Advantages: Cheap, apparently easy to use once you get the hang of it
Disadvantages: I got a faulty unit and wasn't prepared to risk it again with a new one

NTRODUCTION Due to a bit of Christmas net shopping, I had a £10 gift voucher from Argos burning a hole in my pocket and needing to be used by February. As this is pretty soon, I racked my brains for something I needed, and I came up with this, as I always seem to run out of pots big enough for cooking fair amounts of rice, and my mum keeps on raving about how good rice cookers are. This particular model seems to be exclusive to Argos. It was half ...
...I thought this worth reviewing as it's a gadget I've always fancied yet never been fully convinced of its merits.

Advantages: Good Capacity
Disadvantages: None

...The main advantage of the Morphy is the Oval dish which we find better than our old round one. We often cook chicken and joints in the cooker and they seem to fit better, although the capacity is the same as we had before. We also like the positive switch espacially as it has an OFF position which is lacking on some models. Nice design, good looking, fits our space better and is Stainless Steel too. The croc pot is easy to clean with its high gloss ... Read review

Advantages: ease of use and ease of cleaning
Disadvantages: rice foam bubbles out the sides if too much water is added

The rice cooker was bought to replace another rice cooker with a hinge style lid. No problems with its operation and the instructions in the booklet were spot on for the measures of rice to water. It's very reliable and consistent in its operation. However there is a lot of steam when cooking so it needs a window to let the steam out otherwise the walls get steamed and you do get a lot of rice foam bubbling over the lid and down the sides of the ...
...lid are all very easy to clean. And after some use you soon get the balance of rice to water and washing just right to minimise the overflow from the cooker. The cooker is in use almost every day so I would rate this for use and reliability and ease of cleaning. Also the steamer tray is well designed it has lift up handles so you can get the tray out of the bowl easily after steaming. And it cooked really quickly as there are lots of holes to increase ...
