CUCKOO CRP-PK1001S

by Cuckoo

PREMIUM QUALITY: Includes a stainless steel X-Wall inner pot with premium nonstick coating that is designed for optimal heat distribution, is scratch-resistant, built to last and easy to clean

Cook better rice in less time with the Cuckoo CRP-PK1001S. Whether you want to make rice, quinoa, or scorched rice, the CRP-PK1001S is an easy-to-use rice cooker that is perfect for beginners, thanks to its simple touch controls and user-friendly interface. By using a combination of pressure cooking and gentle steaming, the CRP-PK1001S produces rice that's fluffy and light, with plenty of flavor. It also has a few nice extra features, such as an automatic keep warm function (which is great for leftover rice and grains), and a voice guide that continually tells you which menu option you're in. The cooker's pressure release is gentle and quiet, and its 10-cup capacity is generous enough to cook for a family or serve a crowd. While it's not as sleek and modern-looking as some of the competitors, the CRP-PK1001S is well-built and feels sturdy enough to withstand daily use. However, the cooker's pressure release button is a bit small, so you'll have to twist it slightly to release pressure. And, although the CRP-PK1001S has an overheating alarm, it didn't beep until my rice was cooked, so there wasn't any warning about danger until the rice was cooked.

INDUCTION COOKING - Durable 7-Layer Inner Pan with Diamond Coating. The non-stick inner pan with copper exterior is designed for years of continual heat and use with no loss of efficiency

This Panasonic 5-cup rice cooker does an excellent job of cooking rice, whether it's brown rice, white rice, or other types of short grain rice.

The brown rice and porridge settings take longer to cook, but each unit comes with its own rice measuring cup, so it's easy to portion out the right amount of rice. The rice cooker's built-in taste catcher extracts the flavors of the rice, and the unit's 7-layer inner cooking pan ensures even cooking. The rice cooker also has several additional cooking features, including an umami-enhancing taste catcher, a power-save feature, an idle-time protection function, and an auto shut-off function.

CUCKOO CRP-RT0609FB

by Cuckoo

PREMIUM QUALITY: Includes a stainless steel inner pot with X-Wall nonstick diamond coating designed for optimal heat distribution, is built to last and easy to clean

The Cuckoo CRP-RT0609FB is the king of rice cookers and, in our experience, the best overall option. It produces consistently delicious, perfectly cooked rice, whether you're cooking rice on the stove or using pressure cooking. The digital display makes it easy to adjust the settings, and the machine's keep-warm function keeps your rice warm until you're ready to serve it. The CRP-RT0609FB is big enough for 6 cups (or up to 8 cups when using the included steamer basket) and cooks rice in about 15 minutes. It comes with two rice measuring cups, a rice scoop, a rice paddle, and a food steamer basket, which it uses to make steamed meals like dumplings and dumplings. The included rice paddle is too thick for stirring, so if you prefer a thinner paddle, you'll have to buy one separately. The CRP-RT0609FB is a bit more expensive than our other top picks, but we think it's well worth the investment.

CUCKOO CR-0675F

by Cuckoo

Ideal 6 Cup Capacity: The 6-cup (12 cups cooked) rice cooker provides the perfect serving amount for small gatherings or small to medium sized families

The Cuckoo CR-0675F is a durable, well-designed, easy-to-use, and fairly affordable rice cooker. Its 6-Cup capacity makes it suitable for most households, and the nonstick inner pot makes cleanup easy. The CR-0675F's selection of menu options is limited compared to other models we tested, but it's more than adequate for most households. The touch-control display isn't as intuitive as other units, and the menu lists are a little long, but the overall user experience is decent. The CR-0675F does have a 30-minute timer, but it's somewhat inconsistent in terms of accuracy, and the rice doesn't keep cooking past the timer's chosen end time. The CR-0675F also doesn't feature a built-in slow cooker. But overall, the CR-0675F is a reliable, easy-to-use, and relatively affordable rice cooker.

Zojirushi NP-GBC05XT Induction Heating System Rice Cooker and Warmer, 0.54 L, Stainless Dark Brown

Zojirushi NP-GBC05XT Induction Heating Rice System Cooker and Warmer

by Zojirushi

NOTE: Please ensure to measure rice in the cup that comes along with the product ONLY

The Zojirushi NP-GBC05XT is a well-designed, versatile rice cooker and warmer that will appeal to cooks interested in experimenting with different rice varieties. The NP-GBC05XT, which has the same design and buttons as the NP-BGC10XT, is a step up from the NP-BGC10XT, which is less expensive, but lacks a clear glass lid. The NP-GBC05XT has a clear lid, which makes it easy to see when the rice is finished cooking, and it has a carry handle, instead of a glass lid that is attached to the cooker. The NP-GBC05XT offers several menu settings, including brown, GABA brown, rinse-free and quick cooking. The brown setting produces rice that is softer than white rice, which some people prefer. The GABA brown setting produces rice with a slightly nutty flavor, which some people prefer. The rinse-free setting produces rice that does not require rinsing, which some people prefer. The quick cooking setting produces rice that is ready to eat in about 10 minutes. The NP-GBC05XT also has automatic keep warm settings, which automatically keep the rice at the desired temperature after cooking. The NP-GBC05XT uses induction heating, instead of electric coils, to cook rice. Induction technology heats the cooking pan directly, rather than through induction coils. The NP-GBC05XT has a 3-cup capacity, which is enough for about 4 cups of cooked rice or 2.5 cups of uncooked rice. The 700-watt NP-GBC05XT is powerful enough to cook rice quickly, and it comes with a rice spatula, a spatula holder and a rice measuring cup. The NP-GBC05XT has a 120 volt AC electrical rating, and it comes with a detachable power cord, a rice spatula, a spatula holder and a rice measuring cup. The NP-GBC05XT is easy to clean. The NP-GBC05XT comes with a detachable inner lid, which screws on to the top of the inner cooking pan. The NP-GBC05XT is lightweight, portable and compact.

PREMIUM QUALITY: Includes a stainless steel X-Wall inner pot with premium nonstick black coating that is designed for optimal heat distribution, is scratch-resistant, built to last and easy to clean

If you've been looking for a top-of-the-line rice cooker, the Cuckoo CRP-FA0610FR should be at the top of your list. Our pick for top cooker has features that set it apart, including its two-stage cooking function, which allows it to cook rice at different temperatures, and its Fuzzy Logic technology, which automatically adjusts its temperature and pressure based on the rice being cooked. While our pick for top cooker also has a few downsides, including its steep price tag and its inability to cook rice to perfect softness, both of which are issues we've had with other cookers, it's the best cooker we've tested. For our money, the CUCKOO CRP-FA0610FR is the best rice cooker money can buy.
