What Others Say
The Perfect Rice Cooker & More
This rice cooker is superb. It cooks from 1-5 cups of rice perfectly every time. Yes, it takes longer than your standard rice cooker but that seems to be due to the micro-processor. It adjusts cooking temperatures to make sure the cooker doesn't get too hot and glue the rice to the bottom of the cooker. I also like the way the cooker vents only steam and doesn't spit rice paste all over the counter like my old cooker.
The cooker is simple to use and has settings for all types of rice (including rice porridge) plus an auto-on timer. The cooker also has a keep warm feature but normally you don't need it. The extra heavy duty rice bowl keeps the rice hot for a considerable amount of time.
Perfect Rice Every Time
No matter how much water I put in, no matter what grade the rice is, the rice is always perfect. Now, when I add coconut milk, I can taste the coconut more with the Sanyo! I highly recommend this item!
Excellent rice cooker
I needed a new rice cooker after the teflon coating on the pan of my Zojirushi on-off started peeling off. Zoji had already replaced the pan once under warranty because of the same problem. Another replacement pan would have cost me $50 with S&H, just about as much as a replacement of the cooker. I was not happy with Zoji because of the short life of the pan coating and the high pan replacement cost. I did use their cooker mostly for steaming though, rather than rice cooking, so maybe the fact that the bottom of the pan was dry at the end of each steaming cycle lead to the premature failure of the Teflon coating.
Compared to the Zoji on-off, the pan that comes with this Sanyo model is much heavier and thicker and the titanium ... Read More
rice cooker
makes very nice brown rice. The instructions say to soak the brown rice for at least an hour before cooking. I never did that before, but that must have contributed to the good results.
While the timer works for rice, you need to keep your eye on vegetables so they don't overcook.
Love My New Rice Cooker!
I absolutely love this rice cooker. In terms of functionality and form, it is light years ahead of the Aroma Rice Cooker which I purchased at Target a few years ago for about $25. The Aroma worked adequately, though if I left it on for more than a half hour or so, the bottom of the rice got very crispy. This Sanyo ECJ-F50S rice cooker is fantastic. And I haven't even explored all of its' features yet. In terms of making rice, it is an ideal appliance. It is small and compact, so it doesn't take up a lot of room on a countertop. I choose to store mine in a rolling kitchen cabinet which has very easy access. I've made jasmine and brown rice in it - the rice comes out perfectly. I believe it has a sensor built into it - the sensor senses the amount ... Read More
