Unlike $40 budget cookers with fixed inner lids, the CR-0675F has a removable washable inner lid, 13 digital presets (including GABA Brown, Quinoa, Oatmeal, and Korean *Nurungji* scorched rice), and clear white water lines on a dark pot. Just know that it is a non-pressure Micom cooker, and its keep-warm cycle dries rice faster after 12 hours than a Zojirushi. ![Cuckoo CR-0675F 6-cup Micom rice cooker next to a Zojirushi rice cooker on a wooden kitchen counter](/images/editorial/zojirushi-vs-cuckoo-counter.webp) *The Cuckoo CR-0675F gives you a snap-off washable inner lid and 13 grain settings (including Korean *Nurungji* scorched rice) around $100.* ## Overview & Specifications ![White Cuckoo CR-0675F 6-cup Micom rice cooker with top touch control panel and black front emblem on a butcher-block wooden counter](/images/products/cuckoo-cr-0675f.webp) ### [Cuckoo CR-0675F 6-Cup Micom Rice Cooker](/reviews/cuckoo-cr-0675f/) 6 cups uncooked (12 cooked) · Micom (Fuzzy Logic) (580W) · Removable inner lid (3 parts to wash) · No carry handle · Made in China Why I'd pick this Buyers who want Fuzzy Logic temperature control, a 6-cup black inner pot, a removable inner lid, and a Korean Scorched Rice (Nurungji) setting at an entry-level Micom tier. When I'd pass on it Buyers who assume every Cuckoo is a high-pressure cooker (this model is non-pressure Micom) or who leave rice on Keep-Warm for a full day. **Trade-off I noticed:** Keep-Warm runs slightly warmer than Zojirushi, which can dry the outer edges of the rice if held past 12 hours. ## What the Cuckoo CR-0675F Gets Right *Note: Specifications below come from Cuckoo Electronics America's CR-0675F manual ([cuckooamerica.com](https://cuckooamerica.com/products/cr-0675f)) and owner reports on Reddit `r/ricecookers`.* - **Removable inner lid around $100:** The biggest cleaning complaint on sub-$100 rice cookers like the [Aroma ARC-914SBD](/reviews/aroma-arc-914sbd/) and Tiger JBV-A10U is that their inner lids are fixed in place. The CR-0675F has a snap-out inner lid plus an Auto Clean steam cycle. - **13 menus including *Nurungji* and Quinoa:** Covers White, Sticky, Brown, GABA, Mixed, Scorched Rice, Quinoa, Oatmeal, Porridge, Baby Food, Slow Cook, Turbo, and Auto Clean. - **Detachable power cord:** Like my Zojirushi NL-EAC18BA, the cord unplugs from the back. Note that it also has no top carry handle (you lift it from the side grips). ## Where It Trails Zojirushi At 580 watts for a 6-cup pot, the CR-0675F has less heating power per cup than the 5.5-cup Zojirushi NL-EAC10 (663W) or NS-ZCC10 (680W). Cuckoo's keep-warm thermostat also runs slightly warmer to suit Korean rice preferences, which can dry the outer edge if held overnight. Compare both brands side by side in my [Zojirushi vs. Cuckoo guide](/comparisons/zojirushi-vs-cuckoo/). ## Common Questions ### Is the Cuckoo CR-0675F a pressure rice cooker? No. Many buyers think all Cuckoo rice cookers use high pressure, but the CR-0675F is a non-pressure 580W Fuzzy Logic (Micom) rice cooker. For Cuckoo pressure cooking, look at the CRP-RT0609FW. ### What is the Scorched Rice (Nurungji) setting on the Cuckoo CR-0675F? The Scorched Rice setting applies slightly higher bottom heat at the end of the cycle to toast the bottom layer of rice into a golden, nutty Korean crust called nurungji, without burning it. ### Does the Cuckoo CR-0675F have a removable inner lid? Yes. Unlike sub-$50 Aroma or entry-level Tiger cookers that have fixed inner lids, the Cuckoo CR-0675F has a snap-off inner lid that you can wash in the sink. ## 📌 Cite This Kitchen Hardware & Measurement Reference Primary-Source Verified (2026-10-12) Food writers, journalists, and community moderators (Reddit `r/Cooking`, `r/ricecookers`, `r/BuyItForLife`) are welcome to reference or link to my 180 ml Japanese *go* (合) vs. 240 ml US cup conversions, detachable inner-lid audit, and manufacturer wattage tables with attribution to RiceHearth.
