  • The last rice cooker you'll ever buy, probably
Size: 5.5 cups Style: Rice Cooker
Purchased in June 2016, used at least weekly since then (often 3-5 times a week) Before I say anything else, a note about cooking rice - RINSE YOUR RICE, PEOPLE. IT'S IN THE DIRECTIONS AND IT'S CRUCIAL FOR GOOD RICE. Fit & Finish: - Despite the shell being mostly plastic, this rice cooker feels a bit luxe and everything is nice and tight. The super shiny plastic is extremely easy to wipe down whenever it gets dirty. - The retractable power cord is an amazing feature, such a creature comfort. It works just like it did when we got it, albeit slightly slower now. I've never had a problem with getting it to go in the direction I needed. - The lid and hinge mech is solid and easy to use, just one big button to release. An interesting thing to note is the hinge only opens just beyond far enough for the rice pan to be insertable into the machine, so if it didn't pop up all the way and your hands are full, you'll need to use an elbow to nudge it the rest of the way open. My solution is to just pop it open and make sure it's fully open before I start doing anything else. - The handle is light and plastic but has not cracked at any point, not even the joints. This was something I was worried about since the unit feels like it could be an issue, but I kinda swing this thing around when moving it in/out of my pantry, and it's still totally solid. Product in use: - The user interface (buttons and screen) is intuitive, easy to use, and there are no seams between the buttons for any water ingress. The buttons on my unit haven't even started to wear down after 7 years. - As far as functions go, I only really ever use the White or Quick rice features - I don't eat brown rice at home, and haven't felt the need to use any of the other ones. I've also never used the timer feature as I am not the best planner. But this thing sure does make the most perfectly cooked rice every single time. It's honestly kind of rough having such high quality, easy to cook, white rice at home, and then go out to eat and the rice you're eating is just mushy and overcooked or gummy. This thing spoils you. --- A note about Quick Rice - I have found that the quicker cook time /can/ lead to slightly tackier/gummier rice if you open the lid as soon as the cycle ends. I would give it a few extra minutes to steam out before opening and the rice will be almost as perfect as the regular cycle. - Volume of rice cooked - I don't think I have ever maxed this thing out, but I have gotten close. What is MORE impressive, is that I can cook 1 single 'cup'** (**OF THE CUP THEY GIVE YOU TO MEASURE THAT CORRESPONDS TO THE LINES IN THE RICE PAN, WHICH IS ACTUALLY 3/4 CUP) of rice and it comes out just as perfect as if I cooked rice for 6 people. This amount of rice has never been short of enough for one meal for two adults. On quick rice, this amount cooks in like...15 minutes? And on White it'll start at 50, but will actually skip a few and be done in 25min or so. Summary: I thought for sure that $130 (at my time of purchase) was a bit overkill for a rice cooker, but I will 1000% buy another one of these whenever my current unit dies, if that ever happens. I thought 7 years was a good run (< $20/year for perfect rice at home?!) so any more time after this is just a big bonus. 10/10, and 10/10 with rice. ... show more

  • 150lbs of rice cooked in 4 years and still going
Size: 10 cups Style: Rice Cooker
I purchased the Zojirushi rice cooker November 2022. Since then it has perfectly cooked over 150 pounds of rice for our family of 5. Mostly it cooks white sushi rice but I have slowly started to cook brown rice as well. Its only cook 10 pounds of brown rice. It cooks effortlessly, my youngest at 8 can safely and confidently cook amazing sticky rice as she calls it. The price is the price! If you want perfectly cook rice buy it! Ive owned several rice cookers from box stores that are cheap junk. The Zojirushi rice cooker is hands down the last you will buy. Its super simple to use, extremely easy to clean and most of all my 8 year old can make perfect sushi rice. We are Texas ranching family, beef, rice and vegetables are a staple in our home. It takes 60 minutes to cook, so start it while you're preparing your meal. Once it chimes, its done cooking and automatically goes into keep warm. It can keep warm for hours and can even do an extended warm for hours. ... show more

  • I had heard this was the "Cadillac" of rice cookers..I'd agree!
Size: 10 cups Style: Rice Cooker
Last year in August I decided I wanted to lose weight so I changed my diet and decided to include wild rice. I am a fan of Uncle Roger (if you don't know who he is look him up on youtube..he's hilarious) and all his talk of rice cookers made me want to invest in one. I heard that this model was the "Cadillac" of rice cookers so I took a chance and I do not regret it. I've had it 10 months now and never had a problem. It's mega easy to use. It comes with a little plastic cup. If you use two cups of rice you fill the water to the labeled second line of the type of rice you are making. Then you close the lid and press the menu button until the arrow lands on the rice type you are making then you press the start button and go do something else until it's done. Personally, I always use a little more water so I go a line higher but that's me. I've never had an issue and cleaning the metal container inside is super easy. My rice always comes out perfect. I use the Rice cooker all the time and in 8 months I lost 20lbs eating Japanese portion bowls of rice and a piece of salmon or a baked chicken thigh. I'd highly recommend this item. ... show more

  • Finally pushed the button and I'm so glad
Size: 5.5 cups Style: Rice Cooker
I've been fascinated by the Zojirushi rice cooker since I saw it at a friend's house a few years ago. That's right, years. I had every excuse to avoid buying one. I can cook rice on the stove in a regular pot. I can use my Instant Pot, so why have a dedicated rice cooker? I'm not sure I need this much technology to cook rice, right? Most of all, why spend so much, when there are $20 rice cookers on the market? But the Zojirushi remained on my mind. So did my overcooked, split rice that I always forgot on the stove. I finally decided to order it, and just see if I liked it. I'm so happy I did! Zojirushi lives up to its reputation. I usually make jasmine rice or brown rice, and sometimes Nishiki rice (for sushi; it has a lot of starch and sticks together easily). This machine makes each type of rice perfectly, and then keeps it warm at the right temperature so it doesn't dry out or overcook. It has a reheat function that quickly brings rice up to its keep-warm temp once again. (It's ideally for after the keep-warm setting turns off, but I've put leftover rice from the refrigerator in with a couple tablespoons of water and it had no problem reheating.) I really like the retractable power cord, perfect for small kitchens with multiple appliances. It's very compact and the design is beautiful. There's a detachable piece to hold your rice spoon on either side of the cooker. The markings on the interior bowl are easy to read. I was fascinated by the huge instruction manual, which goes into far more detail about rice, types of rice, old rice vs. new rice, mixed rice ... you name it. Fortunately you don't have to memorize all of that to get good results. Just follow the quick start instructions, press the big friendly orange button, enjoy the startup music (twinkle, twinkle, little star) and go watch TV. In about an hour, you've got perfect rice. ... show more

  • This rice cooker is the best!
Size: 5.5 cups Style: Rice Cooker
I love this rice cooker! The UI was super simple, especially when you reference the handbook. 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. The rice does take a long time to cook, about 65 minutes, but this hasn’t been an issue for me. I just wash the rice put it on when I get home, which takes less than 5 minutes, and let it cook while I get into my comfy clothes and prep the rest of dinner. It always comes out soft, perfect, and with separated grains. I haven’t tested the quick-cook function out yet, or the oatmeal option, but it’s so amazing for rice. It’s very easy to clean. Since this was definitely a splurge purchase for me, I was very concerned with having to keep it clean and dry so that it doesn’t begin tarnishing on me. Cleaning it is super easy since the pot is nonstick and nothing sticks to the plastic spatula. You just pull out the metal lid piece, super easy to wash, the rice basket, and the paddle. Takes no more than 5 minutes to wash by hand. I haven’t experienced any water leakage, and the machine’s size and handle make it very easy to pick up and move around my counter. It’s lightweight without feeling cheap or flimsy. I have a 5.5 cup capacity machine and it easily feeds around 4-5 adults. If you have a larger rice portion with your meals, I’d say it feeds 3-4. Gone are my days of cooking rice in stainless steel pots on the stove—this Zojirushi really does pay for itself. I’m eating rice at least twice a day now, it’s just so convenient and so nice to use and clean up. The praise and recommendation the Zojirushi brand receives isn’t for no reason. It truly is worth the coin. ... show more

  • Restaurant quality rice with near-zero effort
Size: 5.5 cups Style: Rice Cooker
I'm extremely happy with this rice cooker, and I was very surprised by the difference in quality of the rice. It handily beats both cooking it on the stove top, and cooking it in my Instant Pot. It is not without fault, but I can live with the minor flaws given how good the resulting rice is. For reference, I made rice using standard tap water and Tamanishiki premium short grain white rice. I rinsed and drained the rice six times before cooking, and I am cooking at high altitude (~5,500 feet). Pros: --Rice made in this cooker comes out perfectly cooked every time. It is fluffy and sticky, comes out of the cooker easily, and is great for eating with chopsticks. It is just like high quality rice served at restaurants. When using quality short grain rice, it produces rice that is exactly like what I've had in Japan. --The non-stick inner pot is easy to remove and clean. Unlike cooking in the stove-top or in my Instant Pot, I don't need to soak the cooking vessel before cleaning, as there's no rice and very little film left after cooking. --The cooker comes with an internal reel that winds up the power cord for easy storage. I missed this in the product description, so it was a very nice surprise. --The inner pot is marked with water levels for various amounts of uncooked rice. This is surprisingly handy. --The clock is battery powered, so it doesn't lose the time when unplugged. This is a really nice little touch. --Operation of the device is dead simple. --The cooker can hold prepared rice for later use for a surprisingly long time. I've tested it as far as 12 hours after preparation, and it was just as good as it was freshly made, complete with a little plume of steam when opened. Cons: --The cooker cannot hold the included scoop, paddle, and steamer basket inside itself all at the same time for storage. It can, however, hold the scoop and the paddle if you store the steamer basket separately. This is a big benefit to the Instant Pot, which can hold its power cord, trivets, ladle, and rice paddle inside itself when stored. (Note that I have the 5.5-cup model. The larger version may be able to do this.) --The manual says that the cooker can make batches as small as 0.5 cups rice, but the internal pot is only marked for water levels for as low as 1.0 cup uncooked rice. If you want to make a small batch, you must do the water measurement yourself (the amounts are given in a provided manual insert). This could have been avoided with extra lines inside the pot, which would have been so easy to add. --When this cooker refers to a "cup" of rice, it means the included scoop, not a standard US cup. This refers to a Japanese standard for a serving of uncooked rice (about 2/3rds US standard cup). This isn't that much of a drawback, but it is important to keep in mind. Don't lose that scoop! --The cooking cycle takes about an hour, four times longer than standard rice cooking. This is because the cooking cycle incorporates soaking and steaming time, though, so it is worth it. --The manual says that it is designed for medium and short-grain rice, but does include substitute water measurements for long-grain. Keep in mind that if you want to cook long-grain, you can't use the marks inside the cooking vessel to measure the water. Conclusion: If you're considering this device and reading reviews, then you're probably like me in that you're wondering if the results are really worth the hype. I think they absolutely are. Now that I have this cooker, there's no reason at all for me to cook rice any other way. The results simply aren't in the same league as stove-top or Instant Pot rice cooking. Only you can decide if that's worth the price of admission, but I can recommend the device wholeheartedly. My only points of dissatisfaction with this device are minor quibbles and nitpicks. It does its job supremely well, and I'm completely satisfied with my purchase. Updates: 2020-01-20 - I've revisited this review to correct an error I made about accessory storage in the original version. I incorrectly stated that the scoop and paddle couldn't be stored inside the cooker, even with the steamer basket removed. That was incorrect. In fact, the scoop and paddle can be stored inside with the basket removed, but all three cannot be stored inside at the same time. Since writing this review, this cooker has become one of my favorite appliances. The cons I listed in my review all feel like extremely minor quibbles. now. I wanted to change my score to five stars, since I love this thing so dang much, but I think it is still appropriate to keep it at four for the drawbacks, minor as they are. This cooker is on my short list of appliances that I would replace immediately should they fail. ... show more

  • 5 Stars
Size: 5.5 cups Style: Rice Cooker
My husband and I previously owned a rice cooker we had owned for years (I can't remember the brand). I decided to upgrade to this machine since I wanted to get it as a gift for my husband and it was on sale at the time. This product cooks rice amazing! We normally cook long grain white rice so I was used to using the same amount of water as rice in our old cooker. The other one took maybe 30 minutes at the most to cook the rice but even if I checked on it often and stirred the rice, it would stick to the bottom of the bowl. With this machine, it takes 65 minutes to cook long grain white rice (I make a big batch of it) and it turns out perfect every single time, even when I was accidentally using the wrong amount of water (for 4 cups of rice, it takes 5 cups of water). The little provided measuring cup is perfect for this (for the measuring lines in the bowl, the water is at the 4 cup line). I like that this machine plays a tune when it is finished cooking (so I know exactly when it's done). The machine keeps the rice hot for a long time after it is turned off so it's perfect if you don't want to eat it right away. It also comes with a handy spatula for stirring the rice and serving it. I am very happy that I purchased this and would definitely purchase another one in the future. This is also incredibly easy to clean. I haven't used the machine to cook anything except rice but I like that it comes with a steamer for veggies. My only downside is the book the machine came with isn't clear on the amount of water to use for rice (which is why I was using the wrong amount) but their website is very clear on how much to use with the kind of rice. Also, I had assumed long grain white rice was to be cooked on the white rice setting but it is actually supposed to be on the Mixed Rice setting. Despite using the wrong amount of water and the wrong setting, this machine has smart technology to still cook it properly. The rice turned out great but turns out amazing when you use the correct setting and water amount. ... show more

I only use this to cook white rice. The rice has come out good. It takes longer than normal though: an hour for each batch regardless of the amount. You can choose a faster way which will take 40 minutes. I like it so far.
