There’s nothing quite like the power and convenience of a rice cooker . Sure, a simple pot filled with boiling water will suffice, but it’s impossible to deny the sheer ease of use that a rice cooker provides. Whether you need enough rice to feed a whole family or just enough for dinner for one, a simple press of a button is about all the work needed after you’ve washed the grains and added water.

This week, Aldi did the impossible by stocking its shelves with the Ambiano 2-Cup Rice Cooker . For those who may be on the fence when considering if they even need a rice cooker at home, this find is a great place to start. In terms of cost, it couldn’t be more affordable with its $12.99 price point. And its 2-cup capacity makes it the perfect rice cooker for someone who either lives alone or just with one other person.

Customers can choose between black and blue color options, both of which sport a ceramic nonstick coated inner pot that is easy to clean.

A rice spoon and measuring cup are also included for customer convenience to complete the package.

There’s no point in struggling to cook a perfect pot of rice anymore. Rice cookers have existed for years, and a small kitchen can really benefit from an appliance such as this. If you have limited countertop space, this is the ideal option for you. It can be packed away when not in use, or kept out on display for those who love to cook up a pot of steamy rice on a daily basis. Keep an eye out upon your next trip to Aldi, because with a price tag like this, who knows how long it will last.
