Product Description
The Induction Heating System Rice Cooker & Warmer uses a high-tech Induction Heating (IH) method to heat the inner cooking pan. Because of this heating method, rice cooks exceptionally well. This IH Rice Cooker also features easy-to-clean clear-coated stainless steel exterior, healthy cooking options such as brown rice, GABA BROWN and germinated brown rice settings, and an interchangeable melody and beep signal. GABA BROWN is a way of cooking brown rice to ?activate? it and increase naturally occurring gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an amino acid in brown rice believed to have health giving properties such as lowering blood pressure, improving kidney function and relieving stress. The brown rice is ?activated? by soaking the rice at 104F for 2 hours before the actual cooking begins. Other features include automatic keep warm, extra large LCD display for Clock and Timer functions and detachable inner lid.

 Fantastic rice! December 25, 2008
Christofer Hoff (Boxborough, MA)
This is a simple review to write...this unit is fantastic; best rice we've ever had, esp. the gaba rice!
I only wish the timer would tell you how long it has to cook...
Other than that, fantastic. It keeps rice warm for as long as you want and cooks evenly and perfectly every time.
pay the money December 21, 2008

I have gone through 2 cheap rice cookers. It was very nice not to have water all over the counter or burnt rice on the bottom of the pot. I am glad I upgraded and paid the money for a wonderful rice cooker.
Worth every cent December 10, 2008

The difference between a el chepo $25 rice cooker and a fancy neuro fuzzy model was impressed upon me by my colleague. After tasting the rice made by a Sanyo neuro fuzzy rice cooker I resolved to buy a good quality Japanese rice cooker. I brought this rice cooker after looking at all the wonderful reviews here on amazon and other places in the Internet. The rice cooker has lived up to its hype and much more. It really is worth the 5 star reviews.
First let me start off with the white rice. It cooks each grain perfectly to the right level of crunchiness. When using the GABA function for the brown rice the grains are just perfectly cooked and very tasty. It is almost like rediscovering rice all over again. We like our rice a little bit more sticky so we add around 10% more water than what the measurements on the pot indicate and the rice turns out perfect every time. The porridge (congee) tastes phenomenal. A combination of sweet rice, black rice and some raisins makes for a wonderful breakfast in the morning. We have also tried cornmeal porridge and oatmeal porridge with great success.
When it comes to white rice there is not such a noticeable difference between this cooker and one of the cheap versions except that the rice is cooked more uniformly. This cooker really shines when making porridge or brown rice. If you are looking to just cook white rice all the time then you might want to look elsewhere. If you want to try brown rice or porridge then invest in this cooker. You will not regret it.
Everything people say--fantastic December 9, 2008

We've had this for two weeks and used it 10 times already, for oatmeal (steel cut oats, NOT quick-cook version, use the porridge setting), sushi rice (to make onigiri rice balls), regular rice. We like the larger model because we like to make lunches for the entire week ahead of time. Needless to say, no more rice-water scum all over the stove, wasted rice stuck to the bottom of the pan. It's great, and easy to use, easy to clean. You'll wonder how you ever had rice without it.

This rice cooker is the one to get; it's pricier than the aluminum models, but it's made in Japan (not China), and everything inside and out is stainless steel. Everything about it is good, except possibly for the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star music it plays when it starts...you can change it but I haven't figured out how yet.
