Our score: 66 / 100
Read our full Bodum Bistro Electric Milk Frother review →
What we like
- Roughly a third the price of the automatic frothers it competes with
- Single-button operation, genuinely nothing to figure out
- Non-stick jug interior cleans up fast when rinsed promptly
What we don't
- One fixed froth setting, no density or texture options at all
- Smallest capacity of the automatic frothers in this roundup
- Plastic housing feels noticeably lighter-duty than Breville or Nespresso's equivalents
