I love my Zojirushi NS-ZCC10... and I know this one's technically better/faster with pressure cooking functionality, but paying almost $400 for a rice cooker seems a little ridiculous..

Last year for Prime Day, my wife and I (Asian household, FWIW) bought the Zojirushi ZCC10, this Zojirushi HCC10XH, and a Cuckoo CR-0375.

Over the course of 2 weeks, we did extensive testing because I'm a former engineer - and she's a very patient woman to tolerate my neuroses.

We made five types of grains with each: Jasmine, brown, gaba rice, sushi, and quinoa.

We compared the 3 cookers against each other and also against a stovetop method.

Each time we made a batch, we did a blind taste test to each other.

I can say with confidence that we tasted no discernible difference in flavor or texture among the 3 rice cookers for any of the 5 grains. 1/3 of the time one of us could identify the stovetop batch, but that's about it.

In terms of power consumption, I connected each cooker to a separate smart outlet with power monitoring.

In calculating the power cost in cooking the grains + keeping warm for on average 12 hours, I also observed, surprisingly, that there was no meaningful power savings between the induction and non-induction models.

Ultimately, we returned the Zojirushi because, setting aside the emotional and aesthetic attachments, our experience concluded the 3-8x cost premium was not merited.

that much money for a cooker that has a nonstick inner pot, not stainless or ceramic. that is a lot to get nonstick. I like my Panda rice cooker for 109 and it never goes on sale I waited and waited then bought it.

I've had many rice tasting over many decades between Japanese and Korean rice cookers. Between different Zorijrushi models with fuzzy logic, no difference in taste between the 3 different heating methods. Same with Cuckoo. The major difference is cooking time saved with pressure rice cooker. The only complaints against pressure cooked rice was the quick drying out in warm mode less than 24hrs.
