    We got the Breville one. I just hope the missus doesn't see the tefal one she loves her tefal pans she got from argos in sale. 55 quid for a rice cooker


    I just noticed we may have the same one as Piamed. Sir take it back and make a fuss for the first six months sales of goods act says the shop has to prove it was not a inherent fault. So they should give you a replacment or a full refund.

    Dont let them get away with it for the league of rice cookers or LORC as we are known sake. No way should it have done what you have described, I would be making serious complaints as thats a potential fire risk
    Im sure you know dont let them blame it on the makers the shop is responsible. They can take it up with the maker not you.

    All i can say is thank God/lab techncian your both ok.

    The trick with our rice cooker seems to be..

    1. Use extra water

    2. Switch off at the wall as soon as it switches from "cook" to "warm".

    I still reckon that a saucepan is easier!

    The water and rice ratio as you can imagine is very important.

    We mere Whiteys will never be able to grasp it

    The Wife and the ladies of her family can make various textures of rice it seems with just the ratio.


    From just hearing me loading the rice cooker from the next room she says oh that will be to sticky or what have you

    use more water (says 1 to 1, i put maybe 2 1/2 or 3 to 1 and turn off when it flicks to warm (never used that)
    we have the breville RC3, used daily(still going strong 14 month later)

    According to the link this rice cooker is now at half-price, £9.99.

    I have no connection to Argos or any rice cooker manufacturer.
