From best selling rice cookers to bread machines, hot water dispensers, thermos, and coffee makers, the Zojirushi Corporation applies small appliance technology that's precise, innovative and reliable.

If you're tired of scraping burned rice from the bottom of your good sauce pan, it may be time to do what most Asian households did long ago: invest in a rice cooker. Zojirushi is top rated in the category, and for good reason. They simply know what they're doing, and they translate that knowledge to a push of a button, whether you're cooking white rice, brown rice, sushi rice or porridge. Their Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker has technology that allows it to "think" for itself and adjust temperature and time as needed, and includes a quick-cook setting. It will stay warm automatically and the time function lets you set it and go. With a nonstick finish and stay cool handles, there's no awkward soaking or scraping required for easy cleanup. And a flip up handle and retractable cord means you can take it right to the table for serving. For even more precise automatic control, check out Zojirushi's Stainless Induction Heating rice cookers. The special high-tech heating method found in this and their other Induction Heating lines means that much more insurance that your rice will come out just right every time. And it includes a GABA brown rice setting that "activates" brown rice for increased nutritional value.

However if your carb of choice is bread but you don't have the time to knead, the Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Breadmaker is a product you won't want to miss. From pizza crust to dinner rolls, hoagie buns to gluten-free bread and cakes, there's a setting for it all. Watch it all at work through a large window. And it'll even make your favorite fruit jam to spread on that freshly baked goodness.
