I bought this for one reason; so my buddy in the Army who is flying around in the desert can make himself and his crew a meal without them having to walk the damned mile from their quarters to the chow hall.

I researched microwavable rice cookers and this one fit the bill because of 1)price, 2)size (can fit in a very small microwave), and 3) capacity. It also provided good value because of the measuring cup and spoon provided.

I shipped this to Iraq (via USPS APO) along with some bags of Jasmine Rice, Pouches of Chicken breast meat, Cans of Coconut Milk and baby corn, an envelope of "Taste of Thai" peanut sauce mix, and my recipe for "Chicken and Baby Corn in peanut sauce over jasmine rice" (which as you might imagine involved mixing and heating everything but the rice, then dumping it over the rice.)

IT WAS A HUGE HIT, and it's not like these knuckleheads (I say that with all due fondness and respect) can cook. So bottom line, this thing would be... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars For one or two servings, this works great and fast!, January 1, 2009

This is the 2nd of this unit that I have purchased. I seem to be the only rice eater in this family and this unit fits my needs perfectly!

Very little wasted rice in the end (if any) and it's great and fast if you only need to cook one or two servings.

It does make a difference on what type of rice you cook in regards to the amount of water you use. In my case I use soley long grain rice and I almost always use the more expensive BASMATI rice which is much healtier for you.

You can cook the short grain (sticky) rice but it makes a mess on the outside of the unit (makes it sticky) from the steam that comes out of the unit while cooking. Other than that, it works pretty good.

Now for my secret on how to cook ONE SERVING: I use the scoop that comes with it. One scoop of uncooked rice (which is about 3/4 of a cup) wash thoroughly, add 1-1/4 scoop of water (about 1 cup). If you have a power level on your microwave, set it to 7 and cook it... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Progressive International Microwaveable Rice Cooker Set, February 24, 2009
This review is from: Progressive International Microwaveable 6-Cup (Cooked) Rice Cooker Set (Kitchen)
Love it, love it, love it.
I had this rice cooker for years (all white), and absolutely loved it. It was "accidentally" sold at a moving sale, so I went online to replace it when I settled into my new place. From the picture I wasn't sure if it was the same thing (different color), but thankfully it is! I love the convenience and the rice always comes out perfect. I also cook my quinoa in it and it comes out great.
