AROMA® 8-Cup Digital Rice & Grain Cooker, Multi-Cooker, 8X Bonded Granite Coating, Silver, New

I'm glad that I decided on this rice cooker. I've cooked seasoned white rice (that I couldn't rinse) and old fashioned oatmeal and it worked just fine. Because I was cooking just enough rice for me, there wasn't any problem with starch build up at the steam hole. If I was cooking plain white or brown rice, I would rinse the rice first. I especially liked the old fashioned oatmeal because I could add my chopped apples after cooking, leave it on warm a few minutes and it doesn't overcook the apples. Cleaning the pot is a breeze because there is no rice or oatmeal stuck to the bottom of the pot. Cleaning the top is a little more involved but it's worth it. Be sure to read the instructions on how to clean the top. I also like that it gives you different cooking choices unlike other cookers that only have an on/off selection. The size is perfect because it doesn't take up a lot of space. I'm looking forward to trying out the steamer tray and other recipes for meats and vegetables.

I'm an Aroma Rice Cooker aficionado. I've been cooking with mine for almost 20 years now, and it has never let me down. What I like best about this one is that the inner pot has been upgraded to granite coating. That way it's safe and quiet when I cook at home.
