Sunbeam Rice Perfect 5

Switch won't activate the cook function, stays on keep warm. When you flick the switch down the LED momentarily stays on cook then goes to keep warm. Only used a few times.

I've had this rice cooker for a couple of years and it's always been awful. The "warm" function leaves the rice all crusty, and the coating on the non-stick pot has flaked off constantly, despite using the plastic paddle that came with it. Half the...

Three weeks after purchasing this item, and approximately five uses, the motor burnt out. Yesterday, I returned it to the point of purchase for a replacement (absolutely not problems with the seller!) and this morning, the replacement rice cooker burnt...

Tried following the instructions to the 'T'. didn't work. Tried less water. Didn't work, tried more water, got rice glue out of the vent
