Amazon.com Review: Healthy cooking and sleek modern design meld in this rice cooker from Cuisinart. A smaller version of the eight-cup cooker, this one also features a handsome brushed stainless-steel exterior, a square shape with rounded corners, chrome-plated handles, and a glass lid with a stainless rim, chrome knob, and steam vent hole. Inside you'll find a high-quality stainless-steel steaming basket and a nonstick cooking bowl that produces 4 to 7 cups of rice. The cooker also steams vegetables and thin cuts of meat, creating a complete, fat-free meal with little effort. Besides various types of rice, the cooker cooks couscous, polenta, oatmeal, boiled eggs, shrimp, and much more. An included booklet presents gourmet recipes for such mouth-watering meals as Creamy Parmesan Risotto with Asparagus, and Teriyaki Steamed Chicken with Cranberry Wild Rice. Cuisinart gives this upscale rice cooker extra panache with a cord that pulls out and then retracts for storage. One lever is all that's required to flip the machine on. Two different colored LED lights illuminate, one during the cooking phase, and the other when the machine automatically switches to warm when cooking is done. Included with the machine are a textured plastic paddle for stirring and serving, and a plastic measuring cup calibrated specifically for rice. All the unit's removable parts are dishwasher-safe. The cooker measures 7-3/4 by 7-3/4 by 9 inches, and is covered by a three-year warranty. --Ann Bieri Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Cuisinart CRC-400The product looks nice but It should have a pressure released valve on the cap rather than a hole and the cap has not sealed well. Rating:  - overflowedwater spilled out every time, followed directions and measured carefully. Surprised that it wasn't better considering the brand. Rating: - what a messI really wanted to like this as it's small and a good brand but what a mess it makes! EVERYTHING boils over. If you reduce the measurements, it burns. It works well as a steamer for a small amount of food, but that's not why I bought it. Will look for a better model. Rating: - More of the same.Like many others, steaming rice in one of these contraptions is a waste of time. We thought perhaps we were missing a gasket, given the mess that was on our counter after each use. And reducing the water made the rice come out crunchy. So, we're chalking it up to a bad purchase and returning to our tried and true pyrex casserole dish in the microwave. That always worked just fine. Rating: - Looks Great, but Makes a Mess!Being a daily 'rice maker' I wanted a rice cooker I could keep on the counter top. While it looks sharp on the counter, this rice cooker boils over when cooking- even if only making one cup. I have discovered the problem is with the lid which allows boil over. I simply used my old rice cooker lid and problem solved! For aesthetics, I switched the top knob so that it matched. Also the existing lid is difficult to clean as it has a small lip underneath that can only be cleaned out with a toothpick... ... Read More |
