i steamed broccoli in it for 10 minutes and it came out amazing :)
It's extremely easy to use, I use it 2 or 3 times a week. I hand wash my inner pot, it takes minutes to do. Empty the condensation catcher every time. I mostly make Jasmine or basmati, I use low sodium chicken broth and lime zest or lemon zest. It's the best appliance I own. Great price great product. I wholeheartedly agree with this video!
I got my cooker about a month ago but just opened the box this morning. I immediately had questions and turned to KZread. Your video was the first one up. You answered all my questions. Great video. Thank you.
I bought this 6 months ago and although I had no problem cooking rice on the stove, this rice cooker is great. Just cooks on its own and you don't have to watch it like on the stove. I misplaced the measuring cup forvthe cooker but just use a 1 to 1 ratio for water and rice and it comes out perfect every time.
Been using this awesome rice cooker for a year. I lost the measuring cup but thanks to you, I know it's 3/4 cup. To ensure a non-stick coating, I add a dab of something like olive oil, ghee butter (or regular), and this not only prevents any sticking but adds a little texture and moisture. Happy Cooking!

How long does 2 cup of rice take to cook?
@jeolmo

@@lour58 I'd say less than 20-25 minutes. I like to add things like chicken breast chunks, mixed veggies, which add a few more minutes. If you are into rice and beans (like I am) you can buy the Goya Rice & Red Beans, Seasoned Rice Mix, add a little olive oil and necessary water...and voila! You're a Latin chef :-). They have different Goya Rice - check them out. As for this cooker, GET IT!

Thanks for being so thorough. I didn't know about that condensation catcher and mine had mold! Glad to know to clean it now!
Thank you so much for actually explaining how to clean the cooker! I've seen so many reviews and no one had explained it! Very helpful video 🤗
Yes it is, I've cooked white rice, BBQ country style ribs. BBQ chicken legs, sweet potatoes, broccoli and now I'm steaming Brussel sprouts. So it's cooked everything perfect. And no standing over it like cooking on stove top. I love my Aroma 8 cup Rice Cooker.
I dusted off my Aroma rice cooker intending to give it away but I changed my mind and decided to start using it again. There were some things about it that I never knew. This demo was extremely helpful!!
Just got mine a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you! This is the best review. I love how how thorough you are. Subscribed
Thank you for this review! Was really worried because I've never had a rice cooker, so I wasn't sure about pricing, brands and quality. It is such a helpful and complete video on it.

Alfredo Baro Thanks so much! I’m glad it was helpful for you.
Thank you for clarifying some details on use. I was confused (happens easily!) and really found this video helpful.
Just recently received this and came here bc I was confused about the "chasing lines" once I start my rice cooker to steam rice. This has helped me! Thank you so much
This video was very helpful 🤗 never knew exactly how a rice cooker worked but now I am leaning toward buying one!
Awesome video! Also was impressed when you said “chasing dot pattern” I’d have no idea what to call that 😂
I've had an Aroma rice cooker for over 20 years, it's lasted that long, but recently it's getting wonky and not cooking consistently. Like you, I cook rice every week so bought the newest one for $30. Best value ever on a simple rice cooker.
Thank you for this review! I was so confused about the chasing line on the rice cooker since it wasn't in the instructions - thank you!

Liked your review of the aroma Rice Cooker thanks. My rice was perfectly cooked & delicious.
Perfect! When I seen like 10+ min video I almost left but remembered you can now scan over to see where the content your looking for is...and it worked, question answered...I was wondering about the little thing in the center going around and around. Thank you so much! I really like mine
Thanks for this video! I got this cooker a week ago and you have been very helpful.
Hi! Thank you for the great video. It was very helpful. The inner lid tip was so important. I would never have figured out that part came off. I bought the rice cooker in a big part due to your video. There are two sets of lines and numbers on the inner pot for the rice. I was wondering if you, or anyone else, knew what the lines and numbers mean under the e. The lines do not line up with the lines for 1, 2, etc and the numbers start with a 0. I’m sure the answer is obviously, but I can’t figure it out. I have read the instructions and googled, but some how couldn’t find the answer. Thank you.
Thank you I hate reading manual so thank you!!!
Thanks for this video! Ive been nervous to use or try one but i miss eating rice and i suck at cooking it correctly. So im excited to try it out today! When i have more time for delay timer ill give that option a go.
I have stared at this Rice Cooker for a year, never using it. So thank you~! I will plug it in today because of you young lady :)
OMG THANK YOU -- I just got this & tried it last night for the first time. LOVED the way it cooked the rice & I steamed some salmon too, perfect!! BUT then I saw the condensation on the gasket at the top & worried how on earth to dry it. Thought I was going to have to return it --- you saved the day showing that the inner lid comes off!! The book doesn't say that, at least that I noticed. Popped it off, dried everything, & now I'm going to keep it & use it all the time!! :)
Thanks for the detailed review of this rice cooker. I am excited to start using my new Aroma product to cook rice and steam vegetables.
The tip about how the delay timer works was really very helpful. Thanks.

Wow thanks soo much. This is why I love videos like these. You take such good time in explaining everything in details (just the way i like)🥺🙈. I want to buy this and was looking for a video review to convince me and your definitely did. Thanks again. Be blessed ❤️
Thanks for the review. A lot of people say 2 cups of water per 1 of rice but it just kept coming out soggy all the time. Thanks for clarifying the lines on the cooker.
Thanks for doing this I just bought one from a thrift store and it didn't come with instructions and yours was the first KZread video I found and it was perfect. I think I will subscribe and see what else you have on your Channel. thanks again
Thank you for explaining everything. That was great presentation. So if I want to eat my white rice in one hour, be will it cook it in one hour ? The reasoning i ask us because I make white rice and it usually is done in 45 minutes
Great for young adults like myself getting in the swing of cooking! My mom owns one and when I move out I will definitely purchase one of my own! Awesome details 🙌🏾💯

I just got one the other day. I like the small size as I live in a cabin with minimal space. I also like the fact that I can cook a variety of other foods, even cake and stewed fruit.

Thank you. Very concise and understandable instructions. Easy enough for anyone to follow.
Excellent review&tutorial 💯 thank you boo! 🥰 about to go use mine now!!
Hi Coral, great video! Quick question as I have the same rice cooker. Inside the pot there are two sets of lines. One is cup, the other looks like a cursive "L". Is that "L" side represent liters? Thanks
Exactly what I needed to know!! Very helpful & informative video!
Just received mine. Thank you so much for the information.
I know people are whining about this video being too long with too much talking. But I needed to know how to take the inner lid off and came out knowing that and unexpectedly learning about how the delay feature works, so clearly it’s doing something right.
Wow, me encanta. Con mi arrocera Aromo hago maravillas. Me fascinaría tener este nuevo modelo.
I recommend this product, we have bought 3, and we use it not only for rice but for a variety of receipts, 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Super helpful 😊👍thanks
Haha. I came to find out why the timer lights were going round and round. You answered my question and then the beep and timer came on at the exact second you said it would. Thanks for the help.
Hi! I'm so glad I came across your channel because I was not sure if I was going to get it or not. I've decided to get it because you've explained everything so well. Thank you so much😊
Hey I appreciate the help. I bought my rice cooker same one and my roommate threw my box and papers away. Can you show us the steamer manual and stuff I would like to get look at the paper. Once again I really appreciate the helpful tips and im gonna subscribe to you because you were pretty good at detail on it. 😄🙂🙂
Gracias por esta información, la compré ase días y fue buena idea ver algo de información sobre este producto mil gracias
Thanks for the information on the lids!!
Thank you for the advice. My friend got me this rice cooker and I needed some advice about the rice to water ratio 😊
You explained this very well.
This helped a lot, thank you ma’am.
I have one similar but not exact (my buttons are in a gum drop shaped panel rather than a square) and i bought it used on fb market place. I pushed power and white rice and the little dots started chasing each other and I thought it was waiting for me to do something else and I didn’t know what to do so set off to KZread. I very much appreciate you addressing that bc I wasn’t sure.
Thanks for the review! Did you say it takes an hour to cook the rice?
Very informative! Thank you for the video
What setting would do for oatmeal? and how long to cook it for..??

Thank you for taking the time to show us your rice cooker, excellent video
Just got this today thanks for helping me out with this
I was going to make lentil soup today. I saute my onions and celery. But I pushed the button for saute it didnt get hot. I ended up putting my soup on stove. When I sauted on stove I thought I could put it on soup. The timer read two hours but it wasnt counting down. Any tips? So I could use it in future? For soups
Can you steam veggies while making the rice at the same time? Or do you have to do that separately?
Thank you very useful video
Wow, so easy. I will order this model today.
Thanks Coral, you are better than the manual book😊
I just got one yesterday, but I'm sure it will be worth it
This really helped me out!! (: thank you!
I love this little amazing appliance it cooks so much more than rice
Great review, Coral…Thank you very much! 😀❤️🙏🏾
This is very helpful! I own this identical Rice cooker and been using it regularly. Question: Do you know the process of cooking a stew with rice? I did it yesterday and while I had to add a little extra water to ensure the rice cooked thoroughly. In the end it turned out ok, but could've been better. I thought there was a little too much liquid. The process I used was throwing everything in the pot including the rice. However, I let the rice ( brown rice) soak for about a half hour before rinsing it and putting it in the pot. I'm thinking next time I can start the rice first, then add everything in later. Anyway, interested in getting your input on this. Thanks!

Hi! Your cute as can be! I came to KZread after buying this rice cooker the one we had was too small but much more clear cut on how to use. I did think I was doing something wrong when the light was circling! I’m happy you cleared that up! I didn’t even realise it had a delay! Great feature! Thank you so much for your review on this product!
