I’ve made lasagna (so good), different roast (all delish), stews, soups, you name it. It’s easy to clean and is very sturdy. I store it in my pantry – it doesn’t take up much room. I’ve really branched out and improved my cooking repertoire with this device. I wish I had bought it years ago. My wife also loves to use it.” MikeThis would be a great stainless rice cooker if you plan to steam vegetables at the same time as you cook rice as it comes with a stainless steel steaming tray.

This is an important part to consider especially if you like your rice cooker to match your kitchen and life style. There are some designs that are very modern such as the Aroma ARC- 753SG and some that are older fashioned such as the Miracle ME81 which has been in the market for a long time.

Most times, all you have to do to get your stainless steel inner pot clean is a splash of water to its surface. Still, they are easy to wash by hand and in a dishwasher. After 2 years of steady use, our rice cooker with the stainless inner pot looks like it’s still brand new – except for a small dent when the pot (and all the rice) was dropped on the way to the table.
