Does the job
I was away for work for two weeks and was spoiled by my morning cappuccino. When I came home I was using my little hand wisk but those really aren’t made for daily use so I went to the good old internet and googled best frothers. This was one of the suggestions that came up. I was split between a few but with this I decided to pull the trigger because of the sleek design and dishwasher safe pieces.So far I’m happy. As others have noted it’s a noisy little machine but it gets the job done and with significantly more foam than I was getting with my hand held. It’s nice to set it and walk away and it works while my single serve coffee maker is also brewing.I had some trouble with the hot chocolate function. I put in a packet of coca mix with milk and it exploded. I never read the directions on that so maybe I’m not supposed to make coca that way. I have not used the cold frother function but I don’t anticipate using cold foam anyway.I typically use skim or 1% milk and I combine that with some flavored creamer. Haven’t had any issues with the frother with this combo.I don’t know if it will stand the test of time but for right now I’m happy with the purchase. Does the job, small footprint and cute.

Quickly stops working
Do NOT buy this.The first few times it works well. When you push the start button, it has this futuristic whizz sound. Unfortunately, as other one-star reviewers have documented, after a few weeks, it ROUTINELY stops working. What happens is that the whizz changes to a rough sounding buzz and it stops spinning and stops heating the milk. I have to keep trying to restart it, and it buzzes, but after a few tries it may or may not work. It changes a few minute process to heat and froth milk into a tiresome cycle of trying to get the machine to work. Of course, it’s the boring cafe so there’s not a lot of time.I wrote to BODUM and expectantly their “customer service” replied that it wasn’t their problem. So much for standing behind the product.Look around and pick another.

Get this one!!
Get this one! Don’t get the others that aren’t dishwasher safe because no matter how careful you are when HAND cleaning, they go bad within months because the electrical components as too sensitive to moisture. Also, was always scorching my evaporated milk, so required a thouough cleaning. Get this one because 1) No buttons or electrical components on the vessle on this one. 2) The wire frother attachment is magnetic. 3) Does not scorch so it’s very easy to clean.

Disappointing
After carefully researching the best budget milk frother/heater, I chose this one—great reviews (at the time) and a trusted brand. I was excited to try it.Right from the start, I had issues. At first, I thought I might be overfilling or doing something wrong, but it turns out the problem isn’t user error. The mechanism just isn’t strong enough—the magnet gets stuck a few seconds after starting, making a loud buzzing noise and leaving my milk (oat, dairy, or soy) only half-frothed and cold.It’s really disappointing, especially since I’m now outside the return window. I hope Bodum or Amazon might still consider an exchange, because this one is unfortunately unusable.

Perfectly frothed almond milk (microfoam!!)
I’ve had this bodum milk frother for over 2 years now, and have used it once or twice every single day in that time. Obviously, I’m obsessed. I use it with Elmhurst Milked Almonds and it creates literal microfoam, which is amazing and exactly what I was looking for. (I have occasionally tried other alternative milks; none get quite the same effect as Elmhurst Milked Almonds.) The unit is easy to clean and small enough that it fits into the average cabinet. There have been a few instances where it would seem to stop working (a horrible “stuck” noise) — what I found is that if I just pour the milk out, take the metal frother out and put it back in ensuring it’s properly placed, and let it do a cycle with water, it all is better and runs like new afterwards. This has happened maybe 3-4 times per year for the last two years? Now having it for over two years with daily use, I am noticing that the motor seems to not be quite as strong as it once was — and I have to do less milk in it than I normally did. Which, is actually more user error than anything else, because I always put waayyyyyyy more than the “max” line and now I just have to keep it under/at the max line lol. Honestly I highly recommend, I take it with me everywhere, and I’m absolutely obsessed with the foam it creates. (I just remembered that it has different types of cycles — I only ever use the first one which I think is like the “latte” one.)

Disappointed
Spent way too much on something that works half way. Does froth milk well but stops working randomly. I need to reset 2-3 times each time I use it. I reached out to the company but never heard anything. Bodum once had a good name but no longer.

Me gusta mucho que el vaso se separe de la base, hace la limpieza más fácil y no compromete los componentes electrónicos. Hasta el momento ha funcionado de maravilla y hace una espuma deliciosa.

Mientras le ponga leche hasta el mínimo o incluso un poquito más funciona perfecto. Pero si le pongo en el máximo, se empieza a salir la leche conforme la espuma va aumentando su volumen.Pensé que era una falla de mi espumador, lo devolví y volví a pedir pero veo que es una falla del producto en general.

Funciona bien, solo el paquete se entrego sin estar sellado eso genera desconfianza.
