I agonized over the decision to buy this rice cooker and did a lot of research. I had a cheap rice cooker that was OK but it was a simple on/off type. I found I wasn't using it that much because the brown rice took so long to cook I did not want to wait. Finally decided to do it and I've been very pleased. I use the porridge cycle a lot for a oatmeal/leftover rice breakfast.
Key features:
Timer: Set it to have the rice ready at 6pm and it is ready at 6pm. This is especially important for brown rice because it takes about 80 minutes to cook.
Rice settings: Cooking brown rice, just select the brown rice setting. Same for porridge, sweet, semi brown, and 3 white rice settings.
Porridge Setting: I use the porridge cycle 3-4 times a week for a oatmeal/leftover rice breakfast. I'm hooked on this stuff. (Recipe is in the Ultimate Ricecooker Cookbook).
Very Easy to clean: Basically, you clean to non-stick pot and the pop out top each time you use it. It really can't get any easier. (One person who reviewed this machine complained about it being "difficult to maintain" but I can't imagine how they came to this conclusion).
Rice paddle holder on side: This may sound like a minor item but I had a cheap rice cooker that had no where to put the paddle during serving and it was a pain. I prefer not to just set things on the counter.
The only thing that needs a little work is the instruction manual. It is very limited and you will want to purchase The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook. Buy it online in paperback.
If you eat rice 3 or more times a week, go ahead and get this machine. It is worth the price. (If you look hard online you can find it for about $160). If you don't eat rice 3 times a week this machine might change that.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.
