KitchenAid Grain and Rice Cooker, KGC3155

We use this appliance to cook rice several times per week. Very easy to use, and the rice comes out perfect. Only bummer is that the black pot, can easily get a paint chip.

This product surprised me. It really makes fantastic beans in a set it and forget it way. You can tell they spent some time on the settings, and you can customize a setting if one of them isn't quite perfect. It made perfect wild rice on the first try. It's really helpful for vegan / vegetarian households. Highly recommended!

I have had this for a while and finally opened up the box. Why did I wait so long? Lack of counter space. But oh this is now my favorite appliance. So far I've just used the steamer, and made corn on the cob, broccoli, and a bunch of hard boiled eggs. This thing is MAGIC.

We’ve had this rice cooker for several months and EVERY time we try cooking something in it (rice, quinoa, couscous, lentils, etc.) it sticks to the bottom, overcooks, and burns it! We have to stop the cooking process sometime in the middle of the cook time and hope that it’s cooked all the way. Not worth the money we paid for it!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to splurge and buy what I though was a nice rice cooker. The problem is, if you are following a recipe with other ingredients, the unit tells you that you added too much broth, and dump some out. If you take out the pot to dump some out, it resets the system and now you can't start with the rice weight, as there is already broth and other ingredients in the pot. I was never even able to cook the rice. There should be manual settings to get past this. The Kitchenaid customer service people have made it even more frustrating with the return process. After finally getting it approved for return, I'm still waiting on a refund with them having received it over a week ago.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So after a month with the product and cooking four different grains I’m familiar with, I’ve been astonished at how consistent the terrific results have been. I love knowing that when I use it the device calibrates how much water and how long to cook contingent on my settings so that it’s perfect every time. I’ll not go back to my old cooker and can’t wait to cook even more in this cooker!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I love it. Exactly what I wanted. Makes everything so easy.

I REALLY want to like this Rice cooker, but I'm having too many problems with it. Not sure if the quality of Kitchen aid products has gone down or I just got a dud. When it works, it works GREAT, when it works. Most of the time the scale on this is wrong... like horribly wrong. And if I don't notice that the scale is weight the rice incorrectly before starting it, it always undercooks the rice because it doesn't add enough water. There are times where the scale will claim the rice is have the weight it actually is. Simply taking the container out of the cooker and letting it reset doesn't work very often. Most of the time it will still continue reading the weight incorrectly and it's always reading it less then what it really is. I would say this happens at least 3 out of every 4 - 5 times i use it. The other problem now that has been popping up is an Error 4A and that I need to unplug the machine for 30 minutes to let it cool down. This is when it's not even HOT. This keeps popping up at times when I lift the container out of the cooker, then suddenly the error pops up and when it's not even hot, at all. Like the warm feature turns off and it's been sitting awhile, I pull the rice bowl out to transfer the rice to a sealable container, as soon as I remove the bowl from the cooker, that error pops up. The bowl is barely luke up warm and I can touch it without issue, yet I get the Error 4A error claiming I need to unplug the machine and let cool down before restarting... I've only had this a few months I guess and I'm already regretting the purchase. I'm guessing with all the problems I'm already having with it, it probably won't even be functional by the end of the year or the problems will be so bad it won't be worth using. I'm just glad I kept my original rice cooker and didn't get rid of it after buying this one.

Every time I cook oatmeal, I have to lift the inside pot and reset the scale numerous times before it will calculate the weight & start adding water. Now it has started leaking a substantial amount of slimy foam/liquid though tge top vent. Very messy. Purchased my cooker only March 19th. Struggling.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t realize you needed a minimum amount for the rice.i was hoping to have a fresh two person serving every day, now I need to use way more than intended and refrigerate then reheat. Not what i planned. I also have the Jasmine rice come out hard, even after sitting for 10 min. after cooking. Trying to find the right custom setting to fix. Wish I wouldn’t have bought.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] the scale always gives an error, which makes it very difficult to use!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Recently received a free rice/grain cooker thanks to Influenster via KitchenAid. Well this rice cooker has quickly become a kitchen favorite! It excels at cooking jasmine rice- turning out perfectly every time. The cooker is incredibly easy to use, with intuitive settings that make the process a breeze. One of my favorite features is its ability to prevent overfilling. If you accidently add too much grains, the cooker alerts you, ensuring tou never go over the limit. It also checks the evenness of the grain distribution, notifying you if things aren’t quite right, which helps in consistent cooking. However, when cooking beans, make sure to always soak them first! Without soaking, the beans may not cook thoroughly, but once soaked the cooker handles them well. Overall, this rice/grain cooker is a fantastic and user friendly appliance, especially for those who like to set and leave when cooking and if you love perfectly cooked rice every time. The helpful alerts for overfilling and uneven grains make it a foolproof option.

I have had this product for a few months and it’s been terrible. Every time I start it up the water doesn’t pull into the machine and so it reads error and I have to completely disassemble the product to get it to work every time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wish this product was a bit easier to use. The design is sleek, however the capacity is small. Enjoy the fact that it is easy to clean and store. It keeps the food warm for an extended period of time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to give this appliance a five star rating because I am a devoted kitchen aid consumer. You can set the delayed cook 2 hours prior not anything shorter than that? You can’t cook a medium size batch of anything because it will bowl over. When you have a pot of gumbo on the cooktop and you want rice to feed six it’s too much. No more than 10 or so ounces dry or you get the warning. It over cooks even steel cut oats. Regular oatmeal is totally overcooked no matter what the setting. It cooks wonder jasmine and basmati rice in a small batch. I’ve cooked dried beans, oatmeal, steel cut oats, dried limas, and wild rice,jasmine and brown rice. It’s terribly convenient and I love so many things about it. Perhaps a custom setting will be the trick to oatmeal and improve the dried bean cooking.

I got this product for Christmas. I have tried it every week since then (at least 7 times so far). I'm only trying to cook normal white rice. Every time it cooks, there is sticky water running all over the outside of the device, spilling onto the counter and running onto the floor. I'm only trying to cook 1 cup of rice and the manual says it has a capacity of up to 3.6 cups of dry rice. I can't even imagine what that might be like. I take it apart each time and clean all the parts, but no help.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not convinced that this is worth the $$$ The scale is very SENSITIVE which cautiously makes me question how long this will last. I make Oatmeal every morning& sometimes rice once a week. On two mornings using the same Oatmeal brand from day one (Dec 25,2025) it miscalculated the water amount on 2oz of rolled otas & over flowed. I couldn't understand what was done incorrectly. I want to love it but I'm not sure.If the scale stops working maybe the cooker will stop working!?

Water and foam are coming out of the vent. How can I fix this? Has anyone encountered it? I do not recommend this rice cooker :(

All I want out of my rice cooker is for it to cook rice, and it can’t seem to cook it correctly. The rice comes out undercooked and dry.

I like the ease of this product. But the rice doesn’t always turn out how I expect it. The the black surface of the pot is already coming off and leaving black specs throughout the rice. We only use wood utensils on this product and only hand wash. I haven’t been able to find any replacements for the pot either. I don’t feel comfortable serving rice to anyone now so it seems like we wasted our money since we can’t fix the issue.
