We're in the middle of a big kitchen remodel and have been stymied by (of all things!) the kitchen faucet decision.

As a result, I find myself querying the hive mind looking for people who have this style faucet. [more inside]

I wish to end my barbaric method of cooking rice in a saucepan. I'm stuck between the Zojirushi NS-LAC05, NS-ZCC10, and NS-TGC10. I've checked the product comparisons.

What in the world is this "Rinse-Free" and "Sweet Rice" settings, and will I miss them? Is "Cake" decent? Why is picking a rice cooker so complicated? [more inside]
