Aroma Housewares 4-Cups (Cooked) / 1Qt. Rice & Grain Cooker (ARC-302NGP), Pink

Finally found this perfect size rice cooker good for 2 people. Easy to use and clean. Now it’s easy to cook rice without much left over. It’s a mini version of my regular cooker and at first, I thought it might be too small. Turned out, it was perfect to cook rice any time so easily. One cup is enough for 2 people but it can cook up to 2 cups. Looks well made and works like my regular size rice cooker which I have been using for many 20+ years. My husband likes freshly cooked rice with his meals all the time and this is great! Highly recommend it.

It's a great little rice cooker. It's much smaller than I expected when I ordered honestly but this is no issue for me. Max it will hold 1.5 (white) cups of rice. The first couple times I used it it did give off a strong chemical smell which was a little concerning but did not affect the taste of the rice and was completely gone by the 3rd use.They give you a little cup which measures 3/4 cup and if you fill the rice cooker to max which is 2 of the cups they give you it will be hard to fluff the rice because it does completely fill it up. I also noticed that using the instructions they provide you the rice comes out a bit overcooked and mushy for my taste. I have taken to using 1 cup and a filling it hardly enough to cover the rice (a teeny bit less than. 1 c water) and it cooks perfectly.It comes with a glass lid so if you have leftovers I have taken to just putting the lid on and popping it in the fridge! It comes in a variety of cute colors and takes up minimal counter space and is super easy to clean. I have a a family of 3 and this cooks the perfect amount for us all. Super affordable and definitely worth the buy!

This rice cooker does a great job, but it is advertised as a 4 cup cooker and there's no way on earth it would hold 4 cups. In fact, preparing 2 cups of rice (2 cups water, 1 cup rice) makes a huge mess. Water spurts out from under the lid, etc. and leaves residue all over the outer pot. (I put a dish towel under it to help keep the splatter contained)It's a great little rice cooker for smaller amounts of rice, oatmeal, etc. Easy to clean up!

Some people complain that making rice is a pain, but I've never had a problem with it. I could never see the need for a rice cooker. And I even have a lot of friends who are much better cooks than I am, who make rice all the time, and they all have rice cookers that they rave about. But I just couldn't imagine taking up space in my kitchen counter or cupboards for a "one-hit-wonder" that I really didn't need.Then my girlfriend complained to me one day about how hard it is to make rice and other grains, so I bought her one of these little guys. The next day, we busted it out and made some brown rice. Boom! No problem. She was hooked! And... I was hooked! So I bought this one as soon as I got home.The beauty of this cooker is that it's small - just the right size for one or two people. And it uses the same design used for decades in other rice cookers. It's simple, effective and works beautifully. The reason I like it now is that it uses one less burner on the stove and it takes care of itself. As I'm working on the rest of the meal, it just sits in the corner, minding its own business and cooking the rice. Once the rice is ready, it keeps it warm until the rest of the meal is ready to go.The cooker comes with a variety of recipes and outlines other uses beyond rice. I might get adventurous one of these days and give them a try. But given that it can heat soups and oatmeal and other "one-pot" dishes, it would be a great gift for a student or someone living in a studio apartment. I love it!

Great rice cooker, easy to use and clean, makes perfect rice and doesn't burn it, every time, its quick and quiet, and at a great price, have always trusted the name "Aroma" and once its done, it will keep it warm and ready for you.

This cooker gets used just about every morning for making oatmeal. It cooks the rolled oats (and rice) perfectly every time. The item is very easy to use and clean. Convenient size for smaller households.

love this. No mess, no hassle. Will scorch the bottom of the rice if you leave it on warm to long.
