Toshiba Mini Rice Cooker, 3 Cups Uncooked Small Rice Cooker, Steamer & Warmer, With Fuzzy Logic And One-Touch Cooking, 24 Hour Delay Timer And Auto Keep Warm Feature, White

Since I came from Japan, rice is a very important part of my meals—especially Japanese rice, which I use for sushi and traditional dishes. This rice cooker is perfect: it cooks Japanese rice exactly as it should be—soft, fluffy, and with the right moisture level.I use it every day as a student, and it really makes my life easier. It’s compact, fits easily in my dorm room, and has convenient features like the delay timer and keep-warm function. I also steam vegetables and adjust the texture of the rice thanks to the fuzzy logic technology.If you're a student or living alone, and you care about good rice—especially Japanese rice—I definitely recommend it.

Easy to clean, easy to use, and damn well worth the money. I got this as a beginners step of having my own rice cooker while I'm independent, and I love it. I wanted this as a 'i dont need a super fancy one yet' sort of purchase instead of getting the one that sings to you and cooks rice at a certain time and etc. I haven't tried to make much else in this cooker. besides WHITE MEDIUM GRAIN SUISHI GRADE RICE. I wash and rinse my rice, 5 times before (3 is unlucky, and 4 isnt enough sorta rule). Drain, and add to the pot. Let it cook for about the suggested 50 minutes and bam it's perfect everytime. No burning, no crunchy undercooked rice, it's absolutely perfect and fluffy. The keep warm feature does it's job and it's definitely a keeper. I will say though, the 50 minute rice time the machine says is a little bit surprising at first, especially if you decide to presoak your rice after washing. But honestly I think that 50 min is [for the 15 min] soaking bit built in since it take a bit to warm up, but even then I NEVER have had a bad batch of rice sense getting this rice cooker.(Also I will say if your bag of rice says cup to water ration on the bag, but the booklet says different always default to the bag of rice -- the people who bag it probably know it a bit better than the spit balling of some algorithm)The added rice paddle and ladle are super handy too. I make Japanese style curry a lot and I use the ladle for my curry and the rice paddle to make everything else involving the rice (fluffy, distributing, packing into rice molds, storing). The inside bowl is removeable and easy to clean with a simple pass with a sponge, a rinse, and a dry. I will say that it definitely didn't smell bad out of the box, and I only gave the pan a soaping and everything else a cursory wipe down. After using it to make rice, you literally just washing it out the same way, soaping and a wipe or two with a sponge and then drying. If you dry it on the rack, it will literally be ready to go back in after about 20 minutes, if not less (no joke.)The booklet comes with recommendations, recipes, and more. It might not sing you a little tune, but it's definitely a good rice cooker for a poor beginner! I was on the fence about having it and using it, but now I love it and even if I don't use it everyday I can't imagine my life without it. Anyway I LOVE IT. If anything happens to it down the line, I will definitely update this review.
