Just 10 minutes on the stove, leave for work or play and return home to a delicious meal.

This Rice Cookers give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Useful, but not according to instructions
This thermal cooker has been a very useful piece for me, but probably not as Sunpentown intended. This has been invaluable as an insulated pot for potlucks, yogurt incubator, teakettle substitute, and a milking pail (yes, I milk goats), but not as an alternative to a slow cooker, which is its intended purpose.
When I tried to use the cooker as suggested, which was really difficult considering that the instructions were unclear and translated poorly, the food was underdone. When I cooked food in other containers (this one has a thin bottom) and then used this to keep the food warm, it worked much better. It does hold heat VERY well.
To tell the truth, I bought this, then put it away for a couple of months in disappointment. Then I started using it for potlucks, and suddenly came up with more uses. I made tea and kept it hot for hours. I used it to incubate yogurt. It became a great ice cube holder at parties. I'd like to see how it cooks rice. Hmmm...
2. No good
I'm not sure if it was the company that the item came from or if it was in fact a defect of the brand. I say this because the authenticity of the brand Sunpentown was questionable considering that the packaging was all in a foreign language and the Sunpentown name or logo was no where to be found on the packaging. This item was a gift and when the person pulled the item out of the box (at present opening time on Christmas mind you) the handle of the thermos broke off immediately which doesn't seem very safe since it's supposed to be portable and able to carry hot foods and liquids. I can't imagine what a catastrophe that might of been...blessing in disguise maybe. Needless to say I have since returned the item and I'm awaiting my refund as I type this. =(
Need more appointment... ?
works well
I use thermal cooker for stew and soup. I get good results most times. I bring the soup to boil for a few minutes before put it in, leave it in the cooker for 5 minutes, take it out and bring it to boil again, then put it back in, and just leave it until ready to serve. You need to heat up the cooker so it does not drain the heat from the food. You get better result this way.
