Too Expensive
Too much money for the cooker. Originally willing to purchase it with the gifts offered but the offer expired so I took a chance with the purchase. Not worth it without the gifts.

Perfect Rice Every Time
Makes perfect rice every time. Only complaint is that it is a bit noisy when making the rice, but I guess that is the function of the induction heating? I did try making quinoa in there which didn't really turn out as good as I had hoped, but for the most part, I'm really just making rice in there, which is great.

Excellent rice maker - perfect rice every time
Excellent rice maker. Come out perfect every time. Have tried basmati, brown, mixed, black and red quinoa and it’s always perfect. East to clean. Looks nice. Great purchase. Highly recommend.

Clean, easy, and simple to use.
Easy to use. Wife was using an "old" Instapot which would spray starch water from the pressure valve all over the kitchen, had a menu that was a bit confusing, and was a little hit or miss on rice. This took all the variables out, and makes great rice.

Quality and Consistency
I am very pleased with the rice cooker. I've used it for brown rice, GABA brown rice, quinoa and steel cut oatmeal. It all turned out perfectly. Consistent results every time! The quality of the rice cooker is exceptional.

Pricey but very good
Haven’t had any issues with it yet. Have only made white rice with it but I noticed there are other options as well. Rice always comes out cooked well, and the heating feature can keep it good for up to a day or two, though obviously it starts to dry out. Comes with a lifetime warranty as well I think

Amazing and worth every penny!
I saw the price of this and thought to myself, “wow, this is a lot for a rice cooker!” After using it for over a month, if you’re debating, stop and buy it. This makes your rice so unbelievably perfect with no under or overcooked grains of rice. If you eat rice daily, like me, then this is a game changer!

New cooker with IH is so nice.
So far using my new cooker has been very nice. The controls are easy to use, and cleaning is much easier than with my previous rice cooker, with less worry about moisture outside of the cooking bowl. I have used it to cook white rice, mixed rice (jambalaya), curry rice, steamed vegetables and even steamed meat buns and dumplings to great taste.

A great tool for the kitchen
Executes great for what it’s intended to do. Great rice, great oatmeal. Well made. Very easy to cleanup. Keep warm function is great at not drying out food for lengthy periods. Glad we purchased.

Perfect!
My wife and I have never owned a rice cooker and decided it would help now that we have twins! anything to make our lives easier and this thing is amazing. We have tried each type of setting and grain like rice, oats, quinoa, and each time it is perfection. We really wish we got it sooner. It's small enough that we can store it away after each use and still use it daily. All the pieces are easy to clean and simple to assemble. Really all around perfect and glad we got it.

Great features and user friendly
Excellent experience so far; brown rice, steel cut oats, spelt berries, farro and fresh steamed vegetables have all come out of this little machine perfectly. I'm terrible at cooking rice and grains on the stove so cost vs. ease of use in my case makes this rice maker completely worth it. I have no complaints about the length of time any grain takes to cook because the results are amazing and it's easy enough to plan ahead. It's also easy to clean.

Perfect rice every time
cooked up perfect short grain white, jasmine and mixed white rice so far. every grain was consistently the same texture. made for great egg fried rice with leftovers the next day as well. also great with steaming broccolli and carrots as an addition to my meal. super easy to clean and compact package made it easy to store.

Excellent rice and worthy of display
I'm not foodie and I can't wax on in great detail about rice. But what I can say is we eat a lot of rice and this cooker will make it restaurant grade. We've done at least 6 batches of rice in the first few weeks and each time it's been great. Operation is very simple once you figure out the menus (it took me 10 mins) and cleaning this is ridiculously easy. The bowl is bonkers thick and really smooth/slick. Dried rice wipes off after a 10 minute soak in water (if you don't clean it right after use). The construction of this is rock solid and the details they paid attention to are impressive: 1) A ridge that is high enough to prevent water going into the induction heat bowl, 2) handle dips so you can take the bowl out easily, 3) lid removal is impossibly simple, etc. My only critique is that the fan of this model was louder than expected and you'll definitely know when this is cooking rice from the fan noise. But it's worth looking beyond that for the features and the quality of rice this produces. It has a dedicated space on the kitchen counter because it looks so nice and is more compact than I expected. We did buy an extra bowl anticipating it will wear out while the cooker is still going strong. We're very very pleased with this model and hope it gives us many years of quality cooked rice.
