TOSHIBA Small Rice Cooker, 3-Cup Uncooked, for 1-3 People, LCD Display, 8 Cooking Functions, Nonstick Inner Pot, Grey

Perfect for my husband and myself. Cooked black rice on the Brown Rice mode perfectly. You can tell the ceramic bowl was nicely made and has some nice weight to it. True non-stick and super easy to wash, food just tends to slide right off. Recommend for college students that live in dorms since it's nice and a not too small. Nice for cooking a complete meal inside, and the mode buttons are easy to see and use.

Works well, makes rice perfect every time, measurements are good and keeps it heated well without burning it to the pot. The ceramic is so easy to clean and durable, the functions are versatile.

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.

This is perfect for two people and works beautifully. I cook white rice, white with brown rice, and white with mixed grains on the white rice setting. This setting includes a soak time and produces soft, fluffy grains. If you're in a hurry, the quick setting takes 20 minutes less. I recommend an inexpensive silicone rice paddle to preserve the non-stick coating of the pot.

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.

I wasn’t sure I should bother getting this. I mean, how hard is it to cook rice? All I can say is this is the best rice I’ve ever had. Much better than what I was making. It also made hard-boiled eggs. I’m going to try some one pot meals in it. It’s perfect for one person. It’s easy to use. And easy to clean.

Small but it fits good on what you need in that moment, it’s excellent plus you can do a lot of things, has multiple functions and it taste more better, specially it’s more healthy eating inside of your house and not getting sick from outside, specially if you want to be Healthy.

Really happy with this rice cooker! The size is perfect for 2 people and doesn’t take up much counter space. The LCD display is simple and clear. Rice comes out fluffy and evenly cooked. The design also looks modern and clean in my kitchen.

Mi esposo y yo estamos encantados con la arrocera, es muy funcional y práctica. Puedes preparar hasta platillos y la cocción de los alimentos siempre queda perfecto. Muy útil para hacer arroz, pero también hemos preparado pasteles, pechuga de pollo en su jugo, gyudon y todavía estamos explorando más opciones. Muy buen precio en comparación a otras ollas mágicas como Oster, pero práctica, a excelente precio y muy funcional

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.

Perfeito! Mantém o arroz quentinho!
