Shining and noble (steel)

Actually amazing that there are no (benevolent / enthusiastic) reviews.
Unfortunately, I discovered after my purchase a good piece on Amazon.
The (high) price is quite reasonable when compared to the low-cost competitors.
First of all I would like to say briefly what the little bundle of energy all can (and some other frothers more or less good job):
Cold and warm UHT milk or whole milk (up to about 70 degrees Erhitzungstemparatur - the easiest in a refractory Glasmeßbecher in the microwave) quirlen through to creamy stiffness. Please note that the milk foam compared to the LDP will achieve approximately 3-4x larger volume.

Why, then, this high price?
1. You get a chic, designed in stainless steel milk frother with equal stand. Looks really nice, even in a sophisticated fitted kitchen.
2. The batteries are easy to remove the device, which is not always common practice (the "Severin" for example has a one
Aids have ready to remove the batteries).
3. The processing must be considered as raised - even compared to the "Cilio cappuccino maker" made of plastic, with the stand is also not so much cheaper. For this reason, the manufacturer
4. a five-year warranty! The only reason why he can mE grant, because the stainless steel version
5. has held a more powerful engine. So this is obviously for once not primarily a "disposable product". You can now even faster foaming the milk.
The environment will thank us.
6. You can use safely batteries (preferably from 2000 mAh) and will not have to complain about a lack of power! (Unlike the "Severin", already in the operating instructions should be noted that batteries may not be used)
7. In the summer there is a fan available (ok that was a joke, but for sheer force makes the part actually quite a wind).

An avid cappuccino drinkers - and in possession of a fully automatic espresso machine - I use the Milchaufschäumdüse of machines not, because the result is not comparable with that of a "manual" cappuccino maker. In addition, the milk frother is much easier to clean (just rinse under running water and return to the stand).

I could compare the "Cilio Stainless Steel" with various devices ("Dürkop", "Severin", "Cilio plastic") and consider it the best.
I'm pretty sure that you will be pleased with this product!

Addendum I to the review from 24.12.2004 (see above) on 04/01/2009:
I use the same frother as before. He has more than 500 missions since then.
My replacement dusty in the closet!
Today I use rechargeable batteries from Ansmann with 2,700 m / ah, and can recommend this combination very, because the battery only low self-discharge and have a high (actual and claimed not only by the manufacturer) carrying capacity.
Small gripe (but with daily use more than forgivable):
The color of the lettering in the grip area began several months ago slowly peel off, but in this strain (put on and take them from the metal stand) can not lead to a devaluation.
Conclusion: I highly recommend the product continues to be, as it is many times longer than the holding Billigheimer !!
