Excellent
It's really very good - no complaints at all. In reality, we just use the turbo setting and it takes 20 minutes. At capacity it can feed 3 people generously. It's pretty easy to clean, and we forgive its rather ostentatious look as it makes us good rice. One request: play a cute tune when the rice is ready, rather than just a beep! (For this frivolous reason, we would get a Zojirushi if it were available in Switzerland.)
My Love. Always. Chuckoo.
For years, I didn't know how to cook my rice. But then Chuckoo came along. Chuckoo's sensitive way of cooking rice amazes me every time. An absolute enrichment for my household.
Pro
- tasty rice cooked to perfection
- small, practical, good
Contra
- there is no such thing. Chuckoo is perfect <3
1-2 person rice cooker with quality
A small rice cooker like this is a must for anyone who makes rice 3+ times a week, even if it is quite expensive at 116CHF. Saves energy and makes everything yourself. A portion of rice weighs exactly 150g and costs around 0.6CHF + electricity and if the cooker is used a lot and lasts 2 years then the portion price of 1CHF is still economical.
The rice needs 35 minutes for one portion with the sticky program,
The pot weighs 396g and therefore has an acceptable mass so that the heat can be distributed evenly.
Alternatively, I would have used the YumAsia Panda with ceramic coating and stainless steel lid, but this is not available here.
The pictures show a nice comparison with my 6-portion cooker, which is of course in a different class with induction and pressure. But it still looks good for its 10 years and if the built-in battery didn't cause the display to go out after five years and there was a replacement pot, it would run like the first day. Just Korean quality.
However, if you are single or only like rice on your own, it is too big, as the minimum quantity is more like 2 portions, hence my choice of this less comfortable but with a better portion size. The large one has handles - and I really miss them so that I can simply empty all the rice onto the plate and prevent the pot from spinning.
Pro
- Rice is good
- Well processed
- inside protected against heat with metal
Contra
- Aluminium lid instead of stainless steel
- the pot turns when you want to take out rice with the spatula
- No water is collected in the collection container, it simply lands on the table when it is opened
- the pot has no handles
- Teflon coating
- The opening button is the wrong colour - see picture
Practical and efficient
Small yet efficient rice cooker that meets the basic needs of fast rice & porridge cooking for 3-person volume.
Pro
- Small
- Efficient
Worth every penny
I cooked mixed rice black, red, brown and white together and it was absolutely perfect. Jasmine, basmati and also sushi rice also came out absolutely perfect.
Rice pudding overnight has also worked wonderfully.
Once I had too little liquid and it has simply stopped earlier than expected and was not burnt
Performs incredibly well. I'm curious about the life but claim even if it lasts only 1 year already worth the price.
Now often use the timer function and prepare the rice tomorrow before work and then let him cook directly for lunch or dinner itself.
Menu you have to read once how it works but then it makes absolutely sin.Pro
- Every rice variety perfectly cooked
- 12min fast cook function if you want to rice at short notice
- Timer also makes perfect rice even 12h later
- Cool design
Contra
- Nothing
Serious rice cooking tool for smaller quantities
I was tired of having to make a minimum of two cups of rice with the 'basic' Tefal Classic 2. This Cuckoo, which is made in South Korea (bought in June 2020), allows cooking just 1/2 a cup at a time, which is perfect. The programming options are plentiful without being like a NASA device. The inner bowl is thicker and heavier than what I've had in European-designed rice cookers, which means that the heat is more evenly distributed. I was surprised that it cooks slower (around 30 minutes instead of 15 minutes with the Tefal), but the resulting rice is much better. The supplied manual (Korean and English only) contains some odd phrasing and a number of minor translation oddities, but is detailed and useful.
Pro
- Sophisticated and programmable
- Makes perfect rice every time
- Attractive design (if you like the curves)
- Allows you to cook smaller portions than many
- Comes with free separate plug adaptor to convert end to Swiss from 'Euro' plug
Contra
- Cooks slower than some bigger more basic models
- Requires regular cleaning of the condenser unit
Tiptop
Would buy again at any time
Pro
- Nicer rice
- Simple operation
- Easy cleaning
Contra
- Written in Korean and English
Excellent product
I've been using it regularly for three years and it's still as effective as ever.
Pro
- Fast
- Aesthetics
Contra
- Small volume (3 people max)
- User manual a little difficult to understand
Best option in Switzerland
I would rather have a Zojirushi rice cooker as they are the absolute best! But they are more than twice the price and hard to find in Switzerland. This is a good second place choice. It is relatively compact and works well for 1-2 people. It makes perfect rice! I hate the big bulky European power plug and adapter setup instead of a Swiss plug or interchangeable cord.
Pro
- Cooks rice perfectly
- Good quality
- Korean
Contra
- Bulky shape
- Big European plug instead of Swiss
- Somewhat confusing menu buttons and options
- Not Japanese
Works as it should
Pro
- Cooks rice
- Is small
Perfect size for a couple
Very happy with this purchase. If in a hurry, rice is done for 2 in around 20 minutes, or plan ahead and have it warm for when you get home with some to take to work the next day. Can probably cover a family of 4, but certainly no more without batch cooking.
Pro
- Delicous rice
- High quality
- Easy to clean
Contra
- Lowish wattage
Finally a real south east Asian cooker en Suisse.
Pro
- Proper rice cooker for jasmine rice
- Doesn't burn or dry when u reheat
- Easy cleaning
Contra
- Really ugly but fits perfectly with my 70s swiss kitchen
I would buy again in a heartbeat
Cuckoo products are great. The Koreans just know how to make rice...
Pro
- Sufficient for 2 people, for 3-4 portions
- Good workmanship
- Good price
Contra
- Nothing
Makes a great rice
Pro
- Very easy to use and makes perfect rice!
Super rice cooker
Pro
- Better rice quality with different cooking programmes
- with different durations
Super small rice cooker
Great little rice cooker - the rice is excellent and cooked just like in Asia, programmable, easy to clean. Quite simple to install, even if the instructions aren't super clear (but that's a question of style rather than language). On the other hand, you need to read English or Korean because it's not really intuitive.
Rice like a pro
I am thrilled! That's all I can say about this rice cooker.
Pro
- Good size for up to three servings
- Easy to clean
- It pays not to buy the cheapest rice cooker
- Looks good - the rice and the cooker
Compact and good
Compact rice cooker. Cooks the rice well, no burning or anything.
Unfortunately, only the last 10 minutes of cooking time are shown on the display. Before that, only a rotating "wheel".
As with all rice cookers, washing out the parts (lid, steam outlet) after cooking is a bit laborious.
The seal in the steam outlet tends to fall out during cleaning and is difficult to replace....Pro
- Compact
- Works well
- Ideal for 1-3 people
Contra
- Does not show cooking time, only the last 10 minutes
- Seal in the steam outlet likes to fall out
Makes perfect rice, the instruction manual is not easy to understand
The instruction manual --written in English and Korean (I think) -- seems to be written for people who already have experience with rice cookers.It really could be better organised, simpler and written more clearly. It took me about two weeks to understand the basics, even though I am an English speaker and there is nothing complicated when you finally understand. Just be patient! I think people who do not understand English or Korean might have an especially difficult time with the instruction manual.
Pro
- rice is cooked perfectly
- compact, not too big
- perfect for 2 or 3 people
Contra
- instruction manual not easy to understand
- instruction manual is only in English and (I think) Korean, nothing in German or French
Does it work very well
Pro
- Space-saving
- Easy interface
- Good for smaller portions
Decent rice cooker.
Pro
- Rice rurns out good
Contra
- A bit slow
- Instructions manual is a mess
Delicious rice
Pro

Contra
- a bit complicated to use
Super
Pro
- Small size on the table
- Several functions
- Steaming function is quiet
- Beeps on completion
Practical thing
Funny instruction manual (talks more than half about what not to do with the rice cooker, apparently for America). Very convenient, you can forget about the rice while it's cooking
Pro
- Does its job well
Contra
- Instruction manual only in English and Korean???
Love it
Pro
- Perfect rice, quinoa
- Small
Contra
- Takes a little long, not too bad
Highly recommended
It cooks beautifully, and with the basmati rice it fills the kitchen with fragrance. I would buy it again with my eyes closed. Once you've filled the measuring cup with rice (it also works with barley, quinoa and other grains) you only need to pour the water up to the level and the machine does the rest by itself. Calculate a longer cooking time than the stove.
Pro
- Cooks rice and other cereals well
- Works independently
- Programmable
- Simple
- Cooks even for 1 person
- Gentle cooking that respects the food
- The material of the pan is excellent
- Keeps food warm for hours after preparation
Contra
- You have to get used to longer cooking times than with the stove
- Cannot be used with condiments
Tiny but mighty
This little cooker is a beast in the kitchen. It's so easy to clean too. It will prepare perfect rice every time, making sure you don't add too much/little water. You can program the rice to be ready at any time you want, which will be more useful when I'm through with home office and can come home to warm rice every evening.
Pro
- Easy to use/clean
- Perfect rice every time
- Excellent quality
Great
Pro
- Awesome products , rice is the best I’ve ever had , comparable only to Asian restaurants
Contra
- Not user friendly - I haven’t been able to set time and comprehend other functions
