Hamilton Beach Compact 6-Cup Digital Programmable Rice Cooker & Food Steamer

My husband and I just can't cook rice. We've tried and failed too much. Decided to try out this rice cooker and it did not disappoint! Its so easy to use and the quality, taste, and smell? Omg I want rice all day cuz of this! The lid seal is great and easily pops off for easy cleaning. Its so simple my kids could use it. We learned the hard way USE THE MEASURING CUP IT COMES WITH! The water level and amount of rice are different measurements than US standard. So if you want the nice texture of rice, use what it comes with and read the instructions, cuz it also says it there as well.

I got the 10 cup uncooked version, and overall it’s a good rice cooker. It looks nice on the counter, the size is perfect for family meals, and it’s easy to clean. The non stick pot and the steam basket are super convenient. The rice comes out pretty good, fluffy and not sticky, and the “keep warm” feature works well without drying it out. The only thing is that it takes longer to cook than I expected. It still gets the job done, but I feel like I spend more time waiting compared to other rice cookers I’ve used. It’s a decent product and works as described, but I’m not sure I’d buy it again just because of how long it takes.

I absolutely love this Hamilton Beach Digital Rice Cooker! It’s so easy to use and makes cooking rice a breeze. The programmable settings are super convenient, and I can set it and walk away while it cooks perfectly every time. The included steam and rinse baskets are a fantastic bonus — I can steam veggies or fish while the rice cooks, which saves so much time. The stainless steel design looks sleek in my kitchen and is easy to clean. This rice cooker is compact but cooks plenty — perfect for meals for my family. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for an easy, efficient, and versatile rice cooker!

We bought this rice cooker because it had a function to cook hot cereal. My husband makes steel cut oats in it every night to have for breakfast in the morning. I ordered a new one for him for Christmas so we could put one in our new RV. The product arrived in the original package with some slight damage to the package. Because it was a gift I did not open it up I just wrapped it up for Christmas. We didn't need the rice cooker right away so we put it aside till we did. It is the middle of April and my husband is just now opening up the rice cooker to use it. When he opened the box he discovered that the outside it dented pretty good. It still functions but just doesn't look as nice as the others we have previously owned. That is why I gave it 4 stars. Functionality: this is a great product. We have purchased three in the last couple of years. We originally bought this rice cooker to replace a small round crockpot that the ceramic crock had broken. This product works well. My husband loves that he can set up his cereal before he goes to bed and it's ready in the morning. It has a delay timer hat will start the cooking and then when it's done it keeps the cereal warm and till ges ready to eat it. I have also made rice in it. I love that I can set up the rice to cook and then not have to worry about it while it's cooking. The rice comes out perfectly cooked and fluffy. It is not sticky. The rice cooker has an insert for steaming a small amount of vegetables or you can hard boil five eggs. I have not done either of those functions cause I have other ways to cook those items. Overall we love this product and highly recommend it. I would definitely buy it again.

What neat little rice cooker! No mess no fuss and perfect rice. No stick and easy to clean.

Smaller than my older unit, but dud the job. Its so cute and takes up less of the counter footprint. The only negative is the markings on the inside of the rice bin is not as easy to see after you load up. All in all I like it and will be keeping

Very good 8

I had two el cheapo rice cookers before, and they lasted a couple of years each, but I expect this one will last 10 or 15 years. Well constructed and very understandable controls.
