purchased spring of 2013 I believe, label on unit says made in China. Works great, it is used 3 - 5 times a week with white or brown rice.

I thought it was Japanese when I ordered it, but, unfortunately, stamped on the bottom of the scale are the words: "Made in China"

According to the plate on the bottom of the vacuum, it was made in Hungary. I assume this is the country and not the name of a new manufacturing city in China. There was a story going around in the 1950's that because of post WWII opposition to Japanese merchandise sold in America, they renamed a manufacturing city in Japan as Usa, so items made there would state: MADE IN USA.

I'm pretty sure it's made in China. I don't have the unit here to look at, but I think I remember noticing that. Maybe someone else will know.

No, China which disappointed me. I believe the more expensive model is made in Japan.

Mine says made in Japan, but I've had it since 2004. However, the Zojirushi rice maker I bought in July was made in China.

Correction.Correction:The other purchaser is correct. Product made in China for a Japanese company

If it does not say...it's China. Otherwise, it would be marked so as to justify the asking price. Unfortunately, China has not reached the high manufacturing standards that Japan has achieved. I have a Cuisinart stock pot where "France" is stamped on both handles to let you know where pot was made...and price is higher of course.

Suppose to be Made in Japan, but you will receive Made in China one if you buy it from Amazon. Poor quality knock offs, don't buy it here.

If not mention, then it is China. Otherwise they will emblazon "made in USA" or "made in France" to justify a higher price. China, in terms of quality of products made there is still light years behind Japan.

It's a Japanese company, but mine says made in China. I have been using it every day for 12 years and it still works fine.
