Up until now I've always cooked rice in a pot over a gas flame, like some kind of savage. And actually it doesn't turn out bad, I've used Ken Hom's absorption method since about 1991 and no complaints from the family so far, barring some discarded rice occasionally when the quantities / temperature were maybe a bit off. But I am hearing really good things from other home cooks about rice cookers. Namely that you get guaranteed perfection every time no matter the quantity, that you can even prepare ahead of time and have it ready and hot for when the main meal is ready (or when you get in from work), that they have other uses (porage, soups, slow cook dishes), and that the rice texture is always better than you can do in a pan, even for a competent cook.
Do any CycleChatters use a rice cooker? Any thoughts on what brand, features etc? The main one I'm considering is Yum Asia's "Sakura" but I'm interested to hear about others.
