My current rice cooker "works" but is not optimal. Do you guys think I am crazy or would you drop $230 on a rice cooker?

I can't find it lower than $230 anywhere. I make 3 cups per day. It makes it perfect and can re-heat or keep warm for up to 13hrs according to the manufacturer but according to some reviews on Amazon people have ate it 5 days later. Would just make all of the carb portion of the meals really easy and convenient.

well if you make it that much then it's worth it... wouldn't get it if you only made rice once every two weeks

You can probably even slow cook oatmeal for hours at a time in it. Don't know if its a good idea or not, but sounds worth it.

Are you sure you eat 12C? I am talking 3C prepared.

If what you says is true you eat 3600 calories just from rice....!?
