This is the best steamer I have ever used. I steam every thing and anything to perfection and it is just the right size. So easy to clean also. Just follow the instructions and guide. Love it.

You can cook almost anything in the steamer. You may have to experiment with the timing...

Of course you can cook brown rice as well as white. The water-rice proportions are a bit different, as is the cooking time (brown takes a bit longer) but yes, you can.

It does but keep in mind brown rice requires more water. For example if you cook 2 cups of white rice, you will do it in 2 cups of water. To cook 2 cups of brown rice, you will do it using 3 cups of water. I hope this helps.

Yes, it can. Not only rice but other grains as well. You can also make stews and soups. Most slow-cooker recipes can be cooked in this model.

no. although I imagine you could plug it into a wall timer. It does specify how long white and brown rice take to cook in the manual.

It has cooked any type of rice, including brown, for me so far, including packages of a mix of brown rice, wild rice, and lentils. I've not tried white rice.

You can use a rice cooker with any rice but it'll be almost the same hardness as uncooked. It will puff if you do it on the stove with double the water and double the time.

It did the first couple of times I used it, after a while i adjusted my own measurements and now it doesn't happen at all. It was trial and error at first but once you figure it out this thing cooks rice like a dream.

Sorry, I have only cooked white rice. I am still happy with its performance.

Not sure about other brands but I do know that this rice cooker is excellent. It also has a computer chip which allows you to use a time, I put cracked wheat in at night and it is ready for me in the morning, and yes you can use it form many grains since you have different cooking options.

I do not have a rice cooker, but would assume so. It may change the texture depending on how long they cook for.

Yes, I think most rice cookers can cook both brown and white rice. My wife is Japanese, so she cooks a lot of rice. Brown rice takes longer to cook, and a bit more water. She likes to soak the brown rice overnight before cooking. These cookers have some kind of sensor inside to tell them when the rice is cooked. Perhaps the sensor shuts off when all the water is evaporated.

You can make any kind of rice with a rice cooker. I cook brown rice in mine all the time. As long as you put in the right amount of water, the rice will turn out fine.
