This rice cooker works great for two people. Makes consistently good rice and is easy to clean. It replaced a no-longer-functioning Aroma cooker that I liked a lot but made more rice than I typically need (I can use my instant pot for more servings). I wasn’t sure about getting a smaller size since I’d also had an Aroma mini that was messy to use. This is a basic, affordable cooker if you don’t need bells and whistles and want to save space. I have only used it for brown and white rice so far but it does have hot cereal and steamer functions. It came with a steamer tray.

This Hamilton Beach mutlicooker is a small 1.5 quart size cooker with several preset functions. There are preset time buttons for cooking. The preset values in slow cooker mode are default times that can only be incremented by 30 minutes at a time. The presets cannot be decreased.
I used the cooker’s egg, rice and slow cook functions. The egg function makes perfectly cooked eggs. The rice function made very good fluffy rice (I used only brown rice). I used in low mode for slow the food was still hot when finished.
The only real downside I can think of for this cooker is the lid doesn’t seem too durable. The lid is fastened to the cooker by two plastic clips. Flipping the lid over, it seems like the silicone gasket doesn’t remove without the possibility of having to unscrew tiny screws on the lid (which I did not try). This makes the cooker a bit awkward to clean. The lid is functional but just seems a bit fragile.
In summary, here is what I like and dislike of the cooker:
– Likes
——–
– eggs come out perfect
– brown rice cooks nice and fluffy
– slow cook on low cooks food to hot but not too hot temperature
– entire lid comes off, thus can be soaked in dish soap to wash
Dislikes:
– lid doesn’t look durable
– can’t set precise slow cooking times (can only use preprogrammed times and from there, 30 minute increments)
I give the Hamilton Beach 37524 Digital Programmable Cooker 4 stars out of 5.

Makes perfect eggs and rice. Still have other things to try in it. Perfect size for a couple. Easy to clean and store.

No more burnt pots of rice!! I love this product because it is easy to use, clean, and takes away having to watch a pot of rice on the stove. I am looking forward to using it to steam vegetables as well. Thanks Hamilton on a job well done!

My old rice cooker went bad, need a replacement. I was looking for very simple rice cooker, no need for any fancy features. Just cook rice, brown rice in particular because that’s what I eat. I selected this Hamilton Beach 8 cups rice cooker because I have good overall impression of Hamilton Beach as a brand. Had an HB juicer and it lasted forever.
The package was well organized and protected. Came with some accessories neatly packed, but all I really needed was the measuring cup. The coating on the nonstick pot seems rather thin, and the pot doesn’t feel as sturdy as ones seem in higher end rice cooker. Also, the power cord is extremely short, measured at only about 25 inches. That kind of limits where you can place it on the countertop, unless you have an extension cord.
Cooking process was nice and simple, I basically rinse the rice, add water, place the pot in the cooker, press “Whole Grain” cooking option, and that is it!
This simple rice cooker does its main job very well, I am satisfied with the result.
It is very well-priced for a simple rice cooker. My expectation is to enjoy trouble-free rice cooking for the next 3~4 years. If this thing breaks within 1 year (or even shorter), you will see me come back to update the review.

My old rice cooker was messy! This is so wonderful. No mess, easy to clean. easy to follow directions. I make white & brown nearly 3 xs a week for home made
dog food & family. So easy to measure with provided items. Perfect rice every time.

I like that it is made by Hamilton Beach! Well-made. Very compact. Doesn’t take up much room on the Kitchen counter. We like the ability to steam fish, and also re-heat leftovers. It doesn’t heat up the kitchen.

The Hamilton Beach Digital Programmable Rice Cooker & Food Steamer is a fantastic addition to any kitchen. It effortlessly cooks up to 8 cups of rice to perfection, with a digital interface that’s simple to navigate. The added steam and rinse basket is a game-changer, allowing you to steam vegetables or rinse grains easily. Its stainless steel design not only looks sleek but is also easy to clean. This cooker is a must-have for anyone looking for versatility and convenience in their meal prep.

This is replacing one that I had in the same name . Was surprising when it came it was smaller but I was happy with it cause the other one was a little too big . This is just perfect for two people . I love that it came with a basket for steaming , my other one didn’t . I steamed by broccoli while my rice was cooking .
Very happy
