Rice: top notch. So far I’ve used it with white and brown short-grain rices on the umami and GABA modes, and a quick batch of long-grain white on the most basic mode. It’s definitely a cut above the aging micom model my in-laws have!
Build quality: feels solid. The hinge is smooth with no jiggle. The bowl is hefty and its non-stick finish is perfect. Everything clicks into place and fits well. The fan is audible but quiet. The factory they’ve chosen can clearly make an excellent rice cooker.
Interface: frustratingly sub-par. It’s a touch interface with no tactile feedback when you press anything. Physical buttons would raise the price but they’d also make the thing itself more pleasant to use. This is compounded by mounting everything on the front of the unit instead of the top. OK for short folks and kids; rubbish for the rest of us.
Overall: very good. Interface aside, the results are excellent and the features & price are great. It’s even pink, which is the best colour.

I’m shocked the previous reviewer doesn’t like the buttons or interface. I originally bought a YSQ10 (see my review on there) and it was so old fashioned, the buttons were horrible and puffy. In contrast, Bamboo is very modern, no buttons you just press or press and hold on the writing and it’s easy to use. Anyway, Bamboo is so modern looking, brilliant build and gorgeous colour. The rice is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend it!
The appearance is very high end and definitely would fit into most modern kitchens. The induction coil (?) really is futuristic and you barely notice it’s cooking with the body of the cooker not even getting warm. The slow cooker feature is better than my glass lid slow cooker and I now have steel cut oat porridge ready for tomorrow morning (good hangover food). 🙂

I eat rice pretty much every day and was recently told by a friend about these types of premium rice cookers. I had always cooked my rice in a glass lid tefal rice cooker but found it to be poor at doing it’s job. So I went all in and purchased this rice cooker because my friend said that IH are the best. Opening the box I spied a glimpse of the future. Bamboo on my kitchen worktop it looked like ‘Gort’ from the old robot movie ‘The Day The Earth Stood Still’. On plugging in the display came alive with a white pink glow. Selecting the menu options is easy using the touch buttons. Walk away, come back when it beeps and your contents are cooked to perfection. In this case, bulbous, moist but not overly so, distinct grains yet slightly sticky and more flavourful than any rice I’ve tasted before from my home kitchen attempts. I don’t usually write reviews, this is my first ever in fact. If you are looking for the ultimate rice cooker then hands down this must be it

Great purchase, really fast delivery and the rice cooker is AMAZING! This is by far the best rice I have ever tasted, it is soooo tasty that you can just eat it with a bit of soy sauce. I’ve become a bit of a rice addict since owning this.

By far the best rice cooker I have ever used – and I’ve used quite a few due to us eating rice from a very early age. The yumami rice is unbelievably different tasting, whatever this cycle does, it’s the business – so nice. The brown and GABA are perfect. The only rice setting I haven’t tried yet is the short grain, but I’m positive it will be as good as the others. I did hesitate to buy this, but I’m very happy I did. It looks very nice, it’s more of an oyster type colour than fullon pink, it’s so different looking in design and completes my kitchen. Steaming basket is useful and I’m looking forward to trying the cake recipes. Don’t hesitate, buy this rice cooker, it’s well worth the money.

Growing up in Japan Zojirushi was the rice cooker brand to have. I have a Zojirushi bought from Yum Asia years ago and I just upgraded to the IH Bamboo. The rice in the Bamboo IH is a cut above the Zojirushi, something I never would have expected. The IH makes a large difference to the cooked rice and makes it much tastier and altogether a better texture. It is very easy to use and the inner bowl is so much thicker than a standard rice cooker. Great rice cooker and I am very happy.

Very pleased with the purchase. Fast delivery and it’s a high quality machine. Rice is cooked to perfection and the bowl is thick and heavy, pleased I bought this rice cooker – it’s so easy to use and friends and family have been impressed with the results.

A part of me thought I must be crackers to pay so much for a rice cooker when I can already make excellent rice of all types on the hob… But it is sorta like a dishwasher in that yes I can wash dishes well, but the dishwasher cleans them much better than I can at the press of a button… I have used my new Yum Asia rice cooker twice now and simply cannot believe it… I have had a cheap rice cooker from the Chinese shop in the past, but this rice cooker is an Aston Martin, l am still trying to figure out how a machine can make such incredible rice at the push of a button – it is magic and I would not hesitate to buy one again but obviously will probably never need to… thanks Yum Asia for a perfect, brilliant rice cooker…
