My wife and I received a Black & Decker rice cooker as a gift some time ago. We've had OK results with it but the teflon coated pot is starting to get easily scratched so it's making us weary.
In an effort to avoid teflon coating / aluminum I think the safest may be stainless steel so I've been looking at these:
Miracle Exclusives ME81Tatung TAC-06KN(UL)We have a preference for very simple [ie: push 1 button - doesn't even need a warmer function] - yet still premium quality to last a long time.
What do you guys think of these; And am I missing any competitors?
Edit: And another thing ...
Is there such a thing as "safe" rice cooker pots? There seems to be health issues with scratched Teflon, Aluminum, and ...
maybe stainless steel. I found a couple folks suggesting that the Chinese like to recycle steel used in medical applications so they may contain some radiation in them.... Makes me think a safer option would be to use a 20+ year old stainless steel pot made in the US.
