Does the Job.
I bought this after my fancy Morphy Richards cappuccino maker died after about 20 uses (and I couldn't be bothered to argue with MR when they didn't seem interested in doing anything about it). I now use a simple espresso cafetiere plus this to make my weekend cappuccinos. I've gone through a number of different milk frothers--manual pumps, battery-operated whisks, and several that use the same technology as the VonShef--all with disappointing results. Some didn't froth reliably or at all, but the most common issue I've found is that, while they do froth milk, the foam they produce reverts to flat milk in no time...er...flat, when the foam is added to warm coffee. For some reason, the VonShef works where others, seemingly identical, don't. It froths the milk every time, and the milk stays foamy in my mug for several minutes until the coffee's gone...and then some.
