CUCKOO Twin Pressure Rice Cooker 10-Cup Uncooked / 20-Cup Cooked with Induction Heating Technology, 20 Menu Modes with Voice Guide, Large Rice Maker Multi-Cooker & Pressure Cooker (CRP-LHTR1009FW)

I'm a fan of Cuckoo products and own a multi cooker and 10-cup rice cooker that's the "papa bear" equivalent of this "baby bear." This twin pressure induction cooker is Cuckoo's top-of-the-line three-cup model and it's a gem.Like my other Cuckoo products, this is a high-quality appliance. The inner pot is very heavy and has a premium, and very attractive non-stick surface. What's nice is that the various types of rice can either be cooked under pressure or steamed, depending on how you like your rice. You can also cook it super-fast with the turbo setting, in addition to other settings for things like baby food and stored (i.e. frozen) rice.GABA is the setting for plain, pre-germinated, or cooker-germinated brown rice. It's necessary, if the latter is your choice, to choose the 3-hour setting; the other two settings are pretty much press-and-play. The cycle takes quite a while from start to finish--just shy of four hours. However, it's a much less fussy way of germinating rice than worrying about pre-soaking, and the nutritional values are pretty much the same either way. If you come home for lunch, you can start your GABA rice before you return to work and it'll be ready for dinner. Even if you opt not to use the four-hour cycle, your rice will stay warm until you return, courtesy of the "stay warm" setting that kicks in automatically when cooking is completed.I wish this unit had a "scorched" setting and, unfortunately, the cooked cereal settings are gone as well. It's tiny and, I suppose, can only accommodate so many functions but cooked cereals would've been great for a single person. I also wish its steam plate was like that of its "papa's," i.e. with a push button instead of having to pull it off (like my multi cooker's). It's also something of a pain to place its "packing," i.e. sealing ring, after you've cleaned it. I discovered that the best way is to place it completely as best you can before attempting to secure it. Make sure to align its tabs with the cover's holes.The instruction booklet is rather opaque--you can tell that whoever translated it from Korean wasn't completely comfortable with English. Supplemental literature that explains the various functions, along with some recipe suggestions, wouldn't have come amiss, especially at this cooker's price point. We can only hope that someone at Cuckoo actually reads these reviews.All in all, I'm extremely pleased with this little guy. I have a large house but a very small kitchen and this saves me from having to pull out the multi cooker if I'm just preparing rice (the 10-cup is only for guests or unless I'm really jonesing for scorched rice). I picked it up on sale, plus there was a $10 coupon. If you need a rice cooker that's less capacious than six cups, this is the one to get.

This is the best rice cooker that I have ever owned and I have owned many over my lifetime. I actually ended up purchasing one that showed that it was open box to save a few bucks, but when I received it, it was basically a brand new product. The capacity of the pot is great and we almost never need to make a full pot of rice unless we're entertaining, but it's nice to know that we have the capacity if we need it. We haven't really had the opportunity to use all the different functions that are available on this machine, but as far as its ability to make a lovely pot of regular steamed rice is superb. It's easy to maintain and clean the different components after a use and as long as it lasts the test of time, this will end up being a fantastic purchase.

Cuckoo is def one of the known Korean brand. I researched so much when I decided buy new rice cooker. I wanted to have rice cooker with 10+ cup size, with chic simple design, I narrowed it down to maybe 3-4 rice cooker. But this one had perfect size and simple design, and there is self cleaning feature which I loved the most!! Steaming capacity is great and you can do so much with this rice cooker not just making a rice! You can legit boil your eggs, and make soups, ..etc!!!Price wise, it is a bit expensive, but worth every penny!!!!

This is the best rice cooker I’ve used, after Panasonic, Tiger and Zojirushi. The pressure cook takes 28 minutes and non-pressure cook takes 33 mins, the fastest I ever used. The rice comes out very tasty and in very good texture, not soft, mushy kind. The voice alert is also very cute. Very good product and very happy for this purchase.

The rice cooker works well, and I really like the turbo mode for quick meals. However, it’s too small for bigger portions, so I’d recommend getting a larger size if you cook often. The menu is also a bit tricky to figure out at first. Overall, it’s good quality, but not the most user-friendly for its price.

This is hands down the best rice cooker I’ve ever used! I previously had another brand’s IH & pressure rice cooker that was also expensive, but I never felt it was significantly better than the less pricey ones. So I was hesitant to spend this much again, but it turned out that this one is definitely worth the price! I’ve found myself eating way more rice than before because it’s just that delicious.That said, the UI could use some improvement. The interface is overly complicated compared to other brands, and the buttons have very small text and require a firm press to work. While I can adapt, it’s not user-friendly, especially for elderly users like my mom. She initially wanted to return it because of these issues, but the quality of the rice won her over.If the UI were simpler and more intuitive, this would be perfect. Still, highly recommend it for anyone who prioritizes amazing rice quality!
