From the manufacturer
Induction Heating Rice Cooker & Warmer NW-QAC10/18
Flat-top design with all the fan-favorite features including quinoa, steel cut oatmeal, congee, and GABA brown rice. The convenient self-cleaning function reduces odors. Self-standing rice spatula accessory. Made in Japan.
Why is Induction Heating Better?
Induction Heating, or IH technology generates high heat and makes fine heat adjustments which result in fluffier rice.
Compared to a heating element on a micom rice cooker, it heats faster and cools faster, to make finer heat adjustments while cooking.
Only with the right sequence of on and off is rice cooked to perfection.

Every kernel of rice is perfectly moist and tender. It may take longer to cook than other models, but the results are far superior. This version is a 10 cup cooker and cooks as little as one cup with the same perfect outcome.
Pros:
1) Easy to use controls.
2) Intuitive programming.
3) Quality build overall. This housing is new and some type of polycarbonate. My previous cookers came in stainless steel and hard plastic. We will have to report at a future date if this is an improvement.
4) Able to use as a steamer. This is a new option and will need more experimenting. It may be easier and faster to use a steam basket on the stove.
5) Less parts to clean. There is now a built-in vent and comes with a self-clean setting. I used this setting to remove some of the odors of manufacturing.
6) The rice pot has a nonstick coating as before. We will have to see if the “double nonstick coating” performs better and lasts longer than previous models.
Cons:
1) There is a detachable cord. I would have preferred a retractable cord. Zojirushi Customer Service responded that an FCC safety requirement does not currently allow for a retractable cord on their IH (induction) or Pressure IH units.
2) This unit is louder than previous models. Not a major factor but surprised by the slight increase in noise.
3) There is a small backup battery that keeps the time and timer settings if unplugged. Older models continued to show the time when unplugged, but that is changed on this newer model. Zojirushi said that this should increase the battery life because a terminal is soldered in place and can only be changed by a factory service representative. If the battery fails, the rice cooker will still perform normally when plugged in.
4) It is expensive. However, the longevity of the units justify the cost. My older units and the ones my family use are still going strong after 10+years!
Here are some tips on using your rice cooker:
• Wash your rice in a separate bowl to prolong the life of the nonstick rice bowl. Your unit will last much longer and will prevent the lining from scratching.
• Use the measuring cup that comes with the rice cooker. This is smaller than a US measuring cup (approx. 7/8 cup) and will provide you with better cooked rice.
• Keep your unit unplugged to prolong the life of your backup battery. This is not a major issue but may give you a couple more years before you have to replace a dead battery.
• You can use the Warm setting to keep foods warm for family gatherings. We often use the rice cookers to keep mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy or vegetables warm so that everything is ready at the same time.

One of the standout features is the keep-warm function, which normally lasts for 12 hours until the post-cook timer on the LCD indicates that the rice's quality may start to degrade. However, the rice still tastes excellent even after 24 hours. Incredibly, even with the extended keep-warm setting active for up to 24 hours, the rice maintains its superb flavour for two whole days!
While it does make some noise during the cooking process, due to air being sucked in from the back and exhausted at the front, this is a small trade-off for such exceptional performance. When we open the rice cooker after two days, the rice is not dry, and there’s no water dripping from the lid, thanks to its effective venting system that channels away moisture during cooking.
Additionally, the NW-QAC18 includes a self-cleaning feature, which is a huge plus for maintaining the unit. It keeps the rice cooker clean and fresh with minimal effort on our part.
As with other Zojirushi appliances, the NW-QAC18 is a testament to the brand's commitment to reliability and durability. If you’re in the market for a rice cooker that delivers consistently excellent results and keeps rice tasting great for days, the Zojirushi NW-QAC18 is highly recommended. It’s more than just a rice cooker; it’s a staple for any serious kitchen.

Additionally, we were never Brown Rice fans, but we ARE NOW! Our favorite is the GABA Rice (sprouted rice) option. It is even better than white or sushi rice.
NOTES/COMMENTS:
GABA Rice - If you buy “GABA Rice” you do NOT use the GABA Rice Setting, instead cook it on the “white rice” setting because packaged GABA rice is already sprouted and ready to go which saves A LOT of time and it turns out great. I learned this the hard way!
If you want to make your own GABA Rice then buy regular “brown rice” and use the “GABA Rice” setting on the Zojirushi…but be aware that it takes about 3.5 hours to do this setting.
SIZE - It is just 2 of us, but I also cook for our 2 dogs and use brown rice. On those days that I need enough for 4 of us, or if we have company, this one is “almost” too small. So….I also invested in the Zojirushi IH/Pressure Rice Cooker. in the LARGE 1.8l capacity….very glad I have both because now I have options based on how much rice I need at any given time.
RICE WASHING BOWL: Invest the $8-10 in a Rice Washing Bowl…it is so much easier than using a pot or bowl to wash your rice because it has conveniently located drain holes and you don’t lose your rice all over in your sink.
COOKBOOK: There is NO Cookbook in the box with this Rice Cooker which was very disappointing, and those cookbooks that I have found so far that are labeled as “Zojirushi” really aren’t what they say they are.. But, I’ve found several websites that are very helpful to reference for things like types of rice, soy, recipes, etc.
Upshot is we LOVE this rice cooker and either use it or it’s bigger brother daily.
