You use two finger latches to pop out the metal plate in the lid, with the seal and steam release, and it clicks back in when you're done. Rinsing and drying it takes about ten seconds.
You can open the steam release itself by turning the housing about 1/8 turn, although you don't need to clean it out nearly as often (unless you often forget to rinse your rice and it boils over). Once every few months is probably fine. I didn't even know you could open and clean it for a long time, and it wasn't gross inside.
I own and use both. As several other posters have said, rice cookers work much better for rice, especially "Micom" (computer controlled) rice cookers like this one. The Instant Pot is a great pressure cooker, and I use it for that all the time, but it's only OK for making rice.
This Cuckoo has the same features, which I agree are great! The difference between it and a Zojirushi is marginal. This wasn't the case 15+ years ago: Zojirushi used to be the only company that understood how to make Micom rice cookers. But Cuckoo, Buffalo, and Tiger seem to have also figured it out over the years.
The reason this cooker is much cheaper than Cuckoo's other cookers is that it's made in China, not South Korea.
One advantage of this cooker is that it uses a standard IEC 3-prong electrical cord, so if you need a longer cord, you can buy one.
Thanks for the upvotes and rep, everyone! I've been really happy with mine. I've cooked plenty of rice on the stove and with the cheaper clicky-switch kind, and the rice from a Micom cooker really does come out better.
They're kinda idiot proof. As long as the water fill isn't drastically off, it will take care of the rest.
It will safely keep the rice at temp for hours without detriment to quality. I'll often throw the rice in over lunch, so it's ready whenever I decide to make dinner. This is especially useful when I'm making something quick to cook like stir fry or grilling. If takes me < 10 minutes to cook, but I wait until I start cooking to make the rice, everything else has to wait. I've even put the rice on before heading to the office in the morning, so it's ready to go as soon as I get home from work.
* My experience is with a Zojirushi my wife and I received as a wedding gift 13+ years ago. It was a pretty expensive and advanced model a the time. I don't know if it applies to cheaper models like this, or if advances to technology have made cheaper models as good or better?
