I received mine today (March 2, 2015) and it is made in Thailand. I was hoping they were still made in Japan.

Mine says it was made in China, both on the box and on the back of the cooker.

Mine says made in Japan, but I've had it since 2004. However, the Zojirushi rice maker I bought in July was made in China.

Japan all the way. I bought it on Amazon maybe 2 years ago and its an amazing rice cooker. In fact, I'm so impressed with Zojirushi quality, I bought their CD-WBC40 4 water boiler.

No, it is made in China as is one of my induction rice cookers. The other rice cooker and water heater are made in Japan. All four items of great quality however and I'd recommend this item even though it is not made in Japan. It is the usual Zojirushi quality and I'm very happy with it. I'd buy it again.

Customer service is in US, and they respond quickly to questions or service issues. However, on the bottom of the unit it says "MADE IN CHINA". I am very happy with my unit, and what it will do. I grew up using stove top pressure cookers, and still have one, but love this one.

Don't know, assuming China. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. But I love this one over the OXO.

Whereever it is made; I have bought 3 and they're all bad. the lids do not close tight; so after cooking; you have to eat it all, can't keep it on warm; for it will spoil your rice.

China. My Rice Cooker is made there too. I believe Zojirushi has the same mindset as Sony. Keep the Japanese manufactured products in Japan and make the exports in China. Regardless, the product is quality and beats anything else hands down.

Yes, it's made in China. The quality, though, seems very good. My family uses it at least a couple of times per week - primarily for rice and oatmeal. My only complaint about it would be that the "ceramic" coated cooking liner seems just about the same as all the other non-stick liners. But that being said, the liner is holding up to frequent use (I make sure not to use metalic scrubbers or utensils). I'm still very happy with this.

The one I purchased was made in China, but as far as I can tell, is every bit as good as the one made in Spain. The problem in the past was the thickness of the metal in the bottom of the cooker, the early Chinese ones were not as thick as the ones made in Spain. But that problem does not seem to exist anymore. If you really need to have one that is made in Spain, then I suggest looking on E-bay for them.

I don't have the box for the cooker anymore, but I do have the booklet that came with it. The booklet was printed in China, so I suspect the cooker is manufactured there. That said, the cooker is made from "high-fired porcelain" and since I don't cook acidic foods in it, I feel entirely comfortable using it. I guess you have to use your own best judgment, and I do understand your concern.

My old Thermos thermal cooker says made in Japan but these newer RPC-xxxx versions all say made in China. I can't tell any difference in quality from my old or new one and in fact the newer one has a clad bottom on the inner pot that is a big improvement over the old inner pot.

I believe the company is based in Seattle, but I don't know where the product itself is manufactured. I do wish I had heard about this product sooner. It has made my food prep easier when using herbs.

It is made in Japan. Works well every time, is easy to disassemble and clean as well. The retractable cord is a great feature is you keep it under the counter like I do. Excellent rice cooker!
