This rice cooker is super cute, however, the bowl is just too small. Think tiny... I love the look, but have to return because it's too small to be practical. Make enough rice for 2.
The machine works great although it is very slow, even to steam vegetables. The instructions aren't worth the paper they're printed on. Experimentation works best.
I really hesitated to buy this rice cooker because of the price. If I hadn't found it on [...], I probably would have purchased a less expensive one. But it does a really good job, it's far more attractive than any of the others I've seen (which means it will stay on the counter and get used more often), and it has the options I need (sushi, risotto and steam settings). I've always used a cast iron pot for rice, and never had any complaints about the results. But I have to admit that it's nice to put this on a timer and come home to finished rice, kept warm until I'm ready to eat it.
My only real complaint is that no user's manual was included with it. I nearly returned it after one attempt to use it, because I thought it wasn't working correctly. I used the water to rice ratio on the rice package, and expected to find finished rice in the half hour that the package said it would take to cook. At half an hour, I still had crunchy rice and just barely hot water. After checking Zojirushi's site to see if they had a user's manual, I decided to give it one more trial before packing it up. I'm glad now that I did, but I wish a manual had been provided with it in the first place.
