Yum Asia Panda Mini Rice Cooker With Ninja Ceramic Bowl and Advanced Fuzzy Logic (3.5 cup, 0.63 litre) 4 Rice Cooking Functions, 4 Multicooker functions, LED display, 220-240V (Arctic White)

I will start by saying that this is small. But mighty. It cooks the rice to perfection and fluffy. We have always wanted on of these rice cookers but was always bias about trying them. My wife and I eat a lot of rice and this was the perfect choice for us as there is only two of us. We only use one cup of rice at a time as that is plenty for us two. It is so easy to follow the instructions as the manual that comes with it is very informative and before you know it with just a few button presses you will be cooking rice in no time at all. I just love everything about this Yum Panda rice cooker. The clean up is great the top steem housing, Inner lid plate, Bowl and drip cap at the rear all can be removed for easy cleaning. It comes with a detachable power cord and that I like as it can be tucked away in my kitchen draw with the supplied utensils. Once I have cleaned it up up I leave the measuring jug supplied inside the unit just for the next time. The display is bright and clear and easy to read and follow. The Panda cooker tooks away in the corner of my worktop as it has a small footprint. There is a steaming basket that comes with it to but I have not used it yet. All in all This was one of our best buy's of the year.

The Yum Asia Panda Mini has completely transformed how I cook. I’ve used it every single day since it arrived and it genuinely couldn’t be easier to operate. The results are consistently great, the size is perfect for everyday meals, and it’s taken all the hassle out of making rice. I’m so impressed that I’ll be recommending it to family and friends without hesitation. A brilliant little machine.

I’ve been using the Panda Mini for about 2 months now, and it’s become one of my favourite kitchen gadgets. It might look cute, but it packs serious functionality. What I really like: Fluffy, consistent rice — No matter whether I’m cooking jasmine, basmati, or short grain, the fuzzy logic handles it beautifully. I rarely get undercooked or mushy rice. Easy to use — “Set and forget” is exactly what it feels like. Just add the rice and water, choose the setting, and it gets to work. Great fit for small households — With its 3.5-cup (uncooked) capacity, it’s ideal for 1–3 people. I don’t have to worry about large, unused portions. Keeps rice warm well — Even if dinner’s delayed, the “keep warm” function holds rice without drying it out. (This lines up with what others have observed too.) Easy cleanup — The Ninja ceramic inner bowl is nonstick and makes washing really simple. Nice extra functions — I often use the steam, porridge, or slow cook modes when I want more than just rice. What could be better / things I noticed: Cook times are not always fast — On “normal” mode it takes a while, so you need to plan ahead. (That said, there is a quicker mode, but results differ slightly.) Steam basket is shallow — When I try to steam a load of veggies, it’s not as roomy as I’d like. Others have mentioned the same limitation. Footprint in storage — It’s compact, but still has a bit of height, so I end up keeping it out on the counter. My verdict: For anyone cooking for one to three people (or just wanting perfect rice without fuss), this is a solid pick. It balances performance, convenience, and build quality well. It’s not flawless, especially if you push it with large steam loads or want blazing speeds, but for everyday use it delivers.

I am absolutely rubbish at making rice, I can never get it just right, this little machine however made it to perfection!!! The rice was lovely and fluffy!! Smelt good while cooking. I will defo be having more rice now, it’s just dead easy!! Follow the instructions, cups of rice to cups of water, turn it on and away you go. While it may take longer to cook than if you did it yourself, this doesn’t bother me as I can just prep everything else I need for my meal while this is cooking but that might not suit everyone. as it’s only small, it doesn’t take up much room and the buttons are easy to control and navigate. I love it!!! You can also steam in it too.

I finally caved and got this little rice cooker after putting it off for a while. This compact gem is perfect for my tiny kitchen, approximately the size of a compact CD player, remember those? Suitable for preparing dishes for 1-3 people. I'd been worried that adding a rice cooker to my arsenal of Kitchen appliances would be a waste of money for a single use appliance. I was surprised to learn It's like the Swiss Army knife of rice cookers – not only does it nail rice dishes, but it also handles steamed meats, veggies, soups, stews, and even cakes. Yes, cakes! Who knew? I certainly didn't. The best part? It's ridiculously easy to use. I mean, if I can do it without calling for my mum for help, anyone can. Whether you're a kitchen novice, pressed for time or just tight on space, this versatile little guy is a game-changer. Highly recommend!

It's such an easy thing to use, and it delivers perfectly cooked rice every single time. I always cooked microwave rice beforehand as I didn't have a lot of time, but that started to get expensive as I eat a lot of rice. However, since using the mini rice cooker, I can just measure out the rice, top it up with the required amount of water and set it and forget it, and it'll keep the rice warm for me until I am ready to eat it. It takes up barely any counter space which is great for me as I have a rather small kitchen and a collection of kitchen gadgets already, so if you're struggling for counter space I'd definitely recommend it.

Miglior acquisto del 2025. È incredibile, le cotture vengono perfette, la pulizia è facile e la programmazione puntualissima. I materiali interni e degli accessori sono molto validi, in particolare la ciotola interna per la cottura è davvero pregiata. La cuociriso è poco ingombrante, molto compatta e facile da spostare, molto bello il cavo di alimentazione rimovibile. Siamo molto soddisfatti di questo acquisto, è davvero comodissima da usare.

Warum noch ein Gerät hinstellen, wenn man Reis doch einfach im Kochtopf zubereiten kann? Das werden sich wohl viele fragen. Sicher wird man nach vielem Rumprobieren mit dem richtigen Reis und dem richtigen Topf und den richtigen Temperaturen und der richtigen Wassermenge irgendwann auch mal Reis im "normalen" Topf hinbekommen. Aber ich würde behaupten, es ist sehr unwahrscheinlich, dass man ihn so hinbekommt, wie mit diesem tollen Panda. Entscheidend sind für mich folgende Vorteile: Kocher anschließen und öffnen, Reis mit Messbecher abmessen und reinschütten, Wasser bis zur Markierung auffüllen, Deckel zu, zwei Knöpfe drücken, fertig! Man muss sich während des Kochvorgangs absolut NULL um das Gerät kümmern. Zum Ende hin zeigt es einen 10-Minuten-Countdown an, aber den kann man auch ignorieren, denn anschließend hält der Panda den Reis stundenlan warm. Ich kann mich also voll und ganz dem Zubereiten der Zutaten (Gemüse, Fleisch, Soße, ...) widmen und habe nix auf dem Herd rumstehen. Wunderbar entspannend! Der Reis kommt PERFEKT aus dem Gerät! Ich benutze Himalaya Basmati von Alnatura in der Einstellung "Long Grain". Er hat unten eine gaaaaaaaanz dünne Haut und wenn man ihn mit Kelle entnimmt, gibt es eine wunderschöne Halbkugel mit ebendieser "Haut". Doch sobald man ihn mit dem Essen vermengt, zerfällt er in einzelne Reiskörner, die ganz zart sind, die Soße leicht aufnehmen, aber doch nicht zusammenbappen. Genau richtig! Das Entscheidende sind ganz offensichtlich die hochwertige beschichtete Innenschale sowie die exakte Hitzesteuerung. Und das bekommt man eben nicht für den halben Preis. Is so! :) Bei der auf deutsch übersetzen Gebrauchsanleitung gibt es ein paar völlig falsche Wörter. Wieso man in Zeiten des Internets nicht irgendeinen deutschen Muttersprachler finden kann, der das mal eben gegenliest, verstehe ich nicht. (Ich biete mich gern an !) Aber man kommt auch so damit klar. Die Bedienung ist einfacher, als es die vielen Knöpfe und das Display suggerieren.

Works great so far. Read the instructions! It has a lot of info but it’s helpful and the rice cooker cooks perfectly if you use it correctly. And it bakes cakes?! I haven’t tried that yet but I’m intrigued.

Miałem problem z tanim ryżowarem, iż od spodu przyklejał i brązowił się ryż. Tutaj przy nalaniu wody do linii ryż wychodzi świetnie. Funkcja keep warm z czasem wysusza ryż, ale nawet po 9ciu godzinach nie jest źle. Polecam z ryżem jaśminowym.

Es mi primera vez con estos aparatos y la verdad que a sido un acierto elegir esta, la calidad es muy buena se nota que tiene buenos materiales, el vasito medidor y las dos cucharas están de cine, y se limpia muy fácil, aparte de ser pequeña por lo que para una persona que viva sola o una pareja viene de cine. Todavía la tengo poco tiempo pero es una delicia cocinar con ella queda todo riquísimo, cumple su función con creces y eso que aún estoy en proceso de ver que puede llegar a cocinar más a fondo. Solo le pongo un pero por ponerle algo, no te indica cuanto va a tardar en acabar de cocinar hasta el final del proceso, creo que 10 minutos antes de acabar, hasta que coges los tiempos es un poco sorpresa cuanto tardara en finalizar. Pero sin duda una compra acertada y muy recomendada. Lo dice alguien a quien un simple arroz blanco nunca le quedaba suelto 100%.
