If I didn't already have an IP, I'd get this. But I'm pleased with the way my rice comes out using my IP. Thanks for the review!
The cup is the standard cup size of all Asian rice cookers. It equates to 3/4 of US cups.
You missed to mention one of the important features of the cooker. It is the carb reduction feature.
Just as a helpful hint, when cooking rice you have to use the measuring cup that comes with the rice cooker to measure the rice. Then you use the measure lines that are inside the rice pot to fill the water level. Example, if you are cooking 3 cups of rice, measure the rice with the plastic measuring cup that came with your rice cooker, then add the rice to the pot, then you will fill the water to the line marked with the number 3. You should not use a regular measuring cup to measure the rice or the water.
The numbers on the pot are the cup lines for the water, so if you use one cup using the measuring cup than you fill the water to that one cup line.
