As the title says. I have an older black and decker rice cooker. It’s been working ok but it always burns the bottom. Does anybody here have a brand they recommend?

I lost my rice cooker years ago when it does and switched to the instant pot for versatility. I’ve come to the point where I do pot-in-pot rice, and it comes out perfectly every time. A couple cups of water and a trivet, then a bowl with the 1:1 water:rice plus a tab of butter on the rice setting. Takes a bit but no complaints in my household.
We also use the IP for rice. I’m Korean, and my wife is Indian, so we go through a LOT of rice. It works well.
I also use an instant pot for cooking rice. It works great, but I have to set the time manually because the pre-set rice setting overcooks my rice.
I use the mini-instant pot, the regular one is just way too big unless you’re trying to feed a family of five.
It is nice to reduce the number of kitchen appliances I “need”. Instead of a pressure cooker and a rice cooker, I just have a pressure cooker and use it to cook rice.
Edit: I should also add that apparently instant pot went bankrupt, so you might not be able to find one or replacement parts ever again? Maybe?
