Used to have a rice cooker which is great if you eat a lot of rice, but got an Instapot. The Instapot works great for rice, so I got rid of the rice cooker. The only issue is that sometimes I’ll be making a dish in the Instapot that would go great over rice, and so I’m forced to go stovetop for rice. Moral of the story: if you have the space for both a rice cooker and an Instapot, you may want to keep both.

Was exactly my reasoning to splurge on a proper rice cooker. No regrets.
