What we like
- Among the cheapest genuinely functional frothers you can buy
- Included stand is a small but real usability upgrade over frothers sold without one
- Fast froth cycle, done in under 20 seconds most of the time
What we don't
- No heating element, milk needs to be warmed separately for hot drinks
- Battery-powered only, no rechargeable version in the base package
- Whisk head construction is basic and shows wear with heavy daily use
