I loved my automatic rice cooker, but I have given it up for a new love - The Pressure Cooker, in my case from Instant Pot. It does as good or better of a job as my rice cooker, but about 33% faster, and has several other useful functions. It's better at steaming dumplings; With the trivet set they also sell that's perfectly sized I can make a meal's worth of dumplings in twenty minutes with zero effort. The Instant Pot recipe Pulled Pork is almost as good as my local BBQ place, and it cooks in an hour.
On the other hand, one of my friends has a Zojirushi rice cooker, and swears by it. He describes making perfectly fluffy and buttery rice every time.

- imp0cat 2y agoIt's true though. Another great thing is that the IP will have regular white rice done much faster (~15 minutes for perfect rice).

- stephenr 2y ago> He describes making perfectly fluffy and buttery rice If your rice is buttery I think they're doing something wrong.
- Suppafly 2y agoYeah, buttery seems at odds with fluffy, unless you're describing a croissant.
- pessimizer 2y agoWhat if you want rice with your dumplings or pulled pork...?

- kjellsbells 2y agoMy parents had a traditional pressure cooker that was both intimidating (they convinced me it could blow up any moment) and useless for recipes when I asked them how to cook things. "Oh, just cook it for two whistles" Two what? Instant Pot was sooo much easier. Safety interlock, unambiguous timer, much better.
