17 customers mention "Ease of cleaning"10 positive7 negative

Customers have different views on the rice cooker's cleaning. Some find it easy to clean, avoiding hard bristled brushes on the non-stick surface, and the washing instructions are straightforward.

"...It's really as easy as rinse the rice, add some water, press a button, and come back when the machine plays its song...." Read more

"...This is not a showstopper. It's still pretty easy to clean, but I did not have that issue with my older, non-pressure cooker model...." Read more

12 customers mention "Cooking ability"8 positive4 negative

Customers have mixed reviews about the rice cooker's cooking ability. Some find it cooks evenly, preserving the texture of the kernels, while others mention that it overcooks the rice. The process is described as real boiling, instead of soaking in hot water. However, some customers feel the machine differs from traditional rice cookers, and the rice becomes tasteless or has difficulty getting cooked off the lid.

"...There's a lot more functions such as scorched rice and what not. I've tried it and it's incredibly temperamental...." Read more

"...up behind the removable plate in the lid, and it can be a little troublesome to get cooked on funk off the non-removable portion of the lid...." Read more

"...It was not burned or dried out. I was impressed... and proceeded to eat the rice for my meal. Follow the directions for washing the rice...." Read more

"...steam comes out strongly during the cooking process, so there was real boiling instead of mere soaking in hot water...." Read more

Perfect rice - Always
5 out of 5 stars
Perfect rice - Always
Do you really need a $400+ rice cooker? Probably not. I can cook rice in a pot, but you gotta be near it. Especially it being a stainless steel pot and the cover isn't glass. You really gotta listen for that boil.This changes everything. You give your rice a good wash. Usually I do 6-7 gentle scrubs and then 6-7 rinses. Let the rice dry for 10 mins. Then I fill to about 2-3mm under the recommended line. First time around I was on the line, and the rice felt a bit too mushy for my liking. Then I cooked it on the umami option. 74 mins that I don't have to worry about taking care of my rice. I can relax, clean, or take care of the other things for breakfast/ lunch/ or dinner. Once the rice is done don't forget to fluff it. The best part is having the keep warm option. I've had rice taste as fresh as ever 3 days later when I finish it.One of the other things I've noticed is the rice does taste sweeter. We're not talking about a candy sweetness, but a natural sweetness. It's subtle but it's there. Zojirushi claims it's from the platinum pot and the pressure feature. Whatever it is, it does taste better than the rice cooked in a pot. I look forward to using all the other different rice options and even testing out some oats.The machine isn't difficult to clean. You remove the pot, slide up one other, push an orange button to release the top part. I hand wash all those and then take a warm damp towel and scrub the inside. Especially the top part.

    I had to replace my old zojirushi fuzzy neuro rice cooker and I tried their competitors from a prominent korean company and another japanese company since this rice cooker hurts my wallet. The biggest feature about this rice cooker is the induction heating and pressure cooking which seemed like buzzwords but it makes a huge difference. If you have an instant pot, you know what I mean when you have that juicy pressure cooked rice. Imagine that quality rice but more homogenous and in a nonstick container so you don't have to scrape at the pot after you're done with your rice. The rice here blows the rice from my old zojirushi fuzzy neuro out of the water.

    With the korean competitor, on paper it looks better. It's half the price of a comparable zojirushi with the same induction heating and pressure cooking. It cooks rice at half the time 25 - 30 minutes vs 50-55 minutes. There's a lot more functions such as scorched rice and what not. I've tried it and it's incredibly temperamental. It tries to do everything and is the master of none. The rice from this korean competitor is subpar compared to the zojirushi. This zojirushi takes a bit longer to make rice, it has less settings, but it does everything perfectly. But what really stood out is the price of the parts. It's actually cheaper and easier to get replacement parts for this zojirushi if anything were to happen in the future. That is something else you're paying for, the availability of OEM parts 5 - 6 years from now.

    If money is an issue, I'd still get the induction heated version of this rice cooker, but I would highly suggest splurging ever so slightly for the pressure cooking version instead. Over the span of the lifetime of the product, it's pennies.

    What can a very expensive rice maker do that less expensive ones can't? I would argue this has less features out of the box than less expensive rice makers.

    But what you buy this for is the quality and precise cooking of your rice. You buy this because "good enough" isn't!

    This rice maker makes rice, grains, oats and that is it! (Unless you buy a steam tray separately and then experiment so that you can still make your steam buns...)
    But the rice and oats come out marvelously, the texture is perfect and I didn't realize you could get different flavors out of rice with a pressure boil method or however this works. Truly a revolution in my mouth.

    The first use smelled like burning plastic, and I did remove all of the plastic prior. So maybe run it first time with just water.

    It looks pretty nice, but is definitely out of place on my counter; everything else is black or stainless. With that said, I find it to be an attractive device.

    It is easy to use, and it makes more than I know what to do with it. It has congee presets, steel cut oats, different styles of rice. Only thing missing is a steam tray, but I ordered a steel one off of eBay, and that filled it's role nicely.

    For the price, it is hard to recommend; but if you are well off this is the single best grain making appliance that I have encountered. I think you could find a better value lower down the line if you are ok buying made in China though.

    This is my second Zojirushi rice cooker. I started using these long before Uncle Roger told me to.

    This is without question the way to make rice. It's easy. Even I can make perfect rice every time, and I can barely make a bowl of cereal. It's really as easy as rinse the rice, add some water, press a button, and come back when the machine plays its song.

    I use it for rice frequently, but it also does an amazing job with oatmeal. I use this machine every morning to make breakfast, and it's always perfect.

    I do recommend washing the bowl by hand and not putting it in the dishwasher. I threw the bowl of my last machine in the dishwasher, and it did not hold up long term. That's what prompted me to replace the machine. I'm sure this is in the instructions I never bothered to read!

    5.0 out of 5 stars This is the Ferrari and Lamborghini of all rice cookers (Totally Worth the initial cost!)
    Reviewed in Canada on June 23, 2021
    I know it’s not fair to give 3 stars for an item which I only used 2 times. I’m rating it based on the presets I used so far.
    As of now, I only used umami and rinse free presets, and the results were mediocre. I tried umami without rinse free, the rice was a little chewy (hard) and fluffy. But when combined umami + rinse free. The total cooking time was 77 instead of 74 with just umami preset. The result was mushy and wet. The rice grain was broken and sticky.
    Next time I will try white rice setting with regular, then soft, and finally hard. I will update this review with every preset I can experiment with.
    This is the top of the line rice cooker by Zojirushi, so it should be perfect!

    The rice I tested throughout this trial is Japanese short grain rice

    1st update: I measured the cup ratio 1:1 with the filter water and the rice turned out mushy and sticky. Grains were broken.

    2nd update: This time I used regular white presets only. The rice was tough and chewy. Not quite there yet!

    SUCCESS! 3rd update: I measured 2 cups of white rice with umami preset. Make sure the water is measured to the marking on the pot. Because my last attempt, I skimped the water and the rice was dry.
    This time around the rice turned out to have a buttery smoothness with a hint of sweetness. Every bite to the fluffy rice is like biting through cloud. No mushiness or wetness to it. The rice was perfect!

    3 times a charm!

    When the rice is ready, turn off the keep warm button and then scoop and toss the rice around with the ladle back and forth and then close the lid to let it sit for another 10 minutes to get a better result!

    Final update: it’s important to use the rinse free measure cup if cooking Musenmai rice. Select rinse free preset and select Umami preset. Rice and water ratio is 1:1. The rice will turn out fluffy and chewy!

    Just switch to jasmine rice recently and the jasmine preset produces the most fragrant rice ever! The rice was firm and individual grain can be tasted easily! I can’t think of another way to make jasmine rice if the preset on this machine is not included.

    Update: 2024 I'm all Japanese short grain Koshihikari Rice! Its the bomb! Most sweetest and buttery soft firm rice to eat! Make sure you buy the import Japanese Koshihikari rice! Its a bit pricey but worth every penny!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best rice cooker

    Had the induction heating one for 10 years and had to replace the inner bowl and all sounds stopped working. Then upgraded to the induction pressure cooker and I can taste the difference between the two, I do eat rice everyday so for me it's all worth it.

    Edit:

    After a year with this rice cooker, I went keto and cut all carbs. But when I was eating rice I was using this everyday and it was great, too bad my diet won't allow me to eat rice anymore.

    We had the 10 cup rice cooker in the past with induction cooking . The Teflon coating started to wear and we disposed of the unit we bought a similar product from same company without the induction cooking function and noticed a difference immediately in the rice being cooked but different in texture. Since we went back to induction cooker is better. Cost is a bit higher than what I expected but hopefully it will last longer than 5 years.

    And it's better than my first. Amazing options, great consistency and offers that ability to keep your rice warm and fresh for a crazy long time. It's pricey, sure, but if you eat rice at least once a week, this is the best investment you could possibly make.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculously easy perfection.

    I haven't had the machine that long so will update if it has long term issues (which I doubt based off others) but I have cooked short grain white sushi rice, brown, gaba brown, basmati and daily steel cut oatmeal in this and it makes absolutely perfect results every time. with absolutely minimal effort.

    Expensive but if you make rice or steel cut oats regularly then this is excellent.
