I have cooked rice in a saucepan on the stove for over 40 years. Finally got tired of watching that it didn’t boil over before I could turn the heat down; then remember to check it after 20 minutes to make sure it was cooked and ready to eat. Took awhile but I finally wised up and decided to buy a rice cooker. Glad I found B&D 3-cup cooker. Worked perfectly the first time (noticed the burn smell the first time as warned on reviews). Followed directions for amount of raw rice and water. All I had to do was listen for the ‘click’ when cooking was over. Rice came out perfectly. Can’t believe I waited so long to buy a rice cooker. Size is just right for small family. Takes up very little space on counter.

I received this product a while ago and use it to make rice for my golembkis. This rice cooker makes very good rice in a perfect amount of time. It is durable my daughter dropped it on accident and not a scratch of broken piece. I absolutely love this product.

I absolutely love my Black and Decker – 3-Cup Rice Cooker! It is easy to use and it makes perfect rice every time that I use it! The size is just right and it holds plenty of rice for my family of 4. I have used this rice cooker to make oatmeal and soups as well. This cooker is versatile and will get a lot of use in my household. I have received my Black and Decker – 3-Cup Rice Cooker for free as a product sample from Spectrum Brands so that I may give an honest review of this product. I will be buying a few and giving them as gifts soon.

I love that cooking rice only takes 20-30 minutes, and then it has an automatic warm function that automatically kicks on to keep the rice warm and fluffy. It’s so easy and fast to cleanup it is dishwasher-safe, but with the nonstick pot and tempered glass lid it only takes a few minutes to clean.

The rice cooker is very small, but perfect for one or two people. It seems like a wonderful gift idea for a college bound student. You can cook a variety of foods like soups and stews, not just rice with this cooker. It is so simple to use. There are very easy instructions. Just use the measuring tools provided. It is tiny so can be stored almost anywhere. It also comes with a little scoop for extra convenience. To make a cup of rice was so easy. Measure rice and water according to directions for desired amount, and put in cooker. Turn on. Walk away! Rice will be done in about 20 minutes. This is very quick. This rice cooker is perfect for anyone looking for just the right amount, in a very short time.

I received this product about a month or so ago, and I have to admit, I didn’t fully read the description and thought it was much bigger than it was. But, it does say 3 cup, and that is what it is. It is a smaller one, so if you have a large family, I would opt for the bigger one. With that being said, I had to wait for the opportune time to use it. We have a “find it, fix it” night which is free range of anything you want (within reason) for dinner, and I used that opportunity to test this rice cooker out. I threw my rice and water in, set it, and enjoyed the fast and effortless cooking of my rice. I heated up chicken, and as soon as it was done, so was my rice, cooked to perfection! It was fast, simple, and made the PERFECT rice! This is such a great product!

easy to use, rice comes out just like I hoped it would. its a little hard to see the water measurement markers on the dark Teflon coated liner but it doesn’t seem to make much difference as the rice cooks perfectly each time.

I was amazed that this was so simple to use, the directions are easy to read and understand. I loved the size of the Black and Decker – 3-cup Rice Cooker. Its a perfect size for about 2-3 people. When I made my rice in it, the rise did not stick and was not clumpy. I loved that about this product. The rice was cooked to perfection and tasted awesome. This was a perfect addation to my other appliaces. Easy is what I wanted and this is exactly what I got. I am very happy with the Black and Decker – 3-cup Rice cooker and will never make my rice on the stove agian. I love it!

So happy we have this cooker. I have never been able to cook rice the right way and this cooker does the trick! It comes out nice and fluff and tender every time. So easy to use. Rice cooks in under 30 minutes. Set it and forget it! You will not be disappointed with this cooker!

I love this appliance! Perfect rice each time. I even cooked a box of Goya yellow rice and beans along with Salmon steaks and plantains (my cooker came with a steamer tray). To avoid the rice browning on the bottom I add a teaspoon of Olive oil to the water. Steaming ripe plantains is great and the juices from the steamer tray falling in and mixing with the rice tastes so good.

I love this to cook some rice. All I do is add rice water salt and a touch of olive oil. It cooks itself no need to fuss.

I got this as a sample product to try. I own a very large rice cooker so this one is very handy in my small kitchen and when I just want to cook a couple of cups of rice.Always comes out perfect and sticky, kust the way I like my rice. I also use it to steam small breads and other items.

This is a very good cooker for our situation where we are only two people in our household (empty nesters), only have rice once or twice a week and we have hardly any waste. It also does an excellent job at cooking the rice.

Wow so impressed with this rice cooker, its attractive and easy to use, my son was excited to try it out, he had just seen a video of making rice cooker pancakes lol… so while I was at work he made a batch, sorry he didn’t take pictures, but he said it made thick moist and delicious rice cooker pancakes.. popped right out without sticking .. and clean up was a breeze just wiped out with a damp cloth.. Next we will actually cook some rice

When I first took the Black + Decker rice cooker out of the box, my initial reaction was “what a cute, little rice cooker.” Maybe it’s a tad bit too small? I was making brown rice and followed the directions from the manual using 1 cup brown rice measure and 1.5 cups of water – the maximum amount allowed. I pressed the lever down to start cooking the rice, easy peasy. During the cooking process, water started to spurt out of the steam venting hole on the lid. Water was getting on the cooking base, on the counter and threatened to spill out of the cooking bowl (thankfully it didn’t boil over). The rice came out perfectly though. It was fluffy and the right amount of stickiness. Cleanup was easy as everything fit nicely into the top of the dishwasher. A quick wipe down of the outer machine was all that was needed from the spurting water. On my second try with the machine, I used a little less water with the brown rice. Instead of filling to the 1.5 line, I did roughly 1.25. Water still spurted out of the steam vent, albeit not as much as the first time. The rice cooked pretty much the same as my initial use. Maybe it’ll be a little trial and error to get the perfect amount of water to cook with the rice. But if water continues to spurt out of the steam vent, at least the clean up is not that difficult. All in all, it’s a decent cooker.

the first time I used, it boiled over on to the counter. that was half of a cup. Second time I used it, had a full cup, still it boiled over. third time I noticed that it boils too much and that’s what think is wrong with it. I would not recommend it
