FYI amazon.co.jp now can ship to US. the JPY currency is very attempting.

For example this is tiger brand IH rice cook, including shipping as 24000 JPY as $177
https://www.amazon.co.jp/Thermos-...08B1HRQHR/

Similarly priced at 300 at Amazon US. https://www.amazon.com/TIGER-cook...016BH7KHG/

You can find all best rice cooker from Tiger/zojirushi/Panasonic/Toshiba, 100% made in Japan. Amazon JP can search English without pain.
I bought mine from Amazon JP 8 years ago, working perfectly with US 110V-120V, cooking daily with all kinds of ingredients, no problem at all.

update:
My bad, I forgot to mention one thing: all are made in Japan, including manuals and operation panel labels. NO English. But Google translate is always helpful. Bottom line, similar models for US market are designed same so their manuals will work too.

I regret buying the Tiger rice cooker. I bought this 2 years ago to replace my 8 year old Panasonic rice cooker due to scratched inner pot.
1. The rice cooker can only save one timer, while my older one supports 2 timers. This is a big hassle for me.
2. It can never cook the brown rice right. It is always too soggy for my taste and it takes over an hour and half to cook brown rice.
3. The results of cooking short grain white rice is also disappointing. I typically have to go with a bit smaller amount of water than suggested, otherwise the cooked rice is bit stickier.
4. The inner pot is noticeable lighter compared to Panasonic one, which I suspect to result poor cooking results.

If you are picky about rice, I would not recommend the Tiger one.

This is JBV-A10U, which doesn't have timer/porridge function, it's also not [amazon.com]made in Japan FWIW. OP's model(JBV-S10U) has all these features and is made in japan. IMO at this price($79.99) this rice cooker is hard to beat - rice cookers from zojirushi or other famous Asian competitors typically charges for $90~$200 if you want all of the functionalities(steam, porridge, rice, timer etc).
for example

Zojirushi NS-TSC10 5-1/2-Cup (Uncooked) Micom Rice Cooker and Warmer, 1.0-Liter https://a.co/d/ge5cCBY
timer, porridge, steam, rice, $180

Zojirushi NS-LGC05XB Micom Rice Cooker & Warmer, 3-Cups (uncooked), Stainless Black https://a.co/d/aUihoqu
no steam, $150

CUCKOO CR-0675F | 6-Cup (Uncooked) Micom Rice Cooker | 13 Menu Options: Quinoa, Oatmeal, Brown Rice & More, Touch-Screen, Nonstick Inner Pot | White https://a.co/d/7k13Ooc
no steam, $95

Toshiba Digital Programmable Rice Cooker, Steamer & Warmer, 3 Cups Uncooked Rice with Fuzzy Logic and One-Touch Cooking, 24 Hour Delay Timer and Auto Keep Warm Feature, White https://a.co/d/beM0pto
no steam, $85

Zojirushi NS-RPC10FJ Rice Cooker and Warmer, 5.5-Cup (Uncooked), Tulip https://a.co/d/i0r2t8u
just rice, no timer/porridge/steam, $110

Panasonic 10 Cup (Uncooked) Rice Cooker with Fuzzy Logic and One-Touch Cooking for Brown Rice, White Rice, and Porridge or Soup – 1.8 Liter – SR-DF181 (White) https://a.co/d/7aLnMHk
no timer/steam, $90

…
I only trust these famous Asian brands that are known to cook delicious rice. If you really want all these functionalities and is not so picky about the deliciousness of the rice, Aroma is the way to go. If you worry about TPFE on the inner coat, choose some rice cooker with ceramic inner pot. Otherwise, go with this tiger rice cooker. It cooks rice as delicious as some cheaply-made(but is priced for $$$) IH rice cookers if you are just cooking for a few cups. If I really have to complain something about it, then it's that you cannot detach the top lid which makes it a little bit hard to clean.

Thanks for the Cuckoo one. My wife told me about it today and j couldn't find it through searching on Costco.com. Even found a Costco.com link through Google that led to "Not Found" page.

I got the Cuckoo one in 2020 December for $70 at Costco. It works great.

Damn same question. Tiger, you can take out the inner lid to wash but the cuckoo can not.

That is not true. We took off the inner lid on the Cuckoo one to wash every time after use.

How good is the tiger vs the cuckoo crp fa0610f (what I currently have)
My cuckoo is going on 15 years strong now but has been acting up lately

---I could replace the cuckoo for $200

It looks like I have to create a new Amazon JP account. Is the shipping FREE?
