Review: Super-easy and absolutely perfect rice in the microwave! - I haven't used my cooker for pasta or veggies yet, but I used it for rice for the first time yesterday, and I was so blown away to have PERFECT rice out of the microwave! Yippee! No more scrubbing pots or the rice cooker! I followed the included directions exactly for my Jasmine Rice. Rinsed it, measured in the water and salt, put on the inner and outer lids, and cooked it for the recommended time at 70% power (as recommended for microwaves that are 1000 watts or greater). No stirring needed during the cooking time-- just set the microwave and leave it alone! So easy! When the recommended time was up, I didn't take off the lid right away; I just let the rice sit for a few minutes while I finished preparing my meal. The rice was absolutely perfect! I was really surprised, because I've tried multiple times to cook rice in the microwave using the directions on the bag of rice or recipes from the Internet, all with terrible, inedible results. I chose to prepare a large amount of rice and had a lot left over. I put the lid on and stored the rice in my fridge, right inside the cooker! So convenient! Everything in the set is dishwasher safe. Even though I haven't yet used this cooker for pasta or veggies, the great results with rice make it worth the price for me already! I eat a lot of rice because of special dietary needs, and I can tell this microwave rice cooker is going to become an indispensable kitchen tool for me. I highly recommend it! I am looking forward to cooking veggies and pasta in it, too. The included measuring cups and spoons and the pasta measure make this set a really good value. I also think it would make a terrific gift! My only wish is that they would make this set in some pretty colors, rather than grey, which seems kind of drab to me. A sunny yellow or trendy turquoise blue or classic red maybe? But that's a small complaint for a really reasonably-priced, immensely useful set! I'm definitely happy with my purchase! Review: Easy to use and good sized - I’m disabled so this is a game-changer for me. I’ve used it twice so far and things come out pretty okay. Needed more time for the rice though, but otherwise went very well. It’s easy to use in the microwave and it’s a good food storage bowl. Almost everything that comes with it fits in the bowl and I love the 1/3 measuring cup. It’s bigger than I expected but I was very happy with that. Very easy to clean, no nooks and crannies for stuff to get caught on in the bowl. This would make a really good gift for anyone who doesn’t have a stove, college students, and people with disabilities. Definitely recommend this to anyone who cooks or uses a microwave!! ## Features - Contains (1) PrepSolutions 17-Piece Microwaveable Rice and Pasta Cooker – with a 12-cup capacity and locking lid. - Perfect for All Types of Rice: The PrepSolutions Microwave Rice and Pasta Cooker is designed for easy, mess-free cooking and reheating of rice, making it a must-have for any kitchen. - Locking Lid for Spill-Free Cooking: Features an easy-to-use locking lid that seals tightly to prevent spills and messes, ensuring a clean and hassle-free cooking experience. - Versatile & Family-Sized: With a 12-cup capacity, this rice cooker makes up to 8 cups of rice, and includes a pasta draining insert, vegetable steaming insert, measuring cups, and spoons for multi-purpose use.

True?** A: It’s a good size, but yes you have to break spaghetti to make it fit. I think when I was shopping for this item they had a larger one available **Q: Can you cook soaked dry beans in it?** A: IF your keeping enough water in it. But I would not recomend it. for if it get dry or out of water it will burn and melt the pot. My grandchild did not put enough water in the rice cooker and by the time the microwave setting was over it burnt a hole in the bottom. I would recomend another method for beans as they take a long time to cook even in the Microwave. Flavor would not be the same either. **Q: Why are 3 deminsions given? what is the height and what is the diameter?** A: Height is 6.5 inches. Diameter is 9 inches. I'm not sure about the 3rd dimension... maybe it is the total width including the handles. **Q: How do you make spaghetti in this? There are no directions for pasta. I'm not interested in making rice so please don't give directions for rice.** A: Use stock or broth instead of water for added flavor. Margarine or butter may also be added after cooking. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COOKING PASTA 1. Remove steamer tray. 2. Add desired amount of dry pasta to cooker with basket. 3. Add approximately 6-8 cups of water for every 12 oz of dry pasta. Add enough water to completely cover the dry pasta. 4. Microwave for suggested time on pasta package. 5. Lift basket to drain. TIPS . For best results cook pasta as directed on the package. . For spaghetti, linguini and other noodles, break noodles to fit inside cooker. . It is not necessary to add oil to the water. . Do not fill cooker more than 3.4 full. Hope that helps with cooking your pasta. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super-easy and absolutely perfect rice in the microwave! *by T***A on November 29, 2019* I haven't used my cooker for pasta or veggies yet, but I used it for rice for the first time yesterday, and I was so blown away to have PERFECT rice out of the microwave!
