Amazon.com Review
This rice cooker cooks up to 10 cups (enough to feed a 10 to 20 people or more) of a variety of rices--white, sweet, porridge, and mixed--for accompanying stir-fries, stuffing peppers, or rolling sushi. The LCD screen is easy to read and the push-button controls are simple to program once you’ve mastered them. After loading your rice and water into the inner pan and choosing the type of rice you are making from the menu, the microcomputerized "Fuzzy logic" temperature control system calculates the exact cooking time (usually between 45 and 70 minutes) and programs it for you. The Fuzzy microchip combined with the unit’s spherical heating system, which cooks on all sides of the inner pan, ensure perfect rice every time without burning or overcooking. You can also set the timer manually in 30-minute increments for cooking times of up to 13 hours. When cooking is complete, the cooker beeps eight times and automatically shifts into a Keep Warm mode, which keeps rice warm for up to 12 hours after cooking is complete. An Extended Keep Warm function warms rice for up to 8 hours at a lower temperature and reduces the chance of rice drying out or becoming discolored or odorous. If rice is still not eaten by then, there is another opportunity to give it a warmup of between 5 and 15 minutes using the Reheat key.

The inner pan has a nonstick coating for easy cleaning and the lid’s stainless-steel underside also wipes clean much effort. The rice cooker has a plastic handle for transporting it from cabinet to counter and a retractable cord for easy storage. This appliance comes with a spatula and spatula holder and is covered by a limited 1-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Best rice cooker ever
I have had this model for over a year and I have never been disappointed. This model has a quick cooking feature which I use a lot, it is so convenient, it cooks the rice quickly and beautifully and beeps to let you know when it is done. When the rice finishes cooking the machine turns itself to the warming mode and simply keeps the rice warm and ready to serve. I finally have the perfect rice which most restaraunts can not hold a candle to.
I like jasmine, sticky and plain white rice and they all cook great in here, I have also cooked rice for sushi and made puerto rican arroz con gandules in here, all were done perfect!

Second Zoji Rice Cooker
I had never used the "fuzzy logic" style rice cooker before. I've owned a classic Zoji rice cooker, the one button style with absolutely no trouble. I decided finally to upgrade to a 10 cup and Zoji impressed me again! This is a great rice cooker that makes it virtually impossible to screw up rice. I thought having an LCD would be pointless, but the count down timer makes it easy to judge just how long I've got till the rice is done. I really like it, I highly recommend!

Perfect rice cooker
We have been eating rice almost daily. I decided to buy a Zojirushi when my 3 years-old Aroma rice cooker started to smell really bad after I cooked porridge once. Besides, I have always envy the rice I have had in those japanese restraunts and wondered why my own rice cooker just can't make it right. I decided to get this model because it is not too expensive, although it doesn't have that many features. ... I tried white rice and porridge. They all turned out perfect. Most amazing thing is it didn't leave any mess on the inner lid as my old Aroma rice cooker did everytime. I'm very happy with this product. I will not buy any other brands no matter how inexpensive they are.
