AROMA® Digital Rice Cooker, 4-Cup (Uncooked) / 8-Cup (Cooked), Steamer, Multicooker, Slow Cooker, Oatmeal Cooker, Auto Keep Warm, 2 Qt, Stainless Steel Exterior

I love this rice cooker, with all the convenience it offers. It not only make your rice and grains in it, you can also sauté aromatics to flavor your food. I found this extremely useful, when I wanted to make a pilaf or something else in it. So far I’ve only used it for rice and grains like farro and bulgur (kasha). It makes all kinds of rice; sushi, jasmine, basmati, risotto or any long grain rice, even brown rice. It makes the different kinds of rice and grains, without you worrying about the timing or texture. There are lots of other options on this unit, for making other types of recipes in it. It slow cooks, steams, reheats and many other options as well. It has a digital display, so you know where it is in the cooking process. It lets you know when it is about to finish, and how much time is left. it also has a warming element, which it automatically goes to when the food is cooked. It actually can be used to cook and automatically go to the warm cycle when it’s done. It can be kept for a good amount of time, though you shouldn’t leave rice in it for too long. The pan is nonstick, making it easy to clean. If there is a con for this cooker, it’s that the manual isn’t really clear about the timing and options for grains other than rice. There also isn’t a lot of recipes included with it, or on their website. Their reference to cups of rice and other things it does is that the cup provided for measuring out the food is really onły 3/4 of a cup, not a standard 1 cup. The lines inside the pot are hard to read, and experienced chefs will use the amount of water or broth per the type of rice. They are quite clear however, about the amount that their cup is 3/4 of a cup, not a standard measurement. However I have found that if you use either their cup, or a standard 1 cup, the cooker is very good at discerning how much time it needs to make it. even used my usual method of measuring the liquid by using my finger going up to my knuckle (with my finger to adjust for cooking, regardless of kind or type of rice. I also use the same technique any kind of rice, just remember to put your finger tip down on the top of the rice and liquid. I definitely recommend this rice cooker. I originally bought it to replace a very old rice cooker that I had lost their manual and couldn’t get it off their website. I’m very happy with this brand and what it can do I recommend this choice of brand, with its options and sizes of rice cookers.

Cooks rice perfect easy to use and clean. I do Recommend this cooker

This is by far my favorite rice cooker I’ve ever purchased. It cooks rice perfectly every time, and the Quick Rice option is a game changer and it’s noticeably faster than my previous cooker which I appreciate when needing to whip up a quick meal. The rice comes out with just the right amount of stickiness, which I personally love. I’ve also been pleasantly surprised by how much I use the other functions, especially the sauté-then-simmer feature. I’ve even tried a few of the recipes from the included booklet, and they were fantastic! The frittata recipe has become a go-to for lazy mornings when I want something tasty without much effort. Overall, the value for the price is excellent. The generous size alone makes it worth it, but combined with the performance and features, it’s honestly one of the best kitchen purchases I’ve made.

so far the best rice cooker i have ever bought. it holds a nice amount of food and cooks food fully. the rice is cooked to perfection

I’ve had the Aroma Housewares ARC-5200SB Rice & Grain Cooker for over 4 years, and it’s been a daily staple in my kitchen. It’s held up incredibly well, and I use it for everything from rice and grains to slow cooking, soups, and oatmeal. The durability and versatility of this cooker are unmatched. When it finally gave out after years of daily use, I knew I had to purchase the same model again. It’s easy to use, cleans up well, and consistently produces perfect results. If you’re looking for a reliable, multi-functional cooker, this is definitely a great investment! Highly recommend for anyone who needs a dependable kitchen appliance.

I've used it a number of times, and it works really well. Occasionally, some water will come out of the top vent, but it's never been more than a few drops. The inner bowl comes out easily and cleans just as easy. I only cook four cups of dry rice at a time, which is the max. Single push settings, and a forced timer for the steaming. It does claim to cook a bunch of things, but the steam tray is too small for a lot of stuff unless you chop it all up. The only thing I really don't like about it is that there's no timer for the rice. I clocked it, and it takes about 45 minutes for the full four cups. It cooks perfectly every time, though. The bowl even seems to be non-stick, as I can upturn it and plop the rice out in a nice flat-topped dome shape without any hassle. Mine came with a rice paddle.

Makes yummy rice, perfect size for my kitchen. 😍

We purchased our first Aroma rice cooker about 5 years ago and when it finally stopped working we came back to get a new one - Upgrade. I absolutely love the AROMA Professional Digital Rice Cooker! It’s not just a rice cooker—it’s a multicooker that handles white rice, brown rice, eggs, oatmeal, steaming, slow cooking, and even sauté-then-simmer for flavorful dishes. We use our rice cooker a LOT since we can do so many different things. It stays on our kitchen counter. The 10-cup capacity is ideal for small to medium families, and the included steam tray lets me cook veggies or fish while rice cooks below—huge time saver! The digital controls are intuitive, and the 15-hour delay timer is a lifesaver for meal planning. Cleanup is easy thanks to the non-stick inner pot, and the stainless steel exterior looks sleek on my counter. If you want a compact, multifunctional cooker that delivers consistent results, this is the one! Highly recommend for anyone who wants value for the money, durability, convenience without sacrificing quality, then this is the rice cooker for you.
