Panasonic SR-G10G 5.5-Cup (Uncooked) Automatic Rice Cooker, White

Good rice cooker if you know the trick
I bought this rice cooker 2 months ago.(after having a problem with my old nonstick rice cooker) The reason I chose this one because I don't like Taflon nonstick surface. It'd come off no matter how you took good care of it. So far, I'm very pleased with it.

I'm an Asain who eat rice everyday. I cooked as little as 2 cup or as much as 5 cup (full capacity). I never had any experience about rice stick in the bottom of the pot. However, you have to know the trick. Every time you cook rice, you have to let it stand in the pot for at least 10 to 15 minutes (after the cook button change to warm button) before taking rice out of the pot, as a result, rice will never stick. And for this price ($26.99), it's very worth my money for having perfect rice in every meal. Clean up is very easy, just soak the inner pot for several minutes before cleaning.

Good Little Rice Cooker
Size is perfect for 2 to 4 people, and cooks rice very nicely. And its true what another reviewer said - let the rice rest for 10 mins after cooking and it wont stick. I prefer to unplug it and not have the warm feature. I have cooked white and brown with this rice cooker and have obtained good results. Just be sure to adjust amount of water depending on the type of rice you are cooking.

Cleaning is easy. Couple of ergonomic things I dont like: the handles are really dinky, and the cooking pot has a very shallow lip (unlike my old 20-year National which this replaced). Also power cord is permanently attached which can be awkward for storing.

All in all, price is right!

Great cooker for those who want to eat rice without Teflon bits !!!!
Several reviewers have commented saying they don't like it because it does not have non stick surface but has only aluminum pot. This cooker is for those who want to eat rice without TEFLON bits peeled off and mixed with rice. Those Teflon bits are toxins and can hurt one's body in the long run. Yes, it is harder to clean than non-stick surface but healthier.
