| Customer Reviews: it fit the bill February 20, 2010 C. Ryan (Florida) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have always wanted a digital rice cooker and when my conventional Gaunaurd rice cooker died, the hunt for one was on. I didn't want to spend too much on one (i.e. Zojirushi). My criteria were simple, I wanted one with more than just a "cook" and "warm" setting. I wanted to be able to turn it off. It had to be digital but not necessarily programmable. My husband and I were also looking at the Krups FDH 212 before I saw this rice cooker. The only difference I notice between the two so far are: Krups has 3 setting, Oster has 5; Krups allows delay cooking by 9 hours, Oster by 8 (why Oster didn't do 9, have no idea... wasn't like it was an extra digit); and the power cord on the Oster is detachable, the one on the Krups is permanently attached to the unit.
I was a little hesitant to buy a rice cooker made by Oster because I read some reviews on their other rice cookers where people were complaining about burnt rice. I made rice in it the day I got the cooker and the rice came out perfect, no burnt rice! I have not used the steamer basket yet so can't say too much about it. The lid stays cool. The sides get a tad warm from the heat but it is not hot enough to burn your hand.
Some things to consider but they do not really bother me: the power cord is a little on the short side but it is fine if you have the rice cooker right by the power outlet (or you can use an extension cord). I like the short cord since my other rice cooker had a long cord and the thing was just piled up behind the rice cooker. The owner's manual is a little skimpy. If you want/need some recipe suggestions, you won't find them here. Krups includes recipes in their owner's manual which is actually a book, not a fold out thing.
All in all, I think this is a good buy and a nice unit for the price (difference of approx $30 between the two models I was looking at).
