Aroma ARC-733G 3-Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Reviews
| 66 of 69 people found the following review helpful  Nice rice cooker, This review is from: Aroma ARC-733G 3-Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer (Kitchen) I wanted a cheap rice cooker and this fits the bill. I considered other brands but they either had poor reviews or a teflon type of coated interior. This rice cooker's pan is aluminum and while a bit of rice sticks after cooking, it is easily washed after soaking it for a time.From http://www.thecancerblog.com/2006/02/16/fdas-teflon-carcinogen-warning-getting-stronger/ "In a continuing review of Teflon's safety, The Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, Science Advisory Board voted unanimously on Wednesday, February 15th, to recommend that PFOA be upgraded from the current "suggestive carcinogen" to a "likely carcinogen." Why risk it? This Aroma is more than adequate unless you need a bigger amount of rice than three cups. I only cook one cup at a time and it works great. While any rice will work, I also recommend using jasmine rice for better taste. 87 of 93 people found the following review helpful Great value for a small rice cooker, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Aroma ARC-733G 3-Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer (Kitchen)  It's a cheap, nice little rice cooker that just works. Here are some tips from the instruction manual: 1. This appliance is NOT dishwasher safe. Inner pot and accessories are NOT dishwasher safe. (i.e. that stuck-on rice that happens to every rice cooker at some point? yeah, don't try using your dishwasher to get it out.) 2. Always make sure the outside of the inner pot is dry prior to use. If inner cooking pot is returned when wet, it may damage this product, causing it to malfunction. Also, interestingly, it's pretty much a disposable appliance unfortunately. That is, for the fifteen bucks you buy it for here on Amazon (esp. if you have Prime shipping for free), if it breaks, you can return it to the manufacturer, but Aroma Housewares Company [...] for shipping and handling charges. I also find one other instruction particularly interesting: "Do not use the appliance for other than its intended use." Take that, Jack Bauer. 32 of 34 people found the following review helpful  Great little appliance...but a regular steamer makes better rice., By Rachael (Texas) - See all my reviews This review is from: Aroma ARC-733G 3-Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer (Kitchen) I like the size and convenience of this little machine. It's also really easy to whip up a small batch of rice in a short time. However, try as I might, I simply cannot figure out a way to keep the rice from scorching on the bottom. I've tried spraying the pot with non-stick spray before using it. I've also tried using more water than is called for. However, there is always at least a little bit of rice stuck to the bottom when the cooking is done. I've just decided that my regular steamer/rice cooker that I have been using for years is a better rice maker, even though it takes longer to set up and clean than this one. |
