If it's model JBA-T10U. It has a "Made in Japan" right on the left above the LCD screen and Japanese writing on the right above the "Start" button. This is one of the best rice cooker, excellent performance!

It's companay is Japan but this is made in China. If you want Japanese made, you need to get JNP model. See my review for the difference.

No, it was not made in Japan. Information on the box it was packed in reads "Designed in U S A. Made in China. Patent Pending. However it seems to be well made.

In the Operating Instructions book for the heater, it says "TIGER Corporation" and the address is Osaka, Japan.But on the water heater itself, it says made in China, for some reason...

The Tiger models that start with "JNP" are made in Japan. There are others that are made in China, but they have different model numbers.

JNP's are made in japan and has better ventilation system which makes cooked rice last much longer in warm function compared to cheaper Chinese made ones which makes your rice smell after a day.

The label on the bottom of mine says it is designed in Tokyo, but made in China.

I don't believe it's made in China. The Stainless Steel Tatung Rice cooker that I have (looks just like the one in the photo) says made in Taiwan on the bottom of the unit. Hope this helps!

I think it was made in Taiwan. I wasn't really looking at that when I bought it. My friend had it on his Wish list.

Just looked at mine -- said that it was made in China. I guess even Japanese companies are having stuff built on the cheap in China now -- but this unit isn't cheap!

It isn't mark so on the cooker itself, but it is on the box. I've used the other stove-top cooker (which is also made in Japan) and this one is far better. Much easier to clean and the taiyaki cakes are larger.

It is made in Taiwan, not mainland China. It is an excellent well made rice cooker and I would recommend highly.

For this specific model it is made in china. Other model may made in Japan. This one I can guarantee to tell you is made in china...when I receive the item and I look where it made from is kind of disappointed. If you looking for made in Japan you have to look on other brand. If around your area have Macy's store you may go there and look because I went there after I got the pot and notice that they have other models are made in Japan. Of course cost more than this Made in CHINA.

No, China which disappointed me. I believe the more expensive model is made in Japan.

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.
