Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Black & Decker RC550 rice cooker in white with black accents and a glass lid.
Customer Review: glass in food is not quite tasty
Summary: 1 Stars
I am *very* disappointed in this purchase. I have used this cooker less than 10 times, and each time the rice has been dry and gross. My mother has a rice cooker that's going on ten years of steady use, and the rice always turns out flawless - i know that good rice cookers exist. The sojirushi (sp?) are excellent and well worth the extra cost. Consequently, where I thought i would save a few bucks and go Black & Decker, I have now decided to spend more for the better product and will purchase a sojirushi.
This cooker is also DANGEROUS. The steam from the top does not escape properly, and caused a fracture in the glass lid. Chunks of the lid literally fell off in the process of cooking! I wrote to black and decker for a replacement and they routed me to another company that apparently sells these products with the Black and Decker name. This new company, well they didn't even dignify me with more of a response than to call customer service. Apparently it is not a major concern that their faulty product is shooting shards of glass into people's basmati.
Thinking of buying this cooker? My humble advice is to just say no.
