My last cooker I had for over 17 years. My only complaint is they removed the retractable cord. I loved the retractable cord it was a great space saving option. My button to heat finally but the dust. Vegetable steamer is wonderful and I often steam spinach with my riceI was surprised by how easy this appliance is to use! For years I bought Minute Rice, but always preferred the rice my Latina coworkers brought in. If you read the directions, this thing is pretty much idiot proof! The fact that i can use it is proof of that! LOLWe have used it a few times , our old one gave out , it cooks the rice great , I bought the smaller one this time , it works just like our old one , I Recommend this rice cooker .It tends to over cook the rice and brown the rice while it warms. Best to unplug when done.This really does what it says it will do. I only wish the steamer basket had handles to take it out of cook pot. Steams vegetables really good. Wonderful rice cooker.I bought my rice cooker back in April. It seemed to be working fine and I loved it. It also matched with all appliances I have in my kitchen.Today, all excited, I wash my rice, poured in the rice cooker, and the light are not turning on. I changed several outlets but it still no lights on. It's kaputt.I don't think, I should purchase a new one after just three months. I wish I could exchange for another or have my refund.better than all the rest..loved it. Used it as a travel cooker for work. Now i have an inferior unit which does not work nearly as well.This is my third one, only because the coating is scratched after many years, my fault. I LOVE this rice cooker. Perfect every time. Easy Peasy no matter which variety I use. Have given as gifts. You can't go wrong with this one. Also good for steaming, but I usually use the microwave. If I live long enough I will but again if needed.I was never actually able to use this device, so I cannot speak to its functioning. The device was delivered to me without the rice cooking bowl... It's also extremely large, too large and heavy for my liking, a knock against it's usability/functionality for me as I have limited kitchen cupboard and counter space and plan on being able to use a rice cooker and food steamer fairly often and easily.. This thing is a beast to carry back to the post office for return.This is my second Cuisinart Rice cooker. I have one that is over 15 years old , used min 4 times a week . The only reason I replaced it is the ex used steel spoons and the pot is scratched . Still works great but scratches bugged me so I gave it to my sister.This is by far the best unit out there. It is simple with no computers and works like clockwork....would give 10 stars if I couldRated 4 stars because of the price otherwise would rate 5. Bought this unit to replace my original which I loved. When original finally packed it in after many years of use I couldn't initially bring myself to spend the higher $$ (due to low stock) to buy. But after weeks without my rice cooker, I immediately purchased when I saw it listed at a lower price....so happy to have it back in my kitchen!es una arrocera muy simple, solo tiene un switch que cambia de cocinar a mantener caliente, de modo que cuando la conectas a la corriente de inmediato se pone en mantener caliente, el instructivo no especifica de manera clara como hacer diferentes tipos de arroz, por ejemplo con las medidas que trae el arroz salvaje queda muy bien, pero hasta ahí, siempre que haces arroz blanco el agua se desparrama por los lados, eso sí todo lo cocina muy rápido, después de leer muchas reseñas, descubrí que el arroz blanco queda mejor si en lugar de poner la tapa de cristal solo pones el accesorio de la vaporera, de ese modo deja de caerse el agua por los lados. La mía funciono por aproximadamente 1 año, la usaba 1-2 veces a la semana, hasta que se quemo el fusible térmico, que nos dimos cuenta porque la abrimos, y la verdad esta hecha de muy fea manera, como que no lo hacen con cuidado, le cambiamos el fusible y volvió a prender pero solo por una ocasión, y se volvió a quemar, pienso que se debe a que los circuitos internos son de muy baja calidad.Excelente aparato para hacer arroz en 15 minutos, agua, cebolla,ajo y un poco de consome se licua y se vierte con el arroz y en 15 minutos ya está.
