Tefal RK812

Lasted Only One Year – This is the second time a Tefal rice multi cooker or a Tefal electric pressure cooker broke down after just one year. I used it to make casserole, soup or curry until one day it would just show an error message and eventually stop working. Cost about $150 and $200 respectively. Very disappointing. Show details

Its a great multicooker – I love my multicooker as it has many functions and abilities. It can cook rice, pudding, pasta, soup, yoghurt and cheese. Everything comes out perfectly especially the rice. The only issue I have is with the rice setting it doesn't give you an estimated time of completion, it just keeps it warm when done so you have to keep checking but takes about 20 minutes.  Show details

Powerful but the size it too big – It comes with 45 cooking programs but I only use it to cook rice and congee so far. The material is really good and reliable. However it is just too big for my small kitchen. Overall it is good for 2-4 people and fun to play around those pre-set feature.  Show details

Great but the bowl is small – Great product and i use it a lot but the bowl inside is small. It says it makes 45 different recipes but it would be nice to have those on hand. The recipe book doesnt show much. It isnt so great at making brown rice either. I got it as a gift but am otherwise happy.  Show details

Good cooker but can be designed better – It is a great cooker and the bowl design works well in cooking rice and dishes. But the flip cover with its rubber rim always trap water that will spill into the bottom of the machine heating plate if not caught or wipe off quickly as soon as cover is opened. Hope design is improved in upcoming model.  Show details

Great Product – It is a great rice cooker. I know some reviews did indicate that no time shown for rice cooker function, it normally takes 20 mins so it works alright for me. I mainly use it for soup and rice only, it works well as the bottom of the bowl is round shape, no burned or uncooked part, it was cooked evenly. It is the best rice cooker I have used so far.  Show details

Reasonable for what it does – This is a pretty good multicooker for things like slow cooked stews and yogurt but it is difficult to get the smell out of the bowl between cooking meals. I leave the bowl out of the cooker between meals, put baking soda on a dish inside it, and I still can't get the smell to go away. It is also fairly mediocre for Rissotto as it doesn't stir -… Read more

there are crunchy bits on the bottom. It makes good plain rice, but it takes a long time and the display doesn't show how much time it will take to cook. Not sure I would buy this again. Product Review indictated they gave Tefal the chance to come back to me on this review, but I never heard anything from them.
