Reading reviews…

Pros: Small enough for two people, cooks up to 3 cups, cooks perfect every time. Cons: The tiny hole in the lid makes steam spray out and gets the area wet. from Shopping.com I bought the Salton 3-cup rice cooker over the negative reviews of several people. However, with a little tweaking, it does what I want it to do perfectly! from Amazon.com It died again after only one use. I wish I would have read the reviews beforehand because it seems to be a common problem. I guess Salton just recycle their returns so they can afford to pay George Foreman the $90 million they owe him for endorsements. from Amazon.com The 3-cup RA3 Salton rice cooker was the first kitchen appliance I ever purchased. I bought it for my dorm room the summer before my freshman year of college in 1994. from Amazon.com Maybe you're like I was and you're saying to yourself, "These reviews speak of exceedingly poor quality; however I need only a simple rice cooker and it's $13 and I'm sure mine will work fine." I ordered it and mine worked for about a dozen sessions before it fried itself, like all these sensible people said it would. The woman I talked to at Salton was nice and hardly asked any questions and sent me another one, which has now successfully gotten through 2 cups of rice. I thank her for her kind implicit acknowledgement of the product's suckiness. from Amazon.com This rice cooker crapped out on us after just one use. When we returned it; the lady said that they've had a slew of returns for Salton rice cookers. I guess it's just hit or miss with these guys judging from the reviews. from Amazon.com I just got my Salton because a Crofton 3-cup cooker that I had gave out slightly after the 1-year warranty was over. I liked my Crofton (I mainly make my stone cut oatmeal cereal in it each morning) and figured all little rice cookers would be similar so I bought in a hurry without reading all the specs. from Amazon.com I have had a Salton rice cooker for 30 years (same machine). I am finally ready to buy a new one and I see no reason to change brands from Amazon.com I have bought two of these online. I used to have one that lasted several years..however both of the new ones have burnt out after only a couple uses..it obviously has a defect .that's why they are $9.99 RUN DON't BUY! Salton you should be ashamed for not pulling this off the market from Amazon.com This is my SECOND Salton Rice Cooker. The first one stopped working only after a couple of uses. from Amazon.com
