        Most likely this would be the ideal product for your intended usage. It has numerous uses for most any types of recipes.

        Thank you for your interest in this Black + Decker rice cooker. For preparing oatmeal or porridge Steel Cut Oats work best. Do not fill the bowl more than halfway with liquids, as the oatmeal will expand during the cooking process. For even heating, stir occasionally. When the oatmeal is done, the rice cooker will switch to warm. Please note that this is for well-done oatmeal. If you prefer a different consistency, monitor the cooking process to manually switch to warm for desired results. Choose recipes that will cook in one hour or less. If you need further assistance, I’d be happy to help! Please contact us at youropinionmatters@spectrumbrands.com and reference 41962250 so that we may better assist you.

          How to use rice cooker

          Answer This Question

          Whatever amount you want cooked you put have of that when dry. You fill the metal basket/bin to the desired fill line, depending on the amount of rice you’re looking to cook. If you want 3 cups you fill it to the 3 cup line.

          By|Aug 27, 2021

            Thank you for your interest in this Black + Decker rice cooker. For using this rice cooker pour the desired number of servings into the cooking pot with the provided rice measuring cup. Next, fill the cooking pot with water to the corresponding water level. After putting the cooking pot and lid on the unit, simply press the cooking switch on the front of the appliance. The rice cooker will automatically go into a warming mode once the rice has cooked through. If you need further assistance, I’d be happy to help!

                                By|Jan 2, 2019

                                  Thank you for your interest. To steam fresh broccoli, cut the broccoli into florets. Steam using 1 to 1 ½ cups of water, stock, or vegetable broth (cold or room temperature) for about 14 to 16 minutes.

                                    There is a steamer basket that is included with the cooker that you can steam any vegetables with. The instruction booklet outlines how much time, water etc.

                                        Being using it for several years with no issues. The 1 star reviews, based on reading them, appear to be related to simple user error. I’ve cooked different types of rice in it (namely Jasmine and Brown) at different amounts and had no issues. And it’s certainly not smoked at any point or turned off mid-cook. It does switch to warming the rice once it’s cooked, but that’s not “shutting off”.

                                              I purchased my Black+Decker 6-cup Rice Cooker over a month ago at The Home Depot, and, since, then, I have used it quite often; moreover, I have enjoyed this product's ability to cook more than rice because this rice cooker has the flexibility to be a steamer as well; and, with this understanding, this rice cooker comes with a food steamer, a rice paddle, and a measuring cup as well, which has only enhanced my cooking experience. Howbeit, I do dislike the one temperature setting as I think this feature could be altered by developing different temperature settings for different types of rice, and steamed foods to avoid the scorching of some quickly cooked foods as this rice cooker can cook more than rice. Here, I would recommend that other owners of this product to check on foods that cooks in less than an hour to check on your meal, and stir to avoid scorching. However, despite, my dislike of the temperature settings, I still love my Black+Decker 6-cup Rice Cooker as it has totally met all of my expectations.
