What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this cooker for exceptional rice and risotto performance, with the built-in stirring arm delivering perfectly cooked results every time. Most appreciate its six versatile functions—rice, risotto, pasta, slow cook, sauté, and keep warm—which replace multiple appliances and save kitchen space. The non-stick coating and intuitive design make cleanup effortless and operation simple. However, some users report reliability issues, including heating failures and sensor malfunctions after initial use. Despite these concerns, most customers consider it an excellent all-in-one kitchen solution.

Coolest kitchen appliance I own!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had our rice cooker for years. It was a bulky thing but it made great rice. Our cooker died a few months ago so we were on the look out for something new. This very cool 6 in one rice cooker looked like it would be the perfect fit for us. It has 6 modes that include rice, risotto, pasta, slow cook, sauté, and a warm setting. I was interested to see how it did all these things with one machine. First,we tried the rice mode and it made fluffy ...

More cooks need more appliances

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this testing item based on the qualities that would help my cooking needs. My complaint would be the plastic measuring cup was not as sturdy or could be mistaken by some as disposable for lack of a handle. I primarily liked the idea of cooking rice and the straining insert. It is a Non stick so that means using appropriate cleaning and cooking utensils. If you happen to burn any food or get stuck on messes, make sure to treat it d...

Great Product!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to get to try out this product. I use my slow cooker multiple times a week. I was really hoping that this product would replace my slow cooker that I have now, but unfortunately I'm keeping my old one. This product only has one setting for the slow cook option and it cooks very, very slow. I had some food in there for almost 5 hours and when I checked on it, none of it was cooked yet, and the inside was very warm but not hot....

Just ok

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this in return for my honest review. This is an awesome appliance built all into one. It's a slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer ...etc. I love cooking rice in it as it has an automatic stir option so the rice doesn't stick to the bottom. I have not had a chance to use all of its options yet, but I am excited to. Would be perfect for a new couple who doesn't have a crock pot, steamer and all of there small appliances.

So many uses

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got to try out Black and Decker - 6-IN-1 Stirring Rice & Risotto Cooker and I love it. It makes great tasting risotto but it also does so much more. I love that it's not a one trick pony cause space is limited for me so I don't like to have too many different appliances. I have also made rice in it and it came out perfect. I can't wait to make other things like veggies and pasta in this too.

Convenient and Easy to Use

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really pleased with how well the Black and Decker 6 in 1 stirring rice and risotto cooker works. The cooker comes with 6 functions: rice cooker, risotto, pasta, slow cooker, saute and keep warm. It's very convenient for anyone who has little counter space or even would like their appliance to take up little counter space. The star of the show has to be the risotto function. You attach a little stirring arm into the nonstick pot and it will...

Life and Rice Saver!!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product to test and review. Even if I hadn't so, I would definitely have invested in not only the product itself but the brand. I am one of those people that detest cooking rice because of how precise you have to be to make sure you get the best quality possible. I was able to cook not only white rice, but arroz amarillo (yellow rice) and even pasta shells in this cooker with ease. The cooker's timer allowed me prepare the...

Best rice cooker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've never used a rice cooker before and let me tell you, my life is changed. I have a large family of 6. My 4 kids are still young and making dinner can be such a hassle sometimes. Being able to out the rice in and pay no attention to it is amazing and makes things just a little bit easier meaning this momma stresses less. It's so easy to use. You just dump and hit the right button and it'll sound when it's done. It stays on a warmer for 2 hou...

Great for small kitchens

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live in an apartment and do not have a lot of room for appliances. This 6 in 1 rice & risotto cooker is perfect for small spaces and does so much more than just cook rice and risotto. It also makes perfectly steamed vegetables, cooks pasta and can be used to heat up sauces. It also is huge and yields many servings of whatever you are cooking. It is easy to clean, works well and looks clean and chic on the counter.

Easy to clean

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this cooker for cooking pasta, rice and steaming vegetables. I really like how well it cooks everything and how easy it is to clean. I like how it cooks and beeps when the food is done. It keeps the food warm when it is done. It helps me because I sometimes get busy at home and forget to turn off my stove. I know that my food will not get burned. I'm glad I received this product. It is a great product for me.

Wonderful multifuctional cooker

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Black and Decker Stirring Rice & Risotto Cooker is wonderful. There are so many functions and uses for this. The ideas you can use this for is numerous. It is also super easy to clean up. The only thing I wish it had was bigger bowl and strainer. When I made noodles I did not really have enough room for the amount that I wanted to make .

Good slow cooker with excellent Risotto maker.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying all its features, I can easily say it does a pretty decent job. It has many different features. For all its features,- Slow cooker - it cooked for 8 hrs and then changed into warm setting to keep the food warm. The warm setting really helps in keeping the food warm. Risotto - Risotto came out perfect. I didn't have to stand and keep stirring it. Its cooking arm kept stirring it. Though I must say I had to keep adding liquid after r...

Great Cooker!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really great appliance! First off, I live in a small apartment, so I do not own many pots and pans. This cooker allows me to make rice and pasta, which gives me ability to not have to wait on pots when cooking two things at once. The pasta and rice I've made so far came out perfect every time!

Awesome product!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest review. So far I have only cooked rice it, but it was the best rice. Although I did find the rice measuring instructions a bit confusing. The cooker worked better than when I make rice on the stove. The basket part is removable and easy to clean. It even has a part you can attach and it stirs the food while it's cooking. I can't wait to steam some veggies in the cooker. I love this product ...

good cooker, confusing directions

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We cooked jasmine rice which came out fluffy and light by using a traditional one to two ratio, however the risotto came out overcooked/mushy because we were confused which set of directions to follow (one direction for the machine setting and a different set of directions described as a risotto recipie). Aside from the directions, the machine cooked fine and the paddle is a nice feature.
