I love the cappuccino foam that this little gadget makes. It is a good complement for my espresso machine. But the words labels wore off of the nob to turn from cappuccino to latte foam within the first couple of times I washed it. Also, it is not dishwasher safe, and somewhat difficult to properly clean (which needs to be done every time, since it is milk running through the tubing). I would have given it 5 stars if it didn't have those issues, as well as if there was some way to change the temp of the steamed milk coming out of the nozzle, since not everyone likes their milk a medium hot temperature like I do.I bought this to go with my Krups coffee center and was very happy with the frothed milk for cappucino. It was creamy and thicker than what I could make with a pitcher. The only drawback was that it wasn't very hot. I also find it very convenient to be able to put the milk container right back in the refrigerator.I have been using this for 2 months or so now, and it works great. I use it everyday to make my morning Latte. It does a decent job of heating up the milk (it could be warmer) and a better job creating foam.
It is easy to clean and even though the markings come off that indicate Latte or Cappuccino you can still identify which side by looking at the slot (when it points up, its for cappuccino.)
Another note: when I had fresh raw milk or soy milk in it, it curdled...reaction to steel?For some reason, this attachment works great the first 5 or 6 times, than sputters and splashs milk everywhere instead of in my cup. Have cleaned the steam outlet properly, cleaned the parts thoroughly, made sure all the connections are tight... Sometimes it works perfectly but more often than not, I'm cleaning up milk splatters all over the place. Might just go back to using the steam outlet on the machine.It Did every thing it supose to and lfet my desktop counter clean and gave longer life for the milk
