Pros & Cons
Pros
One of my absolutely most trustworthy kitchen items. The piece was reasonably priced and arrived quickly. Either one works really. This product is the best and is worth every penny!
The rice cooker is just pretty. It's not hefty when lifted, even with cooked rice in it. The rice always comes out perfect and fluffy.
Cleaning is a breeze. The round metal underneath the lid can easily be lifted and washed. The removable section under the lid makes for quick cleaning.
Measure the water and rice using the clear cup included with the rice maker. Add the water to the corresponding marked liquid line on the container. Once it’s done, i use the handy rice spatula that has its own hook on the machine.
Cons
Even i cooled off for many hours, the message is still there and the cooker is not working. Get a different zojirushi model. Was troublesome. Now it turns off randomly during cook cycle, trips my breaker.
Reviewer is very disappointed with the quality of the zojirushi rice cooker. Lid crack is not only cosmetic but affects the functionality of the unit. Poor quality disposable products.
It's a purchase i regret. The z warranty is useless.
Jasmine rice becomes wet, soggy, yellow and smelly after it was cooked 24 hours. Nothing prevents the rice from spoiling with in 12 hours now and sometimes even sooner. Time to try a cuckoo.

For regular long grain rice, this cooker takes like twice as long as my basic, 10 year old, one click rice cooker.
Since we make rice 2-4 times a week, that means it's made over 2,000 batches of rice.
Price
Worth the price if you are into having good rice with easy prep.
I bought a $1000 vacuum cleaner a few years back, and my wife still makes fun of me when i do 80% of our vacuuming with a $100 push vacuum.
If you stretched the price out over the twenty years of life it gave me, it cost less than a dollar a month.
I know the price is high, and yes, my husband said, "ouch!
Shipping
It arrived in a timely manner and was well packed.
Packaging/appearance
The rice cooker arrived in double packaging, ensuring there was no damage.
Competitiveness
While more expensive than other rice makers, you can definitely tell the difference with this one.
We had a head to head “rice off” challenge between this rice cooker and an $80 competitor model.
I have bought different brands, and none come even close to the zojirushi.
I did my research before purchasing and went on a youtube quest to check in with all the reviews and competitors.
