Cons: It doesn't cook everything else and it's not self-cleaning.

Review: I went to a local Asian superstore, T&T Supermarket, and had a nice chat with one of the store workers about rice cookers. I was looking at the Tiger 3 cup model, which was $139.00 (Canadian). He showed me the Sanyo, which was $39.00. I said, what's ...

Pros: It is used for many different things.

Cons: none

If you are...

Pros: Easy to use, rice comes out perfect.

Cons: Delicate surface, tricky to clean.

Pros: perfect rice

Cons: alumimun cooker

Cons: Non-stick coating in cooked rice, can't cook rice and steam veggies at same time

The Bottom Line: Use it if you can avoid scratching the bottom.
