Maybe tomorrow and do I need a rice cooker?

@PatZAnthony Do you like cooking?

I also now have both but I just cannot figure out what the slow cooker would not cook the rice cooker would. I do like cooking sometimes.

@Happy2BeMe @jackalyn i am asian so we eat rice every day for lunch and dinner and cook another dish on the stove to go with it. we only cook rice in it, but some models are equipped with steamers. i like that after i wash the grains and put the right amount of water, i can just plug it in, press 'cook' then attend to the meat/fish/veggie dish that will go with it. unlike the traditional metal pot (kaldero) that we put on the stove, the rice cooker does not overflow once it boils, and the result is always the same.

This is what I am afraid may happen.

@Jackalyn

I have never used one. Having rice that is perfect will be nice I guess.

I know what you mean. However , the slow. cooker is good if you cook beans.

@Jackalyn That's true. We don't have beans, not that sort anyway - just green beans.

So how do you use them. What are they good for and if one broke down would you replace it?

@Jackalyn they are different.Rice cooker for cook rice.Slow cooker i like use it cook meat or beans.Keep warm all day or all night well done.

I had not planned to have one and now I have I am.nonplussed.9

Yes, but what is different. I mean I could surely cook the rice in the slow cooker and the rice cooker appears to cook vegetables and the rice one just looks like a bigger version of the slow cooker?
