Hamilton Beach Digital Programmable Rice Cooker & Food Steamer, 8 Cups Cooked (4 Uncooked), With Steam & Rinse Basket, Stainless Steel (37518)

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.

Excellent rice cooker, just follow directions and turn on, perfectly cooked rice every time

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!

Tried this out today and I mostly love it. I cooked two cups of white rice and it was pretty painless. Fill the measuring cup that's included twice, and add two cups of water. hit a button and walk away. I wasn't really paying attention, but I think it was done in about twenty minutes. When it finishes cooking it will switch to a warming cycle that lasts for twelve hours. So you really don't have to worry about it sitting too long or overcooking. My only complaint is the readability of the rice measuring cup, and the cooking container. The measuring cup doesn't seem as important. One cup makes one cup of cooked rice; good for a one person meal. However, the cooking container has lines embossed in it for how much water to add but the marks and text are simply indented in the metal with no paint to make it readable. I have bad eyesight and it's practically useless to me. I actually paid no attention to the markings and just measured two cups in a measuring cup. It's not a big deal, but I just wish it was more readable. It would make it just a little easier to use without having to grab a measuring cup. I could just take it to the sink to fill. Overall, I'm very happy with the cooker. The quality of the rice seemed much better than I usually get from instant rice on the stove.

Needed a larger rice cooker, so selected this one. We had the same brand, but smaller. The machine is strong in design. Made a large amount of rice. Had left overs to store for other dishes. Rice tasted good, and each grain on the first time use came out as individuals and not stuck together nicely. But like normal did stick together as it sat. Might been wife, but could have used a slightly bit more water over all when cooked. Hard to say if it was her, or she went by the directions given with machine.

I purchased this product hoping to finally make rice that’s edible and not overcooked—and it delivered! I also wanted to see if it could really cook grits and oatmeal. I tried both for my nephew, and he loved them. It was so easy! Last night, I tested it with a yellow rice that I always struggle to cook on the stove, and it was a total lifesaver. This is honestly the best rice cooker in the world, and I would definitely recommend it!

I'm just now getting around to using this item. I did 6 hard boiled eggs. I know, I added one to the middle to make it six. I have misplaced my user guide so I added 2 cups of water. I'll probably add 1.5 next time. The eggs are boiled to a perfection. They did break open a little but the yoke is still awesomely cooked. I think it was due to the extra water. They are actually steaming and not boiling. I think mine did both haha! I'm getting ready to do some brown rice. I would recommend this item. Nice, simple, easy, and fits anywhere due to it's size.

Daughter said works great in her kitchen

Me encantó la facilidad con la que funciona, lo que más me gusta es que puede cocinar semillas duras como frijol o lenteja y ya no tendré que usar la olla express. Aún me faltan muchas cosas que probar pero estoy muy contenta con mi compra.

I bought 2 other brands prior to my buying this. I was VERY disappointed with the first 2. I was about to give up but thought I'd persevere and make a third attempt. Glad I did. Hamilton Beach can't be beat. It efficiently makes white rice, quinoa, steel cut oats and also steams! User-friendly. No mess on kitchen counter, and the instructions say it uses "fuzzy logic" to determine cooking time. Well, the logic, even if fuzzy, works like a charm. I would buy 2 except that I no longer have space in my kitchen. But I know a good product when I see one, and this one is a clear winner. Way to go, Hamilton Beach! You make my cooking tasks so much easier (I also have Hamilton Beach microwave). Buy it folks!

La mejor compra después de probar varias está esta es la arrocera que más vale la pena, llegando y haciendo sushi queda perfecto, evidentemente siguiendo las instrucciones ( mismas que vienen en el contenido de la caja) UNA CHULADA !!!!

Lo compre como capricho sin imaginar que se convertiria en uno de mis accesoriosas usados y preferido; el arroz se hace muy bien y queda con muy buen sabor; la facilidad de uso es sorprendente; los accesorios que trae son super útiles. Se me ha llegado a olvidar después de ponerla a hacer algo y el hecho de terminado el tiempo solo mantener la comida es sorprendente. Ampliamente recomendado

Many rice cookers have a single button to start the cooking process that, like a toaster, pops up to warm after cooking. These are great for cooking bulk white rice from a bag. Once you get into wild rice and different grains you will find that this method does not always give you the best results, temperature and time are critical, and more control is needed even to the point where you can cook certain rice better in a pot on the stove. This should not happen, and it happens only because your rice cooker can not compensate for different cooking cycles. This cooker has enough settings that I can get perfect rice no matter what I put in it and for me that matters. As far as functionality, this is the best rice cooker I have ever tried and I have been using them for many years. * And always keep the bottom of the lid (the seal) as clean as possible on any rice cooker.
