We have a 1000 watt microwave and have tried levels 7 thru 9 with about the same results. The potatoes are cooked as expected, but it still takes longer than the 4 minutes they advertise.

It depends how many cups of rice you have to cook. More rice will take longer to cook. Normally it took me 30 minutes to 45 minutes.

The way we do it is. Decide how much rice you want to cook. Let's say one cup uncooked. Put it in the pot...then look for the levels based on what you are cooking: brown etc. Fill up the cooker with water up to that line...For example, you have one cup of uncooked brown rice, put the brown rice in the cooker, then fill up the cooker with water to the line that says 1 cup under the brown rice section. Hope that is clear as mud. You will find the cooker is actually quite smart and forgiving. We've made nice rice every time. As for oatmeal, I'll check on that. I think the principle is the same, but I don't usually prepare it. The way we do it is. Decide how much rice you want to cook. Let's say one cup uncooked.

normally, it take 1 hour and I used hot water to cook brown rice so it will taste good than using cold water.

2 cups uncooked rice (Yield 4 cups cooked) takes 25-30 minutes for white and 90 for brown. Rinse rice well before cooking. This will remove the starch that causes the 'crust' on the bottom. I love this machine so much that I bought one for each of my children for their homes! Quick and easy!

Cooks white rice in average time. Brown rice ALWAYS takes longer to cook, but I don't recall that it took as long as 90. I love this cooker. Rice made here is delicious. And so many other meals can be made in this. Find a rice cooker cookbook. Very versatile machine.

I used to give it about 10-15 mins. For the rice to warm up to room temp. But, I rather take the rice out and cover it with some plastic wrap and put it in the microwave. If I use the rice cooker to warm it back up it tends to be dry along the bottom and the sides of the pot.

I put 1 cup of brown rice and 1 1/2 cup water in the steamer and steam it for 60 minutes. It turns out very good!

I only cook brown rice (for dog food). I measure the rice first, put it in the cooker, then measure the water and put it in. Brown rice takes longer to cook than white rice. I turn the cooker on, set the "Delayed Timer" to "one", which is going to soak the rice for one hour then press the "Brown Rice" setting. I cook 4 c. water and 2 c. brown rice. At the end of 2 hours, the rice is done perfectly. What does the instructions say about cooking white rice? Just follow the instruction and it will work fine. I love my rice cooker and it makes my job of making dog food a lot easier. Hope this helps. :) I only cook brown rice (for dog food).

Never cooked that little, usually cook 5 cups in about 15 minutes. Fluffy white rice, has a seperate button for brown, but Ive never tried it. Its the only rice cookerI have had that can turn off without having to unplug it.

Depends on watts of microwave. I do 4minutes for 1100-1200. 6 minutes for 800-850. Hope that helps.

We have the 5 cup model and rarely cook more than one cup also. One cup is the minimum for both white and brown rice.

You can cook rice in the steamer. You need to soak the rice a few hours first. I don't have the exact recipe measurement but you probably need 3 parts water to 1 part rice. Steam for half an hour first. If it is not thoroughly cooked, steamed a little longer. As for brown rice be prepared to double the cooking time. Hope that helps.

Hi, the max power is 500 watts/hr. The rice takes roughly 20 minutes to cook.

Yes, that is one of the types of rice it can cook. If you put it on the "quick cook" setting, the brown rice will cook in less time (about 40-60 mins) and be more chewy. On the regular setting (about 80-120 mins), it will be more soft and fluffy.
