Never understood why you need a rice cooker. I use pic related. 1:2 rice to water ratio (in dl), cook for about 10-15 minutes and done.

You wash the rice, push a switch, and it makes perfect rice every single time as well as keeping it good for a whole day. Leaving you to do whatever the fuck you want all the while.
If you eat rice often using a pot becomes sort of tedious.

I use pic related, and it's been going strong for well over a decade. Zojirushi is a really good brand too.

A Tiger JNP-1000, I don't know why I said it like that.

Not sure I follow. Are you implying you can't do anything else while rice is cooking in the pot? If you're so for multitasking I'd imagine you'd appreciate a piece of equipment that can do more things than one.

I mostly eat rice and never found it to be tedious. If you put twice as much water as you put rice then the outcome will be perfect and the same every time. Only thing that changes is the amount of salt which can be hard to judge if you don't have a feel for it.
I don't really see how it's anything special that it keeps the rice good for a whole day since you can even put rice in the freezer and have it be good when you take it out (though you should really just prep as much as you eat in a short period of time so you don't have to worry about preserving it). It certainly doesn't go bad overnight in the fridge either and in some cases it actually gets better.

Personally, I like to wash dishes and clean while I cook rice.

Well, it's convenient pushing that switch and going off to do whatever you want and not have to worry about the rice at all. You can leave the house to get something, run to the store real quick, go for a jog then take a shower, and you don't have to worry about forgetting to turn down the heat or turning it off or whatever. If you have to go do something that ended up being a half an hour and 3 hours longer you'd be alright because it'd automatically would switch to "keep warm". There are times where I left rice there over night and it was still good to eat the next morning, you don't have to take it out to freeze or scoop it into some tupperware to stick in the fridge.
Push a switch, come back in ~25 minutes for perfectly cooked rice. Mine's a Jap rice cooker and has been going strong for over a decade and hasn't showed any signs of breaking down soon, but when it does I'll immediately buy another Japanese rice cooker.

>putting salt in rice
A rice cooker lets you just dump it in there and not worry about it burning or whatever. It also frees up a stove so you can cook something else at the same time.
