Globe 25 Cup (12.5 Cup Raw) RC1 Rice Cooker / Warmer - 1440W

After a few weeks using it, I can say it cooks nicely. The non-stick insert is great! The insert can still get gunked up though, so we use rice nets, which make washing a breeze. The biggest disappointment -- the reason for my giving 4 instead of 5 stars -- is there's no on/off switch. The only way to power it completely down is by unplugging it, which sucks because the outlet for this unit is located way back behind a heavy soup/sandwich prep refrigerator. There is some kind of switch in the bottom of the unit that automatically gets depressed with the weight of the insert and top. But it doesn't fully power the unit down. Even without any weight on that switch, the warming light stays on and the heating element stays warm. This unit definitely needs a manual on/off switch. Now I'm going to have to go out to buy some kind of extension cord with a foot switch on it. :(

Takes the guess work out of cooking rice and oatmeal. Just follow the directions and forget it. When the item is done cooking it automatically goes to warm. Easy to clean with just soap and water, don't put it in the dishwasher wash by hand and only use soft clothes otherwise will get scratched and stuff will stick and burn,
