Elite Gourmet ERC003B Electric Rice Cooker with Automatic Keep Warm Makes Soups, Stews, Grains, Hot ...

Our Experience

I was skeptical at first, expecting this budget-friendly rice cooker to be a one-trick pony. But after two weeks of daily use, I'm pleasantly surprised by its versatility. It's not just about perfect rice; I've made quinoa, oatmeal, and even a simple stew with ease. The 'keep warm' function is genuinely helpful, allowing me to set it and forget until dinner time.

However, the non-stick coating inside the cooking pot seems a tad flimsy. After a few uses, I noticed some minor scratches, so I've started using a bit less aggressive spatulas. Overall, though, for under $20, this Elite Gourmet model punches above its weight.
