Tiger IH Rice Cooker - 10 Cups (JPW-G18A)
Tiger IH Rice Cooker - 10 Cups (JPW-G18A)
The JPW-G18A is the large-capacity version of our best-selling Tiger rice cooker, and the most accessible made-in-Japan IH model we stock. It takes a different route to great rice from most IH cookers: a far-infrared, three-layer ceramic-coated inner pot that cooks the way a clay pot does, radiating heat evenly into every grain to draw out the rice's natural sweetness.
It cooks from 1 cup up to 10 cups (180ml cup) — about two bowls per cup, so enough for one or two people up to a large household. A standard cycle takes 48–65 minutes; the express menu cooks up to three cups in 23–30 minutes.
The Premium setting doubles the soaking time to draw out extra sweetness and aroma, and 16 menus run from multigrain and porridge to soup and cake. This is the cooker for anyone who wants IH rice quality without the premium-IH price. Also available in a 5.5-cup size (JPW-G10A).

Good to know before you buy: warranty, size and heating
- Warranty: 12-month manufacturer's warranty. If anything goes wrong, contact us first — we lodge the claim, and Tiger's or Zojirushi's authorised Australian service centre carries out the repair and contacts you directly.
- Australian models: All rice cookers we stock are Australian 240V models — not grey imports.
- Size: Capacity is in cups of uncooked rice, using the 180 ml rice cup in the box — not a 250 ml metric cup. 3 cups suits singles and couples, 5.5 cups a household of 3–5, and 10 cups larger families or batch cooking.
- Heating: Base-heat models are simple and affordable. Induction (IH) heats the whole pot evenly for noticeably better rice. IH pressure gives the softest, sweetest rice and handles brown rice best. Not sure which? Read Induction vs conventional rice cookers.
- Spare parts: We stock replacement inner pots for every rice cooker we sell.
