My Sister gave me her National rice cooker that she received as a wedding present in 1976. She hardly used it so gave it to me and I have used it sparingly since then, but once a week in the last few years. It has never ever failed me. It cooks even 10 grain rice beautifully. (As long as I wash the rice first.)
Unfortunately I put the insert pot in the dishwasher and it has pitted quite a bit and being aluminum, I worry about it leaching into the rice.
I wish National was still around so I could get a new insert. All the new brands have terrible reviews.
