If you've ever marveled over the perfectly prepared rice at a favorite Asian restaurant, wondering why the rice you cook at home always seems to be too sticky or overcooked, you'll be happy with this Aroma rice cooker. Housed in a white plastic body, the rice cooker stays cool to the touch while cooking, making it perfect for countertop use. It accommodates 2 to 8 cups of any variety of rice (white, brown, or wild), or can be used to steam fish, meat, poultry or vegetables. It can even be used it to make stews and soups.
Operation is markedly simple: Measure the desired amount of rinsed rice and the appropriate amount of water with the provided measuring cup into the removable anodized nonstick cooking pot. Drop the pot into the cooker, ensure that the pot makes contact with the dual heating element, close the lid (it will click shut), and plug the AC cord into the wall outlet. Then simply press the one-touch switch. The attached sealed lid creates the ideal pressure for cooking the rice--keeping it warm and moist for up to 12 hours--and the detachable water collector collects condensation, preventing boil-overs during cooking. If you have any leftovers, the cooking pot can be used to store them until you're ready to reheat by simply adding a little extra water and warming.
The cooker includes the aforementioned measuring cup, as well as a spoon, stainless-steel steam tray, instruction/recipe booklet, and a Martin Yan (from the national public television series) recipe booklet. It comes with a one-year limited warranty. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

Your Best Bet For Good Rice,

This review is from: Aroma ARC-834 Cool-Touch Rice Cooker/Food Steamer (Kitchen)
I previously bought the Aroma ARC703G, which deserves all the bad reviews it's gotten from other ... customers. This one, however, is well worth the extra money. It makes perfectly cooked rice, from your basic long grain to your basmati and wild rice; even arborio, used in risottos, come out great. The key to buying a rice cooker is its pot -- is it nonstick or not? This one is nonstick, making cleanup easy and hassle free -- unlike the ARC703G's aluminum pot, which requires so much elbow grease to clean you'd be better off making rice the old-fashioned way. Like many other rice enthusiasts, I say Zojirushi is the best brand for rice cookers, but this Aroma model is great for those who make rice only every so often or have suddenly been intrigued by rice thanks to "Survivor II."
