Versatile and easy to use, this rice cooker and multicooker uses induction heating along with dual temperature sensors to promote even heating for more efficient cooking. Unlike cookers with bottom heating elements, this cooker completely surrounds rice and grains with heat output. The heavy-duty iron pot aids in heat distribution and has a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. Create a variety of tasty meals with the preprogrammed functions for white rice, multigrain, steam, oatmeal, porridge and soup. A specially designed steam tray also lets you steam meats and vegetables on top while the rice cooks below. Once meals are done, the machine automatically switches to keep-warm mode. Great for making up to 12 cups of rice for a crowd, the multicooker is also handy for cooking stews, rice pilaf and even pancakes.
