Why does the black &amp; red Japanese lacquer rice bowl look different on when I view my shopping cart? They look white.

Not sure. But the black and red one i got were plastic. They looked disposable. If plastic was a little stronger i would recommend. I think its selling the look of the bowel not the quality. All and all. You get what you paid for.

You are welcome. They should refund your money because it seems like the rice cooker may be defective. Or they should send you another one. Good luck.

I am experiencing the same problem in Huntington Beach, CA. I bought bowls just like these on Amazon over a year ago, and they worked perfectly. Then someone stole those bowls. I ordered another set a couple months ago, and they are not working at all!!! I am wondering if the design has changed. With your situation, I am wondering if the ants are smaller (?) and can make it up the slippery sides more easily....? Are they the exact same bowls?

Nishiki Premium Rice comes in both white and brown. The plain premium rice doesn't mention "Brown" but the other clearly states "Brown Premium Rice". I'm not sure why the Nishiki order you made came in white, when you clearly wanted Brown rice. I looked at the supplier I order my rice from and the rice is clearly marked. I believe Brown rice is more nutritious than white rice. If the white rice bothers you that much, I would return it for a bag of brown. Many vendors on Amazon make returns/exchanges simple/easy. Good luck... (The white rice is flavorful, maybe this one bag won't ruin your decision to try Nishiki white rice).

I am not the manufacturer, just a customer. Whites are very hard to match as are any color since the perception of the color actually happens in the brain. However, this appears to be pure white to me. I also bought a white cabinet at Home Goods,they have a ton of them in different styles, but all are the same white, in the bathroom section and this cabinet matches the Hone Goods cabinet. Hope this helps

Yes the bowl was the same on mine. Same color and everything. The rock inside of mine was red though.

Mine is the same way. I checked some of the the more expensive blenders at the store and they are identical.

The black bowl is shallow. We use a different bowl for cereal! But, I LOVE these dishes.

Hi Sharon - you make a good point.I bought from here and my rice cooker is primarily stainless steal with a dark gray trim - definitely not a pure black. Hope that helps! We've been really happy with the outcome of our rice using this rice cooker. :)

The rice that I purchased was black all through. I even washed it by rubbing it together in water. Although the water became dark, the rice was black when cooked.

I bought a black one, and it is a true black. Kitchen aid is quality product, I would imagine red cover would be same color red as their mixer. Might just be your computer.

I have a black one, bought in August 2009. on the bottom it says "Japan" ---look on the bottom, very fine print.

It looks like the only difference is the color- this one is a dark gray and the 03 is black. That's my guess. They didn't make the black one when I bought mine- it would have matched our kitchen a bit better. It sure has been a nice cart!

This is a grain that is supposed to be higher in protein content compared to white rice. You can try a small quantity of this that's available in stores like Whole Foods or Trader Joes before buying a large quantity bag like this one. This usually needs a little bit more water to cook well. See if you like the taste. Goodluck!

I've had mine a little over a year. It arrived without a single scratch and is a pure copper bowl. The finish on it is still perfect. It doesn't sound like the bowl you got is at all like mine. Can you return or exchange it?

Hello Consumer,That red is a slighly different red. The cookware to me appears a bit brighter. Thank you for allowing me to be of service to you. Kind regards, Audrey Consumer Relations
