Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Take the guesswork out of making perfect rice with this easy-to-use rice cooker and steamer. The handy appliance offers a 5-1/2-cup uncooked-rice capacity and can produce from 2 to 11 cups of cooked rice--great for individual meals or when cooking for the whole family. Simply add dry rice, measure in the water, and turn the unit on. Once the rice has cooked, the appliance automatically switches over to "keep warm" mode, which maintains an ideal serving temperature for up to four hours without over-cooking. In addition, the unit's see-through glass lid keeps in heat and moisture and makes it possible to check on the cooking progress without releasing steam, while its durable aluminum cooking pan helps ensure even heating and cleans up easily by hand with warm water and a soapy sponge. Other highlights include "cook" and "warm" indicator lights, automatic shut-off, and a stay-cool lid knob and side handles for comfortable transport. A measuring cup comes included. The 450-watt rice cooker and steamer measures 9 by 11 by 9 inches.

Product Description

The Automatic Cooking feature cooks rice at the touch of a switch and helps reduce overcooking. The Keep Warm feature helps keep rice warm up to four hours and also keeps your rice moist after cooking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good rice cooker if you know the trick, October 5, 2006

This review is from: Panasonic SR-G10G 450-Watt 5-1/2-Cup Rice Cooker and Steamer (Kitchen)

I bought this rice cooker 2 months ago.(after having a problem with my old nonstick rice cooker) The reason I chose this one because I don't like Taflon nonstick surface. It'd come off no matter how you took good care of it. So far, I'm very pleased with it.

I'm an Asain who eat rice everyday. I cooked as little as 2 cup or as much as 5 cup (full capacity). I never had any experience about rice stick in the bottom of the pot. However, you have to know the trick. Every time you cook rice, you have to let it stand in the pot for at least 10 to 15 minutes (after the cook button change to warm button) before taking rice out of the pot, as a result, rice will never stick. And for this price ($26.99), it's very worth my money for having perfect rice in every meal. Clean up is very easy, just soak the inner pot for several minutes before cleaning.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Little Rice Cooker, May 14, 2007

By	greensbeans - See all my reviews

This review is from: Panasonic SR-G10G 450-Watt 5-1/2-Cup Rice Cooker and Steamer (Kitchen)

Size is perfect for 2 to 4 people, and cooks rice very nicely. And its true what another reviewer said - let the rice rest for 10 mins after cooking and it wont stick. I prefer to unplug it and not have the warm feature. I have cooked white and brown with this rice cooker and have obtained good results. Just be sure to adjust amount of water depending on the type of rice you are cooking.

Cleaning is easy. Couple of ergonomic things I dont like: the handles are really dinky, and the cooking pot has a very shallow lip (unlike my old 20-year National which this replaced). Also power cord is permanently attached which can be awkward for storing.
All in all, price is right!

4.0 out of 5 stars you get what you pay for, February 24, 2006

This review is from: Panasonic SR-G10G 450-Watt 5-1/2-Cup Rice Cooker and Steamer (Kitchen)

Its cheap... You want to cook rice... it will cook rice... how complicated can that get?
But dont expect perfection...
The rice sticks to the bottom especially if you leave it in there for too long after its cooked. But its not the hardest thing in the world to clean it... just leave some warm water in the vessel for a while and the rice that was stuck to the bottom comes right off...
The bottom line is that it does the job... and thats what I was looking for.
