Our verdict

A simple large-capacity rice cooker that also steams vegetables and fish in the supplied basket. It is a basic on and off appliance without the grain menus of a microcomputer cooker.

Overview

BLACK+DECKER pairs a removable nonstick bowl with a tempered glass lid and a steamer basket. After the rice finishes, the cooker moves to a warming function.

Large capacity and a steamer in one body suit big dinners and meal prep. The limit is the lack of specialized menus, so it does white rice well but offers no grain-specific settings.

Who it's for

Families who cook rice for several people and like a one-pot steaming option get good use from it. A rice enthusiast may want a microcomputer model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Large cooked capacity
  • Steams vegetables and fish
  • Automatic keep warm
  • Nonstick bowl and glass lid wash easily
Cons
  • No grain-specific menus
  • Takes up counter space

Performance notes

Cooking time depends on the wattage and rice quantity, with a full pot taking longer. The glass lid lets you check progress without releasing steam, and the keep warm mode holds rice at serving temperature.
