      You can use them to steam vegs or make some gruels.

      Personally I don’t bother, but for people who eat rice daily it’s a game changer.

          Yes? You can have it at any time without it too though, but you could leave for example some oats and milk in the cooker while you dress yourself for the morning, and when you’re ready so is your gruel. (I did this once or twice when I had a rice cooker. It was okay.)

      I have used a cheapass no-controls except ‘on’ rice cooker to make a ton of meat and veggie dishes. All in one pot if you are cramped for space or tools.

      Rice on bottom, then veggies, then a chicken breast on top. Season, turn on, forget, come back and eat when it pops.

      The veggies end up a little overdone but using frozen veggies screws with the rice, so I just deal.
