Review: Small and perfect rice cooker for me. - This rice cooker is super practical, it makes the rice wonderful, it lasts a long time, and the time it was damaged, I bought the same one again. I love how comfortable it is.
Review: Good for the price - I got the 10 cup uncooked version, and overall it’s a good rice cooker. It looks nice on the counter, the size is perfect for family meals, and it’s easy to clean. The non stick pot and the steam basket are super convenient. The rice comes out pretty good, fluffy and not sticky, and the “keep warm” feature works well without drying it out. The only thing is that it takes longer to cook than I expected. It still gets the job done, but I feel like I spend more time waiting compared to other rice cookers I’ve used. It’s a decent product and works as described, but I’m not sure I’d buy it again just because of how long it takes.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you cook noodles in it?**
A: Yes

**Q: What is the exact wattage?  Usually listed near the power cord.  Thx**
A: 250

**Q: Water amount**
A: I am not sure of the capacity. It is quite a lot. I use it for brown rice and quinoa. The ratio is 1 1/4 cups more water than rice (2 cups rice, 3 1/4 cups water; 5 cups rice, 6 1/4 cups water, etc.) and it comes out perfect every time. I believe for white rice it is 1/2 cup more water than rice, the brown rice requires more water. I tried to make from instructions using the lines in the cooker but that wasn't accurate so I use this ratio and it is perfect. Hope this helps.

**Q: What is the measurement of the cup that comes with the cooker?**
A: The above answer is NOT correct: (3/4 Cup or 135ml). That is the last gradient you see embossed in the "cup" but the cups "full" purpose is to be exactly at level (completely full, not heaping) witch equates to exactly 180ml (1 gō). This is done on purpose as it applies to the Japanese cuisine standard of measurement being 1 gō in volume, which is the standard for one serving of rice or sake. In US measurement it equates to approximately 3/4 cup.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little rice cooker
*by L***S on February 17, 2026*

Smaller than my older unit, but dud the job. Its so cute and takes up less of the counter footprint. The only negative is the markings on the inside of the rice bin is not as easy to see after you load up. All in all I like it and will be keeping
