I would like to purchase a rice cooker that will handle brown rice. Does anyone have any recommendations for a rice cooker that works really well?

The only way I can cook brown rice so it is not a sticky mess is to put it in a frying pan with a tbls. Of olive oil coat the rice, then just saute it til it slightly changes color. Add the water and let it cook til tender. It comes out with each grain separate like when you cook basmati rice. I have tried several rice cookers from Asian markets. None work on brown rice unless you like the clumpy sticky rice. We go thru a brown bag of basmati rice from Costco every 3-4 months and have been trying to add more brown rice to our diet. I have not tried the brown basmati yet. That is next on my list. If it cooks up like the white, I will gladly switch. Lol
