I never knew how much I would use this kitchen gadget! It cooks more than enough rice for my girlfriend and me. It's easy to store and makes cooking rice so much simpler. I worried that this wouldn't be as high-quality because it's at such a good price, but we've gotten a ton of use out of it and have had 0 issues. We've cooked both jasmine and white rice in here. Easy to clean and non-stick, and the built-in timer is a big help. I'm excited to try cooking different things in here! If you eat half as much rice as we do, you will love this.

This thing is even cuter in person! It's very simple, only a few parts, and very easy to use. It's even smaller than I thought so it looks cute on the countertop without taking up much space at all. All the pieces that touch food can go in the dishwasher and it even has its own measuring cup that you can just store in it. 10/10

I have been using this particular Aroma model for a few months now Generally, I've been very pleased with it. It has been very reliable, easy to clean & maintain, plus looks nice on the counter when not in use. The soft blue color adds a bit of color to a otherwise very drab room.The size is a perfect one for the various assorted dishes I cook in it. It's not too big or small for the amount of food intended to be made in it. "4 cup" is somewhat meaningless to me as I very rarely cook any rice or other grains in it. The dimensions & shape of the inner pot is more how I select a particular rice cooker to do what I want with it. Whether I'm in the market for a new one or just selecting which one(s) I already have to use on a particular day.It's was purchased to be an alternative to using a regular stove's burners or even the oven just like the others were. I own several now, purchased over the years besides this new one discussed here in this review. I usually use one at a time or sometimes even 2 of these small appliances to make mostly all I eat daily now.This is my first Aroma rice cooker. It runs a bit hotter than the slightly lower wattage (heat?) of other similar size brands. I simply prepare to generally shorten my actual cooking time when using this one. The only reason why I didn't give a 5 star excellent rating is this particular one I received operating lever switch sometimes doesn't stay in the COOK mode when depressed. I use a bit of transparent tape to hold in down without popping back up all the time. It works fine & I didn't want to take a chance to returns it. The next one might be worse!I generally recommend this rice cooker. It's basic & no frills. Perfect size for most 1-2 people's needs & portion control. Which is the #1 reason why I use any and all of these basic, mechanical "rice cookers" in the first place. And these types of Rice Cookers are an introduction to regulating food waste to almost zero! A huge help in these dark unpredictable times.

I used to bake my rice and it came out perfect every time. I don’t know what changed (there must be a scientific reason) but it started coming out burnt. Same pot, same prep, same measurements. I surrendered and bought this AROMA Mini Rice Cooker.Yes. This is very small. It makes about 4 cups of rice. NOTE: The max white raw rice you put in it is 1.5 cups. Pour water up to the “max” line inside the interior pan. The instruction booklet says that the measuring cup that comes with it is 3/4 cups. So when they say 1 cup — if you use your own measuring cup, measure out 3/4 cup.Brown rice is cooked differently. What worked for me was one (1) measured cup (NOT 3/4 cup) to 2 cups of water. I added 1/4 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt and 2 tablespoons of butter after the unit switched to warm. I mixed the rice — using the included white plastic paddle — to distribute any remaining moisture equally throughout the rice. I put the cover back on, then unplugged the unit and allowed the rice to continue to steam for another 10 minutes. Butter and salt are optional.To increase the longevity of the unit, only use the provided plastic paddle or, and I think preferably, use silicone tools. ONLY hand wash the components with mild detergent and a soft sponge. This will extend the life of the nonstick insert. It’s small. You can handle it.I highly recommend this small but mighty rice cooker.

I bought this as a gift for my 14 year old, and she loves it. It is so ease to use, it’s self explanatory, just 3 steps and you don’t have to move the rice. The rice comes out perfectly cooked in 20 minutes. It is compact and cute.

Okay, listen. I did not expect to fall in love with a rice cooker. I bought the AROMA Mini mostly because it was cute, small, and the “Milk Tea” color whispered my name. But this little thing has earned its own sacred spot on my countertop like it pays rent. 💀First: perfect rice, every time. I’m talking fluffy, zero-drama, no babysitting. I throw in a cup of jasmine or sushi rice, add water, hit the button, and go live my life without a care in the world. It automatically clicks to Keep Warm when it’s done, which is basically the appliance version of someone tucking a blanket around your rice and saying, “Shh… I’ve got you.”But here’s the twist: this mini guy does way more than rice.I’ve made:• Creamy oatmeal that doesn’t glue itself to the pot• Cozy little soups that tasted like I actually tried• A scandalously easy mac and cheese• Quinoa that finally behaves itself• And yes… milk tea pearls (don’t judge me, it worked)And because it only makes 2 cups uncooked (4 cups cooked), I’m never drowning in leftovers or wasting ingredients. It’s perfect for small kitchens, dorms, work desks, or honestly anyone who wants delicious food without committing to a full-size appliance. If you live alone, seriously consider this pickIt’s light, portable, and ridiculously simple to clean. If you’ve ever cried scrubbing out a giant rice pot at 11pm… this is your redemption arc.Final verdict:If you want a rice cooker that’s adorable, dependable, and secretly incredibly useful, get this one. The sugar-sweet colors alone are worth it, but the convenience makes it a tiny powerhouse. I can’t believe something this cute is also this competent. Everything you would expect from a rice cooker- only personal sized.10/10. Would buy again. Would protect it with my life.Can of soda included for size reference ♡

I love my little rice cooker! For the longest time I refused to get one because I thought it would just be an extra appliance taking up space where I could just make it on the stove. But it really is helpful having a rice cooker, so I can focus on the rest of the meal I’m preparing.It is non stick as long as you don’t use abrasive scrubbing (you shouldn’t have to) and don’t ever put non stick stuff in the dishwasher!I love that this is light because I have traveled with it to family and friends when we are planning big gatherings.The only complaints I have which aren’t that big of a deal for me is the measuring cup isn’t a true cup but a little less. When it gets good and hot the steam and bubbling kind of makes a mess around the vent hole and edges of the lid, nothing that you can’t wash off. And I wish there was a ding or ring or some way of alerting you when it’s done. When the lever pops up, the light changes and it does make a noise when that happens, but if you aren’t listening for it, or in another room, it’s easy to miss. But typically when I’m cooking, I’m not far so I haven’t had any disasters. All in all, I love it and couldn’t imagine my kitchen without one. I bought one for my daughter when she got her new place.

Trop petite, je ne suis pas satisfait c’est cher et Petit

I bought this maybe 3 years ago now and it still works perfectly I love it

Amo esta arrocera, deja el arroz a su punto perfecto y no se tarda mucho tiempo, y lo mantiene caliente

Never would I have ever expected for this ricecooker to work so well! When it arrived and I saw how small it was I honestly felt a little doubtful but once I tried it on its actually very good! It does say 4 cups but that's once it's made your only really able to make 1.5 cups so 3 cups once cooked. If you put 2 cups of dried rice by the time it cooks and expands it won't cook fully since it will pretty much pack it to them brim. Good if its for 2 people maybe 3 max

No va acordé con la descripción es muy pequeña solo se puede hacer una taza y media y del medidor que viene en la olla ....calienta mucho y quema el arroz casi la mitad ...huele a cable quemado una decepción par el precio que pagué por ella ....quisiera una solución xq no la puedo usar más ...
