This is the first thing that struck me, he will not stop by itself, but only if there is more water in the unit! ! ! What a pity! Missing it for typing in the 5 stars! Thus, during its first use, my sticky rice was cooked too ... so ... I think I was wrong in the mix (too much water) and I let cook until the automatic stop snaps I was not discouraged, and after a better mix at its second use and increased surveillance, my rice was perfect. However, we can not leave the cooker completely independently (even if there is no risk that it Crame since cooking Dry stops), it is best to check the end of cooking especially if the rice looks cooked and in this case, stop the cooker on its own. Apart from that, the convenience is that you can make for a nice little group (7-8 people). Finished the galley pans! Before I had always my little rice is not cooked enough. But that was ... well! If so the product does not take up as much space as you think at first glance the pictures and above all it is very light. Maintenance is super easy! The instructions he is reviewing. The explanations are not clear! A very good product for me then!
