rice never burns or sticks to the sides/bottom like when using a pot. i make rice daily and cleaning rice stuck to the bottom can get pretty annoying.
with the rice cooker, i just measure the water and rice for the portion i want, press a button, and wait. it can keep rice warm throughout the day (aka perfect for me) and cleaning it is super easy cus like 3-5 grains stick to it and that's it.

it can also do slow cooking and steaming which is cool, cus a lot of times i wanna heat up chili i made then froze, or steam some broccoli and not have to worry about using the stove/pans/the full sized slow cooker.

it's pretty great cus i can basically pick my food for that day, whether its rice or chili, or whatever. put it in the rice cooker, and then i have hot food waiting for me whenever i get hungry.
i originally bought it when i had an office job, and would just fill it at home and bring it with me to work, but now i just use it at home as a "do everything in small portions" type of thing.

I don't know what you're doing, but I never have rice stick to my regular stainless steel pot. Maybe you're not using enough water in the regular pot. A regular pot likely takes more water since more of the water gets boiled away.
