How long does it take to cook 2 cups of white rice? We have a Rival one now and it take 60+ minutes. Thanks. :)

Never cooked that little, usually cook 5 cups in about 15 minutes. Fluffy white rice, has a seperate button for brown, but Ive never tried it. Its the only rice cookerI have had that can turn off without having to unplug it.

Hi, I've only cooked brown rice, 5 cups at a time, and it takes 35-45 minutes.

It takes about 20 min.Cleaning is a little difficult.Be careful with the rubber seal if it comes off it is hard to put it back, but it still cooks fine without the seal.

I cook brown rice mixed with 25% wild rice at the setting of "Brown Rice." The mixture cooks well with 150% of water without presoaking, but it takes 110 min. When time is short, I use a pressure cooker; it takes about 30 min. When I was a child, I used to eat barley at every meal, but I don't know how to cook. I will ask around. We always ate buckwheat in as noodles. I have just bought a bag of quinoa. I will find an answer in a month.

For this question, I cannot answer, because on it only two settings can be found: cook and keep warm. Also I just cook white rice, I just like white rice. So I do not know how long it will take to cook brown rice. Sorry!

Plain rice? Why would you buy this device to make plain rice? Maybe 15 minutes....but what a waste! Make a nice risotto instead! BTW, contrary to what "disappointed shopper" stated, I am very happy with this device and it makes really great risotto!

About 30 minutes. And then it suggests you let the rice sit for about 10 more minutes to let the steam escape. You can also use the vegetable steamer while cooking the rice. You just wait till the rice is nearly done and put the veggies in about 10 minutes before the rice is done. I make a mixture of white and brown rice together. Then pour all the rice and the veggies into a skillet and add whatever sauce or broth or egg mixture. I love this cooker.

Haven't really timed it, but white is about 20 minutes and I cook a lot of brown rice and it seems to take about an hour. That is what I plan for when preparing my meals. Absolutely LOVE this rice cooker!

Takes 20 mins for one and 25 mins for two so I would imagine 30 mins (not sure though). I love this product, takes all the effort out of cooking rice and is so easy the kids can do it on their own!

The provided instructions state this can cook up to 3 3/4 white rice yielding 8 cups cooked. Hope that helps. I've used mine several times a week since getting it and love it!

It doesn't do a great job for 1 cup of rice...not enough rice to actually steam. one cup of rice covers the bottom of the pan. I think a minimum of 2 cups works best. If you only want to cook one cup of rice, I would suggest you cook it in a skillet or small pot with lid (bring to a boil, cover, turn heat down to low for about 10-15 min).

About 20 minutes? I never measured but it seem to take the same amount of time as rice cookers of different brands that are also small in size. But it stops by itself so no worries.

I usually put on one cup of uncooked white rice and it is ready within 15-20 minutes. Oftentimes I do this over my lunch hour and add my rice to a can of soup. Enjoy!

About 15 to 20 minutes for us but we are a family of 5 so we need lots of rice. The smaller amount you cook the faster it cooks. I put it on when i start cooking so that by the time dinner is ready its finished. Id definitely recommend it

White Rice is about 40-45 minutes I believe. Brown is about 90-95 the unit automatically tells you when the rice is done and it is perfect every time as long as you use decent rice. if you use cheap Walmart rice it may end up being al dente style as it soaks up more water then most other rice.

one or two cups of white rice takes 1 hour either way. Brown rice never done it. Nice machine and quality!

I like my white rice a bit in the softer side so I always do double the water, but if you prefer your rice a little firmer then go with what they say. I also pre soak my rice for 20 min before turning the cooker ON (like they suggest on the instructions) so you may or may not want to do that step. Sorry for the late reply (I'm in Alaska, limited wifi)

I used 1.5 cup of water per cup of brown rice (depending on rice) and it worked great. It does take a lot longer to cook.

Hello David. I'm sorry I can't help because I haven't made regular rice yet. I Can tell you this. I've used to make Rice & Peas and a lot goes in it. 4 cups Rice, cocnut milk, black beans, garlic& onion, seasonings & water. My Meals take about 3-4 hrs to cook & the last 40 minutes I start rice & it's ready at the end. I would guess 15-20 minutes for reg rice. I love this thing & I've had many over the yrs. I recommend highly.
