Insignia™ - 20-Cup Rice Cooker and Steamer - Stainless Steel

So i needed a bigger rice cooker and stumbled upon this. I wasnt sure how big it really was because my smaller rice cooker is so deceiving. I can only make 2 cups of uncooked rice in that one. I needed a bigger one to be able to save time and feed our big family plus for special occasions like christmas eve where we hosted both of our families. I cooked 8 cups of uncooked rice and still had room for more rice. The rice came out so perfect its crazy (For white rice: 2 cups of uncooked rice to 2.5 cups water plus salt and a little oil to keep the rice loose) . I love that im able to steam veggies. I also love that it has settings for all different types of rice. We actually use mixed grain and were so shocked to see that as an option. Ive yet to try to the quinoa or brown rice options but plan on doing it soon and doubt ill have any issues. This thing is big so make sure you have cabinet space or counter room. Its easy to clean and works like a charm. My family members are now contemplating getting one haha its that good.

I almost forgot that I had this, Christmas was good this year. After unboxing it and washing everything, I used it for the first time and it made perfect rice. Zero learning curve. It was simple to use, 1 part rice, 2 parts water (spoonful of coconut cream/or butter and salt- optional), and push the button for the type of rice you’re cooking. Parboiled rice jasmine rice basmati rice, you want to press the white rice button, Brown rice pressed brown rice button wild rice press the wild rice button. You could steam food, vegetables, and it comes with a steamer tray, measuring cup, Plus utensils to scoop out your food. Don’t forget to rinse your rice before you cook it. BTW- This is a BIG rice cooker, make sure you have the counter space.

New to using a rice cooker. So far I have only used it to cook white rice. I started by testing it with 2 cups dry rice and worked my way up from there. I felt using the amount of water recommended made the rice a bit more mushy than I'd like. Just added a little less and it came out great! Also recommend adding the salt along with the water. It gives a 10 minute countdown to when it'll be ready (the total time varies with the type of rice/amount). I really like that it keeps it warm after it is done cooking and I do not have to worry about it burning. There are other features that I haven't used but glad they are available such as a delay timer so you can set it up to start cooking in the future so you come home to warm rice! I got it while it was on sale for under $30 with tax. The only CON I can really think of is that it's hard to see the markings to add the water. Perhaps it's only me because I don't keep a brightly lit kitchen so I have to use a flashlight to see the marks. I added two pictures, one without the light and one with. Hope this review helped you!

Really happy with this rice cooker, first try and the rice came out perfect and fast. If you are looking for a large rice cooker, this js the one. I would recommend this item.

Luv that making rice is no a set it and forget it process. This cooker is easy to clean and maintain. I primarily make jasmine rice so I don't use the pot markings and instead follow package directions but the timer still makes cooks it perfectly. It does take up a decent amount of space. Only suggestion is that the power cord could be longer.

gets the job done! great price, too (49.99). hopefully it holds up!

Love. It seals. It cooks the rice perfectly. Nice and fluffy.

So helpful it made cooking easier thank you for making our lives easier
