I really hate to give low stars on products that I buy. I really wanted to love this microwave rice cooker, but I it wouldn’t fully cook my rice. I ended up with a mix of cooked and halfway cooked rice. I followed the directions. I set the water to the right amount and set the microwave timer correctly. It might have been my microwave because I have a 800 watt microwave and the times in the directions seem to be made for 1000 watt microwaves. At any rate, for me, I kept it and will use it when I replace my microwave for a higher watt and I hope the rice will cook better. For now, I will use my stovetop pressure cooker to cook my rice.

This my second microwave rice cooker. They are very quick and easy to use. I never cook rice in any other way now. I had my old one for over 10 years. This Progressive model is smaller and has one less lid component then my old one. The second time I used this new one I tried 2 cups of dried rice. I microwaved it for 22 minutes. The rice was still cooked just fine. Some of it boiled over, causing a bit of a clean up. Maybe I will try 20 minutes next time. Cooking 1 cup is no problem. I think 2 cups is the max on this model. I will continue to use it. My star rating is a 3, which means good, with 4 being very good and 5 being excellent. Lost points for size and skimping on the lid setup.

This is everything the description said. I love having perfect rice every time. It’s also nice not turning on the stove in the heat of the summer just to make rice. I also love being able to put this in the dishwasher.

I love rice! I hate cooking it though – too little room for a rice cooker, pans with crusted rice take too long to clean, and instant rice is, let’s face it, sub par at best.

The good:

*super easy clean up, no joke. I don’t know how well it weathers a dishwasher, as i do not own one, but it is a breeze to clean by hand. It is non-stick, even when you make sticky rice

* no burned on, crusted on, wasted rice

* convenient, you can mix the rice and water, then pop the whole contraption into the microwave and move on with little worries and make the rest of your meal

* easy to store, non intrusive, no cords, and doesn’t get too too hot

* can make up to 6 cups of rice and still make an individual portion! yay!

The bad:

* you need to play with it at first. the water vs rice measurements don’t seem to work out exactly right (but the results are still edible, so it’s really personal preference here)

* making rice is so easy and hassle free you may have to buy more rice more often ;)

In short, only avoid this product if you have a) no interest in rice; or b) no microwave

Easy to use and works well. Lighter to lift from microwave helps me as I have MS.
