Zojirushi NS-YAC10 5.5-Cup Rice Cooker

I am using one (Panasonic) bought ~10 years ago, still runs strong.

I have one of these and an induction. Go for the induction. Only about $60 more.

I bought two tiger rice cookers, both of them died in about a year. No accident, just died without any sign.

I bought one Zojirushi cooker(with induction heat) from newegg many years ago, it lasted about ~6-7 years with heavy useage(I kept rice warming all day long). One day I washed the body of the rice cooker with water because it's kind of dirty on outside, the water killed it, it won't start.

I bought another Zojirushi cooker with induction heat from Kohls, cost me about $200 with a 40% off coupon. It's made in Japan, I hope it can work another five years //@anonymous: What the advantages of this over the eighty bucks in Costco? I believe that brand is Tiger.

Sort of like comparing Trek Bike vs Diamondback Bike //@Anonymous: What the advantages of this over the eighty bucks in Costco? I believe that brand is Tiger.

Notice it says the lowest in “history “....got it!;-) //@anonymous: who are still use this kind of rice cooker sound like still lived on last century.

I paid about $80 from COSTO for the 5.5cup one a few years ago.

who are still use this kind of rice cooker sound like still lived on last century.

I almost changed one rice cooker every year due to various problems. Then I changed my staples to bread. Much easier and peace of mind ever since! //@Anonymous: I have exactly the same experiences. //@anonymous: Bought one several years ago. Yes, the cooking results were pretty good, but after a couple of years, the cooker was dead, and its warranty had expired. Googled online, found a lot of complaints about the same problem, and it turned out the problem was due to the failure of its control chip, and couldn't be easily fixed by common people.

It means you're forced to buy a new one. Nice marketing strategy.

Thank you for sharing... so did you just throw it away? Do you still want to buy the same product? //@anonymous: Bought one several years ago.

I'm not a robot.
