But as a few other reviews have alluded, it is fragile. I wrote the company asking for a replacement part, which I told them I was happy to purchase. It froths milk fine. This was given to me several years ago as a gift. At least try another brand, which I am going to do. The brittle plastic developed small cracks and finally broke last week, rendering the whole frother useless.
except a brittle plastic disk which holds the screen and a second stainless steel disc onto the handle shaft.
But not only for the thin glass.
More junk for the landfill.
I started using it again a few weeks ago.
But all they did was send me a canned response telling me to buy a new one if it was out of its 30 day warranty.
I noticed this when I first got it, and have been extra careful.My issue is with the plunger.
Most parts are stainless steel.
I cannot believe folks keep buying crap that breaks easily.
It's not like these folks have a stranglehold on the Milk frother market.
I was looking for a way to froth milk without a fancy machine, and I found it with this product. This frother does exactly what it claims to do. I warm the milk in the microwave, push the pump about 20 times, and I have perfectly frothed milk for my capuccino (also made without a machine). Use extreme care when washing the glass carafe--it is extremely fragile and will break if it falls over.
It is easy to use and very easy to clean if you rinse it off right away (rather than let it sit and let the milk dry). I love my frother. You can pump a little to get a small froth, or a lot to make a stiff froth for the perfect macchiato. I used to own an espresso machine with a steamer. Until I bought a moka pot and used this frother, I never knew what I was missing. I use it with skim milk or soy milk. Just heat the milk in the microwave, pour it in the frother, pump, rinse off the plunger, and enjoy your drink.
This is an excellent frother, I am still discovering uses for it, the price is right and doesn't need batteries.
Ok I love the way this froths, you pump pump, and oh boy, my coffee was on fire, I lvoed it BUTthe design of this is what made me not like it.My mama got another one similar with a smaller TOP- this one is big. IT LOOKS PRETTY, but milk n jive would get stuck up high in it.It made cleaning a lil harder and handling. I would have thought no big dealBUT IT MADE IT TOP HEAVY, which led to, it in my sink, and knockin over, and BREAKING.I still have the top heavy metal top, but hte glass is uselss and broken.i would rec one with a smaller top maybe even the black plastic, not this heavy chrome.
