I love my Zojirushi!

June 17th, 2009 at 04:56 pm

So I finally broke down few days ago and bought it.
I looked at it for a long time and could not bring myself to spend $140 on a rice cooker, when I can buy one for $20.



I just kept thinking about it.
I read the reviews and everyone raved about it. And I really wanted a small - 3 cup one (since there are only 2 of us) and excellent rice cooker.

So it got delivered yesterday, and I used it twice. I made brown basmati rice for dinner - it was the best brown rice, just perfect. It takes 1 hour 40 minutes , but it really does it properly.

And I made oatmeal (on timer) for breakfast this morning. Also perfect - same consistency throughout, nothing burned, no crust (that almost never happens for me), nothing stuck to the pot. So much better than in a slow-cooker!

I finally bought it because DH wants steel-cut oatmeal for breakfast and the slow cooker we had kind of burned it if the portion was too small (the slow cooker is big). And DH burned my favorite pot recently when he had a day off and tried to cook oatmeal on stove top. Evidently it did not occur to him that he needed to stir it - he just left the it on the fire for 40 minutes and went to do something else. You can imagine the result.

    I haven't heard of it but it looks great. We seem to go through cheap rice cookers rather quickly anyway. Sounds like a good investment, for sure.

    OMG its so cute!

    we have a 6-8 cup rice cooker, but it does 1-2 cups perfectly as well. we must have lucked out on rice cookers, have had this one for over three years now. lots of friends have rice cookers that spill gooey slime over the top, burn it or can't scrape the rice off the pan, ours is just fine. it was half price, bought it for $30.

    looks very space-agey! cute! If you do use it often, itīs great. When I was married, we really used our rice cooker. Now, we donīt use it as much (maybe 3 or 4 times a year!)
