It automatically switches over to keep-warm mode when it's done cooking, so you don't have to worry about being right there in the kitchen as the timer ends. ![]() We found excellent results testing the machine with sushi, jasmine, and brown rice-especially the latter, which came out fluffy and not sticky at all.

It's on the pricey side, but we think it offers the best balance of cost and features.Ĭapacity (Uncooked Rice): 10 cups | Power: 1,150 watts | Time to Cook White Rice: About 25 minutes | Dimensions: 14.2 x 11.6 x 10.2 inches | Weight: 16 poundsĬonsidering how expensive high-end rice cookers can get, this one is shockingly affordable for its performance and features. ![]() It's heavy and takes up a lot of space, but it's also a workhorse that's designed to stay on the counter and can hold up to long-term daily use.

It made a full batch of white rice in about 25 minutes, and there's a special turbo mode that cuts that time by almost half. But as a pressure cooker, the Cuckoo cuts down on cooking time for larger amounts. This is an enormous machine, with a capacity of 10 cups of dry rice-that's 20 cups of cooked rice. It's a fun and luxurious feature, and it's just one of several that make the Cuckoo worth its price tag. This one even has a computerized voice that talks you through everything, reminding you to lock the pressure-cooking lid and alerting you as your rice gets closer to finished. ![]() In general, rice cookers make the process of cooking rice very easy. ![]()
