Rice recomendation

I think your mom is probably thinking that teflon rice cookers are similar to teflon frying pans, and that the teflon will eventually come off and render the pan useless. But they aren't the same. Rice cookers don't get as hot, and they don't undergo the same kind of scraping that frying pans go through during stir frying.

So I'd recommend that she go with Teflon if she's willing to make a change. Teflon is awesome; you can scoop the rice as soon as the timer pops and nothing will stick on the bottom. This means less waste and easier cleaning.

I've tried a lot of rice cookers, and I have to agree with Ellen--Zojirushi is by far the best brand.
