Bear Mini Rice Cooker, 2-Cup Uncooked, Nonstick, Keep Warm, BPA Free, White | Portable 1.2L nonstick small rice cooker for travel, dorm, single serve. One-touch operation, removable pot, auto keep warm

I have been trying to cook rice for so long! I have been told that an Instant Pot is basically a rice cooker. Recently, I spoke with a well-known chef, and he advised that I should purchase a rice cooker on Amazon. I decided to try it, and after reading reviews on several different rice cookers, I bought the Bear Mini Rice Cooker. My only regret was not purchasing it sooner. The first thing I love about it is the size. It does not take up a lot of counter space, and it is perfect for cooking the perfect amount of rice for my family of four. That's right, I used one cup of rice (the cup is provided) and one cup of chicken broth, and it was enough for four adults. However, do not forget that it will cook up to two cups of rice! It was also so easy to wash. The non-stick bowl is easy to remove and easy to clean. It is also very easy to store. I can store it in a cabinet, and it even fits in one of my drawers. The second thing I love is how simple. There are no five buttons, no timers, just simply one button and two choices: warm and cook. Add your rice in the convenient cup provided, fill your bowl with water or broth up to the designated line, push the button, and you have rice in no time! Not only do you have rice, but you have perfectly tasty rice! I loved it so much that I purchased another one for my daughter. The price is amazing and much less than I paid for my Instant Pot, which is large and I never use.

Perfect size for one or two people. Works well, easy to clean, and it looks cool. I make all kinds of grains in this - multiple kinds of rice, quinoa, and millet and they all come out really well. Comes with a rice paddle but it's kind of flimsy. (It's totally worth it to buy a sturdier one at the same time you buy the rice cooker.) Even with the flimsy rice paddle this unit is a VERY solid buy!

I have used this so many times since I purchased it. It’s so easy to make perfect rice and I love that I can set it and forget it! Once the rice is done, it keeps it warm. Such a great little machine. Takes up very little space!

Nice, small.machine that is easy to cook, but the whole water to rice ratio is way off it comes out really mushy and I found myself using less and less water than recommended. I suggest opening the top and getting it firm up before eating. The silver top inside does get sticky so you need to clean thst immediately after use. But, simple easy thst even the grandkids can use it. If you leave it plugged in, it stays in warm mode, so make sure to unplug it

I love the looks of this rice cooker, perfect size for 2 people & yet only a 1 star. This cooker steam vent leaks water all over the counter. At first I thought I had filled too much even though I used the measuring cup & filled to the indicated water level in pot. What a mess! I tried a half recipe with the same venting issue, another mess. One more time and again results were the same. I don't want to clean up a mess. Maybe it's just my pot but too much clean up. The rice was cooked perfectly BTW and if it didn't make a mess I would love it for the money, it is the cutest appliance.

Perfect rice every time. Don't be afraid to be creative adding small veggies to the rice. It will come out perfect. To tell you how easy it is to operate my husband can make his own rice now.

Very good, much better than regular cooker with lids, no mess for this one!

Clearly a 1 cup product but advertised as 2 cup. Else works.

Il est très bien, très bon prix, facile à utiliser, parfait pour une personne, j'ai cuit du quinoa dedans, bon résultat. Petit bémol pour moi, pas d'arrêt automatique ou de décompte, alors ne pas oublier de se mettre une alarme! Dans l'ensemble je suis satisfaite, il ne prend pas de place sur le comptoir.

I use 1 cup of rice (using the measuring container that comes with the cooker) and then top up with r.o. filtered water to the --1-- mark line inside the inner pot. (1+1 single or 2+2 double) I use either Basmati or Jasmine Rice. They both come out great. No uneven cooking or bubbling issues with those. Approximately 25 minutes of cooking time. There was a slight issue of using Long Grain Instant Rice which caused some bubbling steam coming out of the steam vent. Most likely the recipe measurements of cooking instant rice needs to be adjusted. It is a cute cooker and is perfect for two people. You need to rinse the rice before cooking. If you leave the rice in the cooker after the switch "clicks" it goes into a warming mode and can dry out the side edges of the rice in the cooker. It is very easy to clean. If you follow directions properly, unlike some complainers, you should have no issues!

Easy to use, small.

This brand has a high quality in China . I’ve had an egg steamer for over 12 years it is still work, I trust this brand. The rice cooker works very well it is very cute

Support from Bear is terrible. My unit will not switch from cooked to warm. After waiting for support, I was asked to send a video and proof of purchase. I replied it was ridiculous to record a 25 min cooking time showing the problem of not switching to warm feature. I did send proof of purchase but have had no contact from Bear. The window for support from Amazon was closed. I have a faulty unit, and will not use in case there might be an electrical issue.
