Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I really like my Cuckoo. It cooks everything perfectly once you figure out the ratios
  • Cuckoo is decent, but unless you’re a rice connoisseur I doubt you’ll notice a difference.
  • Get a zoji, cuckoo, yum Asia or something instead
  • Agreed, I love my Cuckoo. It does brown rice and quinoa just fine, as well. Fuzzy logic.
  • I’ve got a Cuckoo and it’s fantastic. Afaik Zojirushi and Cuckoo are basically equivalent of each other in terms of quality.

Cons

  • There is also Cuckoo “international” listed as Canadian based but made in China and I made that mistake so you don’t have to. Worked once beautifully and then never powered up again.
  • I'm sure the Korean makers are fine but if you grew up with Zojirushi and Tiger the Cuckoo menus and presets are whack. ... Unless you're Korean I think you might find the Cuckoo a little weird in comparison.
  • The Cuckoo I'm not sure about since it's a bit more expensive and the dimensions make it seem huge/too big for my countertop, though I know Cuckoo is one of the go to brands.
  • Everywhere I’ve looked says, look at Cuckoo for rice cooker with stainless insert. I’ve seen complaints they’re too hard to clean.

Cuckoo also sells some rice cookers with stainless pots, but they tend to be their high-end models. https://cuckooamerica.com/collections/premiere-stainless-collection

cuckoo's premium lineup uses a stainless inner pot instead of non-stick coating, which is more durable material-wise, though the pressure models need a gasket replacement every 2-3 years (cheap part, $10ish, but worth knowing going in).
