Hamilton Beach Digital Simplicity Deluxe Rice Cooker/Steamer Review

Hamilton Beach Digital Simplicity Deluxe Rice Cooker/Steamer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had the unit for about a month and have used it several times for rice and steaming vegetables. There are very nice features on this rice cooker. The choices for cooking are straight forward and easy to use. The steam outlet is handy and doesn't allow liquid to build up around the outside or base of the unit. It cooks both large and small quantities of rice equally well. My main complaint is that the steamer basket is too shallow, and doesn't allow for steaming larger vegetables, like artichokes, broccoli bunches, cauliflower, etc. It would also be nice to have a recipe book that gave a base line for cooking/steaming foods. (I used my old rice cooker's manual as a base line.) Overall, it does what it's supposed to do (cook rice)and does it well. Since it's made in China (like every other small appliance) I worry about it's reliability, but I don't see any other option for that problem. Last note: The warranty is next to worthless: the purchaser is responsible for shipping to and from the manufacturer should anything break or stop working in the first year.

I got these as part of our wedding registry here on Amazon and with about 2 months of use I am very happy with this set. More so than any other set of pots/pans that I own.
Here are some pro's:
1 - The non-stick is truly non-stick and so easy to use. The fact that the outside is non-stick also makes cleaning up easy.
2 - The handle really does stay cool, even near the edge on gas burners
3 - The size of all 9 pieces are very convenient
4 - Easy to wash due to non-stick and dishwasher safe
5 - Thermospots assists in cooking evenly
6 - Oven safe
Great price and value.

Hamilton Beach 72600 Fresh Chop 3-Cup Food Chopper Review

I am extremely pleased with this product. I had a 1.5 cup chopper that worked ok for very small amounts of food, but things like a large bell pepper, cut into finger sized pieces, would get tangled up and not cycle through the blades. This 3 cup chopped fits a lot more stuff in it's bowl, and so far, has worked perfectly for me. It is much easier to clean than a full sized food processor, and takes up a lot less space. Ideal for making small batches of guacamole, salsa, soup, stir fry, ect. It's noisier than my full sized food processor, but quieter than the cheapp 1.5 cup chopper I bought.

Whether you're making cakes, pies, salads, or sides, this Hamilton Beach food chopper makes it easy to chop up to 3 cups of onions, garlic, carrots, celery, nuts and much more. It's even perfect for smoothies just whirl frozen fruit and yogurt together and, in a few seconds, it's done. Use high speed for fine chopping and low speed for coarse chopping. Why bother with a food processor? The 72600 FreshChop is compact, simple to use, and does the job with no fuss. It puts the pleasure back into food preparation.
