This compact 2-liter rice cooker makes up to 6 cups cooked (3 cups uncooked), which suits one to three people. It has a removable non-stick ceramic inner pot that is easy to clean, a 24-hour delay timer so dinner can be ready when you get home, and a 400W heating element for quick boiling. It also works for oatmeal, soup, cake and stew, not just rice.
Its small footprint (about 9.5 x 8.5 x 7.9 inches) fits well in dorm rooms, offices and tight kitchens, and it is easy to take along on camping trips. Because it cooks small batches, it is handy for portion control, such as making just half a bowl of rice. Check that the lid’s extended steam port stays clear while cooking so the pot runs as intended.
Heads-up: Set the delay timer only with fresh, refrigerated-safe ingredients, since the pot sits for hours before cooking starts.
