Aroma 10-Cup Rice Cooker and Food Steamer Review

The Aroma model we purchased a few months ago is the 10-Cup Digital Rice Cooker and Food Steamer model ARC-960SB. We paid around $40 for it.

It's removable inner pot has measurements on it to help when filling it with water and is very easy to clean. It comes with a steamer basket, soup spoon, rice ladle and measuring cup.

First let me say I don't regret a dollar spent on this machine. It has so many great, easy to use features that it just seems too good to be true. The instruction manual goes above and beyond the product your using. It goes into the characteristics of the four most commonly used types of rice and because of it's recommendations I did try brown and wild rice for the first time. The recipes are easy to use and follow and the charts are very specific with different tips for the types of rice that you are using in it. There are vegetable chart and several very easy to follow recipes.

The steamer basket I wish was just a touch deeper but it gets the job done. Whether it's rice or shrimp in it they always cook up perfectly with a touch of a button.

My only caution is to make sure the steam vent has plenty of space. It did discolor my cabinets briefly until they dried out after the first use with it.
