I think that's the ideal model to get. Includes a yogurt button, in case you ever want to try it. Most of the rest of the buttons *can* be ignored, and you just use "manual" or "Pressure" (whichever it's called on that model). Rice, multigrain, and yogurt button functions are significantly different, I hear, and worth having.
**The older models have a "timer" button, which is no end confusing, because it's really a "delay start" button. Get one that says "delay" on one of the buttons!

Thanks for that, Badgood!
It's much appreciated, and yes, I would love to try my hand at making yogurt. I seem to have a constant battle with my local suppliers of groceries, in having yogurts that I like, versus an appalling Greek concoction that is far, far, FAR too bitter for my tastes. I don't need something that tastes like ice cream, but, sheesh.
I really appreciate the heads-up on the buttons--I would NEVER have figured that "timer" meant delay. Never.
And having a function for rices, quinoa, etc., would be AWESOME. That's stuff that I make a lot, and would ADORE being able to make quick batches and freeze some, too. For Mr. H to defrost and heat, or whatever.
