It's a good rice cooker. Only used it a few times. One thing that really annoy me about the design of the rice cooker is the fact that the power cable comes out of the side of the cooker rather than the back so when it's on your kitchen work top (which it is all the time now) you see the cable sticking out of the side which looks ugly and as a result it takes up more space than it should. Just poor design. Oh, and they have used high tack glue for the warning sticker on the top which despite numerous attempts at scrubbing, the glue will not come off. Do now there is a glue shaped rectangle on the top which looks messy. Again, poor design.
