Editorial Review:
This 10-cup Sanyo rice cooker and warmer is micro-computerized with multi-menu selections that allow you to make various kinds of rice. With it (and its fuzzy-logic controls and temperature settings) you can make white rice, rinse-free rice, mixed rice, sweet rice, sprouted brown rice, quick-cooking rice, brown rice and porridge. Use it, too, for steaming or slow-cooking soups and stews. The Sanyo micom rice cooker and warmer has a Titanium-coated, extra-thick, nonstick inner pot with a rounded bottom for maximum heat distribution. The inner pot also features a water fill line for rinse-free rice and sprouted brown rice. After cooking is complete, a Keep Warm function automatically kicks in to keep your dish warm until you're ready to serve. On the front of the Sanyo micom rice cooker and warmer is a clock and timer. The LCD clock and 24-hour, preset timer let you set it and go. The Cook/Reheat button keeps your rice in a keep-warm mode; it can be reheated in about five minutes and served as if it were freshly cooked. Included with your Sanyo micro-computerized rice cooker and warmer is a steaming tray for vegetables, a measuring cup, nonstick spatula and a multi-language instructional manual with recipes. A retractable cord keeps counters neat and the cord out of the way.

definitely my most favorite kitchen appliance!
My family is korean so the idea of using a rice cooker is not new to me. My mom got me this rice cooker and I love it! I love the pot inside, it is nice and durable - I've had mine for 4 years, through college, and it's still like new with no scratches or burns. I love the handle and retractable cord cause it becomes very portable and I can just take it to a picnic or for a potluck dinner without disturbing the contents. I also like the programming functions, and it makes it pretty fool-proof with the... more info
NO chemical smell ever!
This is my third rice cooker and by far the best albeit the most expensive. I cooked brown rice perfectly on my first try! There was never any smell except the wonderful smell of rice cooking-similar to bread baking that waft through my kitchen. It REALLY kept the rice hot to warm for a couple of hours without drying it out at a dinner party buffet. Another plus was that it was a snap to clean since there was no boiling over experience that I had w/ my other 2 rice cookers. I also found the carry handle a... more info
Very nice, if not inexpensive
Always wanted to try one of these and finally got one. First of all, after a simple soap/water wash before using there was no chemical odor, even on first use, as some others have reported. None. The only odor was a pleasant cooked rice odor. Have used it for un-washed white rice. It takes 40 minutes to cook 2 cups (dry) rice to perfection...slow. Texture is uch better than the boiling water rice steamer that we had been using (and that was highly rated by Consumer Reports). Keep warm feature is... more info
Not the best
This machine is a real disappointment. I know it's half the cost of the Zojirushi's, but I'd say it's also half the quality. When I first saw that this has a sprouted rice setting, I got all excited thinking it was the same as the GABA rice setting on the Zojirushi IH cooker, which heats the rice at 104 degrees for 2 hours before cooking so that it begins to sprout, and makes a much healthier brown rice. Well, the first thing I noticed about the Sanyo is you have to sprout the rice BEFORE putting it into... more info
