Tsuki Mini Rice Cooker

This is probably the best mini rice cooker for 1 person, without breaking a bank. I love the ceramic inner bowl, and the utensils it comes with. The device is very compact, perfect for small kitchens or if you have little storage space, and it looks beautiful. The control panel is easy to read and use, and because it is like-touch control, it's easy to clean. Most importantly, it cooks perfect rice for 1-2 people. This is the only rice cooker I found to be able to perfectly cook a small single portion of rice (half a cup of uncooked rice, about 90ml). I really needed it just for that, single portion of rice, as I have a full size multicooker, which I love, and which can cook, steam, roast and bake a variety of dishes, but the minimum amount of rice in my multicooker is just too much for myself. This Tsuki cooker can also handle other pulses, like pearl barley, and can be used as a clay pot. The keep warm function does work for 24 hrs, although I found it is best to use the cooked food within 12-15 hours. After cooking, all it needs is just a wipe with a damp cloth on the inner lid and rim, and wash clean the ceramic bowl. The power cord detaches from the unit, and can be stored inside the bowl when not in use. This little beauty is worth every penny.

Love this rice cooker! I got it as I grew sick of my badly cooked rice, either sloppy or burnt. Makes perfect rice, simple to use (just fill up the cup with rice and then fill up to appropriate waterline in the bowl) and saves so much time and effort. You have to plan ahead of your meal so you allow the cooking time but that’s fine to plan for when it means you’re not stood at the stove minding rice in a pan. The keep warm feature is helpful so the rice is still hot if you’re not quite ready for it. Easy enough to clean if you do it straight away - spoons and cup all go in dishwasher but the inner bowl needs handwashing. The ceramic is naturally non-stick so washes clean easily, just needs a quick rinse. I dry it off immediately and leave upside down on a tissue to dry fully as you inevitably get a bit of water on the bottom of the bowl, so this needs to dry thoroughly so as not to damage the ceramic. Read the instructions fully re care of the ceramic bowl! I just run a piece of kitchen roll around the seal to dry that after each use, again easy enough if you do it right away. (Or at least as soon as you’ve finished your meal.) Also has a few handy recipes, though I’ve only used it for basic rice so far.

Having struggled to make consistently good rice over the years, I finally invested in this rice cooker. I have to say that it has been a revelation - you can simply set it to work and 40 mins (approx) later you have perfectly cooked rice.No saucepans boiling over or running dry, you can concentrate on whatever else you are cooking for your meal.It is especially useful because it reduces waste - when you are measuring rice freehand with a measuring jug I always seemed to make way too much. This is precise. Also, it is fine to make half a cup (supplied measuring cup) for a good single portion if eating alone.The only down sides (and they are slight niggles) are these:1. The control display is quite dim to read. So if the cooker is on a kitchen worktop in a lit kitchen, you will find yourself bent over with your glasses on trying to read it. It's not a show stopper, but it's a bit annoying.2. The instruction booklet could (should) be rewritten. It came with an insert card as well, which seems to have been an attempt to head off questions arising from the booklet, which is great, but in my view it could have been clearer from the start.Having said all that, I will still give five stars because the quality of the rice it produces is excellent, and removes the complication of good rice preparation from your time at the stove.

There are two major advantages with this machine. Firstly, the rice is perfectly cooked and will keep warm for hours, and secondly it has a ceramic bowl which just needs a wipe. No more sticky pans to clean. This machine also has a cute compact design.The only fly in the ointment is the ridiculously dim display on the front. These days modern kit has these super bright clear led displays but this baby is barely visible in daylight.Also worth noting that due to its compact size it will do a max of three portions of brown rice but 5 of white.

Easy to cook rice and of quality. Texture and appearance is really good. Overall cooking performance is great with the water ratio guideline provided.

Why did you choose this product over others?:I love this cooker! I chose it because it is small, modern looking and made by a reputable brand. The cooked rice is perfect and I am most impressed that despite it being recommended for 2-3 people, it will easily feed 4 people when served with meat and vegetables. I am very happy with my decision to get a rice cooker! No more spills over the hob just fluffy rice every time.

This is a perfect size for single people (or for couples) the minimum 1 cup of rice delivers the best rice that I have cooked so far and the finished quantity is sufficient for two meals. Cold rice is great for making fried rice.The cooker is easy to use but I have difficulty reading the display as it seems quite faint however, once I know what I'm doing I doubt that I will look at the display much.I feel that the clay pot keeps the rice warm for longer and I have successfully created a chicken and rice dish in the cooker following a TikTok recipe

The media could not be loaded. This product is absolutely flawed. You set the timer for 40 minutes, you press start and get lines circling around the display. I thought after a few seconds these lines would disappear and you would be presented with a timer, nope! After 2 minutes, the lines were still circling around so I put 38 minutes on my stopwatch. After 15 minutes a 10 minute timer appeared on the cooker?! So it only cooked for 25 minutes (????) not 40. My air fryer gives you an immediate indication as soon as you start cooking, this rice cooker should have the same option. I'm completely shocked, I can't believe this has been overlooked. Used now once sending back. Useless.
