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.
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?
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.
