Unless it's really bad, I haven't noticed too much of a difference between jasmine rice brands. And I'm Filipino. I've had a lot of rice in my life. I usually buy Asian Best with the elephant on the package since that's what my parents always got.

Same here within the brands, although some will be dirtier than others, after washing it clean it tastes about the same.

I usually end up getting the big 50# bags from Costco, either jasmine for medium grain or calrose for short grain.

One thing to keep in mind is that a lot of rice cookers aren't made, or at least don't have instructions for super long grain rices like basmati.

Ok, then I think I'll pull the trigger on one of these premium for-life rice cookers :) thanks
