ZOJIRUSHINL-GAC18BM 10 Cup (Uncooked) Umami Micom Rice Cooker and Warmer (Metallic Black)

For me that I eat roce 4+ days a week… great investment! Cook great!

Great product, zojirushi knows how to build quality appliances I’m extremely happy with my rice cooker.

This rice cooker has many functions. The rice is delicious and the pan is easy to clean

I bought this one to replace my nearly 20 years old and trusty NS-ZCC18, which finally bit the dust over one incidence or another. Since it doesn't seem to make sense to buy the same one again, I thought I'd get something else more current and this one does not disappoint in terms of all the features and I am especially looking forward to the GABA Brown function.Pros:extensive cooking menu choicessuper easy to use, barely need to glance at manual, though it's recommendedslow cook and steamer functionCons:lid is not as easy to close as the NS-ZCC18 that easily snaps with satisfying clickcooking pot feels thin and light and no longer has a pair of handles like the old one, lifting the pot from the cooker while it's hot is going to be challengingpower cable is detachable and not auto retractableI almost feel they should just plug in the new cooking chip to NS-ZCC18 and maybe if they want to paint a new color, but I think the physical design of that old trusty is superior. if you are not cooking anything other than basic jasmine rice I would certainly refer you to NS-ZCC18 instead.

Just signed for it, opened the box, wanted to make some rice, saw a little dent on the side facing me and thought it was strange, flipped it over and saw a MASSIVE dent and crack, went to the back of the machine and saw it was totally coming off. This is pretty embarrassing.EDIT:Got a new Zojirushi NL-GAC18 BM shipped out and have tried it. It is very nice, and I do like it. It's unfortunate that someone used the first product that was shipped as a golf ball.
