kind of splatters

I bought this rice cooker especially because my old one was very messy. This one unfortunately also splatters a lot even when I prepare 1 or two portions only. It is still a good machine because of the non stick basin and it's compact. It also works well and makes rice just fine. I would recommend placing it in the sink while cooking so you only have to clean up the cooker, not the counter or wall too.

comparative rice cookers

In 2006 we obtained two rice cookers within a couple weeks of each other. The 4-c. Rice Cooker by Cuisinart works better than cooking rice in a pan of the stove top, but it pales in performance to the other rice cooker we obtained which is a ZOJIRUSHI.

This is not only great looking with the stainless steel retro look, but it is simple.

Sure there are the fancy rice cookers with timers, but doesn't setting the timer take time and thinking and organizing? I prefer simple, put the rice and water in and turn the know to cook! Simple, easy and less stuff to break.

This is the rice cooker for those who like it simple and easy.

Have never owned a Rice Cooker. Took some time and did limited research on lesser priced modles and decided on this model Cuisinart. Been a very happy camper with the choice I made. Easy to use; easy to clean up and makes very good rice. If you are looking for an inexpensive rice cooker then buy this one.

This is a great rice cooker. After having tried several others, I finally decided to keep this one. You really can't over or under cook your rice because you just turn the cooker on and it turns itself off when the rice is done.

I have several other Cuisinart stainless appliances and love the look, and the quality of them.
