Zojirushi 5.5 cup Induction Heating Rice Cooker and Warmer Black NW-QAC10: Stainless Steel, BPA-Free, 12 Settings

We bought this for the GABA brown feature, and it does make amazing GABA brown rice! However, it has an anoyingly loud fan that runs at high speed the entire time the heating circuitry is on (nearly 3 hours for GABA brown). Almost sent it back, but we'll suffer the noise for the great rice. (Our 23-year old Zojirushi has been silently making rice ~ 3 days per week the entire time, and refused to die, so it's packed away in the basement as a backup.)

Looks and feels high quality. I mostly cook jasmine and brown rice and they turn out great. Owned it for a few months and no problems so far.

I saw the price of this and thought to myself, “wow, this is a lot for a rice cooker!” After using it for over a month, if you’re debating, stop and buy it. This makes your rice so unbelievably perfect with no under or overcooked grains of rice. If you eat rice daily, like me, then this is a game changer!

So far using my new cooker has been very nice. The controls are easy to use, and cleaning is much easier than with my previous rice cooker, with less worry about moisture outside of the cooking bowl. I have used it to cook white rice, mixed rice (jambalaya), curry rice, steamed vegetables and even steamed meat buns and dumplings to great taste.

Executes great for what it’s intended to do. Great rice, great oatmeal. Well made. Very easy to cleanup. Keep warm function is great at not drying out food for lengthy periods. Glad we purchased.

My wife and I have never owned a rice cooker and decided it would help now that we have twins! anything to make our lives easier and this thing is amazing. We have tried each type of setting and grain like rice, oats, quinoa, and each time it is perfection. We really wish we got it sooner. It's small enough that we can store it away after each use and still use it daily. All the pieces are easy to clean and simple to assemble. Really all around perfect and glad we got it.

Excellent experience so far; brown rice, steel cut oats, spelt berries, farro and fresh steamed vegetables have all come out of this little machine perfectly. I'm terrible at cooking rice and grains on the stove so cost vs. ease of use in my case makes this rice maker completely worth it. I have no complaints about the length of time any grain takes to cook because the results are amazing and it's easy enough to plan ahead. It's also easy to clean.

I love it so much, my rice has never been this way before and eating rice will never be the same again!

cooked up perfect short grain white, jasmine and mixed white rice so far. every grain was consistently the same texture. made for great egg fried rice with leftovers the next day as well. also great with steaming broccolli and carrots as an addition to my meal. super easy to clean and compact package made it easy to store.

I'm not foodie and I can't wax on in great detail about rice. But what I can say is we eat a lot of rice and this cooker will make it restaurant grade. We've done at least 6 batches of rice in the first few weeks and each time it's been great. Operation is very simple once you figure out the menus (it took me 10 mins) and cleaning this is ridiculously easy. The bowl is bonkers thick and really smooth/slick. Dried rice wipes off after a 10 minute soak in water (if you don't clean it right after use). The construction of this is rock solid and the details they paid attention to are impressive: 1) A ridge that is high enough to prevent water going into the induction heat bowl, 2) handle dips so you can take the bowl out easily, 3) lid removal is impossibly simple, etc. My only critique is that the fan of this model was louder than expected and you'll definitely know when this is cooking rice from the fan noise. But it's worth looking beyond that for the features and the quality of rice this produces. It has a dedicated space on the kitchen counter because it looks so nice and is more compact than I expected. We did buy an extra bowl anticipating it will wear out while the cooker is still going strong. We're very very pleased with this model and hope it gives us many years of quality cooked rice.

attractive, easy to use, easy cleaning. Rice came out well cooked and fluffy. Worth the price!

For the price of this device there were several things we instantly noticed/missed from our Neuro Fuzzy. 1) The cord is not retractable and we use the rice cooker quite a lot so it's inconvenient to stuff it back behind the device. 2) this was our first induction rice cooker and did not realize how loud it is when cooking and continual beeping when rice is being kept warm. It is livable but not ideal. 3) There's no rice paddle holder so we are constantly knocking over the rice paddle when it's standing on the counter next to the cooker as intended, it ends up being laid out on top of the device instead. 4) There is no handle to pick up and move the cooker, our Neuro Fuzzy had a handle we could swing up from behind which came in handy more often than one would think.

I had the previous version of the induction rice cooker but decided to upgrade to the newest version. I liked the flat top and the built in steam vent, as well as the self cleaning function, although I have not tried it yet. I have used it once so far, for basmati rice, and it cooked flawlessly. It looks beautiful and stores easily in my cabinet. At first I missed the handle, but it actually is easier to store since the indents on the bottom make it easier to maneuver in and out of the cabinet. I loved the previous version and I am sure I will love this upgrade as well. Plus it’s gorgeous!

Small, shiek, easy to use, makes perfect rice, induction is super fast

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rice cooker is top notched, I usually use it weekly so easy and so simple to use. There’s different settings to choose from you just wash your rice add water and go on about your business. And it makes a little sting when finished even will keep your rice warm for you. I would also like to mention it does much more then just rice it can do sushi, stem vegetables aa it comes with a steam basket so it does so much more then just rice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always wanted a rice cooker as I am not the best cook & never mastered a perfect rice and this one goes above & beyond. It is very easy to use, very easy to clean & keep clean and perfect for making fluffy rice that will stay warm until you are ready with the rest of your meal. My perfect rice was made in about an hour and I have used it about 6 times since I received it. I will now graduate to other grains (quinoa, etc.) now that I have mastered fluffy, evenly cooked white & jasmine rice and can't wait to see what else I can add to my meal prep for the week. This Zojirushi Induction Rice Cooker is amazing! I would highly recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Set up is easy and the instructions are simple to follow. I love how my rice turned out when using this rice cooker. It definitely is nice to not have to worry about it to much once you put the food in. I’ve also used it for vegetables. I’m very happy with this product. Definitely worth it! I can’t wait to use it during the holidays coming up.

So far only cooking white rice and congee is so good. Haven't got the chance to prepare the rest. The price is on the high side but the way it cook is awesome, it's a keeper for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this rice cooker a couple of times now and I have to say that it is great. The instructions are simple and the machine is easy to use. The rice cooker is fast and the rice does not stick to it at all. The cooker its self is very sleek and small which makes it easy to store without taking up a lot of space. I would highly recommend this cooker to anyone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first it was a bit confusing but using the instruction booklet helped as it goes through each step thoroughly. The machine is very sturdy and has a little weight to it. The size of the cooking pot is nice and shows the variety of cups needed to use for each rice dish.. It is very easy to clean. I like the multiple rice options and the added steamer option is a great feature. The automatic timer seems long but ended early due to its temperature control built in. The rice was nice and fluffy, very east to set and go. The automatic temperature regulates the correct time needed for each type of rice you are using so it never overcooks. The warming feature keeps it nice and warm after cooking so it is still hot when you are ready to serve and eat. Love this cooker so much.
