People who are looking for the best rice cooker that money can buy usually think that a Zojirushi Micom is about as good as it gets. The truth is, however, that a Sanyo 10 cup ECJ-D100S rice cooker will stand up against a Micom any day, and usually come out even, if not winning by a mile. Now, the Zojirushi rice cooker is great, but it simply doesn't have the features and performance I've come to expect from a Sanyo rice cooker.
Both can prepare, white rice, brown rice, or even Haigi, sweet and mixed rice to perfection every time. Both have steaming trays that are superb for preparing fresh vegetables and meats. A steamed fish fillet is one of the flakiest, tenderest morsels you' ever taste, and the flavor is really quite remarkable. Both types or rice cooker are even able to make soups and stews, and have automatic warmers that keep the foods ready to eat for hours, but the Sanyo goes an extra distance, and keep your food fresh and rice fluffy for up to twice as long as their competitors.
And no other company that makes rice cookers offer a tofu function as a drawing feature. A Sanyo rice cooker allows you to cook tofu, and some models even have functions specifically for your own home-baked bread. As far as variety of uses goes, the Sanyo rice cooker is far ahead of the crowd, turning a rice cooker into the equivalent of several kitchen appliances, and that saves room, and hassle, especially for people with limited kitchen space.
Both brands have non-stick inner cooking pans, but most people who have tried both prefer the titanium coating of the Sanyo rice cooker, by a slim margin. The curved bottoms of both brands provide even distribution of the heat. For bowl design and cleaning, the Sanyo rice cooker gets the top score, even if only by a hair.
And when it comes to cost, the Zojirushi, which you probably thought was more expensive, comes in as a lower cost than a Sanyo 10 cup rice cooker. The Micom is not the cheapest rice cooker on the market, but Sanyo is still going to be a little pricier. As they say, quality comes at a price, and in this Sanyo definitely delivers, for a little bit more.
When all of the factors have been put together, the surprising winner, both with owners and rice cooker reviews, is the Sanyo. It provides a greater degree of functionality, is a little more user friendly, and has the durability that only comes from the best rice cooker on the market. The Sanyo 10 cup rice maker is large enough for gatherings, but still compact enough to be put away on a shelf when not in use, and the retractable cord was a helpful and innovative idea.
