I know this is an expensive kitchen appliance but if you eat rice daily like my family, it's a must have. It keeps rice good, longer than any other rice cooker I have owned and the rice tastes great. I haven't used the other features on it, but it can be set to cook brown rice and GABA settings as well. If you only eat rice once a month, then I wouldn't bother with this because of the price.

So recently I have develop a love of rice! I have tried all the different ways of cooking and making rice. From using rice-a-roni to using uncle ben, to using a pan and water and anything else you can think of! Overall while they do cook it perfectly fine I have been not completely happy with the way it tastes and turns out. I can never get that perfect fluffiness that I get from eating rice out at nice restaurants. I did some research online and I keep on seeing people raving about rice cookers. I picked up a rice cooker and got the Zojirushi brand because it seems to be the most popular ad best brand. I can see oh my god the rice turns out perfectly and is so fluffy! Using the rice cooker is so easy and it's like the machine does all the work for me! I can finally have rice any time I want without the hassle!
