Makes great rice and bread!
When I saw it had a bread baking function, I was curious. I didn't expect a whole lot but I figured if the bread baking isn't great, I'd always have an oven anyway. So I took the chance.

I just used frozen bread dough (the one with 3 loaves in a bag). 1 loaf was a bit too big so I pinched off the end to make it smaller.
after 90 minutes I opened the lid it was all the way to the top. I then flip it over to brown the other side. Now the instruction says after 40 minutes you have to punch it down. Well, I didn't because I didn't hear the buzzer. But since it baked fine, I don't even bother to punch it down. It bakes fine without doing so. I used Pizza dough. What's great is that for a quick loaf, it won't heat up the whole kitchen. It doesn't use unnecessary eletricity(or gas) because you don't have to turn on the big oven. When we decide to have Italian, I just pop one piece of thawed dough. By the time the dinner is ready, bread is done. It doesn't produce dark crust, instead, it comes out with very light crust. Inside is so soft like steamed bun. It is so yummy. I also tried sweet roll dough with cinnamon, currant and sugar. It was great, too. I'm sure you can get really creative.

And by the way, it also cooks great rice, too. I used to own Zojirushi and I believe Sanyo cooks better rice than that. Not that Zojirushi is bad, it was an older model. This rice cooker's inner bowl is much thicker so that might be why....
Anyway, I am so glad I bought this.

Good Rice Cooker
I've had this rice cooker for about a month. In that time I've used it 8-10 times. So far the quality of this product is very good -- I've had no problems at all. It has a solid and well built feel to it.

This appliance is very easy to use. Unless you're programming it for a later start, you simply pour in the appropriate amounts of rice and water, select the kind of rice from the menu button, and press the start button. That's it. I usually prepare white Jasmine rice, and cook time is roughly 45 minutes. I used to be able to cook this rice on the stove top in roughly 25 minutes, so at first I was a bit concerned about the longer cook time. However, it's turned out to work just fine. The value of a rice cooker like this Sanyo is that you can put in the rice & water, turn it on and walk away. When preparing on the stove top, I couldn't leave it unattended. So now when I come home from work, I can get the rice started and then go walk the dogs or begin prepping the rest of the meal. It's really convenient. The keep warm function is also helpful. If I'm not done with the other elements of the meal, it automatically switches into the keep warm mode until I'm ready.

The quality and taste of the rice is excellent. While I was happy with the rice I prepared on the stove, I think this is better. Clean up is very easy. It is truly a non-stick pot. I simply wash the removable inner pot and inner lid in warm sudsy water and wipe down the rice cooker. It's really easy and quick.

I would recommend this to anyone who is looking at a rice cooker. This model (ECJ-S35S) can cook up to 3-1/2 "cups" of uncooked rice, which is plenty for my wife and me. If you have a bigger family, you may want to consider a larger capacity model -- especially since the price is not too much different.

This is our second Sanyo rice cooker and we love it!!! If you want a very very good Japanese style rice cooker, this is the one for you!! You can set the timer for when you want the rice to be done and it is! Easy cleaning, easy use, can't ask for more!
