When I had seen with a friend a similar device, I also wanted to have one. I bought only a plastic, with which I was not so happy, however - it lost me when parking too much cocoa. The Decorating of CILIO is much cleaner. While it is a little cocoa out, but with the well-fitting lid can go to the cup and not schokoliert all the work surface. By design, I find him very appealing. It looks very classy and fits in any kitchen - and on the coffee table. It is easy to use - by the company logo on the page you can well remember the direction of the motif. He is outside all metal, the twist mechanism inside plastic. The 3 masks (Smiley, heart, star) can be replaced easily. So you can change the subject sometimes. (For Valentine's Day or at Christmas time) For filling we take hot chocolate, but it's also cocoa (then something bitter) or for Kuchdeko powdered sugar. I immediately ordered a second one as a gift and did not regret it.
