Overview
A Japan made micom rice cooker from Tiger with a 5.5 cup capacity and a Tacook cooking plate that lets you steam or warm a side dish above the rice as it cooks in the same unit.
No manufacturer spec sheet was provided with this listing, so the picture here comes mostly from the model name and buyer feedback. One long time Tiger owner, replacing an older unit after roughly a decade of use, felt this generation does not quite match the inner pot durability of earlier Tiger cookers.
- 5.5 cup capacity
- Made in Japan
- Includes Tacook plate for simultaneous side dish cooking
- Micom electronic control
Who it's for
Regular rice eaters who want consistent results without babysitting the pot, especially those who value the Tacook plate for cooking a side dish alongside the rice. Less ideal for buyers hoping to match the exact build quality of an older Tiger model they previously owned.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers repeatedly praise how reliably the rice turns out, calling it easy to use for daily cooking. A more critical, experienced Tiger owner felt the inner pot quality has declined versus an earlier model that lasted about ten years, and a separate one star review reported receiving a used unit in an unsealed box.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Consistently cooks rice without sticking or scorching, per multiple reviewers
- Tacook plate allows a side dish to cook alongside the rice
- Straightforward to operate day to day
- A returning Tiger owner felt build quality has slipped compared to an earlier model
- Included directions were described as unclear by one buyer
- One buyer received a unit in an unsealed box that appeared previously used
Performance notes
Multiple reviewers describe rice coming out fully cooked without sticking or scorching across repeat use, which is the core job of a micom controlled cooker. One frequent user who cooks rice five days a week and owned a previous Tiger model noted the newer inner pot line felt like a step down from the sweeter, more al dente texture their older cooker produced.
