Pros & Cons
Pros
This bowl is for the zojirushi rice maker which makes perfect rice. I love this rice maker and use it to make giant pancakes, mac 'n cheese, french toast casserole. Exact duplicate of original ns-lac05 bowl.
Cons
For some reason, these seem to start to discolor and chip after just 2 years or so. They are hu-hum from a longevity and product quality standpoint. And then it's really shamelessly overpriced, come on.
Highlights
Quality
It is a perfect replacement of our old one which was a bit scratched after 7 years of good service.
I like that the bowl is built sturdy like the original bowl.

A bit pricey (1 star down) but worth it if you would rather replace than put up with the pitting/eroding non-stick surface.
I mean you can get, say, an instant pot (electronic pressure cooker) for less than this item and the extra bowls for that cost ~$15.
You can get this for twenty bucks less directly from zojirushi web site, shipping included, but it is still too expensive.
Packaging/appearance
The point of view in the photo makes this look like it wouldn't fit our rice cooker - but it did fit!
Competitiveness
It would seem that the seller knows there are no other options and is getting as much as possible for the product, which is unfortunate.
I bought it but i'm already looking to find alternative to zijirushi brand .
I do wish the price on the replacement bowl was lower than $60, because it made better sense to purchase another zojirushi.

A few notes about the nonstick surface the important thing for protecting it is not so much the material that comes in contact with it but the smoothness of it
