COSORI Rice Cooker, Slow Cooker & Steamer with Ceramic Coated Inner Pot and Fuzzy Logic, 50 Recipes,10 Cups, 5L Capacity, with 17 Functions, Warmer, Timer, Black

I've held off reviewing for a few weeks to get some experience with this rice cooker. I've only cooked batches of 1 or 2 cups of rice and only used Tilda white or brown basmati. I've had no problems at all. Every batch has cooked perfectly well and the stay warm also works great with no rice sticking to the base. I always rinse the white rice very well before cooking but don't bother with the brown. I've just used the standard measurements of water per cup of rice without any modification. We have had to modify how we cook but this actually makes things easier and less stressful in the kitchen. We just start the rice an hour or 2 before we need it and then serve it hot once the main food is ready. If it takes an hour for the brown or 40 mins for the white, then this no longer matters. When finished there is no issue with water dripping on the counter from the condensation catcher. Very little water is caught in this. The lid breaks down very easily and just needs a wipe and rinse off. The ceramic-coated cooking bowl also seems to be very well made. This just needs a wipe with some soapy water and cleans off very easily. The other utensils are well-made and designed, and are actually really useful for fluffing and serving the rice with no risk of damaging the bowl. We only use two cups of rice for 4 people so this cooker will cook a huge amount of rice for us. I've seen the problem reviews others have posted and can only say this hasn't been my experience. Maybe some of those were faulty or the design has since been changed? I just wish I hadn't been put off for so long by those reviews now. One of the best things I have bought for the kitchen.

I put off buying a rice cooker for years as so easy to do in a pan, I was wrong this is the best thing I’ve purchased in a long time. I’ve done brown, basmati and jasmine rice in it, perfect first and every time. I’ve done a vegetable rice dish several time's absolutely spot on. Slow cooker function has worked really well every time used. Lentil Dahl was super easy and was spot on. Searing was easy no complaints there. So the rice cooker is functional, easy to use and easy to clean. Would I buy it again, absolutely a no brainer yes I would.

I’ve been using this cooker once or twice a week since Oct 2023 and have been very impressed with both the results and the build quality. It cooks both long and short grain rice perfectly and is very easy to use. It is also great for making all in one rice dishes without the need to cook ingredients in another pan or pot. The bowl is dishwasher safe and is still in very good condition. My only niggle is that the non stick around the top of the pot is quite thin and has chipped where I tap a wooden spoon after stirring ingredients. This is my own fault but it’s a hard habit to break when you’ve been cooking as long as I have. The water measure marked on the inside surface of the pot is useful, but you can also work out how much water you need for part-cup amounts of rice using the guidance given in the manual. Cooks large or small portions of rice equally well and the measuring cup, steamer basket and rice paddle are nice additions. Would definitely recommend.

A great rice cooker but it does so much more. We've used it for soups, stews. slow cook dishes and vegetable and meat stocks. And it boils/steams eggs to perfection. Terrific all rounder. And its easy to clean. Superb little cooker.

So COSORI is a company based in California that also has its own base in the UK and other countries. They are becoming more well known in recent times for producing high quality air fryers. This item is along the same lines offering good quality at a more than fair price. There are plenty of similar products from other manufacturers that cost twice as much that are either on par or less good. Pros: It looks way better in person than it does in pictures. The touch screen is extremely high quality with perfect responsiveness and darkens to a single "start" light when in standby. The silicone spatula, ladle, and measuring cup are all must have items and the recipe book is a nice bonus. Cons: No pressure cook option so times are a little slower than they could be with something like a vastly more expensive Ninja. Timers are either pre-set or manual and once they are set they cannot be adjusted "on the fly". Keep warm function means there is no way to set this machine to auto off. Despite some very minor gripes this item does exactly what it says on the tin. I find the longest time (short grain) to work best with medium (like Thai jasmine) as well as short grain and the "Quick" option to work best for long grain rice. 35mins is hardly quick but it's good enough. Soups steamed veg and slow cooked dishes containing ground, cubed, or sliced meats all work well. I have not tried the saute option yet. The unit itself is about the size of an average single drawer air fryer. For what it costs it represents very good value but I wouldn't have minded paying a little extra to iron out one or two of the kinks in that cons list. This said, overall I am very happy and there is no danger of this being a rarely used "gadget". Between this, my air fryer, and microwave there is hardly any use for either stove or hob now.

I trust the Cosori brand and needed a rice cooker to replace our existing, one-button standalone cooker which aside from spilling over with starchy fluid, (even after thoroughly washing the rice), mostly kept a layer of crust on the bottom of the inner pan. The touch-sensitive control panel on the Cosori appears daunting at first but is simple to use. Two taps and my white, long-grain rice started to cook. The device took 43 minutes to cook the rice (2 cups) and I left it for a further 1 hour on auto-warm. This is a much longer period than my previous rice cooker, which took 10 minutes plus 10 minutes to steam dry. However, the results were nothing short of incredible. The Cosori produced completely separated, starch-free and non-clumping rice, cooked to restaurant quality perfection. Spooning out the rice left no residue in the pot and the cleaning took minutes. We haven’t tried any of the other functionalities, (steaming, sautéing, baking and others), but I am confident that the Cosori will perfectly cook anything you can chuck in it. Dare I say our best kitchen gadget yet.

Brilliant device 🤩🤩🤩 I walk on this planet 38 years and first time in my life I cook perfect rice 😂 worth every penny.

The brand is very good quality. I’ve a couple of other appliances. The steamer is really good, cooked a cauliflower the other day, very easy and steamed nicely. It does rice (brown and white) very well, but be aware it can take just short of an hour, so plan ahead. The keep warm is very good too. The appliance is fully automatic, with a very easy to use digital interface. The lid is designed to absorb the steam, so no water leaks and low emissions. It’s more than just a rice cooker, so has some other uses and so is quite versatile.
