Aroma Housewares ARC-730-1NG 10-Cup Electric Rice Cooker with Steam Tray Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this due to its larger steamer. Though the quality appears poor, I figured it is just a rice cooker. Bad idea. It broker after 3 weeks and when it worked, it was temperamental.

Black & Decker RC436 16-Cup Rice Cooker, White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My Salton rice cooker finally gave out after 8 years of use, and I replaced it with the Black & Decker Rice Cooker Plus. The good points are it is quite easy to use and can cook rice quite well. The disappointment to me is the cleanup.
Having used the Salton, I am accustomed to the starchy steam these types of cookers produce but I find this cooker to be messier than my Salton was. It "spits" all over its top, handles and even the surrounding coutertop are and floor (I have to line with paper towels to catch some of the sputter). I've tried rinsing the rice first and the performance was the same.
It is a big plus that the rice container itself is nonstick, but the lid takes some scrubbing, not just a light wash. I suppose this is a good value for the price I paid (under $30), but I think I may be upgrading soon to avoid that sticky mess.

Aroma Cool Touch Rice Cookers Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am very satisfied with this rice cooker. I use it to cook white or brown rice, the brown being my favorite. The brown rice takes a little longer to cook because you have to double the amount of water. For example, if you use one cup of white rice, you use one cup of water. With the brown rice, you use two cups of water for one cup of brown rice. Make sure to rinse the rice several times before placing it in the cooker. Rinse until the water is relatively clear. This step will keep the rice from being sticky after it cooks. Clean up was a breeze.

Aroma ARC-848SB 8-Cup Digital Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like this rice cooker, but I'm giving it a 1 because it browns white rice from the center of the pot and outward. I assume the pot has a bad thermostat. The rice was still edible and would've been fine for me...a single guy, but I have to consider guests. Amazingly increasing the water by 25% didn't prevent browning.
The other negatives are that the lid is not removable, and the delay timer can only be set in one hour increments (1 hour, 2 hour, 8 hour, etc). Because the lid is not removable it will never be as clean as I'd like. Also I know a little about programming. It seems like it would've been easy to program the timer to accept minute increments.
I'm returning it and asking for a replacement.
Writing a review? Support your opinion with fact. It helps.
UPDATE: My new rice cooker arrived. I've used it about 15 times. I'm having the same problem. However I don't think the rice is browning but instead it's a film that collects on the bottom that browns. I assume the film is starch. This happens even after I rinse the uncooked rice for 5 minutes plus. This has happened with two different brands and types of rice, both jasmine and white. I've even tried spraying the pot with a non-stick cooking spray.
Also now I find myself forgetting to clean the lid. I'd like to return this rice cooker, but I won't.

Aroma ARC-737G 7-Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My sister and I both own this rice cooker and it works great. My only suggestion is that it tends to make a mess of your countertop (steam creates a "coating" on countertop) but that can easily be resolved by putting a small dishtowel under the cooker during use. This cooker even cooks brown rice perfectly which I always found difficult to accomplish stovetop. I would purchase it again.

Aroma ARC-914SBB 4-Cup Rice Cooker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)my roommate had the ten-cup version of this. it was super fancy and had a brown rice button. and was just way too big. so when he moved out, i got this little cooker. it's marvelous. it does everything the larger version does (including making brown rice), but it also has a removable inside cover, which makes clean up easier, and it takes up less space! i never need to make more than four cups of rice at a time, so it's perfect for me.

Aroma ARC-998 8-Cup Digital Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased my Aroma rice cooker at Target as I love rice. I originally bid on a much more expensive one on ebay but was outbid even at $120. Anyhow, I was at Target, saw this one and thought...what the heck. I followed directions to make 4 cups of brown rice. I hit the brown rice button and that was it. One hour and 45 minutes later I ate what I consider to be the best brown rice I have ever had. It didn't stick together as you get at fine restaurants, and it was fluffy. I loved it! The best feature (I think) about this machine is that when your rice is cooked, it automatically switches over to keep warm setting. Therefore, you can never overcook it. If you undercook it it's only because you didn't allow it to cook for the time the instructions tell you to. I am now so glad that I purchased this one. I paid $35 for it versus the $120 I would have paid for the Zojirushi 3 cup rice cooker.

Aroma ARC-838TC 8-Cup Digital Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the fourth rice cooker I have owned and it is by far and away the best. The rice cooks right every time. The manual does give a guide of how much water to add for different types of rice but I have found that even when I screw up and do not use the right amount of water the rice has turned out pretty good.
I enjoy the fact that the device has a sealed top which really seems to help the rice be more consistent and also makes me feel better having this unit used with three small children in the house running around. The rice receptacle inside is a delightful non-stick surface that is more then easy to clean. The steam feature for other items works wonderful as well. I have left rice in the device for over two hours after cooking and it is still moist, tasty and not burnt. The one touch button cooking is a breeze and for me it takes about 30 minutes or so in most instances for the quantity I cook.
The only thing I learned I had to do is not place the device under anything when cooking. There is a starchy steam that is released during cooking that can coat wood and other surfaces. On wood this starch coating can be a pain to remove.
This is a great device to cook an entire meal or side in quick mindless ease. I can't think of a feature I would change on this unit. A great device that actually has increased the amount of rice and vegetables I and my family consume. Unless you need larger quantities of rice then this device is capable of I really can't see why anyone would need anything else. This is a great product at a great price. Wonderful!
