The rice cooker is well designed. It has a resilient stainless steel construction and a glass lid with a steam vent to keep moisture inside of the cooker, whilst preventing it from boiling over. One feature of particular interest is the keep warm function which keeps your food up to temperature, letting you serve hot food when you need it.
