Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White Best Quality
this is a fantastic rice maker- especially if you like to make several different types of rice.
the "keep warm" feature keeps the rice VERY warm- with out scorching the bottom.
our only set backs have been, that rice takes at least and hr. to make- as opposed to my original little rice steamer [that made terrible rice.]
And that the timer in on a 24 hr count. We have mistakenly tried to have rice at 4 pm, and, ended up having to cancel and hit start, due to user error of setting it for 4 am.
as for the previous reviewers who complained that this does not make enough rice- it IS the smallest one in the series, and there are larger versions of this. we find that we can make plenty of rice for 4 servings.
also, keep and read the instruction book. it is great fun. and very helpful.
this rice maker plays "twinkle twinkle little star" when the rice starts cooking- and something else when it finishes. despite the novelty of this feature, it can be changed to beeps, or turned off completely. its the kind of technology we brag to our friends about, to counter their endless talk of giant HDTVs and so forth.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

This is by far the best rice cooker I've had. In the past, I've used Hitachi and National rice cookers that basically just heat up and cook the rice. This Zojirushi cooks the rice very evenly. I prefer my rice soft yet still resilient and the normal setting does that. It also keeps the rice from drying out if you leave it to warm. I've left it for a couple of hours and the rice remined perfect. Also, this rice cooker is quite easy to use.

It's been going strong for 6 years now, cranking out rice by the pound -- perfect every time. These days, I cook mostly brown rice, and it's absolutely fantastic. People who complain about how long it takes to cook brown rice don't seem to understand that brown rice just takes a lot longer to cook. Many Americans cook it the same length of time (and with the same amount of water) as white rice -- which is just not right. That gives you crunchy, undercooked rice.
I love this thing, and I'd be lost without it. Have tried the cheaper Panasonic and was not impressed. The Zojirushi is pricey, but worth it. Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

The directions are easy enough to follow, the control buttons are easy to use, and my rice comes out perfect every single time. There are multiple cooking settings for different types of rice, too. It's a little bit bigger in size than I thought (13" X 9" X 7 1/2"). It keeps the rice warm for hours after it's finished cooking with no burning. Easy to clean, too.

As vegans, my boyfriend and I cook rice nearly every day. This rice cooker makes cooking rice really easy and honestly makes the best tasting rice we've ever made. Cleaning is easy because all of the pieces are removable and snap back into place. The only downside to the cooker is that it comes with two measuring cups: one for unwashed rice, and one for washed rice. I have gotten the cups confused several times, as you are supposed to wash any rice you use in this cooker, but the rice turned out OK despite my error.
Overall, we love the cooker. It is worth the money, and the company shipped the product really quickly. We highly recommend this rice cooker!Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

I received this rice cooker today. I was torn with the size. Can I feed my family, and have leftovers with this? We are a family of five and was torn between the ten cup and the 5.5. After I ordered the 5.5 I really felt like I should have ordered the 10 cup, even though I am not crazy about adding more appliances to my limited counter space. Most reviews don't mention how much this cooker will feed. Well, for my family, we all ate to our hearts content and still had plenty of leftovers. Given that my kids are all eight and under, we don't need a larger cooker. It was quite a bit of rice that it makes! I can probably feed 7 people easily with this cooker. If you entertain a lot, or eat a lot (hello carbs) I'd go the next size up, not a big price difference. It produced excellent Sushi rice, not burned at all on the bottom, a first for me! I have gone from a fancy $$$ Breville, to an Oster and they all burned on the bottom. This came out perfect from the first try. I recommend this rice cooker, didn't give it a five, because I have not had it long enough to give it a perfect rating. Best appliance I have bought in years. Also, would like to add that it plays a cute tune when it starts the cook cycle. It is a unique appliance.

So I've been raised on 'instant' rice, and I just got this rice cooker - and it makes me sad that I was missing out on this delicious rice all those years.
I've cooked around 5 different kinds of rice in this thing (sushi, brown, sweet, basmati, wild rice), and each and every batch has come out absolutely perfect.
I'm dying to try out the porridge feature, I'll have to pick some up soon. One of the coolest features on this cooker is the timer. You set the time you want the rice to be done, and voila, the rice is done for you at exactly that time. So if you don't want to wait around for dinner after you get home, dinner will be waiting for you.
This thing even plays music in place of timer beeps. How cool is that?

This cooker is an huge improvement over my $20 padle-controlled cooker. Nice selection of options and it cooks and entire batch of rice correctly every time. I really like the warming mode after cooking, it makes timing the meal much easier.
My previous cooker regularly over cooked the bottom. I had to double the batch to get the amount I wanted. Or I would try the stovetop, ususlly with similar results.
Other reviews complained about the length of time it takes to cook a batch of rice. While it is true that a 20 minute stovetop batch becomes a 40-50 minute batch, the rice is cooked to perfection. Is cooking a batch of dry and burnt rice in 20 minutes really a comparison?
I find that cleanup is quite easy if I remove the cover from the lid and wash it before the residue dries. The cooking pan is teflon so is easy to clean when I remove any leftovers to the refrigerator. The retractable power cord is way cool, makes storage easy.
The instructions are a little light on cooking grains other than rice. Not surprising given it is a rice cooker. I will have to do some experimentation on cooking Kashi. Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

Fantastic. You should note that if you prefer white rice, $200 for a rice cooker might not be necessary. What I really like about this is how well it does brown rice. It's not actually that simple to do brown rice correctly, or at least quick. I previously had a cheapo rice cooker that generally scalded the bottom and would leave some hard rice kernels when it did brown rice.
If you don't dislike the taste, you're doing yourself a pretty big and simple favor eating brown rice.
And anyone complaining about Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is silly. Or perhaps not silly enough. It's so Japanese, it's quite amusing to hear a gawdy song play announcing the arrival of "tasty rice!"Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

I buy a lot from Amazon, but I don't write a lot of reviews. This rice cooker, however, is amazing. I got it overnight, just unpacked it, and made delicious, chewy, creamy, nutty steel cut oats in about an hour. Use 1 rice cooker cup of McCann's oats, 3 rice cooker cups of water, select the porridge setting, and come back in about an hour. Stir in the juice that rises to the top and enjoy. Brown rice pudding is next. I have to get up really early some days, and I can't wait to pre-program in a hot breakfast. Think of it as a slow cooker for people with a sense of urgency!
The ZCC10 is extremely well made and easy to clean. I also recommend the Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook by Hensperger and Kaufmann, which has lots of good ideas for rice and more.
So far, the only thing I can see to look out for is to make sure that you measure consistently. Use the 180 ml rice cooker cups for the grain and the water, or use larger kitchen cups for the grain and the water to get the right ratio. Also, the unit comes with a nubby plastic spatula/scraper thingy that won't mar the nonstick finish of the bowl. Cleaning is a breeze with cold water and a microfiber cloth.
It's a little pricey, but well worth it because it has just about every setting you'll need to make more than just plan rice.

This rice cooker is so easy to use. I did discover that brown basmatti rice, which we use almost exclusively, needs to be cooked with the semi-brown rice setting and on that setting it comes out perfectly every time. You can set the timer for the rice to be ready at a particular time and the cooker starts at the right time to get it done on time. It does take longer than my old rice cooker, but the timer compensates for that. It takes 1 hour to cook brown basmatti rice, and my old cooker took 45 minutes. I have no idea how long white rice takes, because we rarely eat it. I would definitely purchase this rice cooker again if I had it to do over.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

Great rice every time, and simple to use once you've waded through the instructions once. This is hands down better than the numerous American style/manufactured rice cookers I've owned in the past, some of which were more expensive. Some specific notes:
- Thick, quality interior rice bowl. This is one of the most important things because, just like any stove-top pot, even heat distribution is extremely important. I'm not sure if this thing is anodized, but it's definitely thicker than any inner tray I've had with my previous rice cookers. This is one reason that I rarely have problems with the bottom layer of rice over-cooking.
- Large, contoured heating element. This is another important thing as it spreads out the surface that is being directly heated, meaning (1) less heat needs to be used at any particular point on bowl and (2) the bowl doesn't need to be overly-engineered to spread concentrated heat. Here is reason number two that I rarely get burned rice on the bottom.
- Slow cook cycle (this is a good thing). It takes about 45 - 60 minutes to cook even a small amount of rice because this cooker raises the rice to a very specific temperature and then attempts to steam it as part of the cooking process. All the American cookers I've had in the past cook in about twenty minutes through a direct boil-and-be-done process. Of course, this gadget DOES have a fast cook process so it can operate in this fashion, but why waste good rice?

And, who needs another counter-cluttering gadget right? Wrong. I can now say I never truly enjoyed rice before I let my neuro fuzzy logic cooker take over. I am humbled to say, it is smarter than me. And most forgiving. Brown rice never tasted so good! This high quality, well-built machine looks great and works fantastic. Instructions are easy to follow and the warming feature comes in handy.

I am Asian, cook rice every day. I am very picky on the rice cooker that I use. I had thought that Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy would give me the best cooked rice. However, I am very dispointed. First, this rice cooker takes forever to cook. I mean twice longer than a regular simple rice cooker. Why? Because it requires 120V while we all use 110V. I dont know why the manufactur does that since it sells to U.S. Second, the texture of the rice that it cooks tastes as good as a $30.00 rice cooker. Third, the cooker use battery. Battery will die.

I have had this 5.5 cups neuro fuzzy rice cooker for over two years now. I use it on a weekly basis and the rice comes out perfect every time, as is expected from this line and brand of rice cookers. However, I would actually use it more often if the cook time was faster. It takes this little cooker about twice the amount of time it takes a conventional rice cooker to make rice for two people (about 45mins - 1hr for 1.5-2.0 cups), which is waaaay too long. I usually want to whip up dinner in less time than that. I have had several embarrassing occasions where I put up rice too late while I had company over and everyone was waiting for the rice to be ready and it feels like forever. I might as well cook the rice on top of the stove. So to compensate, I now have to make my rice in advance on the weekends and keep it stored in plastic containers in the fridge for microwave convenience. It's just not the same as freshly made rice which is hot and steaming from the cooker. My mom's old-fashioned rice cooker which she has had for more than ten years makes rice in about 20mins. However, my mom's old-fashioned rice cooker can't make brown rice like this one can because it sticks to the bottom and becomes crusty. Don't get this cooker if you need a fast rice cooker. I guess they put in new technology that makes perfect rice, but takes twice as long. If it weren't for the slow cook time, which a HUGE minus for me, I would give this rice cooker 5 stars.

Low Price Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White
After reading many reviews of this and other rice cookers on Amazon, I opted for the Zojirushi. So far, two months later, it has worked quite well in terms of how it cooks rice and other grains, and I especially like the time-delay that allows me to wake up to hot cereal in the morning. The drawbacks are that food crud gets stuck in the steam outlet and it's hard to remove because the lid doesn't lift off for cleaning. You have to go in with a small toothbrush or bottle brush to get rid of the goop. If you don't, it will cake up and block the vent. There is a removable metal plate in the lid that also gets dirty, but it's hand washable. However, it's rimmed by a pliable gasket that catches water, and takes a long time to air-dry. If you put it back into the rice cooker when it's wet, you can create a breeding ground for bacteria, particularly if you leave the machine unused for several days.
One earlier reviewer mentioned that his Zojirushi died after four years due to an internal circuitry failure, and it was costly to replace the computer. I thought long and hard about this caveat when I ponied up the $175 for the rice cooker. If this happens to mine, I'll have to determine if it was worth it to spend that much on a doomed machine. In the meanwhile, I am moderately satisfied with the machine itself, and am pleased with the way it cooks. I also love the idea of having something that's both "neuro" and "fuzzy" on my countertop. Seems an apt metaphor for the way I live.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

I'm south indian and I grew up eating rice every day...every meal. You would think that I would hate rice by now, but I still love it. For the last year or so, I've been using this rice cooker because my fiance bought it...she had heard it was the best.
I'll make no bones about it...this rice cooker makes perfect rice every time. I don't like my rice too soggy or too dry, and I've had neither of these problems with this rice cooker.
So why 3 stars? Because sometimes when you want rice...you want it now! Even on the "Fast" setting, this cooker takes 40 minutes to make rice. Put it on the regular setting and brown rice (I've been trying to eat more brown rice of late) takes way more than an hour! Who wants to wait that long?

After finally getting sick of accidentally screwing up rice made on the countertop, I decided to purchase this rice cooker a couple weeks ago - so far i've made a few batches of white rice with it, and they were worlds better than what i've managed on my own....I eat a lot of Chinese and Thai food, and the rice this thing produces easily matches up to restaurant product, although maybe not better.
Operation was simple: just dump in the rice, fill the water to the right line, close and start it up. Aside from steam coming out the vent and the little start/end tune, you wouldn't even know it was on. So far the rice (regular white rice) has always come out perfect - not crunchy or soggy but nicely steamed.
As many others have commented on, this cooker is not fast - my latest batch of 4 cups of rice took approx. 50 minutes. However, considering that during all of this time I could work on making the rest of dinner and relaxing instead of keeping an eye on a simmering pot, it's well worth it. And of course there's the timer function where I can fill it in the morning, leave for the workday, and have it cooked and ready for dinner when I get home.
Cleanup was also very easy, as the non-stick pot displayed non-stickiness as advertised, I think it took 2 or 3 minutes of extremely light wiping and it was again spotless. The inner lid does seem to accumulate gunk during the cooking process, and unfortunately is not non-stick, but is still easily cleaned in a few minutes.
All in all, while it took me a long time to finally decide to spend the money on this cooker, it has been well worth it so far. Looking forward to trying the other functions for brown rice, porridge/oatmeal and such.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

I can cook just about anything and everything well - except rice. Don't ask me why, but it always burns in the pan, or is too mushy, or takes freakin' forever (I live at over 5000' altitude).
Finally, after many years of desiring this little white pod of rice making love, I bought my Zojirushi. And I love everything about it - white rice, brown rices - all turn out perfect everytime. And I can focus on all the other parts of cooking a delish meal without stressing about that pot of rice.

I am from Japan, and I am inevitably very picky for the quality of cooked rice. I swear, this rice cooker is among the best purchases I've made on Amazon. Short grain Japanese rice comes out, oh, so, beautifully! Even my mother, a hard-core Japanese woman, thinks it's awesome. I also cooked Indian basmati rice, Spanish long grain rice, wild rice, brown rice...you name it, any type of rice I tried came out absolutely perfectly.
I'm not trying to sound nationalistic, but I'd recommend anyone who plans to buy a new rice cooker to make sure that your new purchase is MADE IN JAPAN. The entire nation of Japan has been obsessed with cooking perfect rice. This product is one of the results of the national obsession. It's a bit more pricey, but it's worth it. Zojirushi has been long known in Japan for superior quality.
This rice cooker sings. When you press the start button, you'd hear a cute melody that lets you know the cooking is started. 40 minutes later, you'd hear another cute melody that lets you know the rice is done! Believe it or not, those melodies are by Mozart and by French King Louis XIII. Who would expect digital Mozart in the kitchen while preparing 3 cups of rice? What a choice - this weird cuteness is also un-mistakeably Japanese... I never thought that rice cooking would become such a fun.

Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White Review
I bought this to make Japanese rice, which I do 2-3 times a week. I also bought this to replace my older rice cooker which had no fancy auto features or a clock/timer. My older one was a 10-cup cooker, but I've never used it beyond 4 cups, so this 5-cupper is great for a small family. I use it for 2 or 3 cups of rice-making.
Quality of the rice is a lot better on this model if you follow the directions. I also like the pre-washed rice feature since the rice I buy comes like that. It also takes longer to make rice on this one than on my cruder rice (I say it now takes 45 mins vs 30 mins on the old model), but like I said I like the quality of the cooked rice better on this.
The weaknesses on this model are: 1) the steam lid/liner uses a rubber o-ring/gasket attached to a metal disc to create a tight seal during cooking. The ring is screwed into the disc, which is then attached or detached to the cooker lid. So far, it's been easy to wash, but if you plan on putting the cooker away for long-term storage, ensure you let the steam lid air out completely, otherwise there will be moisture trapped between the rubber gasket and the disc. Also, lots of gooey rice steam gets collected between the steam exhaust port and the liner/lid, and I find I have to wipe it out of the exhaust port after every use. If I don't, the goo will ooze out of the port and onto the lip of the cooker and onto the heating elements if you close the lid without the liner/lid. It might scorch if the element is still hot. Just something to be careful of. Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.
Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White Top Quality
If so, this is a wonderful choice. I've owned this unit for over three years and it has delivered truly remarkable results 100% of the time (no exaggeration). I've cooked everything from long grain basmati, to Japanese pearl rice to brown and wild rice to porridge in this unit. It has never missed a beat--delivering perfectly cooked rice, repeatedly. It comes with an excellent instruction manual, but you won't really need it if you get the excellent companion cookbook: The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook : 250 No-Fail Recipes for Pilafs, Risottos, Polenta, Chilis, Soups, Porridges, Puddings and More, from Start to Finish in Your Rice Cooker . I reviewed that book very positively as well for one simple reason--the recipes taste great and they're easy to make. If you buy this Zojirushi, you'll not only be happy with the its performance, your friends and family will think you're a fabulous cook!!

I bought the predecessor to this (the NS-ZAC10) 5 yrs ago, but have had no issues whatsoever.. Of late I've started making my own version of chicken bog (South Carolina food) and it does great. I put in 2 scoops of rice, breast meat from a rotisserie chicken and some sliced turkey italian sausage links, top it off with water to the 5 cup white rice mark and let it go. Great results every time.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

My wife and I would eat rice two or three times a week and it was just rice. Now with this cooker we eat rice five to seven times a week and I quite frequently eat rice twice a day! I love it! It's so easy! Like Ron Popeil says"set it and forget it". We have nothing negative to say about this machine.Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.
Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White Best Quality
I bought this to replace the Tiger rice cooker I've had to retire after 10 years. I wanted something more versatile and better at cooking brown rice (never seemed to come out quite right in the Tiger). Little did I know that this cooker would double as a grain and porridge genius! At least 4 mornings a week we all wake up to perfectly cooked, piping hot oatmeal or rice porridge. The warmer keeps contents hot(and unburned) into the next day if you like. Brown rice setting works great. Also makes a perfectly creamy dreamy polenta and many other grain dishes that are difficult to get "just right" on the stove. Be sure to get a good rice cooker cookbook for lots of new ideas. Nice short cut for fast meals- especially if your family is eating vegetarian. We love this little thing- we call it "fuzzy". it looks like a robot pet- very Japanese. Now we'll see if it withstands the test of time.
Overall VERY impressive! I would easily recommend. Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.

I spent months shopping for this rice cooker, going back and forth between cheaper and more expensive rice cookers. Having once lived in Japan over 4 years, it isn't "just a rice cooker" as my wife purports, so I decided on a Zoji in the end. My only initial hesistation was the inbility to replace the battery in the LCD display. However, the ability to cook brown rice just as well as other rice and its record for reliability outweighed the battery issue. I've had the NS-ZCC10 for two months, using it 2-3 times a week, and have been very pleased with the results. And the concern that it would not make enough for a family of five has been no issue as I seldom have the need to make more than 3 cups for a single meal. (In Japan its typical to have a batch of rice cooked up to eat throughout the day, however, I only use it for single meals) Cleanup is super simple compared to the aluminum single button Hitachi I had for 20 years (it was broken by the movers- maybe it should have broken sooner).

If one buys pricey Japanese rice, she must have a good rice cooker and this is the one for me! Rice is always cooked shiny, plump, and slightly sticky: perfect rice! I have been using this for over 6 months but there is no problem and no scratches in the non-stick coating.
Probably one complaint is that cooking takes rather long: one hour. Quick cooking is not that quick. Get more detail about Zojirushi NS-ZCC10 5-1/2-Cup Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker and Warmer, Premium White.
