That looks fucking amazing. Which means I'd probably use it twice, then shove it in the back of the cupboard.

You're better off getting a small cheap rice cooker and a little slow cooker from Argos.
I've used the thing shown here. It's a bit of a jack-of-all-trades. Not great.
Rice cookers are fucking amazing though. Well worth it. Chuck in rice and water, plug it in, and it's perfect. Saves a hell of a lot of hassle.

This is a normal post So all you have to do is know, and suddenly no draining is required, is that what you’re saying?

Half a cup of rice. One cup of water. Cover and simmer until the water is gone.

Piss.

Easy.

This is a normal post Wrong
Depends on the rice.

1 cup basmati, 1 & 3/4 cups water. Also rinsing is necessary.

A good rice cooker is fantasic and every house has one here (China). Many reasons:

Everyone easts a fuckton of rice
No kitchen has more than 2 rings to cook on, so frees one up.
The slow cooking of the rice is better for short grain. (48 mins vs the 12 mins in the pan). There is a fast mode no one uses.
No rinsing
Doesn't need watching
Never burns
Keeps cooked rice warm at a safe temperature

Also they can steam, boil, casserole, congee, reheat and keep rice warm safely for 12 hours, and I've even managed sous vide in one.

Just because you have an opinion, it doesn't make it right.

Says the guy who only slightly alters the proportions of rice and water, then proceeds to describe using specialised equipment instead of a fucking saucepan like everyone has.

This is a normal post Do you boil water in a pan to make a cup of tea?
Do you make toast by putting the bread under a grill?

Toast made under a gas grill is better.

This is a normal post 1 cup rice 1.25 cups water
put in pan with lid on high heat

set timer for 6 minutes, when timer goes off, turn off the heat

set a timer for another 14 minutes then fluff rice with a fork

perfect rice. Now you know.

If anyone needs to buy a device to make that process easier they should just buy take away food and be done with it.

Even with the 'labour saving' device, you have to measure the rice, measure the water, put it in the pot, turn on the cooker, and then press go.

Literally, the only step it saves you is to turn off the heat after 6 minutes.

Agreed. Pan, 1 x rice 1.5 x water. Cook gently until water just absorbed and then leave for 10 minutes covered to finish cooking.
How can you make it any simpler?
