This is a super high quality product, on par with the finest kitchen gadgets available. So if you simply like fine things, it will please you. Even the hefty titanium-clad bowl is a joy to behold.
This machine is designed for easy living. It's smaller than you might think from the pictures. I have handbags that would grab more counter space. However, if you have *no* counter space to spare, the self-retracting cord and bail handle are your friends. Just pick it up and stow it with no fuss. The built in battery keeps the time.
It makes extremely good rice because: 1) It ... Read More

It cooks very well - soft and firm, and tastes very good. I'm very satisfied.
Rating: - Amazing Rice - Horrible Service!
The rice is great but don't expect any service.
I lost a part after I already assigned 5 stars so I am adding this so everyone is aware. I would reduce to 3 stars based on my experience with Sanyo Service.
Be careful with all the parts. You will not be able to find a replacement. Sanyo Service is useless. They are more interested in closing service questions than in resolving them. A small part from the inside of the lid fell off and got lost while cleaning. I have contacted the Sanyo Serice who said to contact the parts centers. The parts centers have no record of ...
