Capacity and operation
The Sunpentown SC-1201S prepares up to 12 cups of cooked rice, equivalent to 1.2 L, using a 500 W heating element. A single button controls the entire cycle, making it straightforward for households that want consistent results without multiple settings. The non-stick inner pot simplifies serving and cleaning after each use.
Sustained cooking behaviour
The cooker runs at its rated power until the rice absorbs the water, then automatically switches to a keep-warm mode that holds temperature for up to 12 hours. This transition prevents overcooking during extended holding periods and suits meals that are served in stages rather than all at once. The air-tight glass lid retains moisture throughout both phases.
Thermals and power in normal use
During active cooking the unit draws 500 W at 120 V, 60 Hz, and the exterior remains cool to the touch thanks to insulated walls. Once in keep-warm mode the power demand drops sharply while the stainless steel body and tight lid limit heat loss. The compact 10.60-inch cube footprint and 5.50 lb weight keep countertop impact minimal.

Questions about this item
How much electricity does the 500 W cooker draw during a long cooking cycle?
It runs at 500 W on a 120 V 60 Hz supply, so a full cycle uses roughly 0.5 kWh per hour of active cooking.
What kitchen outlet and counter space are needed before using the SC-1201S?
A standard 120 V 60 Hz socket and a 10.6-inch square footprint with 10.6 inches of vertical clearance.
Will the 12-cup capacity and glass lid work well with my older stainless steel utensils?
The non-stick inner pot resists metal tools, but wooden or silicone utensils are safer; the tempered glass lid lets you check progress without lifting.
