Sanyo ECJ-D100S Micom 10-Cup

Best Price: $109.00

traditionally i've shied away from that kind of meal because i hate being stuck in the house (i'm uncomfortable going out while the stove is on), so i'm looking forward to the flexibility that
from www.amazon.com
this is however not always bad as you can cook the whole meal using the rice cooker and you need not pay attention to it while it is cooking.
from www.amazon.com
however, a small family would probably be perfectly happy with the 5.5 cup model unless you make a day's worth of rice at a time and eat it two or three meals a day (which i know many families do).
from www.amazon.com
this cooker will also keep the rice warm for up to 12 hours, so in addition to making perfect rice, it takes the guesswork out of having to time the cooking of the rice to the rest of the meal.
from www.amazon.com
corn meal and grits - good - you really need to keep stuff like this in motion while it is coming to a boil and getting thick.

Sanyo ECJ-F50S

Best Price: $125.00

from www.amazon.com
overall, pricey, but worth it if you make a lot of meals with rice.
from www.amazon.com
the big pro is: you load it, push the button and walk away (or in my case get to cooking the rest of the meal).
from www.amazon.com
they do say that it will continue to be functional except for the clock - but that is one of my favorite features - being able to set 'done time' when i want to serve a meal.
from www.amazon.com
the size is just right for two...enough leftovers for a second meal.
from www.amazon.com
we usually make two cups of rice per meal and there is enough height remaining for me to place a 4-cup round pyrex bowl of some savory food to warm.
