Aroma AWK-116SB Stainless-Steel 2-Liter Electric Water Kettle Review

Aroma AWK-116SB Stainless-Steel 2-Liter Electric Water Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Happy with the beautiful design and large size. Most electric kettles have smaller capacity. However, my previous Krups was faster. It takes a little too long to automatically shut-off from the time the water is boiling and I sometimes turn it off myself. It also takes longer than my old Krups to boil water (manufacturer says 1 minute per cup). On the other hand, the outside heats a lot less than other stainless steal kettles, and because of the design, you're less likely to get burned. The cord is long enough, but I don't worry about it because it's attached to the base, not to the kettle itself. Easy opening the lead (just press the top button), and the filter seems easy enough to replace. I would have given it 5 stars if it was heating and shutting off faster, but overall, I'm very happy with the product.

A useful kitchen or home-office companion, this electric kettle quickly brings up to 2 liters of water to a rolling boil. Simply press the push-button lid to fill at the sink, return the kettle to its 360-degree base, and flip on the power switch. Once the water inside has reached a full boil, the unit will shut off automatically for safety and peace of mind. Use boiled water from the kettle to make anything from hot tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to instant oatmeal, noodles, baby formula, and more. The cordless unit lifts off its power base and provides a generous stay-cool open handle and an elegantly curved drip-free spout for gracious serving. Other highlights include a water window with measuring marks, boil-dry protection, an easy-to-clean removable decalcification filter that keeps particles out of the water, and cord storage with a cord-length adjustment option to keep countertops looking tidy. The unit should be hand washed only and a user manual comes included. Beautifully housed in brushed stainless steel, the electric water kettle measures approximately 4-3/5 by 7-1/5 by 8-2/7 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Aroma AAP-325W 3-Liter Electric Pump Air Pot, White Review

Aroma AAP-325W 3-Liter Electric Pump Air Pot, White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Having grown up in a household with a hot water tap, I'm used to having near-boiling water available at all times - except on Shabbat, when, a rabbi told my mother, the tap could not be used (years later, a different rabbi, who had a different understanding of how the technology worked, told me it is permissible!). So once I was on my own, some sort of urn or electric pump pot was a must. I bought this one to replace an old one that died, and am pleasantly surprised by the new features, including the instant dispense button and switch (although they can't be used on Shabbat either, as they make a light go on, but you can still pump out water by pressing the original spot), and the concave front, which allows your cup or teapot to nestle up close. The price is right, the unit works, and my only concern is that I'll run out of water before Shabbat is over! In fact, I just bought another one as a Mother's Day gift and presented it today (now it can be told!).

Serve hot beverages to a crowd or keep hot water available for everyday use with this electric dispensing pot. It quickly boils up to 3 liters of hot water and works great for instant coffee, tea, hot chocolate, instant soup, oatmeal, and much more. The unit keeps the water hot for hours and offers three different dispensing options--press the "automatic dispenser" button, press down on the manual pressure pump, or push up on the dispensing switch located behind the spout for cup-activated water dispensing. For safety, the appliance provides a cool-touch exterior, locking lid, and detachable magnetic cord. Other highlights include an easy-to-read water-level window, "heat" and "warm" indicator lights, "unlock" and "reboil" functions, and a comfortable carrying handle. The electric hot-water dispensing pot measures 10-1/2 by 10-1/2 by 12-1/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Aroma ARC7171G 14- Cup Rice Cooker & Food Steamer Review

Aroma ARC7171G 14- Cup Rice Cooker and Food Steamer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Even though I felt the low price on this cooker was suspect, I thought I would give it a chance. I wasn't expecting it to last long or work well - boy was I wrong!! I have used it several times a week for going on three years now, and it's still working flawlessly - try to say that about, well, probably any other small applicance in your entire kitchen.
Everyone should have a rice-cooker - they're great time-savers, not to mention meal-savers. Even people who can't boil water can make perfect rice every time.
The reasons I love my Aroma cooker in particular are:
1) It makes much less mess than others I've used (rice cookers tend to blurble starchy water around the rim while cooking, but the heavy glass lid of the Aroma, and the vent hole, keep it from spattering the counter)
2) It shuts off automatically when it's done cooking, regardless of the type of rice used (I still have no idea how it "knows" there's brown rice that needs a longer cooking time in there, as opposed to jasmine rice which cooks faster - but it does!)
3) It keeps the rice warm for hours if necessary without burning on the bottom or drying out
4) The inner pot lifts out easily to clean.
If I ever have to replace this little workhorse, I'll definitely replace it with another Aroma. (I hope by then they make one in red!)

Don't waste your money. I bought this because it was small and I wanted a rice cooker that would make 3 cups and take up less storage space than the bigger ones.
It burns the rice every time no matter how much I adjust the water ratio. And brown rice - forget it, even more burned on the bottom. You have to watch it instead of being able to rely on it doing what it says it will do. It has yet to turn out 'perfect rice.'
If I could rate this a zero I would.

We make lots of rice-I mean A lot!
I have a large family and we enjoy braised meat dishes and lots of stir fried meals all with rice accompaniment.

Simply measure the rice, add water to the line, put lid on and press the cook button. 20 minutes later voila! Perfectly cooked rice.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had this model for just over a year and it spontaneously died. This is the second rice maker to die after a short time, so the failure is the reason for 2 stars. While it WAS working, it cooked rice just fine. Ours came with a veggie steamer which worked well, just remember to put a little less water for the rice if you make rice along side it as the veggies will add water to the rice.
Aside from the failure this was a good rice maker, if it hadn't failed I'd have rated it 4 stars, because sometimes the cooker would switch spontaneously to warm mode before finishing cooking the rice.

I have to agree with the other review. I was excited about my new rice pot. I have a large family and this makes lots of rice. So far we have only made the 4 cups and it boiled over twice. I don't know what kind of mess I would have if I attempted to make the 6 cups. Not recommended.

Aroma Housewares ASP-137 6-in-1 3-Quart Super Pot with Grill Plate Review

Average Reviews:

I use it primarily as a "Mongolian hot pot". It heats evenly and fast with light off to indicate the set temperature has reached. It then maintains at the temperature you set. The capacity of this pot is well suited for four to six people. I also did some grill on it. It works as well. At beginning, I was a little concerned about the "Nonstick cooking surface". Since it is very easy to clean, you do not need to apply too much force on the surface. After eight months use, "Nonstick cooking surface" holds well. I do not see any sigh of scratch or wore out.

Extremely versatile, this six-in-one appliance can be used as a skillet, steamer, slower cooker, stir fryer, Sukiyaki cooker, and a food warmer.

I use this as a water kettle only currently, and I really like it so far. I've looked for a long time for an electric kettle that allows the water not to contact any plastic, and this kettle has this exact feature -- the interior is completely metal although the lid is plastic, but you don't have to use the lid if you don't want to. I also like the way the heating element is completely sealed and that the kettle detaches from the base (the cordless feature). This kettle's construction appear to be very good quality, and it has a 1-year warranty. Its water kettle function works great -- it boils 1 liter of cold water in about 5 minutes. It being a noodle cooker/ soup warmer is a cool feature that I might use one day. This item also comes with a collander and a cute little metal pasta fork to aid you with cooking noodles. I'm very glad I found this kettle.

Cook up to 40 6-ounce cups of uncooked rice in about 40 minutes with this commercial rice cooker. Ideal for restaurants, catering, and more, it can provide 140 servings of 3-ounce portions.

Black and Decker RC436 16-Cup Rice Cooker Review

Black and Decker RC436 16-Cup Rice Cooker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought one of these because I was not happy with the Aroma plastic rice cooker that I was using.
The Aroma always burned the rice at the bottom, and the warm setting was way too hot and would continue to cook the food.
It also was made in such a way that the lid was not detachable, and therefore you couldn't clean it.
Take my word for it, when cooking rice or other things (rice cookers do a fantastic job with steel cut oatmeal BTW) food has a tendency to foam up during cooking and the steam and food particles rise up towards the vent on top.
If you have a rice cooker with a non-detachable lid, food particles get trapped up there and you can't get them out.
So when you cook a new batch of rice, the old particles can migrate down into your food. It's unsanitary.
FYI: A teaspoon of vegetable oil will help with foaming.
At least with this type of cooker, the lid is like a crockpot lid and can be put in the dishwasher.
It does a great job on rice, no more burning at the bottom. The warm setting is just that- warm.
When you plug it in, you must push down on the switch to go to the "cook" mode, otherwise it will just stay on warm. This is a great advantage AFAIC, for if you unplug it and plug it back in- it won't automatically go back to "cook" like my old rice cooker and many others on the market will.
I really love the detachable cord. It's very convienent.
It doesn't have a steaming basket or any other frills. It's a very basic rice cooker, but I am very satisfied with it. I have been using it for about 6 months now.
In the owners manual, it states that the lid and insert are *not* dishwasher safe- which I don't understand.
In my house, there is no such thing as "not dishwasher safe". I put everything- and I mean everything- in my dishwasher. I just don't use any extra hot water cycles or drying cycles and I have yet to ruin anything.
So you can put the parts of this rice cooker in there and not worry about it.
If you want a no frills rice cooker this little unit will do the job nicely.

The construction of this rice cooker is somewhat questionable. Be careful when using this item, sometimes it stays on warm instead of setting to cook. Great for white rice, not so much for brown rice. Would not leave this product unattended as rice does need to be stirred or you will end up with burned rice on the bottom of the metal pot.
I like it for easily cooking small amounts of white rice. Unfortunately, I can get better results using the microwave or my old steamer for something more delicate like sushi rice.
