This IH rice cooker from Zojirushi features a Kuro-maru Atsugama (thick inner pot, 1.7mm thick). It has a Japanese rice selection with 3 course functions. - Brand: Zojirushi - Model: NP-VI10 - Color: Brown (TA) - Inner Pot Features: Kuro-maru Atsugama, 1.7mm thick - Rice Cooking Functions: Japanese rice selection with 3 courses It has been handled very carefully, and there are no major scratches or stains. The inner pot is not peeling, and it can still be used. I think Zojirushi and Tiger rice cookers cook the rice the most deliciously(^^) I am not considering lowering the price due to the shipping cost. Thank you.
