Cuckoo Rice Cooker – Should You Try This Up And Coming Model?

We know that there are plenty of you out there who love to go old school when making a pot of rice, slow cooking it in a pot of water (after thoroughly rinsing it, of course). But there are others out there who swear by a rice cooker. This kitchen appliance is beginning to become a popular kitchen item and one brand, Cuckoo Rice Cooker, is jumping to the head of the class.

Chances are you may not have heard of the Cuckoo Rice Cooker brand. Cuckoo is a South Korean company and does not yet carry the cache as some of the other popular rice-cooker brands such as Hamilton Beach or Panasonic. But Cuckoo’s have been sold since the late 1970s and if you go into any Korean store located in the United States, there is a great chance you’ll see one of their rice cooker models on the shelf.

Cuckoo offers a large number of rice cookers. At the present time they have 30 different models on their website, all offering different sizes, different features, and, of course, different prices. Let’s take a look at some of the highly rated Cuckoo Rice Cookers.

PRICE – $299.99 on Cuckoo.

Why We Like It – Who needs a rice cooker for a large party? Cuckoo has that for you as well. This beast can take on up to 30-cups of uncooked rice. The appliance is not fancy, just efficient. The inside pot is nonstick which makes cleaning after a big bash very easy.

THE CUCKOO RICE COOKER’S COOK USES PRESSURE-COOKING TECH

The one thing (there are a few) that also stands out with the Cuckoo Rice Cookers is that they use pressure-cooking technology. What this means is that their locking lids trap steam inside the cookers, which causes the boiling water to rise. This helps rice cook faster.

There are a “few” different types of rice, from white to brown and a bunch in between. In fact, there are over 40,000 different varieties of rice. To go with those varieties, there are three main types of grain – long, medium, and short. You may think rice is just rice, but with all those varieties to go along with the different grains, not all rice cooks the same.

This is why the Cuckoo Rice Cooker’s pressure-cooking technology is key to a perfect pot of rice. The heated moisture stays inside, allowing for a nice, solid, even cook. The days of mushy rice will be no longer.

THE CUCKOO RICE COOKER IS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN MANY OTHER BRANDS

If the prices of the Cuckoo Rice Cookers seem to be on the heavy side, well, that is because, for the most part, they are. This is one of the main drawbacks of the Cuckoo brand. But with those lofty prices comes a well-made rice cooker.

You can, though, find a few Cuckoo Rice Cookers that are reasonably priced. Some models, such as the 3-Cup Micom Rice Cooker (2 models) start at $99.99. They offer a 6-cup Micom cooker that starts at $79.99, while another starts at $109.99.

THEY CAN ALSO BE DIFFICULT TO CLEAN

Another drawback that some customers of the Cuckoo Rice Cooker find is that they can be somewhat difficult to clean. One reason is that some of the cookers have lids that do not remove. So, many times you will get a starchy build-up inside the lid, inside the pressure valves, and also in a small evaporation reservoir that is located on the back of the rice cookers. You may find yourself having to dig gunk out from around the appliance’s pressure gasket with a Q-tip.

If price is not an issue, it is hard to go wrong with a Cuckoo Rice Cooker. The brand is dependable and well-built. Obviously, there are a number of decent rice cookers on the market, but if you are looking for one considered top of its class, you can’t go wrong with a Cuckoo.
