Just received this rice cooker. Did alot of research and settled on this one. I cooked 1 cup of brown rice in it, and it came out perfect. It does take a while for the rice to cook (about 1 hour for brown rice, white rice around 30-35 min.) but I was more looking for perfect rice and not speedy rice. Made oatmeal in it this morning (took 30 min.) and it was perfect.

It is large for one person, but you are able to make large amounts of rice and meals when you need it. I dont think it is much bigger than the 6 cup or 8 cup models. It seems to handle small amounts of rice (1 cup) very well. Plus I have the comfort knowing I can make more than enough rice to feed a army! The steaming basket, large enough for Veggies and Meats is also a plus because you can steam them while you cook your rice. Perfect for making Yoshinoya style chicken bowls (Smile).

No complaints so far. Sure beats the hassle of making rice on the stovetop along with the cleanup. This... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Works well so far, July 21, 2011
This review is from: Aroma ARC-996 12-Cup (Cooked) Digital Rice Cooker and Food Steamer, White (Kitchen)
I've cooked 1 brown and 2 white rice batches and all have come out very good. I've been following the rice package instructions for the amount of water instead of using the lines inside the cooker which are a bit hard to read without very good light. I even tried cooking only 1 scoop of rice, even thought they claim a minimum of 2, and it came out perfect. As with most rice cookers their measuring "cup" or scoop is actually 3/4 of a standard measuring cup.

I usually eat brown rice which takes long time to cook and needs supervision. I bought Aroma to save time and to have a perfect rice. The rice cooker works awesome, although I figured out that more water is needed for brown rice (I add 25% more water than is recommended). For rice medley which has some hard pieces I use this proportion: 2 cups of rice I fill with the water up to line 3; this is the cup that comes with the cooker, and the lines are inside the cooker to indicate how much water is needed). Rice comes delicious, not mushy.

I wish the rice cooker could be smaller, but it looks good and instructions are clear.
