I know this will be a popular response, but I don’t get it.

I just use a pot and the rice is always perfect? Not hard at all? Am I just good?

I used to do that for years, but rice cookers really do some magic to get perfectly fluffy rice. I thought my technique was good, until I tried rice from a rice cooker.

Meanwhile, I've been disappointed by rice cooker rice and make it better the old fashioned way. :shrug:

You should look into Zojirushi. They make the best rice cookers

Yeah just add however many cups of rice and then add water to the specified line. Don’t need to do any of that finger bullshit to check water levels

And by cup I mean the cup that comes with the rice cooker not sure how it corresponds to the actual unit of measurement
