Query: Worked fine for a year, then died.

We had this product for about 1.5 years where we had no real problems with the unit. It cooked adequately without much problems and very uniformly. However, one day we plugged it in and had no power to the unit.There are no instructions for trying to fix the unit by yourself or solve this problem. The manual focuses on problems with food preparation using the unit, but has no instructions for overall power failure, so the only recourse you have is to throw it away and purchase another rice cooker.Compared to my old rice cooker I've had since graduate school (10+ years now), not very reliable.
