TOSHIBA Rice Cooker Small 3-Cup Uncooked– LCD Display with 8 Cooking Functions: Rice, Oatmeal, Mixed Grains and More, NonStick Inner Pot, Grey

Easy to clean, easy to use, and damn well worth the money. I got this as a beginners step of having my own rice cooker while I'm independent, and I love it. I wanted this as a 'i dont need a super fancy one yet' sort of purchase instead of getting the one that sings to you and cooks rice at a certain time and etc. I haven't tried to make much else in this cooker. besides WHITE MEDIUM GRAIN SUISHI GRADE RICE. I wash and rinse my rice, 5 times before (3 is unlucky, and 4 isnt enough sorta rule). Drain, and add to the pot. Let it cook for about the suggested 50 minutes and bam it's perfect everytime. No burning, no crunchy undercooked rice, it's absolutely perfect and fluffy. The keep warm feature does it's job and it's definitely a keeper. I will say though, the 50 minute rice time the machine says is a little bit surprising at first, especially if you decide to presoak your rice after washing. But honestly I think that 50 min is [for the 15 min] soaking bit built in since it take a bit to warm up, but even then I NEVER have had a bad batch of rice sense getting this rice cooker. (Also I will say if your bag of rice says cup to water ration on the bag, but the booklet says different always default to the bag of rice -- the people who bag it probably know it a bit better than the spit balling of some algorithm) The added rice paddle and ladle are super handy too. I make Japanese style curry a lot and I use the ladle for my curry and the rice paddle to make everything else involving the rice (fluffy, distributing, packing into rice molds, storing). The inside bowl is removeable and easy to clean with a simple pass with a sponge, a rinse, and a dry. I will say that it definitely didn't smell bad out of the box, and I only gave the pan a soaping and everything else a cursory wipe down. After using it to make rice, you literally just washing it out the same way, soaping and a wipe or two with a sponge and then drying. If you dry it on the rack, it will literally be ready to go back in after about 20 minutes, if not less (no joke.) The booklet comes with recommendations, recipes, and more. It might not sing you a little tune, but it's definitely a good rice cooker for a poor beginner! I was on the fence about having it and using it, but now I love it and even if I don't use it everyday I can't imagine my life without it. Anyway I LOVE IT. If anything happens to it down the line, I will definitely update this review.

I love this rice cooker. I used to have a small 4 cup cooks rice cooker that only had one switch and that was to cook and keep the rice warm. When I started looking around for a new one, I was looking for a step above of what I had but nothing expensive. I came across this rice cooker and decided to give Toshiba a chance. It's nice and compact, it came with 2 different spoons for different purposes. The quality of the rice cooker itself is great, it's sleek and comes with a handle to carry it around. The cord is a bit short but not a deal breaker. It comes with instructions on how to use it's various modes to cook from rice to steam vegetables. Rice cooks perfectly all the time and it has a removable seal to release steam as it's cooking. If you're looking for a good multi function rice cooker to begin with I recommend this one.

I love this rice cooker! This is by far the absolute best rice cooker I have ever used. It's the real deal and its fool-proof (meaning its a perfect fit for me!). Never undercooked or overcooked. Perfect (and I mean perfect!) rice every time. I primarily cook brown rice with it and its amazing. Just make sure you rinse your rice a few times before you cook it. I like the smaller unit, as I typically only make one serving at a time. It's just the best! If I could give it 6 (or 10) stars, I would do that without hesitation.

This rice cooker has been a great upgrade to the basic one we had for years. With multiple options, this has a lot of flexibility. Rice cooking times of 50 mins and 30 mins makes cooking easy as can be. If I need it done faster its nice to have the option. The warming feature is also nice to have rice ready throughout the day. Its easy to clean and has a cool handle to make moving the device easily.

tested this 3-cup Toshiba against an older Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy using 145g of Janine Rice rinsed with two changes of water. I used 250g water which matched the recommended physical volume to the lines indicated on both machines. Both machines were started simultaneously and took nearly the same amount of time to complete (54 minutes). The Toshiba rice was satisfactory but still inferior to the Zojirushi. The Toshiba produced a softer, stickier end product. The Zojirushi showed better grain separation with a slightly al dente mouth feel. This is not surprising given that the Zojirushi is triple the price and has long been considered the best home rice cooker on the market. It is worth noting that this comparison is for one cup of rice in a 3-cup Toshiba vs. 5-cup Zojirushi. Also, it's possible that the Toshiba would do better with less water — the manual permits adjusting the water +/- 33% — but I have not done so. Beyond price, there are other reasons to consider the Toshiba. The liner is significantly heavier with a very high quality non-stick coating. I'm replacing the Zojirushi because the liner is heavily scratched and a replacement is out of stock on their website and going for over $120 on the secondary market. Additionally, the Toshiba has settings for cake, hard boiled eggs and slow cooking. It is also available in the smaller size I want (Zojirushi seems to only offer 3-cup in their only Micon line which other testers have found slightly inferior to Neuro Fuzzy). The Toshiba is less bulbous which makes it easier to store and provides an estimated cook time upon starting while the Zojirushi only displays a countdown later in the cooking process. Both keep programmed time when unplugged although the Toshiba does not display the time unless you plug it in. I would prefer the Zojirushi's automatic cord retraction to the removable plug on the Toshiba but the retraction on the Zojirushi has partially failed so that advantage is moot. Overall, the Toshiba should please all but the most discerning rice afficianados and with some adjustments to the water amount it may do even better. It's also worth noting that in third party testing no rice cooker earns perfect marks across all types of rice, but I have not performed those tests myself. I for one am keeping the Toshiba as it provides an excellent value and preferable form factor while producing rice that only barely falls short of the best.

Adorei a panela, linda mas queima um pouco o arroz.

Súper fácil de usar y el arroz siempre queda perfecto y rápido, ya sea usando el modo cocción rápida o el modo normal siempre queda perfecto el arroz.

this seller is responsible. worth for 5 stars review!

Simplemente la mejor, súper útil y puedes hacer más que solo arroz

Entrega sem problema, e atendeu minhas expectativas. Único "ponto negativo" seria a necessidade de adaptador de tomada.
