I am VERY pleased with our Zojirushi water boiler - (a water boiler is a must for any Asian household these days, much like a rice cooker.) When visiting Japan, I noticed almost all the Ryokan we stayed in had Zojirushi brand water boilers in the rooms too.
We used to have a "Tiger" brand water boiler, but it decided to spontaneously dispense large amounts of boiling water at random times (with no human touching it) - very unacceptable.
Cheapo rice cookers from other brands have not given us grief, though. We even sent an old/small but still functional unit to college with our elder daughter.
