The best-performing rice cooker under $70 — it beat every full-sized machine in speed tests and produced evenly cooked grains consistently. Simple two-setting control panel is a feature, not a flaw.
Don't overthink it. Serious Eats tested a pile of rice cookers and this $67 machine came out on top overall. If you just want great rice without spending $300, this is your answer.
“The Hamilton Beach Rice Cooker's control panel is elementary compared to its competitors (there are only two settings for rice: White Rice and Quick White Rice), but it excelled in every test, producing well-cooked and evenly cooked grains faster than any full-sized machine we tested.”
