Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zojirushi NS-KCC05 Micom Programmable 3-Cup Rice Cooker & WarmerCustomer Review: GREAT! Summary: 5 StarsI have been a fan of Zojirushi rice cookers since we lived in Japan, almost 20 years ago. However, I am working out of town and needed something small to make breakfast just for myself instead of our family of 5. 10 years ago I was in a similar situation and bought the very bottom of the small capacity Zojirushi line, which I do not recommend unless you can't afford anything else from Zojirushi because it does not have a steam trap (it spits a lot while cooking) and it does not have a timer although it otherwise works well. I chose this product this time because it had the smallest possible capacity AND it had a timer, and because ... yes, it is cute. Aesthetically, I don't like brushed steel or beige plastic. I don't need lots of fancy settings; I just want consistently excellent white rice, which this appliance delivers effortlessly (it will even remember your timer setting, which is clock based, not duration based). The user guide was harder to use than expected but it still didn't take long to figure out how to use the timer. It has a small, compact footprint so I was able to squeeze it onto the counter between the sink and my housemate's microwave. The materials are surprisingly sturdy and well designed for being almost the bottom of the product line. The one thing I don't like about it is the lack of a holder for the rice paddle. This does not strike me as an expensive piece of the cooker and it is so handy (and included in other Zojirushi models) that it seems out of character not to have it. If I could have my 'druthers, I would get one that was even smaller (even one scoop of rice makes more than I need just for me but I wouldn't want to try any less in that diameter) but they don't make one smaller.
Description of Zojirushi NS-KCC05 Micom Programmable 3-Cup Rice Cooker & WarmerZojirushi Micom 3 Cup Rice Cooker "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
