I buy this rice cooker to replace we old one which just stop work : -rrb- I choose it because it get great review . it cook rice perfectly and the rice never stick to the pot like we old rice cooker . the size -lrb- small-ish -rrb- be great for we small kitchen and perfect for we family of 3 . I like the stainless steel look also and the silly tune that it play when you turn it on and off . one thing i do not like - it seem a little slow .
