Anyone actually use the oatmeal setting on their Aroma rice cooker?

50 minutes for oatmeal is insane. I could cook and eat oatmeal and do the dishes in that time.

Setting it for 50 minutes and then walking away from the aroma rice cooker is the point of these buttons. You set it before you go to the shower and when it comes out its ready.
 
Has anyone tried adding ingredients during the cooking cycle? For instance I know that rice usually comes with a lid lock so would oatmeal setting allow for opening the lid during the cooking cycle?

The lid does not lock on aroma rice cookers. You can open the lid whenever you want. I add raisins to the oats at the beginning of the cycle and nuts towards the end.
