Design and Build Quality

The Supor Mini 2L has a clean, rounded design with a white plastic exterior and a stainless steel trim ring. The lid opens with a one-touch button on the top and stays in place at a 90° angle. The control panel features a simple membrane keypad with buttons for menu, timer, and cooking start. The display shows the selected program, remaining cook time, and delay timer setting.

The inner pot is the star of the build — a thick 1.5mm aluminum alloy base with a high-quality non-stick coating that genuinely releases rice without sticking. The pot has measurement marks on the inside for water levels corresponding to different rice amounts. The included steam basket is a simple plastic tray that fits above the inner pot for steaming vegetables or dumplings while rice cooks.

At 2.1 kg, it’s light enough to move around easily. The compact footprint means it fits on crowded countertops or in small cabinets. The power cord is a reasonable 90cm and stores in a base compartment.

“I bought this for my dorm room and it’s perfect. Makes just enough rice for me for 2-3 meals. The porridge function is great for breakfast — I set the delay timer before bed and wake up to hot congee. The non-stick pot makes cleanup easy with just a rinse. Can’t recommend enough for students.” — JD.com user, verified purchase

Performance

The Supor Mini delivers surprisingly good rice for its size. The fuzzy logic system adjusts cooking temperature and time based on rice type and quantity. White rice comes out fluffy with individual grains separated. Brown rice requires the dedicated program which extends cooking time to about 40 minutes but produces properly cooked grains.

Porridge/congee mode produces creamy, well-cooked porridge in about 30-40 minutes — a favorite feature among users. The soup and steam modes are basic but functional. The slow cook function simmers soups and stews over 2-3 hours. The cake function works for simple steamed cakes, though results are basic.

The keep-warm function maintains rice at serving temperature after cooking, but unlike the Xiaomi Mijia, there’s no timer display showing how long the rice has been warming. Users report the rice stays good for 6-8 hours before quality degrades.

“The rice quality from this small cooker is excellent. I’ve made jasmine, basmati, and short-grain sushi rice — all come out perfect. The porridge function is my favorite: 30 minutes and I have silky white congee. For ¥159, this does everything I need from a rice cooker.” — JD.com user

User Reviews by Theme

Perfect Portion Size

“As someone living alone, this is the ideal size. I cook 1 cup of rice and it lasts me 2 meals. No wasted rice, no giant cooker taking up half my counter. The small footprint is a huge plus in my tiny Shanghai kitchen.” — JD.com user

💡 Summary: The 2L capacity is perfectly suited for 1-2 person households — no space or food waste.

Non-Stick Performance

“After 8 months of daily use, the non-stick coating is still perfect. Rice releases cleanly with just a plastic rice paddle. Soaking doesn’t leave residue. Much better than my previous rice cooker where rice would cake on the bottom.” — JD.com user

💡 Summary: The non-stick inner pot holds up well with proper care over extended use.

Versatility

“I use this for way more than rice. The steam basket lets me cook dumplings on top while rice cooks below — one-pot meals in under 30 minutes. The porridge and soup functions get regular use too. A really versatile little cooker.” — JD.com user

💡 Summary: Beyond rice, the cooker handles porridge, soup, steaming, and even simple cakes.

Capacity Limitation

“When friends come over, I have to cook rice in batches. Max capacity is about 4 cups of uncooked rice, which serves 3-4 people as a side. For entertaining, a 3L or larger cooker would be better. But perfect for my daily needs.” — JD.com user

💡 Summary: Capacity is adequate for daily use but limits entertaining and larger gatherings.

Purchase Recommendations

✅ Worth Buying: Singles, couples, students, and anyone living in small apartments. The 2L size is ideal for daily use without waste, and the cooking quality rivals larger rice cookers.

💰 Premium Pick: For IH full-surround heating and a larger 3L capacity with 24h keep-warm timer display, the Xiaomi Mijia Rice Cooker 3L at ¥299 ($41) is worth the upgrade.

⚠️ Budget Warning: If you regularly cook for 3+ people, skip the 2L and go for a 3-4L model. Batch cooking for this size gets tedious.
