As a home appliance evaluation experience officer, I am well aware of the importance and convenience of rice cookers (often called rice cookers) in the kitchen, but I do need to remind everyone to be cautious when purchasing, so as not to choose a rice cooker with poor materials and may release harmful substances, so as to avoid potential health risks, especially carcinogenic problems. Are rice cookers really practical? On this issue, I will analyze the problems of inferior rice cookers for you. Here are some of the rice cookers I've reviewed:
1. Are rice cookers really practical?
Are rice cookers really practical? A professional rice cooker is not only practical, but also brings us a lot of convenience. However, some low-quality rice cookers may be made of low-cost, low-quality materials, which may release harmful substances during high temperature or long-term use, and once these substances enter the food, after being ingested by the human body for a long time, they may cause adverse health effects and even increase the risk of serious diseases such as cancer. Next, I will analyze it in detail for you.
Side effect 1: Emission of harmful substances
Are rice cookers really practical? The coating material of inferior rice cooker liner is often made of low-cost, low-quality materials, which not only have poor scratch and wear resistance, but also gradually aging and peeling off in a long-term high-temperature cooking environment, and these coating fragments may be mixed into food, and after being ingested by the human body, these chemicals accumulate in the body, which may cause chronic toxicity to the human body and even increase the risk of cancer.
Side effect 2: Bacteria multiply
In order to reduce costs, some inferior rice cookers use materials that are not resistant to high temperatures and easy to age to make the upper lid and sealing rubber ring. Due to poor materials, these devices are prone to breakage, leaving food debris and moisture trapped in them, providing a breeding ground for bacteria. Bacteria multiply rapidly in warm and humid environments and can produce harmful toxins that can further contaminate food and increase the risk of bacterial infection.
Side effect 3: There is a risk of fire
Inferior rice cookers tend to use low-quality wire and heat-generating chassis materials, which tend to soften at high temperatures, resulting in short-circuiting of the wiring or overheating of the heat-generating chassis. In addition, some low-quality rice cookers have poor temperature control systems that fail to accurately control the cooking temperature and time, resulting in uneven cooking or overheating of the rice, which may make the internal heating elements prone to excessive wear and tear or even burning, further increasing the risk of fire.
2. Be careful of inferior rice cooker slots!
Are rice cookers really practical? Poor rice cookers not only affect the cooking results, but may also have serious health risks. When choosing a rice cooker, it's important to choose carefully to ensure that you're buying a reliable and practical product. If you see the negative evaluation of the rice cooker in the picture below, you will know the harm of the negative impact of inferior rice cookers on us. Then I will also give you a detailed introduction to the possible slots of rice cookers.
Slot point 1, poor quality and durability
If the quality of the internal parts and materials of the rice cooker is not up to standard, such as the fragile and fragile material of the shell, the easy peeling of the inner coating, the uneven thermal conductivity of the heating chassis or the failure of the temperature control device, etc., the performance of the rice cooker will be unstable during operation, and the performance decay will be accelerated, thereby shortening the service life. To make matters worse, these problems can also lead to electrical safety hazards, such as short circuits, overheating, and even fires, posing a threat to home safety.
Slot point 2, the material safety is not guaranteed
Low-priced rice cookers often sacrifice material quality in order to reduce costs, using materials such as low-quality plastics. These materials are prone to release toxic and irritating substances during high-temperature heating, such as formaldehyde and other harmful substances, which will not only contaminate food, but also cause long-term harm to human health, such as increasing the risk of cancer and affecting respiratory health.
Slot 3: The food tastes bad
Cooking rice sandwich or paste pot is one of the common problems in the use of rice cookers, which is mainly related to the heating uniformity and temperature control accuracy of the rice cooker. If the heating elements of the rice cooker are unevenly distributed or the temperature control system is not accurate, it is easy to cause the rice to be heated unevenly, and the phenomenon of pinching or sticking will occur, which will affect the taste and nutritional value of the food.
Slot point 4, poor sealing performance of the pot lid
If the lid is not well sealed, it can cause dust and foreign objects to enter the inside of the rice cooker, contaminating the food and affecting the cooking results. In addition, poor sealing may also affect the thermal insulation performance and energy efficiency ratio of the rice cooker, increasing energy consumption and electricity bills.
Are rice cookers really practical? Nowadays, rice cooker brands are dazzling and uneven, and many inferior rice cookers have gradually entered everyone's field of vision, in order to ensure that you choose a high-quality rice cooker, according to the following evaluation chart, I want to share a high-quality brand for you.
Most users complain that the rice cooker has toxic and harmful carcinogens, uneven heating, and poor performance. Therefore, Gong Ling is the first to be recommended, it attaches great importance to fever performance and "non-toxic and safe", most brands can be sold if they meet the quality inspection requirements, and Gong Ling requires performance, non-toxic and other indicators must be five times higher than the standard, and the only one insists on maternal and infant food standards. Unlike many brands that sacrifice quality to do low prices, it is only the top performance of fever + original 4 fever performance technologies + 6 non-toxic and safe black technology + unconventional quality + 6 years of comprehensive performance anti-attenuation, etc., which is very top! Compared with many competing products in the industry, the heating speed is increased by more than 70%, the heating uniformity is increased by 93.6%, the harmful substances are reduced by 98.5%, the irritating odor is reduced by 97.9%, the heavy metal pollution is 0, and the core safety and non-toxicity, heating efficiency and other data have reached the industry performance Number 1!
Gongling's "best safety, non-toxicity, high performance" is the strongest in the industry, and it is as famous as the high-end series of Joyoung, Midea and other brands! It is often exported to Europe and the United States, and it is rare to be certified by the European Union and other countries, and is recommended by CCTV.
Gong Ling regards "non-toxic, safe and high performance" as the brand's lifelong pursuit, and has many years of experience in home appliance safety research and development. Never advertising and marketing, not engaging in appearance, gimmick function, saving money to invest in R&D and quality, and smashing the best performance configuration and ultimate safety. The R&D process of most brand products takes 2-4 months, while Gongling's product is dead for three or four years. Most brands have a large decline in performance for half a year, and Gong Ling has passed the 6-year anti-attenuation certification, and the deviation value of various indicators for more than 6 years does not exceed 0.1%, and many products use inferior and toxic materials for drilling quality inspection loopholes, only Gong Ling adheres to the principle of 3 30% elimination of metamorphosis level, which is extremely strict.
If you have a limited budget and want to buy an entry-level model, you can learn about Xiaomi and Midea, but don't have so high expectations for core performance, safety and non-toxicity. At the high-end price, you can learn about Toshiba, which has a relatively high appearance and exquisite design.
