Cleaning struck me as easily. Wipe with a household sponge after use and rinse with water. Finished the arbor. No problem. If you want to get out of stubborn dirt (see below), just pure water and a little dishwasher cleaner and turn on. Since everything is spick and span again.
Now the downside.
If one morning a bit tired takes the pot with the foam of pedestal, because the foam is ready and then set the empty pot back on the pedestal without having turned the switch to Off, happens only once nothing. Man thinks no evil and leaves the house. At some point, however, if the pot is cold, the power turns on again. And because the switch then is still set to "On", the machine stirs - without milk. It then goes off and on and off again, as long until you come back home and realize what's going on. That's happened to me a few times and I think this is impossible. It can not be that such a pot for hours unattended is always very hot. If I were the company, I would fix this constructive errors quickly. This can otherwise sometimes be very expensive.
Second drawback: The Agitator in the device is driven by a magnet, sitting in pedestal. That's a brilliant idea, which has also very good funktioniet. However, in my unit a few weeks before the effect of the magnet has become increasingly weaker. This has the result that the agitator after a short time flies from the axis and the milk is no longer proposes to foam.
Now I can throw the equipment into the trash. I consider it a tremendous waste of the raw materials that make up the device to throw in the trash after a relatively short time. Rumzuärgern me for 31 with the manufacturer with uncertain prospects for success, has seen commercial for me a minus business. Since I buy then stop but rather just another frother.
