Different designs, different volumes, different cooking methods, etc.

1. Different designs: Most rice cookers are spherical in shape, and the pot body can be turned over to form a depression for cooking, while the shape of rice cookers is square or right-angled. The thickness of the rice cooker's pot body is relatively uniform, and the surface of the inner pot is mostly made of stainless steel or uses uniform heating technology, while the rice cooker is designed with a thick pot. The thicker bottom of the pot will make the rice grains cooked and taste better.

2. Different volumes: The volume of rice cookers is generally between 1.8 liters and 3 liters, while the volume of electric rice cookers is generally more than 3 liters, so the amount of rice that can be cooked at one time will be more.

3. Different cooking methods: The cooking method of the electric rice cooker is simpler. You only need to pour water and rice into the inner pot according to the proportion, press the cooking button, and the rice is cooked. It will automatically keep warm afterward. The cooking method of the rice cooker is based on the principle of heat transfer, transferring the heat from the bottom of the pot through the thick bladder design, making the rice crispy and taste better.
