Review: Perfect Rice for 1–2 People | Easy, Reliable, and Simple to Clean - I sold my Instant Pot because the only thing I ever used it for was rice, and it never made rice the way I wanted. After saving this Sistema Microwave Rice Cooker for a while, I finally bought it, and I’m so glad I did. This inexpensive little cooker makes better rice than my Instant Pot ever did. I made basmati rice and it turned out perfectly cooked, fluffy, and not mushy. Based on my experience, this cooker is ideal for one to two people. Overfilling it is likely what causes the spillover issues mentioned in some reviews. Here’s the method that worked great for me and I think will give you a good starting point: I rinsed 1/2 cup of basmati rice, added it to the cooker with 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon of water, a dash of salt, and a small amount of olive oil. I placed the lid on, making sure the steam vents were not aligned, microwaved for 7 minutes in a 900-watt microwave, let it rest for 5 minutes, then microwaved for another 3 minutes and let it sit again for 5 minutes. The result was perfect rice. Cleaning was a breeze. The product says it’s dishwasher safe on the top rack, but I hand washed it and it cleaned up very easily. The smaller container that comes with this set is also very useful. I stored my leftover rice in it in the fridge and reheated it later with great results. It seals well and works perfectly for storage, making it a nice bonus alongside the rice cooker, which is definitely the star of the set. Overall, this has been one of my best small kitchen purchases and I’m very happy with it. Review: Super Convenient—Perfect Rice Every Time - This set is incredibly convenient and easy to use. The microwave rice cooker makes fluffy rice with very little effort—just add rice, water, and microwave. It cooks evenly and much faster than a traditional pot. The lids with steam-release vents work well and help prevent spills.The additional round food container is great for reheating leftovers or storing meals. Both pieces are BPA-free, sturdy, and easy to clean. The handles stay cool enough to remove from the microwave without needing extra tools. Overall, this is a super practical set for quick meals, meal prep, and everyday cooking. ## Features - MICROWAVE RICE COOKER & CONTAINER SET: Perfect for cooking rice, couscous, polenta and more, as well as reheating meals and storing leftovers - 2.6L RICE COOKER: Features pressure chamber plate to ensure rice stays moist and fluffy; simply add rice and water, close easy-locking clips and cook - MICROWAVE ROUND CONTAINER: Features a steam release vent in the lid for splatter-free cooking and reheating - INCLUDES: 1 x Microwave Rice Cooker with lid and pressure chamber plate (2.6L), 1 x non-stick rice spoon, 1 x Microwave Round Container with lid (915ml) - CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Dishwasher (top rack), microwave (with vent open), fridge and freezer-safe; designed and made in New Zealand; phthalate and BPA-free ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08H9MR8K7 | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,764 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #77 in Rice Cookers | | Brand Name | Sistema | | Capacity | 2.6 Liters | | Color | Red | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (5,719) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 09414202126207, 19414202126204 | | Included Components | 1 x Microwave Round Container with lid (915ml), Includes: 1 x Microwave Rice Cooker with lid and pressure chamber plate (2.6L), 1 x non-stick rice spoon | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 5.7"D x 7.6"W x 6.1"H | | Item Type Name | Microwave Rice Cooker (2.6L) & Round Microwave Food Container (915ml) | | Item Weight | 0.57 Kilograms | | Lid Material | Plastic | | Manufacturer | Newell Brands | | Material | Plastic | | Model Name | Microwave Rice Cooker (2.6L) & Round Microwave Food Container (915ml) | BPA-Free | | Model Number | 82001ZS | | Other Special Features of the Product | Durable, practical | | Part Number | 82001 | | Power Source | Microwave and microwave | | Product Care Instructions | Dishwasher Safe | | Voltage | 120 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sistema - **Capacity:** 2.6 Liters - **Power Source:** Microwave and microwave - **Product Care Instructions:** Dishwasher Safe - **Product Dimensions:** 5.7"D x 7.6"W x 6.1"H ## Images ![Heat & Eat Microwaveable Rice Cooker & Food Container Set with Steam Release Vents, Microwave Rice Cooker & Round Food Storage Container, Dishwasher & Freezer-Safe, BPA-Free - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hdcPcVZpL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Cook brown rice i have no direrctions** A: One cup rice and two cups water.
