Title: Rice cooker makes it more complicated to cook rice?
Review: My reason for buying a rice cooker was to simplify my life. This cooker made more of a mess, and it took longer to cook the rice than if I had just done it in a saucepan. The lid is too small, so water oozes out the top and steam escapes. I'm not sure I understand why the directions insist that you soak the rice for 30 minutes, and then, they say nothing about how long different kinds of rice might need to cook. I also get frustrated when instructions for several different models are combined, so you have to look for footnotes to see if a certain instruction applies to the model you purchased.I will try it one more time before I chuck it, but I'm disappointed in Panasonic. The name used to mean quality, but this is not a quality appliance.
