PowerLix Handheld Electric Milk Frother - Battery Operated Mini Whisk for Coffee, Latte, Cappuccino & Hot Chocolate - Durable Drink Mixer with Stainless Steel Stand (Black) - Perfect for Home, Office & Coffee Shops

I purchased this item because another I had bought stopped working after about 5x. This comes with a lifetime warranty (it says, call them and they will replace). I have used it nearly every morning for over a month without problems. It froths my fat-free milk (with a tsp. of flavored creamer) like a cappuccino. Coffee is now an event instead of just a wake-up.I have used other frothers in the past, but Powerlix is by far the best one out there. Its extremely powerful. the only downside is that the battery life is not the greatest when compared to other frothers. It should run fine for atleast for a couple of months on 2 AA batteries with no issues. The motor lasts a decent amount of time. My current one has been running with the same intensity for the past 2 years. Even if it did fail, its not too expensive to buy another one.Only used a few times and it works perfect. Exactly what I need to add protein powder and MCT to hot coffee for a great tasting drink with cafe textures. So far so goodI use this for frothing, of course. It’s also fantastic for making salad dressings or anything else you need a little bit of blending that doesn’t quite call for the immersion blender, but a fork won’t quite do what you need.When my 12-plus-year-old frothing machine finally became too difficult to clean, I bought a replacement machine. It scorched milk so quickly that I returned it, and then decided to try this battery-operated alternative. I wish I'd done it years ago. This one froths milk quickly and well, takes up limited counter space, and is easy to clean. I've only been using it for three days, and if problems develop, I'll update this review. But I'm a very satisfied buyer now.One note: it takes some trial and error to determine your best frothing time. This is so quick and powerful that it's easy to end up with a much stiffer froth than you wanted if you keep whisking too long. And as others have said, it's easy to decorate your walls and ceiling with milk splatters if you pull the whisk too close to the liquid surface. But if you just follow the manufacturer's directions about positioning the whisk, and use it in short stages so you don't over-froth, it turns out a beautiful batch of foamy milk.I love this milk frother! As you can see in the pictures, it is powerful! That's a half cup of milk mixed with half and half in each picture that I frothed for almost 10 seconds, not even for the full time they say to, with 6 oz of coffee brewed over it, and every time I'm afraid it will spill over! The instructions say to froth for 30 seconds, but I find even just 5 or 10 seconds is perfect. The stand that the frother sits in is the best! It can fall over easily if not put in there carefully, but I've had no issues with it. I also love how easy it is to keep the frother. Just place the frother part in a cup of hot water and push the button 1 or 2 times, and it's clean! I run it under the sink too and then press the button to air dry. Super easy!! I've been using this thing now for half a year now and still loving it! I am very pleased with this purchase!I didn’t know what to expect so I tried a small amount of milk in a glass & the frother got my skim milk to frothy then to unpourable stage so quickly. I love it.I make a chai tea latte most mornings and this has worked like a charm frothing milk to go in it. I've had it since this summer and the first set of batteries lasted for a bit over 3 months using it almost every day, certainly no less than 5 times a week. If you're not getting the same type of froth as easily as you once were, a change of batteries will perk it right back up. I think it takes a lot to kill a good set of batteries in this, I have been changing them when I notice a significant loss in speed, not because the batteries are completely dead.I was trying to nail down how my chai tea latte tasted best, along with how to keep the calories the lowest. So thru my many different combos I have used this to froth 2% milk, 1 % milk, soy milk, vanilla soy milk, unsweetened soy milk, almond milk, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, regular oat milk and low fat oat milk. All have been able to froth, it's just a matter of milk temperature and technique to get it to froth and foam. Watch a few videos on YouTube if you're not sure, it definitely helped me with technique. It varies widely on the best way, but if you aren't having success, try warming it up or frothing for a longer amount of time. And sometimes you may think you've done that and you're still not getting results, but it's honestly quite likely, you need the milk to be hot, not just warm. In my experience the plant milks froth fine at warm temps, but 1% and 2% need to be hot in order to get it to froth and foam the way you most likely want. It will look like it's doing something when it's at a warm temp, but once you finish frothing, you'll likely see flat bubbles that will disappear quickly. So adjust the milk temperature if you're not seeing the froth or foam that you want and expect to see.Also, I'm not sure if every frother has this, but the stand that comes with it is absolute perfection and is worth paying a slightly higher price to get. I hadn't considered it when choosing which one to buy and now I never want to have this without it. Such a convenient, inconspicuous storage option, just sits right on the counter and gets little attention.Highly recommend this milk frother. I wasn't sure I made a mistake when I first ordered this after seeing so many videos with people using the plug-in automated ones, but I'm thrilled I went with this first. It was completely unnecessary to spend 2 to 3 times as much for the other ones and this takes up less space and is much, much easier to clean.Utter crap. Tried multiple sets of brand new Duracell batteries and none worked. Mechanism worse than cheaper Asda bog standard whisk. Really not worth the bother.Ich habe mir diesen kleinen Quirl nicht zum Milchschaum machen zugelegt. Ich habe einen Magenbypass und muss deshalb täglich Proteinpulver zu mir nehmen. Im Frühstückscappuccino ist das wunderbar unterzubringen. Ich hatte nur das Problem, dass mir das Eiweißpulver immer "klumpig" wurde beim Einrühren. Mit dem kleinen Quirl funktioniert das fantastisch und ich habe keine Klümpchen mehr. Eine prima Sache. Die Lieferung war zügig und die Verpackung einwandfrei. Der kleine Ständer ist das Tüpfelchen auf dem I. Jederzeit wieder.Bought as a replacement for a more expensive Frother and this is hands down a better buy . Comes with its own stand so doesnt get chucked in a drawer . Battery powered so as long as you keep spares although had for several months and use daily . As I only use filter coffee this gives a super milk froth top . I also use Barrista Oat milks and froths as well as any you would buy in a coffee shopI bought this whisk because I was tired of mixing my coffee with a teaspoon. I was amazed how well this blends my coffee, sugar, cacao, butter in the cup. There are no lumps left behind like before when I used to use a teaspoon to blend. It takes a few seconds to blend everything and there is a nice froth at the top.I been using this whisk for over a month now (once a day) with the first set of batteries and it's kept it's power and still whizzing away. The button on the top is awesome because you can instantly turn it on/off as needed.Be careful to put it all the way in the cup before switching it on because first time I used it I didn't do this and it created a mess and my blinds were covered in splashes of coffee. Lesson learnt! It's a powerful.
