Cuisinart CRC-400 4-Cup Rice Cooker
Amazon.com Review
Healthy cooking and sleek modern design meld in this rice cooker from Cuisinart. A smaller version of the eight-cup cooker, this one also features a handsome brushed stainless-steel exterior, a square shape with rounded corners, chrome-plated handles, and a glass lid with a stainless rim, chrome knob, and steam vent hole. Inside you’ll find a high-quality stainless-steel steaming basket and a nonstick cooking bowl that produces 4 to 7 cups of rice. The cooker also steams vegetables and thin cuts of meat, creating a complete, fat-free meal with little effort. Besides various types of rice, the cooker cooks couscous, polenta, oatmeal, boiled eggs, shrimp, and much more. An included booklet presents gourmet recipes for such mouth-watering meals as Creamy Parmesan Risotto with Asparagus, and Teriyaki Steamed Chicken with Cranberry Wild Rice. Cuisinart gives this upscale rice cooker extra panache with a cord that pulls out and then retracts for storage. One lever is all that’s required to flip the machine on. Two different colored LED lights illuminate, one during the cooking phase, and the other when the machine automatically switches to warm when cooking is done. Included with the machine are a textured plastic paddle for stirring and serving, and a plastic measuring cup calibrated specifically for rice. All the unit’s removable parts are dishwasher-safe. The cooker measures 7-3/4 by 7-3/4 by 9 inches, and is covered by a three-year warranty. –Ann Bieri

poorly executed, good idea
A messy device. The lid fits poorly on the pot, better on the steamer accessory. Boilover is a problem, even with a partial load.

Poor Design
This is one of the worst designed products I have ever used. It is impossible to make rice without it making a huge mess on the countertop.

Excellent Rice Every Time
I have never had a rice cooker before and I am totally impressed with this Cuisinart. It makes perfect rice (white or brown) every time I have used the product.

Great product!
It cooks rice perfectly every time – you just have to remember to unplug it, because it does not have an “off” switch.

Not just another gadget to clutter your counter!
I purchased this after seeing it at Christmas when a family member received one. This is an outstanding product. I find myself using it almost daily for something.

Big disappointment for Cuisinart!
Most Cuisinart products are really good. This one is really bad. First, there’s a little vent hole in the lid that’s supposed to let off steam but steam and liquid consistently…
