I just buy this rice cooker , my first by the way , from target last Friday so I have only have it for about 5 day at the time of this review . be that as it may , I have use it 3 time already and each time my rice have come out perfect each and every time . I have not have any sticking or burning on the bottom at all but I have also make sure that I rinse my rice properly too so I do not know if that be the key to some of the other people review that say they have have that happen to they . so far I have only use Jasmine rice but look forward to try some brown rice in the near future and have a good feeling that it will also turn out great . I do love the little plastic water catcher that fit in the back of the cooker that catch any water that collect on the lid when you open it , genius .
