Amazing rice, always. It takes more time, compared to cooking rice in a pot, but the quality is always perfect, without any effort. It is a bigger boost in simplifying cooking, as I expected. One push of a button, and while it cooks I can focus on making curry or whatever. The keep warm function, and the ladles provided are very useful. The steaming plate works well, but got discolored from pumpkin.

I used to have a much cheaper Russel Hobbs rice cooker but it died after a year or so. By this point I already struggled with rice cooked on a hob so I knew I needed another rice cooker – but the price of this seemed so high I doubted if it was worth it. In the end I gave in and I must say that this is a completely different league than the old one (which was still better than a hob, but there was always some rice stuck to the bottom, and never quite as fluffy). When we first got this cooker and made a first batch to try in “yumami” mode, we literally just ate the whole cup plain from the pot, with nothing added, it was so good. It takes quite some time (just over an hour) but unless we’re in a rush, we always time it to make in this option vs the much shorter (half hour) white rice option. This one is still good but there is a noticeable difference. Rinsing the rice well before putting it in also helps a lot so don’t skip this step. I recently discovered that it also works pretty well for various one-pot recipes (e.g. slow cooker stuff), and we make a risotto in it as well. It’s a bit more work – I usually put it in “steam” mode at first to get high heat on the bowl and fry garlic, onion and veg/reduce wine, and once the base is ready I just pour in 3:1 stock plus risotto rice (or paella/caldoso rice – works pretty much the same), set it to short grain setting and close (adding cheese a few minutes before the end). The result is very close to slaving away pouring stock bit by bit, and so much easier. Two small complaints I have: 1) the keep warm feature on a small amount of rice is not amazing unless you can give the rice a good stir when it’s done and then close again. I generally avoid leaving the rice in the cooker for more than half an hour, and if I can’t start it accordingly I use the timer feature (to finish by certain time) rather than kicking it off straight away and having it sit there for a while 2) whilst it’s possible to cook less than 2 cups of rice, the markings on the bowl only start at this point. For 2 people, we usually make 1.5 cup which means I always have to measure out both rice and water in the cup. But it’s a very small gripe.

High quality, cooks really well and has a lot of options. Rice comes out delicious and perfect every time. The different settings really do affect the flavor.
