If you are cooking brown rice you only need a simple rinse to reduce pesticide and any debris. You won't get much in the way of sticky starch since the bran is still encapsulating the kernel. It will have a natural nutty flavor and very little in the way of sticking (unless over cooked).
If you are cooking American "enriched" white rice you should NOT rinse it. That cloudiness is more than white rice starch from processing. It includes additional nutrients the USDA recommends for folks not eating a balanced diet. Usually it includes: Thiamine (B1), Niacin (B3), Folic acid (B9), Vitamin B6, Iron, Zinc, Selenium.
If in doubt look at the packaging to see if it is no rinse enriched (adding what was removed) or fortified (adding more than what was there). You should avoid using parboiled rice as that has already been cooked once and is best done on the stovetop.

But for transporting and keeping food for a potluck warm, making porridge, steaming dumplings or custards.. this dude handles it.
Gotta say though that it started cooking rice unevenly and not keeping it fresh for days after the 2 year mark, hence the Cuckoo
I been meaning to upgrade my Zojirushi for years now to the new fancier model but the old one i bought 9 years ago just refuse to break and is running perfect like i just bought it.
Had it for years with no problems (sushi rice and medium grain rice for teppanyaki), had just started steaming food with it last year. Sometimes, especially when I cooked like 7+ cups, the bottom like 1cm layer of rice would be mushy. I'm guessing this means I didn't rinse the rice enough?
Will check country of manufacture tomorrow.

It's the only machine I've seen that has handles attached to the bowl and a retractable cord. These were on top of things like having a detachable lid, a top that doesn't open with such force that it can knock the machine over like the 3 Cuckoos I tried and being made in Japan. To Cuckoo's credit, some models from them did have a cool exclusive feature- having a sloped channel and a little removable reservoir on the back that collects liquid that drops when the lid opens.
Though it didn't have as many cool features, my second choice would have been the $70 (in store at Costco) Tiger that's also made in Japan, has a steamer basket and cooks great rice. The only feature I'm really surprised this model lacks is a lid that detaches for cleaning. Every other model I tried did. I figured if this really became an issue, I could always return it to Costco.
Honestly all of the machines worked well but I stuck with the Zojirushi for their impeccable reputation and the number of reviews I've read about machines lasting 20+ years. If mine lasts anywhere near that long, it will end up being more economical since I shouldn't have to replace it every 5-7 years (some even said only 1!) like a lot of Cuckoos. There's definitely a reason why Zoji has maintained a 4.8 out of over 11K reviews.

Hate to burst your Zojirushi bubble, but this model is made in China. Clearly stated on Zojirushi website.

Zojirushi is the better known Japanese brand, but Cuckoo is an up and coming South Korean brand and folks that have it seem happy with them.
That implies this rice cooker is made in Japan. It is clearly stated on their website it is made in China.
