I made the best mashed potatoes I've ever tasted the first time I used this rice cooker! I took the advice of some other reviewers and cut them into pieces that easily fit in a rice cooker, closing the handles was easy and I don't have big or strong hands. When I finished cooking the potatoes, I quickly rinsed out the rice cooker. I was amazed at how easily the pieces came loose at that moment; Washing up after dinner was a breeze.

Totally disappointing. First, this thing is so small that it won't fit in a decently sized pot. I was blown away by the size when it arrived. Okay, so I put it in a smaller pot.

Admittedly, this is the first rice maker I've ever bought, so I have nothing to compare it to other than traditional mashing methods that have been used since time immemorial. It's very well made (I've dropped it twice without breaking anything). Depending on the size of the bowl you are using, you can set the rice cooker on top while adding the cooked potatoes.
