Product Description Caff?? Froth's?? patented design transforms non-fat milk into rich, creamy froth. Perfect for delicious cappuccinos, lattes and mochas.

Amazon.com Review Enjoy a fluffy cappuccino at home without the purchase of an expensive, complicated espresso machine. With the Caffe Froth Maximus from BonJour, you can prepare cafe lattes or steamed almond milk without risking burns or milk diluted by water steam wands. To create foam, merely microwave milk in the carafe and pump the French press-style frother screen up and down two or three times. The carafe features a German borosilicate glass construction that fares well under microwave heat. Both rod and screen are made of high-quality stainless steel for durability and simple cleaning. A rubberized handle provides a comfortable, cool grip while the rubber base prevents scratching delicate tables and countertops. The frother also comes equipped with a long-handled, plastic foam scoop. For best care, wash the frother by hand. Microwave the frother without the stainless-steel dome, rod, and screen to ensure safety. The frother stands 8-3/4 inches tall with a 2-1/2-inch diameter, and weighs 2 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Does the job, but be careful! April 1, 2008 This is a good frother in that it does what it's supposed to. You fill it up with milk, pump the handle up and down a few times, and you're good to go. However, there are frothers that are easier to use (i.e. the handheld battery-powered ones) that require less set-up and effort. My only major complaint is that this breaks VERY easily. The glass is extremely thin, and the metal lid and pump/frother make it pretty top heavy. I have set this down a few times in the sink, only to have it topple over and shatter. (I've gone through 3 of these!) If you don't want to deal with broken glass and/or have kids/pets who may knock this over and hurt themselves, I'd suggest looking at another milk frother.
coffee foamer March 15, 2008 This is the third one I've purchased. The glass is really thin and they brake easily. But, I love it.

I wanted to create the starbucks foamy latte/cappuccino coffees for a long time already. did so much research and tried Bialetti's mukka express cappuccino maker, it did not work for me at all. After I returned it I got the Hamilton beach cappuccino machine, the expresso was light and couldn't switch to any stronger mode. the milk frothing was a mess, the steel part was soo small and short and splashes everywhere while it makes 10 sec lasting water down froth, finally it stoped working and I returned it again. I gave up until I give it a last try with the much cheaper Boujour milk frothing pump. and it is such a mystery! it worked so good and made a whole bottle of creamy not bubbly foam. I'm soo happy I finially found the one! its wonderful if all you need is a milk frother. do know that you might wanna be more careful with it not to drop it( it's a light thin glass). wish all milk froth suffering cappuccinoaholics be saved by this tool

How does this little gadget work? It's a mystery - about 1/3 cup of skim milk bursts into a sweet froth with 20 plunges. My favorite concoction is a before-bedtime (and apres-cross-country ski)concoction of hot cocoa, toppped with froth, sprinkled lightly with cinnamon and/or nutmeg. (For sweetener, I sometimes stir a thimble-full of Splenda into the froth.)
I like my coffee straight up - dark and black - but I've enjoyed a froth toppping now and then.
The inventors wisely include a long-handled sturdy plastic spoon. I understand that a metal spoon can chip or even crack the glass tube.
Highly recommended!
