    Best $100 I have ever spent in my life

    I love my purple clay rice cooker! I have more freedom with my time. I go to work to come home to a nice slow-cooked soup. It makes the most delicious rice and I’m a picky eater. I’m very specific about my rice texture.I wrote on a previous review that the rice burns and sticks to the bottom. I now revise that it’s reasonably non-stick naturally.I’ve had this for a year now and absolutely love it! The material is more fragile than others, but the pros outweigh the cons. By common sense any type of clay or glass can break. These people who say it’s too fragile are used to having metal pots in t

    tasty and healthy way to cook rice

    Pros-Works really well, makes tasty rice similar to rice in clay pots from korean bbq restaurants-does not product too much steam compared to induction pressure rice cooker. i had a cuckoo induction rice cooker and that one steamed our entire kitchen, way too hot to use it during summer-not many complicated pieces. the old cuckoo induction pressure rice cooker had many components to clean and maintainCons-can't leave the warm function on for longer than 2 hours otherwise, rice will burn and stick , similar to clay pots in korean bbq restaurants. so need to turn off before this happens-pot has

    Enjoy teflon-free rice. But button on cooker broke on first use.

    I bought the new Aroma Purple Clay Pot Rice Cooker to replace an older teflon-coated rice cooker. I am avoiding teflon cooking surfaces because the health risks. The older cooker had been scratched up significantly. So I decided to try this. It did a fine job cooking white basmati rice on its maiden voyage. I think it might have taken longer to cook than the old model. I do like the clay pot. It is nice piece of pottery. And it's not any more difficult to clean than the teflon non-stick pot of the old rice cooker. But...the rice cooker sits inside an enclosed cooker. Very attractive. And there

    Wonderful cooker!

    I was in the market for a rice cooker, as I was tired of using a pot. I had read the other reviews for this and decided to try it out, especially since it was a safer ceramic. We love this thing! I haven't tired porridge or other things yet. My only caution is to unplug after its done and when you have taken the rice out, as it continues to heat it on the warm function and will start burning the rice that is left in there.

    for people who are looking for healthier version of rice cooker

    I was glad to find this with a clay inner pot and the lid especially.It wasn't my first time using an Aroma rice cooker but I was debating between Joydeem rice cookers with ceramic inner pots and Aroma with clay inner pot . Because there are a good amount of reviews on the Joydeem but Aroma’s rice cooker with clay inner pot. I have sent an email to the company but haven’t heard back, so I just got one for myself to try out.Here are some of my points.-Nice exterior design-Nice and good quality of clay inner pot ( still waiting for the material of the inner pot)-Nice and practical size of the in

    The flavors are RICH! It works well, easy to clean, great food

    I'm addicted. I ordered a total of four, 2 we're sent as gifts, and I want one more for myself. The flavors of my rice are deep and I love eating it when it is nice and hot. I love the clay pot rice, it adds the crunch on the bottom. I am a novice and westerner to clay pot cooking but I love fresh, hot rice with deep flavors the clay provides as it traps in aroma and taste. I look forward to cooking gumbo in this! Also if you open the device while it is cooking to perhaps stir or check on your meal, the clay cooker will continue to cook and not pause/shut off.I personally LOVE this feature.Thi
