Rival RC101 10-Cup Rice Cooker with Steaming Basket


This review is from: Rival RC101 10-Cup Rice Cooker with Steaming BasketWe've used several brands of rice cookers, all claiming to be good. One caught on fire after two months, another lasted only a year before it simply stopped working all together.When we spotted the Rival cooker at a local store, we bought it based on the name. I've used Rival crockpots since my college days, and have never had a problem with them.This cooker does the job, and does it well. We've had ours for just over two years, and the non-stick bowl has only now started to show wear. We mainly cook brown rice, with only the occasional white rice meal.We like the larger capacity bowl. Though we could get along with a smaller bowl, this one allows us to add things in or various recipes, and the warming option keeps the meal nicely warmed.We plan to replace our current rice cooker with the exact same model.**My only issue with the 10-cup cooker has been the smaller bowl.

It's more of an issue with white rice than brown....This review is from: Rival RC101 10-Cup Rice Cooker with Steaming BasketI have been making rice with this cooker for 2 months now.

I was considering returning this cooker and getting another, as I checked the reviews, I found that many others had this same problem. I have decided to keep it; I worked out a little system of putting down 3 paper towels on the counter and when the cooking is done, I wrap up the mess and throw it in the garbage....This review is from: Rival RC101 10-Cup Rice Cooker with Steaming BasketSo far it is not a bad product. The only negative side is it takes more than 30 minutes to cook 10 cups rice. It is much longer than the one I used to use.And also be ware that its capacity is ten cups cooked rice, not ten cups uncooked rice. It makes a big different....
