While I don't disagree with you that induction is better, induction rice cookers are typically 200-300. This is $50 and does a fairly good job.
I'm not enough of a rice snob to know about the supposed benefits of induction, but just want to mention that Costco is selling an induction rice cooker for $80.
I got their pressure induction rice cooker for over $300 6 years ago. Been using it at least once a week. The LED display is slightly broken but the cooker has been reliably great. This seems to be a steal at this price.
I call BS on the entire "you don't know what you are missing" retort.. probably more than 90% of Asians that eat rice, and totally outnumber the electric rice cooking snobs with their microchips, prepare it via standard boil and simmer methods on a stovetop. So save the "rice tastes better in device X vs device Y".

Interesting.
My East Asian family and Asian friends all use electric rice cookers. I really can't think of a single Asian person I know that uses a stovetop for rice.
I do notice that electric rice cookers are mostly made in Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and China. Is it possible that stovetop rice cooking is an Indian/South Asian thing?
I can attest to the idea of the Japanese (Panasonic) rice cookers being the best many years ago. Unfortunately, it's not the same anymore in 2023. Many makers outsource the production to factories in China which is fine for the most part but it definitely is not the same as 15-20 years ago when things were all made in Japan. One of the biggest problems with chinese made panasonic was that the rice didn't stay fresh for more than a 1/2 day (smelled literally like some old rag). This happened with 3 different chinese made rice cookers in the past. So I just stick to the korean made nowadays.
I currently use Cuckoo 3-400$ one. It's been fairly consistent for the past 5 years, no problems whatsoever. I'm not a rice snob but we do eat them every day pretty much. I'd pick one up for 50 if you don't have one. Seems like a good deal.

Rice cookers were invented for convenience.. not taste.
Most rice eating populations in South East Asia (and not in the US), ie India, Pakistan,Middle-east, Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia,Thailand etc etc (let me throw Africa in there too as rice is grown there), prepare rice on a stovetop.
A lot of Indian households use a pressure cooker as you can often multitask in it.. cook rice and vegetables in separate racks.

There are literally 2.5 billion people in Asia, so your statistic really means nothing. Even if your stats are correct that's 250 million people with electric cookers.
Anyone that can afford an electric rice cooker has one, because cooking rice in a pan is a tremendous PITA.
It's like churning butter. Why the heck would you do it if you didn't have to?

If it's a Cuckoo and isn't made in Korea, I'm not buying it.
If it's a Mitsubishi, Tiger, Zojirushi, etc. and isn't made in Japan, I'm not buying it.
If it's a Reishunger, and isn't made somewhere in the EU, I'm not buying it.
I might as well get some shit American brand that's been outsourced.
Or, I might as well get a Tatung, since it's a Chinese brand.
Why do these companies outsource their manufacturing?
First, it puts more money in their pockets, and second, it'll get them access to the Chinese marketplace.
What's in it for you? Often, there's nothing in it for you!
Lastly, we use the simple made in Japan Tiger.

Always wondered what the difference between a cheap rice cooker and expensive one is. I have a cheap Aroma and the rice seems fine to me. Maybe I don't know what I'm missing?
When the inner pot is at good thickness and able to transfer heat equally through out the entire inner bowl, the rice puffs up way fluffier. More expensive ones could be better at keeping the heat in as well, so when you live it inside for ex: overnight, rice wouldn't dry out, ect. Obviously, there is other things but I'm not here to write a whole paragraph on good rice cooker 😂. Anywoo, if cooking rice is something someone does a lot in their cooking routine, I think it is worth it to get a good rice cooker, it really makes a difference.

From someone who eats rice daily. I also used Aroma rice cooker mainly because of cost is less compared to Cuckoo, Zojirushi and Tiger brand. I am currently using Tiger rice cooker and I now can say that the way rice is cooked is better, the rice will last longer and not spoil as quick as when using Aroma and my Aroma rice cooker stopped working after a year of daily use. My Tiger rice cooker is more durable so it does cost more but it last longer so investment is worth it.
Agree. I'm still using my 10 cup Neuro Fuzzy Z that I got roughly 14 years ago. That's with heavy use of about 4-5 times a week. This Japan made "spaceship" still cooks rice perfectly just like the day I bought it! You can't sway me to buy another brand TBH.
