If I were to spring $80-100 for a rice cooker I'd go with the CUCKOO.

1. it has a battery which continues even after unplugged and one of the reviews mentions that it runs out in 3 years and unit wouldn't work afterwards until it is sent to manufacturer for replacement
2) I am buying for the steamer + cook together function which isn't advertised with either zoji or cuckoo
And even when the ratio is right, the cooker's design has a major flaw where it will drip water onto the rice when its keeping warm. So, if you keep it longer than a few hours, half your rice will get wet and soggy due to the dripping condensation while the other half gets dried out. I returned mine and replaced it with the similarly priced Cuckoo model which does not have this problem and will hold rice well for several days.
I totally agree that this rice cooker does not tolerate variance in rice/water ratio well.
Very true. Most of the non-fuzzy logic units can be very particular about ratios and generally don't allow you to keep the rice beyond a few hrs. But they will
Make a decent 🍚 if you stay with in those parameters. It is good to have options.
But there are a few shortcomings in the design, especially when it comes to cleaning:
Inner lid with the rubber seal does not come off. Got to clean it with a wet cloth or paper towels. To make matter worse, the whole lid is not detachable (see below).
No condensation pan/container like the Zojirushi, so when you open the lid after rice is cooked, you get a fair bit of condensation running down the inner lid onto to the ledge area around the metal bowl. Luckily there is a groove/depression area to contain some of the condensation. Some of the condensation will drip onto the rice making for soggy spots. So you need a dry rag to soak and dry off the condensation to avoid any dripping down to the heating element.
And the whole lid is not detactable, so can't take if off to clean it.
In hindsight, I would probably pay more for a rice cooker that does not have the above shortcomings but that's just me. And I suspect most people probably would be happy with it despite the shortcomings.

But isn't Tiger is a better brand for rice cooker than Zojirushi and Cuckoo.
I only buy rice cooker one every 10 years or so so I'm not really keeping up with the. current
