Zojirushi NS-LAC05XT Micom 3-Cup Rice Cooker and Warmer, Black and Stainless Steel

I have the same usual story of woe; used a cheap, awful rice maker with a glass lid for years, had to deal with an awful mess anytime I just wanted a side of rice. I finally gave in and ordered this 3-cup rice cooker after doing a lot of research. It's as great as everyone says! It was just delivered this afternoon, and I've already pulled it out and cooked up some rice. It was so simple, I didn't even bother reading the instructions. The truly fantastic thing about it was, I was able to go run an errand that suddenly came up without worrying about leaving it sitting. When I got home, a *perfectly* cooked serving of rice was waiting for me. It is quite expensive, and I debated buying it because I'm moving to Japan next year. But I have absolutely no problem with spending the measely $20 to send it on over to myself. Admittedly, I am only one person, and never cook for more than 4, but I can't see this rice cooker failing to deliver for a small family of average eaters. I only made one cup (smaller than the '1 cup' we use in cooking), and it made a full bowl of rice. This is the first time I've ever bothered writing a review for anything--but I simply had to, because I am SO impressed. I would reccomend this cooker to anyone who loves eating lots of quality rice. :) - Customer Reviews
