Poor design - frother wiggles in the base due to the cord not staying. Do not recommend - poor quality for the price

We’re sorry to hear that you’re not completely satisfied with your BISTRO Electric Milk Frother. The base of this device is designed with a groove to allow the cord to thread through neatly, so the base can sit flat on your table or counter.

Doesnt heat up milk enough or froth enough
1 reply from Bodum team - 2 months ago
We’re sorry to hear that you’re not completely satisfied with your BISTRO Electric Milk Frother. The BISTRO is designed to heat milk or milk alternatives to 158°F, the ideal temperature for hot beverages. For frothing, please ensure the whisk is properly attached, and for both heating and frothing, take care not to overfill the frother, as this can reduce its effectiveness - note that there may be different MAX fill lines for each function. We encourage experimenting with different types and volumes of milk to find your preferred froth consistency. If you’d like to share your feedback directly, please feel free to reach out to our customer service team at support@bodum.com. Thank you for your review!

It was missing the disk. I used it with just the wisk and it overheated and turned off within 1 minute of the first use. So either it’s just bad bad or target sold me a previously returned one.

We’re sorry to hear that your BISTRO Electric Milk Frother arrived missing a piece. We recommend contacting Target Customer Service directly for assistance with a replacement. We’d also like to know more about your experience - specifically which part was missing and how that may have contributed to the overheating. Please feel free to reach out to our customer service team at support@bodum.com with more details. Note that this frother features a built-in temperature shut-off, which activates when the device reaches the optimal temperature of 158°F, typically within a minute. Please also note that we do not recommend operating any electrical appliance without all of its components in place and in proper condition. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

I loved this when I first got it. Used it at most 3 times a week and it stopped working after about 10 months and then just completely stopped doing anything. I have tired everything and cant seem to get it to work again. Customer service did nothing. I wouldnt waste your money on a Bodum, try something else.

We’d like to learn more about the piece that broke off, so please feel free to reach out to our customer service team at support@bodum.com with additional details. Please note that the whisk attachment is designed to be removable for easy cleaning.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re not completely satisfied with your BISTRO Electric Milk Frother. This device is designed to heat and froth milk to an optimal 158°F, ensuring the perfect temperature for drinkability while preventing scorching. To achieve the best results, please avoid overfilling the container, as too much milk can affect the frother's performance. If issues persist or you'd like to share your feedback directly with our customer service team, please feel free to reach out at support@bodum.com. Thank you for your review!

Meh on the function - ok frothing and heating. Terrible to clean. Always milk in the bottom, whether I soak or rinse or whatever. So annoying. Difficult even to get out with a soft brush. Not a good design.
1 reply from Bodum team - 6 months ago
We’re sorry to hear that you’re not completely satisfied with your BISTRO Milk Frother. While the interior is non-stick coated, and the device has a boil-dry protection function, it is still possible for milk and foam residue to become cooked on if the device reheats repeatedly. The frother has an automatic reheating function that will reheat any remaining milk if the temperature drops below 120°F. If a small amount of milk or foam is left in the frother after its first use, and the frother is left on, the remainder under the MIN line can get cooked on and become hard to remove. To avoid this, we recommend always turning the device off after use. Additionally, ensure the device is always filled past the MIN line and rinse it out immediately after use to prevent milk and foam from drying onto the interior. We hope this helps improve your experience, but if the issues persist, please feel free to reach out directly to our customer service team at support@bodum.com. Thank you for your review!

Stopped frothing milk each time after a few months. More often the milk was warmed but not frothed.
1 reply from Bodum team - 7 months ago
We’re sorry to hear about the trouble with your Electric Milk Frother. For optimal performance, ensure the frothing whisk is thoroughly cleaned after each use, as any buildup can impact its effectiveness. Additionally, overfilling the container can reduce froth quality, so be sure to fill only up to the max line. We also recommend experimenting with different types of milk, as each produces a unique froth consistency, allowing you to find the one that suits your preference. If issues persist or you’d like to share more details about your experience, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team at support@bodum.com. Thank you for your review!

Didn’t froth all types of milk, 2% seemed to froth the best. Milk was very warm but never hot (wanted hot milk) and worst of all, it stopped working after 4 months. Maybe I got a dud but not worth it in general. Back to the Nespresso Aerocchino…spendy but worth it.
1 reply from Bodum team - 7 months ago
We’re sorry to hear that your Electric Milk Frother didn’t meet your expectations. When not overfilled, it should effectively froth all types of milk, though we recommend using cold, low-fat milk for the best results. Be sure the whisk is securely attached and cleaned after each use, as buildup can impact performance. The frother is designed to heat milk to 158°F, the ideal temperature for hot beverages, while preventing scalding. If you’d like to share more details about how the device stopped working, please contact our customer service team at support@bodum.com. Thank you for your review!

Habitdashery - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
I’ve used this twice daily for a year, and it is still going strong. Works great for non-dairy milk as well as regular milk. You can use the frother multiple times in a row, just wait a few minutes for the machine to cool down. Took off 1 star as I noticed inconsistency in dairy milk frothing, sometimes making more foam and sometimes less. Non-dairy frothing is very consistent. Overall a great budget friendly frother!

We're sorry to hear your experience with our Electric Milk Frother has been less than satisfactory. The whisk attachment is designed to begin spinning once the milk starts heating, provided it's securely attached to the spindle at the bottom of the frother and the milk levels are within the MIN and MAX lines. If the problem persists, please contact our customer service team at support@bodum.com. Providing further details will help us assist you better and investigate the problem. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
