I absolutely love my Black and Decker - 3-Cup Rice Cooker!  It is easy to use and it makes perfect rice every time that I use it!  The size is just right and it holds plenty of rice for my family of 4.  I have used this rice cooker to make oatmeal and soups as well. This cooker is versatile and will get a lot of use in my household.   I have received my Black and Decker - 3-Cup Rice Cooker for free as a product sample from Spectrum Brands so that I may give an honest review of this product.  I will be buying a few and giving them as gifts soon.
