Coffee is one of the ," Bare Necessities" of life as well as a destination, and Art.
This is not the first frother I have ever purchased.
I quietly acknowledge that I am a bit of a coffee snob, I am a French Press gal from way back when.... I absolutely love an electric frother for two reasons, the first because I want cream in my coffee and when you add cream/milk it makes the coffee temp cool too much for me. The second reason is I love the thickness steamed&frothed milk adds to a bold cup of coffee. It feels decedent, a fancy cup of Joe but a fraction of the price compared to all the outrageous coffee places out there.( it has been said to me many times I make the world's best coffee in the comfort of my own home)
So, by now you know I am a true blue coffee gal...
This frother I purchased because I had The Secura stainless frother which does a beautiful job however it is larger and I felt I was waiting cream because the "min" line was still more than I would use in ONE cup of coffee. .. so the hunt began once again. This little gadget works like a dream it is fast, hot, thick and silky and adds the beautiful richness you could find in a fancy place. It washes out easily, as soon as you've poured the cream/milk you desire I just use the sprayer hot water and wipe it out, if you don't rinse it out right away, I'd suggest add a little water and push the button once for frothing and heating and then rinse it out. Comes clean EVER time.
If I had one criticism it would be that the markings for "Min" & "Max" are barely visible at all I just felt for the line and now I know how far to fill it without looking or feeling anymore.
The other thing is BE CAREFUL when taking the "wisk" in and out it is delicate. (Glad they give you a spare one) My Secura Frother is magnetic which is a fabulous feature you don't have to wiggle the little wisk thingy in and out in fear of bending or snapping it... I wish this frother had that same feature.
Ok so here is the short version for those who do not care to read a novel for a complete review.
The price is cheap for a little gadget that works better than some very expensive ones. I had a Vermesio which was almost $100.00 and it stopped working , I recieved a replacement 3 or 4 times.
I use this frother multiple times a day and it always ends with me feeling like I'm having a special treat.
It is quick.
It is silent, when do e it simple shuts off , so if you forget about it and the froth begins to separate just hit the button and it will froth it right back without scalding your milk/ cream/ almond Silk...
One last feature I like is that due to its size it is so easy to travel with, it takes up no room , if you're staying in a hotel and enjoy your own coffee best pack it with a stop and grab milk/cream and when you wake up you get to have YOUR coffee the way YOU want it wherever you roam.
Outside the pitcher is warm but not hot to the touch so you wont burn yourself ( which you can with the stainless steel pitchers)
I hope it lasts me a good long time, but I've had it a couple of months now and it is perfect as the first day!
Enjoy the perfect froth to your favorite coffee!
