this be a very nice rice cooker . the 1st one I receive - work once , and then start burn the rice after that . contact aroma customer support . they representative be very cordial and helpful and instruct I to return the cooker since it be malfunction -lrb- the cooker screen display a `` c1 '' and the cooker would not turn off -rrb- . I return to Amazon for replacement with no problem . the 2nd unit work great , and cook brown rice excellently ! it do take longer than my previous rice cooker . brown rice take from 100 to 105 minute to cook . it also require less water than my previous cooker which be a surprise to I . I hope to cook many a cup of rice with this cooker -lrb- if it continue to function well -rrb- .
