Product Description: Zojirushi Micom 3 Cup Rice Cooker
Amazon.com Review: "Micom" means this sleek rice cooker is computer-controlled and ultra high-tech, from its spherical, nonstick pan to its "surround heating" system to its LCD clock and timer. (Program the cooker in the morning and have hot rice available immediately after work.) It not only cooks up to 3 cups of dry rice, but offers a choice of white/brown, mixed, sweet, and porridge settings. A quick-cooking option cuts time by 10 minutes. Rice is automatically kept at warm for hours, and a reheat feature brings it back to serving temperature. Instructions and a cooking chart explain everything. At 10-3/4 by 8-1/2 by 8 inches, it's remarkably compact and also lightweight. Transport it by its handle. Cord retracts for storage. --Fred Brack

Rating: - Rice and oatmeal too
I had been using a $20 rice cooker for my morning oatmeal and got tired of the frequent and unpredictable boilover events, all the while kept trying to find some combination of operation without the lid or propping up the lid with a spoon that would not create a mess on the counter. I finally bit the bullet and bought the Zojirushi NS-KCC05. I am extremely satisfied with it. It makes perfect oatmeal, with no hint of wanting to boil over. The timer is an unexpected and much appreciated feature. It makes the long (about an hour) cooking time not a problem.
Rating: - My Little Buddy!!! Makes Perfectly Cooked Rice Every Time!! Compact, Quick and Efficient!!!!!!!!!
This great little rice cooker is a godsend - a blessing!! It meets and exceeds all of my expectations!
In the two years that I've had it, I'd like to say that I've got nothing but good praises and great appreciation for this unit!! It cooks enough rice to accommodate up to six people at 1/2 a cup apiece!! And it does it with such great precision and efficiency!
And if you can't serve the rice when it's done, the cooker will automatically go into the Keep Warm setting. So that you'll have hot rice e3ven if it's about 20 minutes later!!
Rating: - How did I ever get by without one?
Having owned a much cheaper rice cooker that never managed to cook nice rice, I took a chance on this one. Boy am I glad I did! It is worth the price, no question. I am a total Zojirushi convert and I will never be without one again. This thing is a little odd looking but it's just beautifully engineered.

Hi, We love this little rice maker, it's the perfect size for the countertop and makes perfect stickyrice every time. warming feature is very useful and doesn't dry out the rice. Owned ~ 2yrs & love it, no problems! Highly Recommended.
Rating: - A wonderful machine!
I have been using this rice cooker almost daily for four years. It has worked flawlessly for me. The non-stick liner really works - I have never had rice stick to the bottom. I really like this machine because it can cook small amounts of rice. I usually cook 1/2 cup of rice for my wife and I and it works great. The timer function is really handy. If you are looking for a small capacity rice cooker that will not give you any problems - this is the one! My highest possible endorsement.
