I'm thinking that the negative review on this product MUST be because they have something wrong with their microwave. Maybe they have it set too high. You have to lower the power to 50% to cook the rice, so maybe they forgot to do that.
As for me - I will NEVER cook rice any other way again! I cook rice all the time for my family. I use brown rice in 70% of my dishes. I have a rice cooker (a good one) and I also cook it stove top.
First of all, a rice cooker is one more appliance that I'd rather not own taking up space. Also, it has to sit out on the counter to cook the rice, which poses a problem if you have limited space and need to cook the rest of your meal. I have always had a problem with the electric rice cookers spitting water out and making a watery and crusty mess by the end of the cooking process. They are just a pain in my opinion.
As for stove top - you all know how much of a mess THIS can make, and unless you have SUPER cookware, it never comes out quite right.
Now for the Pampered Chef rice cooker. We are currently staying with a friend while our new house is being done. I went to make rice one night and my friend offered to let me use her P.C. rice cooker. I was skeptical to say the least. I mean, come on - in the microwave? In plastic? It certainly can't be any good - especially for brown rice. I am so glad to say that I was so wrong! It cooked rice like a dream!
First, you put a 2:1 ratio water to rice in the cooker. Seal it up and put it in the micro on HIGH for 5 minutes. THEN you power it down to 50% and cook for 20-40 minutes depending on the type of rice you are using (standard time for any cooker). I have used this over and over and have not had one problem. the rice comes out better than you could imagine! Especially if you use broth instead of water. Clean up is a BREEZE with this. the rice does NOT stick to the bottom (like my pans and rice cooker does) and rinses out so easily. AND it's dishwasher safe! Seriously, what more could you want??? This product is amazing and Pampered Chef stands behind their products so you have nothing to lose!

I have owned this product for over three years and have never had a problem with it. It cooks rice to perfection and I wouldn't make a rice dish without it. It doesn't spill over and cleans right up in the dishwasher. I'm planning on buying three of them as gifts this Christmas.
