Panasonic Rice Cookers

I don't know what the other reviewer was doing wrong but my oatmeal came outstanding and the brown rice come out equally well. A very easy to use rice cooker with many advanced features that the Zojirushi does not have. I paid $180 dollar Zojiushi that played Mozart when the rice was done and died shortly after one year(along with a Zojirushi bread maker); I think I will stick with Panasonic which are more dependable especially having using them for the last 20 years with no problem, just great rice

I can't really say anything about this rice cooker. I like that it has other modes because not everything cooks at the same time as rice. There is an option brown rice and even rice porridge. Well worth the money and I will probably order it again if the one I have right now breaks. Also the design it is fantastic, with the press of a button the lid opens and stays open.

Love this rice cooker! I use it to cook white rice all the time and everytime it cooked perfect. Also use it to steam vegis and sometimes pork purse and the steaming function is great.

Easy to clean as well, the non-stick area's coating is much better than some cheap $20 rice cooker, as long as you don't use abrasive cleaning cloth it won't scratch.

The steaming basket is included though, I don't know why someone in the review didn't get it in their package, maybe it was a opened item.
