I never knew making rice could be so easy!! All I had to do was add some rice and fill the water to the line and.. Boom! 35 minutes later I had perfectly cooked rice. It didn't burn and it was cooked so evenly. Also, I LOVE that it allows you to delay the timer so you can pick when the rice is done. I'm so happy with this product. It definitely exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone that's looking for a quick and easy way to cook rice!!
