Japan all the way. I bought it on Amazon maybe 2 years ago and its an amazing rice cooker. In fact, I'm so impressed with Zojirushi quality, I bought their CD-WBC40 4 water boiler.

Mind if I ask what store you usually find it at? I can't find it anywhere and refuse to spend $70 :(

there are two different brands. I discovered that the Hape one was better built. If you found the Hape one for cheaper grab it!

I found I didn't love this model- dried out my rice too much so I bought a zojirushi instead. It has a rubber knob you pull and the top pops out for easy cleaning more expensive but I like it better

Zojirushi is a Japan-based company. The bottle itself says "Made in Thailand". I own many Zojirushi products and have always found them top notch, and this is no exception.

They appear to be the same. If I read the ad right on amazon they're asking $60 ? I would buy off of the other site for half that. They're nice soup crocks but really, do they need to cost all that much ? It is soup after all. However, they are a good buy at $30. Enjoy them whatever you decide ! Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays !

Are you sure it's not in Japanese? Formal written Japanese has a lot of Chinese characters but you can tell the difference if once in awhile there's some really curvy characters. Zojirushi is a Japanese brand so yeah, it would have Japanese packaging.

There is no difference besides the name. This one is a legit figuarts, just a few dollars cheaper.

Having spent a lot of time in Japan, I got used to the style of rice cooked there, which is (by design) stickier than we are used to here in North America. I bought a Japanese rice cooker with the understanding and expectation that it would cook stickier rice. Your Zojirushi rice will never turn out like the Minute Rice ads where each grain is a separate, light and fluffy unit - it's just not how it's meant to be. Some people don't care for the stickier consistency and you may be one of them. If that's the case, you would likely be happier with a different kind of cooker. It sounds as though the Sanyo model mentioned by "Zammer" may be more to your taste. "Good" is in the mouth of the beholder. :) Having spent a lot of time in Japan, I got used to the style of rice cooked there, which is (by design) stickier than we are used to here in North America.

Yes....but it's a top of the line Zojirushi. Don't let that sway you. It is one of the best I've ever had. Excellent rice cooker.

The Zojirushi BB-CEC20 has 2 paddles. But....It's $250. Looks like a great machine, but the cost is higher.

They are the same thing, just different packaging, and this one is the newer (the one in the link is the old version). Sometimes people see the word "super", it is actually just the translate from the japanese katakana on the bottle label, I got confused a little bit at first, but I tried to read the label (I know a bit Japanese) and figured it out. Have a look at this website http://www.hadalabo.com.my/product_content.html?catid=1&id=0 &lt;- Hada Labo offial website in Malaysia and they updated the new packaging (not like the website for US which still uses the old ones). Hope this help :)

Go to their spare parts page where they list nearly every home replaceable part for the this machine at (http://zojirushi.com/user/scripts/user/product_list.php?model_id=33). Zojirushi has the best price on parts but as usual you pay for the shipping. Buy several at once and you most likely will save on shipping costs.

My item was purchased a few years ago. It is possible that the company may have outsourced some of its products in certain years. Best way to get your answer is to contact Zojirushi. They have a website: Zojirushi.com or Zojirushi Customer Service:Phone: (800) 733-6270 / (310) 769-1900 and email address (info@zojirushi.com)
