Date: 2004-11-29 | Rating: 5 Cars, or new ones, anyway, should be able to do one thing: move people from one place to another. If it can't do that, it's not a car, and I find it reasonable to expect my car to do it. Of course, I have the choice of riding around in a Geo Metro, or in a Porsche, but at their core, they do the same thing. Similarly, I believe that any rice cooker, not just a 150 dollar rice cooker, should produce well-cooked rice every time it's used. Common sense tells me that manufacturers test these things hundreds of times before putting them into production, and so by the time it's on my counter, it should be pretty much foolproof. Reality doesn't agree with me, however. For four years, I've tried 6 or 7 different rice cookers with varied success. The type of rice that I make, sticky Japanese rice, is part of the problem. Most rice cookers in the United States are designed for long-grain, non-sticky rice, and so most US brands (e.g. Rival, Faberware, etc.) produce dry and/or unevenly cooked calrose rice. The only success I had in the past was an old Panasonic rice cooker, inherited from my father. Sadly, I damaged the bowl about a year ago, and it stopped working. After that, I tried making rice on the stove, but measuring out the water and rice to the same level every time frustrated me. I had heard about fuzzy logic rice cookers a number of years ago, and, after working in an appliance store for a few months, I decided to buy one about two weeks ago. It works, and works well. Although I haven't tried out the timer function, and I'm a little wary to put any piece of my $150 rice cooker into the dishwasher, I give it my recommendation. If you need a general rice cooker that adapts well to any kind of rice you put in it and have 150 bucks to spare, invest in this product. There are a few other brands of fuzzy logic rice cookers out there, and I imagine that they all do the job and do it well. I've sold comparable products to my customers, and I've only heard praise for them. The Panasonic/National brand was the cheapest I could find, and it works just fine for me. So, in short, If you're shopping for a new one, skip the Geo and get the Porsche; skip the cheap stuff, and put your money into something that does the job right. Works extremely well for me Date: 2006-10-25 | Rating: 5 I've been using this rice cooker for quite a while, mainly to cook oat groats on the "porridge" setting. They take a while to cook, so if your mornings are hurried, I would definitely set them up the night before and use the timer to start them an hour before you awake. The cooker will keep them warm quite well. (1/3 cup oat groats, 1 cup of water for one person, with the result being more like a cooked grain than traditional oatmeal.) The brown rice setting doesn't do "keep warm", as the manual says: you need to take that out when done. I've had no problem with the cooking pot chipping, but I use only the plastic spatula that came with it to dip stuff out, or a nylon spoon: no metal. And I wash the cooking pot (removeable, nonstick) by hand: very easy, very quick. The steamer function is not worth the effort: tends to overcook. The risotto recipes I done have worked great. (I got "The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook," which has many good recipes.) Happy, happy! Date: 2010-01-04 | Rating: 5 I bought this cooker about a year ago and have been very, very pleased. It does what we need, when we need it - no problems. The timer was easy to figure out and has been such a boon for our family. We wake up to oatmeal, perfectly cooked! I totally reccommend this rice cooker. Another reviewer has experienced a chipping problem concerning the basin. We ONLY use the platic spoon provided. I, too, am sensitive to my family eating any non-stick coating pieces and will update this review if we see a problem. The inside pot get chipped easily Date: 2004-12-28 | Rating: 2 The most important part of choosing a rice cooker is to pick one that has a good quality inside pot because if this 'non-stick coated inner pan' chiped, you are so not going to keep using it since you will worry if you will eat that 'chips' with rice. Sure this cooker works for me for about 3 years, but right after one year, the inner pan began to chip. I have two other neighbors who also bought this one and have chipped inner pan. They just told me to ignore it. But after reading a few healthy related articles, I decide to throw this $100 rice cooker away and buy another one. I can't risk my family's health on $100. I got a new one from Sanyo which cost around $90 for 5 cups. I especially did research on their inner pan. Apparently their pan has special technology on coating so it should has no problem. I will see. But from the look, I can tell that Sanyo's inner pan has better quality. If you plan to spend $100 on rice cooker, you should either try Sanyo or Zojirushi. Also you can get a better deal at Chinese grocery store (I mean big ones). The only problem at Chinese store is you have to exchange in 7 days not 30 days, and you can't return if you used it. I bought both of my rice cookers at chinese store and they did not have any problems. | |||||

This was the one I selected, primarily due to its ability to make five different styles of rice (porridge, sushi, ordinary, shorter cooked ordinary, and brown. I really didn't need all the capacity. Normally I make 1 to 3 cups. This was a year and a half ago, so the machine cost almost twice as much as it does now. I was delighted with it, and it is still doing regular duty. For most purposes you select how you want the rice cooked. Press start, and walk away. Come back in about an hour, and everything is just perfect. I have since mastered its ability to set customized cooking times and have been making everything from Rice-a-Roni to chicken curry. I really would hate to be without it. It's still four times what a cheap cooker costs, but I think you will find the difference worth it in the long run. going fast-glad I got one Date: 2006-01-04 | Rating: 5 I have been wanting a fuzzy logic rice cooker for some time and decided to get one of these. It looks like they may be about to be discontinued as the price keeps going down and Panasonic is not coming out with a newer model to compete with the newer Zojirushi's. I bought it because I like Panasonic and the price was right. This is a nice 5 cup model with regular rice, quick, reheat, porridge, and steam functions. It comes with a nice steam basket and measuring cup. So far, it have had nothing but perfect rice in it, although the wait is a little longer than the traditional old style cookers. It is easy to clean with no removable parts. The bowel is roomy and nonstick. It is a traditional white enclosed design that is more compact than the picture looks. I think I got a good deal on a fuzzy logic cooker from a well-thought-of company. Get one while you can! Great rice cooker! Date: 2005-02-17 | Rating: 5 This is my first rice cooker, although I've used my friend's so had the basic idea of what they could do. I can't believe how easy this thing is and how perfect everything comes out! With nothing required from me in terms of figuring out how long to set it (although I've learned to start it early since it does a nice job of keeping the rice warm, and that works better than having dinner ready but np rice!) I've done a bunch of different rices, even some boxed rice like cheesy rice and it always comes out great. I don't find the cooker hard to clean at all, although you do have to be sure not to scratch the inside of the pan with metal utensils. This isn't the roomiest so if you have a big family, might not be for you, but for cooking for a small number, it's great. Great Product!!! Date: 2007-02-23 | Rating: 5 I love this one which I have it for 3 years now. It offers a lot of good features so I think it's too good for the price. I have an infant and a todler which most of my times are for them. I need to puree a lot of baby food. This wonderful cooker helps a lot. Beside cooking rice beautifully and keep it warm. The pordrige feature does a good job in cooking chicken vegtable noodle soup (or rice pordrige) in just about 1/2 an hour. The slow cook feature does an excellent job and save me a lot of time. The steam feature helps a lot in steaming vegtable while cooking the rice....I LOVE it. I just put everything in the pot, set the time and choose the feature I want, then go on working and take care my children. I would highly recommend it. In fact, I'm looking to buy another one for my MOM and write this comment while I'm at it. I bought mine at an asian market named Marina Food. Good luck. Good Rice Cooker Date: 2004-12-19 | Rating: 4 UPDATE after 2 year's of ownership: the inner container of the unit is not as durable as that of Zujiroshi. It developed scratches after 1 year. We used the Zujiroshi unit more often and it is still smooth like new. UPDATE after one month's use: the unit also works as a slow cooker and a steamer. Cleaning is no problem. Better than I had expected. Better than my old 3-cup Zujiroshi. 5-star it should be. I bought this unit since my old 3-cup Zujiroshi one is not big enough for my family any more. The price is much lower than that of a Zujiroshi counterpart on Amazon. After using it for two days, I gave it 4 star since its design is not as convenient as my old Zujiroshi. First, Zujiroshi is easier to clean. It has a inner top lid that can be taken off and rinsed. The lid of this product will not come off and I can only wipe it. Second, Zujiroshi has a metal cooking pan and you can use it to rinse rice. This one has a plastic coated pan and the instruction manual says that you should use a different container to rinse rice. Despite these minor drawbacks, this is still a good rice cooker and we will keep it. | |||||
