I am so happy with this product and wish I would've known about it years ago!
I work as a massage therapist in a space with absolutely no room for a microwave, and my workplace is very smell-sensitive. I got this to bring warm meals for my breaks -- I had gotten into the habit of buying fast food which was very expensive (not to mention unhealthy). Today I was able to eat homemade curry and now I am in love! I plugged it in a few hours before my break, and when I opened it, the food was steaming hot -- and the rice was not dry at all like leftover rice tends to be. I was also happy to discover there was virtually NO smell coming from it -- no one would be able to tell I had my lunch cooking in a hidden corner. I was only able to smell it if I put my nose literally right next to it.
Also important to note is that the earlier design that others have reported as a fire hazard seems to be resolved. My model came with a brace surrounding where the cord comes out of the appliance, protecting it from damage from bending.
