I got this over a year ago,  it still works like the very first time.  This rice cooker makes 3 cups of rice. It is easy to use and to clean.  I like that I am able to make rice just for the kids.  It is small so it takes less space.  I eve made soup using this rice cooker.  I like the handles on the side.  I am able to transport dip for a party using this rice cooker.  This rice cooker has been used in so many different ways beside just for cooking rice.  Love it.
