Product DescriptionThe ultimate difference between enjoying coffee at home and enjoying it at a coffeehouse is not so much the coffee, it's the foam! Well, not anymore. With the electric Bodum Turbo Frother you will be able to get the same firm result in no time. Heat up your milk in the glass beaker, insert the frother and push the 'on' button. In seconds, your milk foam will be absolutely perfect. You can also froth the milk first, then place the beaker in the microwave for 1 minute. No need to go out for coffee anymore. Not for the foam anyway. Comes with a two year limited warranty. Requires 2 AA batteries, not included. 6.5 oz
What Others Say
CONSIDER BUYING ANOTHER MILK FROTHER
I BOUGHT THIS ON CLEARANCE FROM A DILLARD'S DEPARTMENT STORE THAT WAS CLOSING IT'S DOORS...FORTUNATELY, I ONLY PAID AROUND $16.00. IT DOESN'T FROTH WELL AT ALL. I HAVE NOT TRIED THE MORE EXPENSIVE FROTHERS YET...BUT I WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK TO THE MANUAL HAND PUMP MODEL (INSERT PIECE LOOKS LIKE A COFFEE PRESS)...IT DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB OF MAKING THICK FROTH.

Stick with the manual one!
My manual plunger Bodum got a chip in the top (which I ended up being able to smooth out successfully with a nail file) so I went on Amazon to see if they still made this and was happy to see that they do, but noticed the $19.99 automatic one-touch battery operated version and thought I would try it instead since it seemed to be an "improved" version. While easy to use and nicely designed, it does a POOR job of its basic function, frothing milk. I can't get anywhere near the volume of froth that I had with the plunger Bodum; which always gave excellent results. I know many people say use lowfat milk but I mostly used Half & Half, heated in microwave, then plunged quickly until I got double volume or more. Sometimes new and improved isn't ... Read More
