Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Panasonic SR-G06FG 3.3-Cup Rice Cooker/Steamer
Customer Review: Simple, easy, small rice cooker
Summary: 5 Stars
Come on now! For the price of this thing, the value is great! I've been using it for about a month or so now. As a single dad, it's been a godsend. Rice fills out a meal and some nights it's the only thing my kids will actually eat. I fried up some chicken in a pan from a boneless, skinless breast, used some seasoned salt and let the rice cooker do its thing. Lo and behold, about 20 minutes later I had some savory chicken and the rice was done. Add some frozen stir-fry vegetables cooked in about 5 minutes and it's a meal!!!
One of these days I will splurge and buy a nicer, fancier model with warming, a steaming basket and stuff like that. But, for the money, this does what it says it will do. I've cooked white rice and brown rice. I use the little plastic cup that came with the cooker and do a 1:1 ratio for white rice and 1:1.5 ratio for brown. I've had a little bit of scorching on the bottom of the rice sometimes, but nothing bad. The brown rice *does* seem to bubble a little more and adds to the clean up time, but that's all.
For a guy like me, the rice cooker is a great thing. Hit that button and the rice cooks. It pops up when it's done. That's it! I never used to cook rice because it was such a mystery to me. No more! If you're looking for a simple small appliance, this is it. It just works and does what it says it will.
Customer Review: Pretty good stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really nice hassle-free basic rice cooker. I got it about a month back and have been using it everyday. Somethings about the cooker:
1. Ease of use: very easy to use. Calibrations for water measures inside the rice cooker are spot on. No need for any improvisation.
2. Cleaning: very easy to clean as its non stick and rice doesnt stick to the bottom, unlike other cheaper cookers.
3. versatility: have cooked two very different types of rice in this and it manages both with panache.
4. quality of rice output: very good, fluffy rice. Manages to cook even the starchiest ones properly (though you would need to clean those a little more than others)
5. wish list: wish this had a steam basket.
I highly recommend this one as its value for money at $20.
Customer Review: Compact cooker
Summary: 4 Stars
Compact, easy-to-use rice cooker (but NO steamer basket) is inexpensive but does its job in a straightforward way. Good for 2-3 people.Customer Review: Fast, easy, rice that tastes good
Summary: 4 Stars
This is my first rice cooker and Im glad I bought it. Makes rice quick and easy and it comes out great. For single guys like me that dont like to cook, you can buy rice-a-roni and make it in this steamer!!! pour the rice in, mix the spices (while dry), and then add water up to the number 2 line. Wait about 35-45 minutes and you got great rice.
Easy clean up, no hassle, set it and forget it.
