Right now, however, the market for rice cookers not made in China is pretty inflated. If buying new, this is probably the best bang for buck model available.

Tiger's 5.5 cup Micom rice cooker is a solid midrange pick for making consistently good rice, with smart logic, reliable keep warm performance, and easy everyday use. It handles rice well when the water ratio is dialed in, and the nonstick or ceramic inner pot is generally easy to clean. The main drawbacks are the hard to read water indicators and the non removable inner lid, steam cap, and vent parts, which make cleaning less convenient. It feels like a dependable step up from basic cookers without reaching premium price territory.
The cooker can produce excellent rice when the water-to-rice ratio is dialed in correctly.
The inner pot can be removable and easy to wash for routine maintenance.
The automatic logic can help prevent sticking or burning when cooking rice.
The keep-warm feature can keep rice usable for quite a while after cooking.
The water level indicators can be hard to see because they are grey and may require a flashlight.
The inner lid and steam cap are not removable, which can make cleaning and buildup management difficult.
The non-removable lid and steam vent seals can get gross over time and may not be easy to clean.
The steam function can work intermittently, which can limit consistent steaming performance.
