Kind of. Has 2 settings white and brown. Does have delay timer, too. Great cooker for the money.

I honesty don't know. I pretty much only cook Basmati rice in it. You have to play with the water level. I error on the side of less so the rice stays firm but not mushy. But it seems all rice cookers are like that. I am very happy with it without a doubt.

I got this to replace my 10 year old cooker that lacked a brown rice mode. Yes, both of the special modes (gaba/umami) work as advertised. And if you make rice often enough, its worth the investment. Just be advised that they add to the cook time, so more planning is needed.

Yes, The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook (ISBN-10: 1558326677). This book has lots of good recipes and gives you a basic education on how to use your Fuzzy Logic Rice cooker, the different types of rice etc. Hope this helps.

It can pressure cook some other foods. Beans are done well in this machine. Soup is fun to make in a rice cooker. If you are asking if there is a function on the menu for meat, the answer is no. If you are asking if people do it or its possible, the answer is yes. I hope this helps.

Yes, I tried that once. It worked perfectly with the rice cooker but not dry steamer

Rice cookers operate on a moisture sensitive reading so they can differentiate between the various types of rice based on how long and how fast the moisture disappears. They sense the moisture level and go off accordingly hence why the rice will be evenly cooked ( in good rice cookers anyway) regardless of the type of rice being used. Possibly why some rice cookers seem to operate better than others may very well depend on the quality of their individual moisture reading sensors.

I didn't cook rice in it as far, but in the grocery I saw that some of the rice possible to cook particular in the steam cooker. Technically you should be able to do so.

I am also curious about this. I plan on buying this rice cooker regardless of how well it cooks tofu, but if the tofu functions actually works, it'll be even better.

Yes and no depending on what you want to cook. Yes : For anything that won't retain too much water e.g. Potato or when you evaporate all water e.g. rice dishesNo : Veggies, fish etc. These could get soggy (disintegrate) and you will have to strain things out at the end. Buying a separator (<$10 in any Indian store) or steamer basket is a good investment. Remember to remove the 'whistle' and steam for desired amount of time if you plan on using this as a 'steamer' and not a pressure 'cooker'.The quality of the steel (as others have already mentioned) is stellar. Cleaning it is extremely easy, unless you burnt something in it of course :) Yes and no depending on what you want to cook.

I HIGHLY recommend a rice cooker for rice. I've not used this particular appliance, but own a rice cooker and it is so much easier, better, and more consistent than cooking it on the stove. Set it and forget it!

I was asked to answer your question as a reviewer. The steamer bowl is optional. I don't even use it to cook the rice. I have used it with just water in the rice cooker part and steamed veggies. Get out your info that came in the box and contact Black & Decker directly if you need a replacement steamer bowl. You don't even need it to just cook rice tho.

The Aroma Sensor Logic is supposed to be the same as other Fuzzy Logic rice cookers, using a microchip to monitor and control the cooking.
