I had this Black and Decker Rice cooker. It is very poorly designed. from Amazon.com Please dont buy this product if you plan on cooking for 2 or more people. Product description describes as 6 cup rice cooker, however each cup has a quantity of table spoon. This is very disappointing (cup size is much smaller than previous Black & Decker rice cooker I owned). I decided to buy this cooker because of brand quality and reliability but decided to return this product as it will not even feed 1 person even though it reads as 6 cup rice cooker. from Amazon.com 6 Cups is not a actual measurement, this is only a 3 Cup Cooker The box states its a 6 cup cooker, however the cooker is only a 3 cup cooker, its comes up a cup measurment which is not standard to the universal measurement of a "cup" its a measurement invented by Black and Decker. I called them to complain and the rep stated that this is a special measurement of a cup used by black and decker and the cup which they provide you in the box is supposed to be used to get the full 6 cups. from Amazon.com I am very impressed with this rice cooker. Many of the reviews for other brands were not very encouraging. I thought that Black and Decker has never let me down, so I gave it a shot. I measure exactly as directed on the instructions and the rice comes out perfect. from Amazon.com it cooks brown rice really well and fast. from Amazon.com i do this when i cook for me a lot so when its done i have a complete meal, fresh rice, meat and veggies. from Amazon.com produces very good brown rice (i have never tried the other). from Amazon.com 6 Cups is not a actual measurement, this is only a 3 Cup Cooker The box states its a 6 cup cooker, however the cooker is only a 3 cup cooker, its comes up a cup measurment which is not standard to the universal measurement of a "cup" its a measurement invented by Black and Decker. from Amazon.com A very nice rice cooker for cooking small quantities of rice. Perfect for serving two people. from Amazon.com After getting it I was able to easily cook sushi rice as well as accurately gauge how much rice to cook for four people without waste. I have yet to burn a batch and the item itself is idiot proof, flip the switch and go find something else to do. from Amazon.com
