Coating is peeling away.
The most beautiful rice cooker with the best features but the taste is no as good as other brands

– No Sushi rice option

The peeling inner pot is not uncommon as the fluorine coating could peel easily. Read the below article for more details on how to preserve the inner pot for a longer time!

The micom rice cookers have the heat source at the bottom of the rice cooker. The advantage of the micom rice cookers are the light weight and the affordable price.

The micom rice cookers are not suitable for making a large batch of rice as the heating source is located at the bottom. It does not cook rice evenly due to this reason.

If you need to cook a large batch of rice regularly, the IH (Induction Heating) rice cookers are recommended. The below article explains 3 different types of rice cookers.
