I have own many rice cooker over the year . this one , by far , make the best rice , consistently . Easy to use , easy to clean . and i love that you can cook as little as one cup at a time ! the only drawback here be the darn thing doesnt display how much time be leave . sure it will turn off when it be do , so no worry there . but once i turn it on , i be curious after a while : do we have 20 more minute ? half hour ? 10 minute ? it start click down the minute leave to cook about 10 before hand -- no sooner . why not just click down from the beginning ??
