I purchased my Zojirushi Magnetic Induction Rice Cooker because I wanted a first rate cooker. I knew that I would be getting a high-quality product simply because it is 100% engineered and manufactured in Japan. I was also curious how the "Magnetic Induction" worked and what benefits it provided over traditional heating coil-based cookers.
As it turns out, the magnetic induction thing is very, very nice. There is no heating coil at the bottom of this cooker. Instead, magnets are cycled on and off around the pan causing it to heat up perfectly evenly. The thing that amazed me about this cooker is that the traditional "skin" of browned, crusty rice always found at the bottom of other cookers is totally absent. Every single grain of rice you put in is wonderfully cooked coming out.
While this cooker has a large capacity, it handles small quantities wonderfully. As a single bachelor/student, I can't say enough how nice it is to be able to cook only a single cup of rice when I need it. In traditional coil-based cookers, if you want a single cup of rice, you have to cook one and a half or two, because quite a bit becomes crusty/burned at the bottom of the pan. Not with this cooker!
I also have yet to come across a variety of rice that this cooker could not handle. I've used it to cook aromatic Indian basimati rice, wild rice, rice for sushi, Asian white rice, and wild rice medleys. Every single one has come out perfect.
Clean-up is a breeze. The pan simply lifts up and out with two nice plastic handles; they're cool to the touch... no oven mitts required! The non-stick is the highest quality I've ever encountered. It feels as though the inner pot is armor plated. One swipe, a rinse, and it's ready to go again.
To be sure, this cooker is at the high end of the price scale. Having said that, in light of the build quality, cooking excellence, and ease of cleaning... it was worth every penny!
