Customer Reviews for Hamilton Beach 14-Cup Stainless Steel Rice/Hot Cereal Cooker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hamilton Beach Digital Simplicity Rice Cooker and Steamer rocks! I love this thing! It is so easy to use. This is my first rice cooker and I couldn't be happier with it. It comes with everything you need, except the rice of course. This rice cooker has it's own measuring cup. If I use 3 of these cups or scoops of rice, then I fill up with water to the 3 line in the cooker bowl. If I need to rinse the rice first, a rise bowl(doubles as a steamer basket) is also included. Plug this thing in, turn it on, select the cooking method and that's it! I was a little skeptical at first but soon I had fluffy perfectly cook rice! When the cooking cycle is done it will automatically switch over to "warm". The delay start option is super convenient. I can set it up to 15 hours in advance. It's great to be able to come home from work for lunch or the end of the day and have the rice hot and ready for me. I can also cook breakfast grains in it. So I can set it at night and when I get up steal cut oats or grits are ready. The steamer basket lets me steam veggies and other food in the cooker. I make potsticker dumplings in it several times a week now. Bean, chili, soups, boxed rice or noodle mixes, cous cous, etc. can all be made in this thing. It works great for me and it's easy to clean. The nonstick aluminum bowl comes out and can go in the dishwasher along with the scoop, rice paddle and lid insert.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my Hamilton Beach Simplicity Rice Cooker a few weeks ago. I was extremely excited to try this bad boy out. Rice is a staple for most of our meals so I knew I’d be getting a lot of use out of it. I’ve already made a few batches of both white and brown rice and they have been cooked perfectly every single time! I love that you can cook oats, barley, and grains in this pot. It makes things so much easier! You can also use it to steam your veggies while your rice is cooking! It’s literally a time saver!! I love my Rice Cooker and I can not wait to get creative and make so many more yummy meals for my family!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this Simplicity Rice Cooker and has excellent features! The delayed time feature as so convenient as to make it seem like I was in the kitchen all day! The multi-cook feature as equally a plus feature. Way to go Hamilton Beach!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a working mother of two, this appliance is a dream come true! I love how easy it is to clean and assemble. I also love that is has preprogrammed settings/modes that allow you to cook delicious food while multitasking. I cook rice, steam veggies, and make oatmeal/grits for breakfast. I can't wait to make more delicious and healthy food in my cooker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rice cooker has so many different options! You can cook rice, hot cereal, and even sauté stuff! I love that it also comes with a rice basket to wash the rice in! I love the digital front, makes it very modern! It is also just the right size! 5 stars!

Good but is not that you put the rice and live it to cook. You have to check and stir so often or you ended with burn food.

Makes good rice and is easy to clean, but is slower than other rice cookers.

good size and performance

Works great, better than I had hoped for. I really love the basket to steam veggies while the rice is cooking.

Currently i am using it to cook rice and I’m happy with the results.
