FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes. Zojirushi rice cooker are factory made for UK and European 220-240V, 50Hz power supply.

No. USA units are not compatible with UK and European power supply (they are 110V and 60Hz) and you would need to purchase a bulky and expensive transformer to convert the voltage so you could use it. Transformers for stepping up voltage take up a lot of electricity when converting voltage, are bulky and don’t convert the cyclical electricity frequency of an appliance (ie they don’t convert from 60Hz to 50Hz). We have had several customers who have tried to use US rice cookers with a voltage converter and they do not work or broke within 6 months.

Japanese models are confusing as they are available in both 110V and 240V power ratings. Please take care if going this route.

Yes. The display and menu is in English and the supplied manual is also in English.

Note that there are no other language options are available for the manual.

Zojirushi rice cookers have lithium batteries that are used only for retaining timer and cooking memory for if there is a power interruption. The batteries have an estimated lifespan of around 5-10 years depending on use.

These batteries are not essential to the operation of the rice cookers but can be replaced only at authorised Zojirushi service centres if you feel you need to have it replaced. After warranty you would need to contact one of these centres if you wish the battery to be replaced. 

We have no plans at all to sell Zojirushi Induction Heating models because the Zojirushi IH models for 220-240V power haven’t passed any CE safety tests for use in the UK or Europe so they therefore cannot be legally supplied within the UK or Europe, so this is why we do not supply them. Not only is there a voltage difference but there is a difference in the frequency of electricity used. The Zojirushi IH models are also very, very expensive to purchase (around £150-200 more than our conventional rice cooker models).

We do have our own branded Induction Heating rice cookers, Fuji YUM-IH07 and Bamboo YUM-IH15/2/B. These are the first IH rice cooker to be made for the UK and Europe. It has many unique rice cooking features which Yum Asia developed using our rice cooker/cooking expertise.

    THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE RICE COOKER!!! THIS IS A MAGIC RICE COOKER!!!
    Before I had another brand rice cooker but when I taste the rice from this Zojirushi I realized that there is no comparison!!!
    Note that I eat only brown rice that is the most difficult to cook, but It came out great with the brown rice setting and SUPERB with the GABA settings that also enhance nutrients.
    So if you usually cook brown rice you should buy this model with GABA function.
    It cooks also WHOLE OAT GROATS to perfection with the porridge function!
    Really I could not be happier!!
    Shipping was very fast and Yumasia staff was very helpfull and answered my many questions!!
    THANKS AGAIN TO YUMASIA!!!

    Greatly satisfied with this rice cooker and Yum Asia. It has been delivered whitin 3 days. The rice is perfect, especially the brown one.

  3. B. Han (UK)

    I’ve been cooking rice using a heavy pot for years and was happy with the results. After reading rave reviews of Zojirushi on Amazon US I decided to try one. I was ready to be sceptical but after just one try on the ‘Umami’ setting with Thai rice we were blown over. It puts to shame all my previous rice cooking. The grains are tighter, more fragrant, drier, without being hard or separate. The rice is just PERFECT. I tried Nishiki and Akitakomachi, using Sushi measurements with the Umami setting and the results were equally out of this world. I also make sushi, I have NEVER succeeded in cooking Japonica rice like this: perfectly plump, just sticky enough, holding its shape without a hint of a trouble. The taste on the Umami setting; I have done 3 comparisons with Nishiki, Akitakomachi and Koshihikari – the difference is really palpable. Yumenishiki Brown is plump and incredibly tender without being mushy. From a potential sceptic I’ve become a convert! The YSQ10 is worth every penny.

  4. C Moncrieff (UK)

    Order on 4th, didn’t arrive till the 9th. Normally an acceptable delivery time, but after reading about super speedy mail reviews and paying £10 "Next Day Delivery" I was disappointed. 2nd Class Royal Mail would have sufficed here. 3/5

    The unit it’s self is great, makes great rice, although be aware that these do take a lot longer to make the rice than a bog standard steam rice cooker – that said, the keep warm function didn’t brown the rice at the bottom of the pan and kept perfectly well for over 5 hours. Both the ‘Premium/Umami’ and the ‘Sushi’ setting are great, best sushi rice I’ve had so far. The rice was fluffy, soft but still able to feel the separate grains of rice.

    The slow cooker was great and it saves having two appliances around the house. If this unit had a steam basket it would have been more amazing still!

    I would definitely recommend. 5/5

    Overall 4/5

  5. NGUYEN (FR)

    I ordered the Zojirushi NS-YSQ10 in a Monday evening and it arrived at home 4 days later, on Friday. The brown colour & thin wrapping paper made me worry at the moment of delivery but nothing damaged and the cooker works perfectly (I need to buy a UK to FR adaptor ) The 5.5 cups version looks very nice, well designed and solid. I did try to cook with "White" and "Premium" modes, both make the rice tasty easily. I recommend this cooker for its quality of "Made in Japan" and for its perfect rices. At the same time, buying on Yum Asia saved me delivery time and a little bit money compared to ordering from Hong Kong’s sites. P.S I’d buy the NP version with Pressure & IH if it was available on your Yum Asia 🙂

  6. Mel

    Following some friendly and helpful advice from the Yum Asia team, I selected the YSQ10, and am very pleased with my purchase (for info, it’s best to check with YA when they have an available delivery slot – while delivery IS next-day after collection by the delivery company, the next available slot was a couple of working days after I placed my order). The 5.5 cup size is perfect for me, and I love all the menu options. So far I have cooked brown rice and lentils, GABA brown rice, steel cut oats for porridge, quinoa, sushi rice, mixed grain blend and chicken breasts (on the slow-cook option). I recommend getting the Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook too for additional advice on the many ways to use your rice cooker. I forsee many happy years of cooking with my Zoji in the future, thanks again Yum Asia!

  7. A.Campbell (Finland)

    I decided to buy this model because I was interested in the GABA feature. I’m not sure how much GABA is activated, but the brown rice I’ve cooked using this setting is absolutely delicious. I can eat it by itself. Definitely the best brown rice I have tasted. The normal brown rice setting doesn’t produce as flavorsome rice.

    Sushi rice is cooked to perfection ysing the sushi setting. I just make sure that I wash the rice in the ‘Japanese style’ and I slightly underfill with water. So I will add water to just below the fill line. When I first used the cooker I thought my rice was mushy and that was because I had overfilled with water. So you need to test what works best for you.

  8. Alessandro (Italy)

    I have bought three rice cooker (ZAQ10, YSQ10, TSQ10) and one bread maker (BB-HAQ10). I have tried all the four machines and I have no words to say how I am very very very deeply satisfied and happy!! I am 47 years old and the rice cooked with these three rice cooker is absolutely the best rice I have ever eat. It is incredible to notice how this rice cooker are so easy to use and how they cooks the best rice in the world!!!! Now that I found the Zojirushi rice cookers I do not want to live without them!!!! Believe me!!! When you eat some rice cooked with the Zojirushi rice cooked you will not believe that the rice you are eating are so good, tasty perfectly cooked, full of flavour, wonderful!!! When I turn on the rice cooker my home become fulfilled with an incredible wonderful scent of tasty rice!!!! The service at http://www.yumasia.co.uk is simply wonderful!!! They are so friendly, kind and efficient!!!! Now I absolutely cannot live without http://www.yumasia.co.uk and Zojirushi rice cooker!!!!

  9. Rob (Belgium)

    Excellent customer service; providing information and details on the most suitable rice cooker for my needs and addressing all questions I had prior to the purchase.

    Excellent delivery service; in three days the rice cooker was here. Package was intact and I could follow the status of the delivery with one click.

    The NS-YSQ10 has so far cooked perfect rice. A fire and forget (or not, thanks to the tunes played) rice cooker that works without any problems. I decided to buy a cable for continental europe plugs which works perfectly and was inexpensive. The rice is very nice (still figuring out the optimal water level for how hard I like the rice) and, as mentioned, with only pressing one button. Cleaning after cooking takes two seconds. While expensive, I see it as an investment (tasty rice, no need to worry about the cooking process).

    Very happy with the purchase and with YumAsia.

  10. Sue M (UK)

    I recently purchased a Zojirushi (NS-YSQ10). I’m over-the-moon with this rice cooker. Your speed of delivery has been fantastic, the rice cooker works a treat and my delectable rice has made me just want to go home every evening to savour!

    I’ve spread the word on how wonderful this rice cooker is and can’t thank you enough for the detailed comparison on your website to help me choose the cooker suitable for my needs.

    Thanks again for your immensely helpful product information and customer service. Over the course of time, if there’s any other feedback I think would be beneficial to you and future customers, I will keep you posted.
