Small Rice Cooker, 4 Cup 2L Multifunctional with Steamer, White

I’m really enjoying the rice cooker, makes rice the way I like it ! Super easy to use, and compact ! Takes about 35 minutes, which is not bad since you don’t have to pay attention to it (I forgot about it and it didn’t burn!) keeps it warm until you turn it off. Really good for the price.

I have wanted a rice cooker for forever and because I mess rice up every time we don’t eat very much rice and especially that we are switching all white food to wholemeal I thought if I can’t cook white rice I will only really mess up brown rice, so a rice cooker it was.😊 I searched for ages comparing products and prices and settled with this Bear 6 and I have not been disappointed! What a dream finally eating well cooked tasty rice. I made basmati using the white rice setting it came out perfect. Since then, I have made brown rice several times and not been let down at all. The rice is always cooked evenly and fluffs with a fork with ease. This is a neat looking rice cooker, quite compact as I found a space to store in the cupboard. The instructions are simple, easy to understand (although there is very little instructions needed to use this cooker). It comes with a measuring cup for rice, wide plastic spoon/spatula and the markings in the pot are super clear making it easy to then add the water to the line / depending on rice amount measured. What I have found though is that it takes quite some time to warm up & cook the rice, so I now get the rice in the cooker ahead of making the rest of the dinner. The rice has never stuck to the non-stick pot, and it is really easy to clean. When the rice is cooked it beeps and then turns automatically to Keep Warm – usually by this time I am ready to dish up but if I’m not it’s not a problem bc my rice is still kept warm. We are a family of 3 and this size is more than big enough for us (I have only ever used 2 cups and there is always plenty leftover) but it does cook for more than 2 cups. Also includes steamer basket – this is really small though and I haven’t yet used it and can also be used for porridge, soup etc. Highly recommend - so pleased I settled with this Bear 6 - I Love it..

This rice cooker is brilliant. I use it for all its functions but broaden its capabilities because of how hot it gets. All rice settings work so well and the soup and porridge functions make it a small slow cooker. I’ve also fried an egg in it! The steam function makes amazing dumplings and veggies and I’ve used it to make ramen where I’ve added dumplings into it. Well worth the money and especially good for van life!

Great machine, feels well built and it looks ok, woukd prefer more colours though. Cooks rice quick but you need some testing and adjustment to your rice brand. Instructions are not good but once you figure out how you like you rice you'll be fine, for me 1 cup white rice with 1.5 water keep it moist and sticky. For brown rice is use 1-1. Only major issue is the 'alarm' sound is just terribly quiet and since this remains on to keep you food warm it can lead to boilding over which leaks liquid out and causes a mess. Im forgetful so its happened more times than not. It staying on to keep food warm is nice but also a safety concern since is boils and leaks so easy. This is only an issue for forgetful people or those who leave the room. Just set an alexa timer to remind you as th machine is almoat silent!

Love it, I only wish I'd bought a rice cooker sooner. It takes so little effort to use this and the rice is perfect every time. The leftovers make great fried rice and I've also tried the soup option and that turned out great too.

I was using a saucepan and the 2:1 ratio (2 parts water, 1 part rice) but the cooking was always iffy, trying not to burn the rice or the pan, sometimes the rice came out too watery, or nicely cooked but the pan was difficult to clean afterwards. Call me lazy yeah. So I decided to invest on a rice cooker, I didn't want anything that could feed an army regiment, just a small rice cooker. So based on the fact that most reviews on Amazon are being pay offs, I was very sceptical on choosing my first rice cooker. I was between this and another German one, finally chose this because of the lower price compared to the German model. And I'm glad I did cause there nothing not to love about the Bear! Rice? Perfection! Simply the best rice I ever made without stressing myself, or being on top of it while it cooks. The steaming basket? The huge bonus for me (which has actually opened new horizons in my diet). The basket is enough for a couple of regular persons or one with a huge appetite like myself :D So cooking rice while steaming anything on the basket is a huge benefit for me, as it basically means that you hit two birds with one stone (I don't want to sound vulgar to our little fluffy feathered flying friends - this statement excludes pigeons of course, which are annoying beggars). Two different foods in one cooking: less washing up! Happy times! Ease of use? 3 step function! Fill it up with contents - Choose what kind of rice (or soup, porridge etc) you want to make and press start. Let it heat and cook under an extractor, go do your thing and come back after a while with an empty plate to fill and eat (actually avoid eating the plate, they are very crunchy let me tell ya). So far i haven't been adventurous in making soups etc so I cannot comment on these, however the rice (long grain. basmati and brown) and steamed vegetables, prawns, frankfurters that I usually put on are out of this world. One thing to note is that the Bear (being a bear) is quite slow. Especially when cooking brown rice, which took about 50 minutes in my case. White rice generally takes about 30 minutes or so. The amazing thing about the bear is that it won't overcook or burn your food, once it is ready the device stops cooking and keeps it warm till you press the start/stop button on the lid. Which actually is a gem if you are a gamer, or if you watch a move and have forgotten about the food (which I do like 9 in 10 times). If you are thinking which rice cooker to buy, the bear is a gorgeous choice. It will feed 2 hungry individuals well with rice and steamed whatever, it cleans very easily and won't break the bank. Plus it not one of those wild bears that will destroy your house looking for the honeypot. It is nice and compact and can be stored easily till next time use. Amazing cooker, very happy with it! As the Brits say: "does what it says on the tin" (and is really good at it)

Unfortunately the product quality and customer service has been shocking. I would not recommend the small rice cooker 2L to others. One of the 2 arms that holds the removable inner lid broke after a single use. This inner lid should be removed to clean properly and the instruction manual states this too. However when I contacted customer services they informed me I don’t need to remove this. Which is worrying considering the inner lid has contact with the steam from the rice therefore could promote growth of bacteria if not cleaned properly. They refused to offer a replacement part/replacement cooker/full refund and I had to wait a month to receive a response. Luckily amazon provided a refund but I will not be purchasing this again. Avoid!

As someone who is completely new to using rice cookers, I was a bit nervous at first but when my dad requested one for his birthday that’s when I had to find something to make him happy and then I came across this since most of our rice cookers with affection nearly £60-£70 and at the time I had a very tight budget and couldn’t afford much so when I came across this I had a glimmer of Hope and then when it arrived I’m delighted to say not not only did it impressed my Dad, but it’s also impressed me as a first timer for rice cookers very easy to use once you get through the instructions and rice comes up perfectly cooked every single time not to mention you can also do steaming you can do soups and even porridge with this rice cooker! So if you’re looking for a rice cooker that’s cheap and yeah great quality versatility and functionality as well as a decent fast cooking time this is the rice cooker for you!

Ho acquistato questo cuociriso Bear da 2 litri perché cercavo una macchina semplice ma funzionale per preparare il riso in modo costante senza dover controllare continuamente la cottura. Dopo diversi utilizzi posso dire che si è rivelato un ottimo acquisto. La prima cosa che mi ha convinto è la praticità: è compatto, occupa poco spazio in cucina e si pulisce facilmente. La capienza da 2L è perfetta per una o più persone, quindi lo trovo ideale sia per l’uso quotidiano sia per preparare porzioni più abbondanti quando serve. La cottura del riso è uniforme e il risultato finale è molto buono: i chicchi restano morbidi ma ben separati, senza attaccarsi eccessivamente al fondo. Anche la funzione vaporiera è utile, soprattutto per cuocere verdure o altri alimenti in modo semplice mentre il riso cuoce. Apprezzo molto anche il pannello comandi, che è intuitivo e facile da usare. Le varie funzioni permettono di sfruttarlo non solo come cuociriso, ma come piccolo elettrodomestico multifunzione davvero pratico. Il cestello interno e gli accessori inclusi completano bene il prodotto. Punti forti: • Dimensioni compatte e facili da gestire. • Cottura del riso precisa e omogenea. • Funzione vaporiera molto utile. • Comandi semplici e intuitivi. • Buon rapporto qualità/prezzo. Unico aspetto migliorabile: avrei apprezzato una vasca interna con rivestimento ancora più robusto, ma per il resto il prodotto fa bene il suo lavoro. In conclusione, lo consiglio a chi cerca un cuociriso affidabile, semplice e adatto all’uso quotidiano. Per chi ama preparare riso spesso, è sicuramente un elettrodomestico molto comodo da avere in cucina.

I love this little rice cooker! It makes perfect rice and quinoa! It is simple to use and easy to clean. My only “complaint” is if you plug it in it automatically turns on to “warm”, so if you’re puttering around not paying attention to making rice it sits heating up. Small flaw, but I am learning and I would recommend it to the people who want a stylish effective rice cooker for the casual rice consumption family. (I’ve been told if rice is a staple to your every day, there are other “tip of the line” cookers for “rice snobs”) This one is great!

Great for cooking rice—very convenient and highly recommended. The rice comes out fluffy and evenly cooked every time. It’s easy to use, heats up quickly, and the compact size is perfect for small families or limited counter space. The cute design is an added bonus. I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to others.

I have since steamed potatoes, fish and cooked rice with vegetables in it. The Bear Rice Cooker is extremely easy to use considering it offers much more than just cooking rice. We are totally happy with the results, taste and the overall look. It has a handle which makes it easy to transport from the kitchen to the dinning table. The cooked meals stay warm/hot in the cooker, the rice is fluffy, the vegetables just right and the fish and potatoes were perfect. The cooking time can be programmed and the instructions are super easy to understand.

For $29.99, I’d recommend this as a great investment for single persons/couples and campus-bound students who enjoy rice at home. ⚠️ PRO TIP: Don’t leave cooked rice in cooker overnight: after about a day, sometimes the rice gets dried out around the edges. This is easily avoided with proper care right after cooking: tupperwear and refrigerate the left-overs. Rice has the same cooking-quality as a full-sized cooker, which can run upwards of $150+ for a nice Tiger or Cuckoo (iykyk 😉). This Bear mini is super cute and aesthetic, taking up no countertop space, supper easy to clean (non-sick Teflon maybe?! 🤓👍) and compact/easy to store (in my small nyc apt kitchen! 😂). I noticed that it doesn’t make the sputter-mess like other mini-cookers I’ve owned. Also, pretty sure mine came with a 1-cup measuring cup and a rice paddle. I’ve re-purchased one for each of my siblings! 🙂 Great product. [‼️PRODUCT-DEVELOPERS: offer more color-ways! 🌈🤓]
