating instructions, and some yummy recipes.)
I've had this rice cooker for a number of years and it has consistently made very good steamed rice. It has no keep warm function after the rice is cooked (not necessarily a bad thing). It comes with a aluminum pot, which doesn't have a "non-stick" surface. However, I've never had a stuck-on problem. The trick to avoiding rice sticking to the pot is to simply leave the rice in the rice cooker for at least 10 minutes after the rice is cooked (when the cook button pops up).
---
There you have it. Just thought I'd put the information out there just so on one gets burned by a bait and switch. I would contact the seller to ascertain the exact rice cooker model they are selling on this page.

If you want an easy way to prepare rice, this is it. The locking mechanism is a little tricky, but it stays locked once you have it set. It's easy to handle and you don't need to find an electric socket to use it as you do with the electric rice makers. Rice never burns and comes out perfectly.

Imusa Rice Cooker Nonstick 8 Cup Review

Imusa Rice Cooker Nonstick 8 Cup
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bought this on a whim at bed bath and beyond last week for 20 bucks. I put for cups of Basmati rice in it, filled it up to the "4" mark on the inner bowl, put the lid on and flipped the switch. 25 minutes later - perfectly cooked rice. Not to starchy and sticky(how it usually gets when i cook it on the stove top). After it was done cooking, the switch clicked to warm mode and just kept the rice warm. pretty much perfect operation.
I am a little suprised the other reviewer complained about the instructions - c'mon, it's a rice maker!! It is like complaining that you bought a new car and it didn't come with instructions on how to fill up the as tank!

Oster 14-Cup Rice Cooker - Black Review

Oster 14-Cup Rice Cooker - Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
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!

Microwave Rice Cooker Review

Microwave Rice Cooker

I've had my cooker for 11 years (got it in college). Great for making a quick (12-15 min) single or double serving of rice. The plastic design (as well as the lid disassembly) makes for easy cleanup.
Larger servings can be difficult due to boil-over issues, so I wouldn't recommend making more than about 3/4 cup of rice at one go. Also, the bits that snap over the lid to hold it down can come off and get lost. I still have mine after 11 years, but my college roommate lost one of his way back then. (It was after he moved out with his cooker in the summer that I had to pick up my own - I was hooked at that point.)

Aroma ARC-733-1NGR 6-Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Review

Aroma ARC-733-1NGR 6-Cup Rice Cooker and Food Steamer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We have owned this for over 3 months now. It is our first rice cooker and I have only praise for it. But make sure that this fits your needs, otherwise you might be disappointed.
1. We use it pretty much only when we are traveling.
2. For two people, the quantity is just right. (If there are more members, a bigger volume cooker might be a better option.)
3. We read the earlier reviews and we switch off the cooker once the switch turns to warm after the rice is done.
4. We have made noodles and attempted a few Indian dishes (upma) which turned out quite fine.
5. If you wash the rice in the pot, it is a good idea to wipe the outside of the pot with a dry cloth before placing it in the cooker. That way the water won't ruin anything inside.
Just a couple of drawback:
** The amount of water needed varies slightly with each brand of rice. So I pretty much ignored their instructions and got it right after varying the water amount for 2-3 experiments.
** The etched measurement levels and water level markings in the dark background are pretty much impossible to read.
Overall, for the price, it is a great product. I think we recovered our money in the first 2 weeks itself.

This thing works great, and it steams veggies at the same time!!!! Just read the instructions thoroughly. If you are cooking brown or wild rice the water measurements are different. Rice comes out fluffy and moist every time. And, it stays moist on the warm setting too. I had it in there staying warm for over an hour and you wouldn't have known it, seriously. Buy this!
