Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Plump, tender and moist grains of rice, with the option of colorful steamed veggies, can be yours with this cooker/steamer. No need to worry about rice drying out and sticking to the sauce pan either, as the "keep warm" function will maintain ideal temperature and consistency until you're ready to serve. Use the steamer basket for chicken, seafood, or vegetables - healthy cooking was never this easy!

Amazon.com Review
From carrots to cauliflower, cabbage to eggs, and rice to potatoes, this 6-cup cooker/steamer and warmer from Zojirushi steams foods to perfection and keeps them warm. The set includes a removable steaming tray, nonstick cooking pan, measuring cup, and spatula--the removable parts make this steamer easy to clean, and a removable cord makes it easy to store. Watch the foods while they cook through the clear glass lid or watch the cooking switch that pops up when the food is ready. There's also an automatic keep-warm system activated immediately after rice is cooked, and durable stay-cool handles make for safe handling. This attractive rice cooker measures 9-1/4 by 9-1/4 by 9-1/4 inches. --David Drury

1 out of 5 stars BROWN RICE -Spluttering disaster !   May 20, 2008
Ann Taylor (Alton, IL USA)
Like a few other reviewers, we bought this cooker to replace a long-serving rice cooker. We eat, almost exclusively, brown rice and our old rice cooker only provided 3 cup capacity, so we decided to upgrade to this 6 cup capacity one. Unfortunately when this cooker arrived, in my enthusiasm, I tossed away all the packaging, believing that this Japanese manufacturer (my partner is Japanese American) could be relied upon to produce a quality product. Wow, was I wrong. First, if you cook brown rice, then they only recommend a 3 cup capacity -- so there went one of our goals. Second, and as others have noted, this is the messiest kitchen device I have ever seen. It splutters and spits starchy water out of every direction from the lid rim, and then that hole in the lid forces more messy steam onto all the cabinets. Frankly, I cannot believe it passed any kind of test from the manufacturer. It must be OK for cooking white rice, otherwise the reviews would all be much lower.... but be warned. This WILL NOT COOK BROWN RICE. We are now looking for another model... $50 bucks poorer. Ugh!


3 out of 5 stars still waiting for perfect rice   May 1, 2008
Maria Calil (PA)
I've waited to review this product for a while hoping to master "perfect rice" Although this does make pretty good white rice, I actually purchased it to make brown rice. It has yet to present perfect rice. It always browns the bottom rendering that rice inedible. I have experimented with different ratios of rice/water and always rinsed my rice as directions list. I bought this product with the expectations of perfect rice, with a long holding time. If the rice is brown at bottom directly after cooking, how will it be after holding an hour? I made better rice stove top, and will continue to cook it that way.
Does anyone want to buy a cheap rice cooker? LOL



1 out of 5 stars If I wanted to think about cooking rice, I wouldn't have bought a rice cooker   April 28, 2008

Cooked brown rice in it according to the special brown rice directions. Spat water all over the counter. Extremely disappointed in this product.


5 out of 5 stars Truly non-stick!   April 28, 2008
Cindy T (New York, USA)
My last non-Zojirushi rice cooker was supposed to be non-stick, but each time I use it, I end up with so much rice sticking to the base of the inner pan (enough to fill one bowl)!

I've used my new Zojirushi 6-cup rice cooker twice so far... once to cook two cups and the 2nd time to cook one cup of rice. The rice was cooked to perfection each time with not even one grain of rice sticking to the base!




5 out of 5 stars Great rice cooker!   April 24, 2008
FlynE (Lake Forest, CA)
I've had various rice cookers over the years. There's always been some problem mainly not cooking the rice well. The last one was Faberware which often didn't cook the rice completely so we'd have to recook it. Brown rice was even worse. The new Zojirushi has cooked white and brown rice excellent - perfect every time, just one click. Just make sure you follow the directions for brown rice and put the right ratio rice to water. I highly recommend this one.
