I did the same but went with an instapot since it can do rice too and I hate one trick appliances. Started off with the tiny one and then realized I cooked dang near everything in there after a while.

While I normally agree, I make rice so much with other things, it would be a hindrance to have to use my multi use stuff just for rice all the time.

ricecookers arent a single task appliance. You can make a lot of other things in them.

I'm sure it's possible to cook other things depending on the model. A lot of the one's I ran across where more on/off/time basic ones though. Having a bunch of settings and other options is kind of a pre-req for something that I'm likely to have out as a permanent counter resident, so individual needs vary. Had an old oster kitchen center for a while that was great for that reason until the motor burned out.
