This is a very high quality rice cooker made in Korea. People in China actually travel to Korea to get these rice cookers. It keeps the rice fresh for at least three days. Keeps it warm and fresh, so that you don't have to cook rice or waste any leftovers. Bought for over 1000rmb in Korea. I am movi so I must be rid of it. I had it out for 500rmb last week, but now it is at 300rmb. A great deal, if you know any homemakers in Asia, they will tell you two brands, Cukoo and Cuchen, the best in the world.
