The inner cooking PAN is too thin and cheaply made in comparing to other Panasonic cooker SR-ZG105

*It is not recommended to keep rice warm for more than 12 hours in a rice cooker. It is recommended to freeze cooked leftover rice to keep the freshness.

Is Panasonic good rice cooker brand?

You have started searching for Japanese rice cookers and wondered:

  • There are too many options to choose from!
  • Which brand is best for my needs..? Tiger, Toshiba, Panasonic, Zojirushi..?
  • I have decided on Panasonic rice cooker but is Panasonic a good rice cooker brand?

Panasonic is one of the best Japanese rice cooker brands. Here are why:

Panasonic (then Matsushita Electric) is a well-established company founded in 1918 with a long history of developing good quality rice cookers.

Panasonic (then Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., National) released their first automatic electric rice cooker in 1956.

Panasonic (then Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., National) released their first Induction Heating rice cooker in 1988.

Panasonic is in constant pursuit of best tasting rice with a scientific and logical approach. They have the professional rice cooker science group called “Panasonic Cooking @Lab Rice Cooker Team“.*1

Panasonic has been developing the top-of-the-line rice cookers in pursuit of the cutting-edge technology over many years.
