Smallest Rice Cooker I've Found
Pros: The rice cooks very well and has a much better texture then rice cooked in the "direct heat" cookers. The cooker is smaller then most others and allows you to cook a minimum of one cup of rice, which is just right for me! I was also worried that rice would stick to the stainless steel inside of the cooker, but it is just about as easy to clean as a non-stick cooker.
Cons: It spits water while it is cooking. Not sticky rice-water, but water from the outer part of the unit which is just plain-old water (any of the smaller rice cookers I have ever had have done this to some degree). I just sit it in the sink while cooking otherwise it leaves a small puddle on the counter ... really no big deal; but I docked the cooker a star for it.
Overall Review: Even with the "spitting water" problem this is a nice, small unit that does a GREAT job of cooking rice!
Works just fine! (update: After a month it died!)
Pros: I have 2 devices hooked up to it and it is smart enough to switch devices when it is supposed to; that's all I wanted from it.
Cons: I haven't found any cons at all.
Good Stuff
Pros: A friend recommended this to me for the heartburn I had all of the time. Drinking about 4 oz. every morning for a month fixed it. Now I drink it occasionally as a preventive. This also tastes better then any other brand I tried.
Cons: None.
Works!
Pros: Does what it's supposed to!
Cons: None that I can find.
Quiet!
Pros: Very, very quiet! I didn't think the computer turned on at first.
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: When I get rid of this computer, I'm keeping the power supply!
I love this thing!
Pros: Cooks pizzas and other things with no pre-heat; I just follow the package instructions for temp and time and throw the pizza in the unit cold. Lot's better then firing up the big oven for small stuff like pizza, garlic toast, or re-heating White Castles! Works fine for toast too. Still experimenting with other stuff.
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: It's a nice small oven that cooks fast and makes toast too. Perfect for me. If I ever decide to get a larger convection oven I might look for one with a rotisserie, but that's not too likely.
