I bought this exact model back in 2016 from the Macy's deal and it just died. (A battery replacement would not resurrect it) Even back then It was $116 to the door in a no-sales tax state.

It is a great start into Zojirushi as a brand and is about mid-level gear with respect to their other rice cooker models. It is rock solid and plays a cool song when the rice is done. I'd expect one to run well for somewhere between 5-8 years.
We are a just a couple but eat a lot of rice (including non cooker dishes). It got used once or twice a week for its lifespan. We cook short and long grain rice, basmati, wild rice and sushi rice. I also used it for non-plain rice dishes like pork fried rice and rice pudding. It worked well in all styles I tossed at it.

I had a Zojirushi rice cooker that was the best but the pot got chipped up and while I could get a replacement it cost more than the rice cooker. I bought this one during the last sale and I found it doesn't cook rice as good as the last one. You need less water than recommended or the end product is just as bad as cooking it on the stove. The rice is less sticky if you leave it sit on warm for at least a half hour after it's done. The cooked rice dries out on the warmer setting if left in the pot over a day. I don't know what the difference is between this cooker and my last one. I think this is good for convenience but you have to spend a lot more to get consistently great rice every time you use your rice cooker.

How do you typically clean the rice pot?

It is non-stick and slips right out of the machine. It is super easy to clean and use but does scratch up easy so be aware of that

Is evidence of a significant difference in quality in the Chinese made model?
