This would be great for a single person or two dieters, or older couples that don't eat much because this is very VERY small.  the inner pot is not even 7 inches across and about 4 inches deep, AND the steamer basket is very VERY tiny , not quite 1 %26 3/4 inches deep.  It barely holds 2 small tomallles ( but steams well).  The streaming basket is less than 2 inches deep, so would hold a few vegetables, maybe a large SINGLE serving.  For example, basket might hold 2 spring rolls, but NOT hold 2 of most egg roll sized items\n The buttons and functions are fine,  it took about 30   minutes for rice BUT it was PERFECT.  No burning, no scorched parts at all.  Turned itself off and automatically changed to \"warm\" mode.","date":"2024-05-09","sentiment":"neutral"},{"productId":"hamilton-beach-digit","source":"walmart","sourceUrl":"","author":"Oscar A","rating":5,"text":"It is easy to store due to its size and can cook a surprising amount of rice while steaming meat and vegetables. Great time saver. I do wish the instructions were a bit clear as I had to use chat gpt to figure out the exact water to rice ratio because the instructions are just a bit fuzzy.

Easy to operate.\nthe only downsize is that it is a little bit tall to put under a hanging cabinet where there is a eletrical outlet to plug in.
