What’s the point of buying a rice cooker? Is it the speed of cooking? Is it the automation of the functions?

Are we just too cool to go the old fashioned way of cooking delicious rice in an old pan? Why do most kitchens feel incomplete without a good quality rice cooker?

To us, the point of a rice cooker is to invariably a cook mouthwatering, fluffy rice pot without having to break a sweat. A rice cooker should afford you convenience by automating all its functions and letting you keep doing other things while the rice cooks in the cooker.

This together with the speed of cooking and the multi-functionality that some cookers offer, make the rice cooker almost a necessity for any household.

If you are looking for a good, compact rice cooker to kick-start your journey in the world of rice cookers, then we have a small gem that we think you might like; the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker.

This is one of the smallest rice cookers in the market today but one which constantly punches above its weight in terms of performance. Here is what we like, and don’t like,  about the Aroma ARC-753SG Stainless Rice Cooker;

Features

This is a rice cooker equipped with features for one pot quick meals. All its features are handcrafted to make it as easy as possible to cook whatever rice meal you have in mind.

Here is an in-depth look at the individual components of the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker;

Stainless steel pot
Inside the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker is a stainless steel pot which does all the cooking.

The stainless steel pot has earned this cooker a lot of plaudits because of how efficient it is at properly cooking rice, helping retain the natural smell and flavor of food and the ease with which you can clean it after a cook.

Unlike the non-stick coated pots which are infamous for rice sticking at the bottom of the pot after a couple of cooks, there is absolutely no rice that sticks to the bottom of the stainless steel pot’s bottom and this makes it so easy to clean.

It is also important to note that disassembling this pot from the cooker and replacing it is very easy.

High-quality glass lid with handle
To cover the stainless steel pot is a heavy-duty glass lid with a plastic handle at the top. The heavy duty glass is very thick and heavy in weight to enable it to properly cover the entire pot when rice is being prepared.

The heavy lid prevents hot rice water from sputtering from the rice cooker when it is in operation and this reduces cases of scalding and burns.

The plastic lid handle is obviously an insulator and you can, therefore, lift the lid even when the rice cooker is cooking without worrying about getting burned.

Simple One-Touch Operation

Operating a rice cooker has never been easier! With the one-touch operation of the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker, cooking only takes a flip of a switch and your rice will be ready in minutes.

The Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker comes with just two options of cook and keep warm.

It therefore doesn’t take much knowledge in the world of rice cookers to know how to operate this little masterpiece. You just need to set it to cook and keep doing other things around the house.

As soon as the rice is ready, the cooker will automatically switch from the cook mode to keep warm mode.

Design and aesthetics

The design of the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker is pretty conventional. It is not the catchiest of designs but then again, aesthetics were not the priority when designing this pot-functionality and performance were given the priority.

This cooker has a minimalistic design which occupies very little space in the kitchen. It is designed to cook anything from 2 cups to 6 cups which makes it ideal for a young family of 2 or 3.

The cooker takes after the conventional kitchen pot in design with two handles on the side. When all parts are assembled, the final look is very impressive to say the least and it will enhance the aesthetics of any kitchen.

The white color of the cooker is also eye-catching and if you wash it well enough, it doesn’t lose its shine.

It is also important to highlight the base of the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker. Because it is relatively tall, it can be a little unstable.

The base makes up for this by being as wide as possible and the ‘feet’ of the cooker are short and stocky giving the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker the stability it needs to avoid toppling over.

Usability and cooking

As earlier on mentioned, this is one of the easiest and most straight-forward rice cookers there is in the market.

All it takes to get it started is plugging it into a socket and pressing the cook button. Once the rice is ready, the cooker will automatically switch to keep warm mode and this ensures that the rice will be served warm.

As part of the usability, it is important to highlight the fact that it is very easy to disassemble the cooker and clean the individual parts. From the interior stainless steel pot, the glass lid to the holding trough, every component can easily be cleaned.

Properly cleaning a rice cooker is important as it renders the cooker clean and gets rid of any unwanted odors. The result is always delicious meals with the natural smell and flavor.

As for the ability to cook, very few cookers can rival this masterpiece when it comes to consistently producing properly cooked delicious rice.

Thanks to the stainless steel pot that ensures even distribution of heat to the food, the meals are properly cooked with no undercooked or charred parts.

The Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker also offers meal versatility.

You can cook a whole lot of meals in this cooker. Be it a fluffy cake, brown rice, oatmeal, white rice, veggies, jambalaya, chicken soup or sushi rice, the list of foods that you can prepare in this cooker is endless.

Irrespective of the meal that you are looking to cook, the results will consistently be wonderful.

Safety is one of the aspects of the Aroma ARC-753SG Simply Stainless Rice Cooker that we particularly loved. Despite its relatively simple design and lack of sophisticated features, the Aroma Rice Cooker is one of the safest rice cookers out there.

From the insulating exterior to the heavy lid, there is very little that can go wrong with this cooker. The cooker is also certified-having passed all the necessary safety tests.
