Pros & Cons
Pros
It consistently cooks rice to perfection. No more overcooked or undercooked rice. Cleanup takes 60 seconds.
Low profile allows you to keep this on the counter all the time. Makes fluffy white rice both on the quick setting and the regular setting. Zojirushi is a trusted brand in japan for generations. Purchased this to replace one that’s is about 5 years ol... Read More
The compact pot is easy to clean and easy to maintain. The retractable cord makes cleaning and cleaning easy. The non-stick inner pot makes cleaning a breeze. The keep-warm function is super convenient, and makes meal prep so much easier.
Cons
Lid always falls off due to rubber expanding during cooking so when you open the lid you burn your hand trying to pull off the inner lid. That works very well for awhile until the inner pot start having scratches. We never use metal utensils on any co... Read More
Rice texture comes out too hard or too mushy. Does not keep rice perfectly moist warm like my previous rice cooker.
Highlights
Quality
It’s good quality and makes perfect rice.
It consistently cooks rice to perfection and offers various settings for different grains and even cakes.
Follow the instructions and immediately when it is done fluff the rice and you cannot get wet and mushy, bad and sticky, or par... Read More
After a period of time the cooked rice yellows and hardens.
Price
Although expensive, it does a great job of cooking different kinds of rice.
I haven’t owned a nicer rice cooker before—i previously had a $20 one from walmart that burnt the bottom of my rice no matter what i did.
If you're paying near 200, you might as well get the neuro fuzzy logic white japan made model.
I got this on a sale, so the price was good.
Packaging/appearance
The renewed one is just in a different box but everything else is in a perfect condition.
Comes with a steam basket, though mine didn't come with the rice paddle holder, maybe because it's open box i believe.
Competitiveness
It is a bit pricier than some of the other similarly sized competitors, but it is miles above them in quality.
Some say that's not necessarily a bad thing, but they have other models made in japan that costs more.

If youre a family that needs rice on a daily basis but youre trying not to destroy your bank account with one of those really high end models and simultaneously trying to do better than the basic nofrills model this one might be for you

We need the basic nofrills one from zojirushi and the weight mechanism at the bottom started to glitch over time
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This is a known issue and you can remedy it by stacking coins on it until it works normally again but we opted instead to buy this one

Hi guys great product i am sure i know you all love it i unfortunately had the misfortune to not know this sooner and so i want to inform anyone who may encounter the same issue before purchase guys please make sure you think about your voltage the zojirushi has 120v i don’t know of every country but in europe it’s much higher and plus we have different plugs so i went for an adapter out of lack of better knowledge and when i plugged it it blew up inside it popped i don’t know we had no idea why i have been searching online and i see some people have had same issue please think about this when you buy from us since we can’t find this in europe or other continents don’t use adapter use converter or transformer
