Cooking rice in a rice cooker takes a little longer than when you cook it in a pan. In general it takes about 25 minutes for your rice to be ready when you use the rice cooker, if you make for more people then it also increases to about 30 minutes. If steaming the rice then it should take about 20-30 minutes, so about as long as your rice cooker normally uses.
Using the rice cooker is actually quite simple. You put in the right amount of water for your rice, the rice and press the button. Now all you have to do is wait for the rice to be ready. That's how easy it is to use a rice cooker. To make it even easier, most rice cookers have different cooking programs.
