I bought this item to cook vegetables and fish. I have not been disappointed. Works great. Great flavor, easy cleanup, start it up and walk away. The steam mode does a good job. I have cooked rice once with it. The plastic tray cleans easier than an aluminum steamer tray used on the cheaper models. I have lost 40 lbs by cooking healthy meals with this steamer. The autmomatic mode is nice because I can start it , and come back in 30 mnutes and I am ready to eat. I now have 2 steamers, one for veggies(mostly green beans/brocoli), and the other for fish (cod/flounder/salmon). The fish is moist and flakey, mostly using frozen cod fillets. This larger size is recommended for non-rice cooking, because the space is needed. I highly recommend this item for convenient - healthy - meals.

I was a die-hard Zojirushi fan (and still am, really) but when I had to buy a new rice cooker, I just couldn't stand the thought of paying all that money, especially since I wanted a model that made a bunch of rice, so I decided to give this a try. I have to say, I have been very pleasantly surprised. Everyone in my family thinks the rice is really pretty good, I LOVE that I can steam with it - does a nice job with buns and dumplings (baozi are great in this). Easy to clean and pretty quick.
The saute and simmer feature is pretty neat - to make good flavored rice I actually sauteed some onions in butter right IN the rice cooker, then I put in my rice and chicken broth and spices, then set the rice cooker to "white rice" to cook.
If you are looking for a very versatile rice cooker, are thinking about trying a rice cooker for the first time, or want something that steams as well, this is definitely a good purchase.

I bought this rice cooker for my wife, she loves rice and wanted the rice to be just like we get all the restaurants that we eat at. We live in Tokyo Japan and the rice turns out just like the industrial restaurant rice cookers we normally get when we go out. It is pretty fast and rice comes out consistent. Great product.
