Unless you have a big family or are eating way too much rice/carbs, I recommend holding out for the 5.5 or maybe 3 cup version. It's easy to click and buy this, then have a giant rice cooker on your counter forever, or lug a giant rice cooker on and off the counter.\
......
That all said, does anyone know if the fancy expensive Zojirushis (or other brands) make passable sushi rice? All I need is 'decent' sushi rice. The fancy ones have a 'sushi' setting, but never heard anyone talk about the results, ever.

If you already have a rice cooker, just put slightly less water in there when you cook the rice for sushi. This prevents the rice from having excess water when you add the sugar and vinegar mixture.

I absolutely love my zojirushi rice cooker. It has fewer options, but there is something to say about simplicity. It must be 15 yrs old now. Still looks and acts like new. Use it 4-6 times a month. While it can cook almost anything, it is up to the human to be smart enough to alter the cook settings and water levels and soak times. For example, mine doesn't have a brown rice setting - crazy right - so I know to let it soak for 2 hours BEFORE the cook cycle starts and to adjust the water level. I have a chart on the fridge to handle the correlation for rice "cup" to water amount for each type of rice. The cooking bowl only has 2 lines - white rice and porridge.
Have a Cuisinart rice cooker/steamer that always, always, overflows when doing rice no matter how much I reduce the water levels. I use it for steaming and hard boiled eggs, which it does perfect every time.
I suspect any Asian-make rice cooker from an Asian market would be fine. Dated a girl who had one that looked 50 yrs old and it worked amazing for any sort of rice she made. Think I asked her about it ... she said $40.
