 I have a question for you -- how do you stay so regular eating all that rice?  It's very, uh, binding -- if you know what I mean, and I think you do....
My grandmother swears by hers (she makes a lot of rice too), but my husband makes it the old-fashioned way* (rice is a staple of his native culture's cuisine -- he makes it almost daily) and was not too keen on the one my grandmother gave him as a gift.  I don't know the brand -- if you're serious, I'll find out for you.
*His mother is also a die-hard, old-fashiond-method cook (and a good one at that!).  We were staying at my in-laws vacation apartment, and the babysitter/housekeeper was looking for the coffee maker -- and when I showed her the "old sock" coffee drainer apparatus (that was all the rage 75 years ago...), she nearly fell over.  She tried to hide her shock by saying, "Oh, that's the really ancient method" (bad translation -- it sounded less condescending in her native language).
