5 out of 5 stars I'm so happy I found it in the US!   January 25, 2008

I owned the Japanese version of this rice cooker in Japan when I lived there, and I loved it! So much so, I seriously considered shipping it home, but the directions were in Japanese and I knew US outlets were a little different. I'm so happy though because now I can buy a version with English directions! When I used this in Japan, it was only to make steamed rice (mostly because I couldn't read the directions...) but it made the best rice I've ever had. It always came out perfect. I used to own a "standard" non-pressurized rice cooker in the US, but the rice was always too soggy or too dry. It also never succeeded in making "sticky" rice, and yes, I bought the right kind of rice.
The only complaint many people have, and what surprised me at first, is that it does take around 40 minutes to make plain, white rice. Aside from that, I can't think of anything bad to say. It's easy to clean, especially if you soak it first, and it's really easy to use. One thing to keep in mind is it only make about enough for a 4-5 person family when full, so if you have a big family, get a bigger rice cooker. For one person, it usually made enough for 2 servings when using the smallest amount possible, but I just refrigerated it. I would highly recommend this product to anyone interested in owning a nice pressurized rice cooker.



5 out of 5 stars Perfect Rice Cooker   January 19, 2008

I've owned some rice cookers in the past, but this one is the best one i've come across. Cooks rice perfectly everytime. I like that it is modern looking and not the typical rice cooker style. i've cooked brown and white rice and it does the best job i've seen. Highly recommend. Big buttons, subtle beep when finished, and perfect rice everytime.

5 out of 5 stars Remarkable machine-- Especially because of the timer   December 1, 2007

I never had a rice cooker before. I didn't think I needed one because we do not eat rice every day. HOWEVER: the reasons to buy this are: 1. It cooks perfect rice of any kind. 2. It has a TIMER, which means it can have steamed vegetables and rice ready when you get home(though the vegetables are vastly oversteamed unless you are there to watch them). 3. It can cook soup, beans, oatmeal, even meals with meat and vegetables because it has a slow cooker function. So: consider a unit that has both a STEAMER BASKET and a TIMER if you want your rice cooker to replace your slow cooker without a timer and your other steaming equipment.
