Zojirushi NW-YNC10WA Induction Rice Cooker and Warmer 5.5 Cup, White

First, I will start off by saying that I was sent the wrong rice cooker by Amazon. I originally ordered the Zojirushi NW-JEC18BA 10-cup Rice Cooker but received the smaller Zojirushi NW-JEC10BA 5.5-cup Rice Cooker instead. Because they look so similar, I didn't notice this until after my first use. But upon discovering this, I decided that the 5.5-cup model will suit 95% of my needs for a family of 3 that might host larger gatherings a few times a year. I did reach out to Amazon to discuss and correct the mistake. This does not impact the review of the product itself, but I wanted to bring it

I have always loved rice and with takeout prices what they are today, I’ve been looking for a way to make takeout rice at home. My wife always had a box of Minute Rice in the kitchen, and I always hated that taste and texture. For most of my life, I’ve settled for inferior methods of cooking rice. Believe me, I’ve been all over the internet, watching videos of people telling me how easy it is to make rice. It seemed no matter what we tried, the rice always came out sticky and with an inferior chew texture. At some point, I learned that there are different kinds of rice that I should be using a

This is a first use review. The instructions were simple. I cooked 3 cups of Koshihikari rice, and it came out absolutely perfect. My old rice cooker died so I decided to shell out for the best. My old one never came close to the perfection of my new Zojirushi. While it is most prohibitively expensive it can be worth it especially if you buy the extended warranty.Update 1 month:I used it 2-3 times a week for my Koshihikari 🍚. It is spot on every single time whether I'm making one cup or four. I can't believe I waited do long to buy a Zojirushi. I pined for one for nigh on a decade. I couldn't

Best ricemaker money can buy in the US. Excluding specialty Japanese plug models this is exceptional at creating plump defined rice. Each grain has just the right amount of bite. This will definitely show you the differences in high quality rice crop and is definitely worth the investment if you eat rice often. Also it makes brown rice palatable, and that’s nothing short of a miracle :)

I’m Vietnamese and I’ve used plenty of rice cookers over the years. I didn't expect to be blown away. This rice cooker is crazy amazing. I used the exact same brand and type of rice I always buy, yet the aroma and taste turned out night-and-day better than anything I've made before. It’s almost weird how much of an upgrade it is for the exact same ingredient, but the result speaks for itself.

After a couple of uses, I've found the product genuinely produces slightly better cooked rice than other rice cookers I've owned. But I can't say the slight improvement is worth the 3-4x higher price than those other products.The device feels premium, the instructions are clear, and it's easy to clean. A couple annoyances are that the screen is not backlit and can be difficult to read, the electrical cord is thick and not removable, and the finish of the black cover is very vulnerable to micro scratches and swirl marks. After a single wipe with a wash cloth, I immediately saw swirl marks resem

The rice cooker is on the expensive side, but if you like your rice tasty, this is your purchase.

I purchased this Zojirushi rice cooker in December 2024, drawn to the brand’s reputation for quality and reliability. I paid significantly more than for comparable models from other brands because I expected a durable, long-lasting product.After using it only about 15 times to cook plain rice, I’ve noticed noticeable corrosion (rust-like spots) developing on multiple areas of the removable inner lid – the very part that’s designed to be taken out and cleaned after each use. This seems like a clear material or manufacturing defect, especially given how little use the cooker has seen.When I cont
