Do. Not. Waste. Your. Money.
I should have believed the prior one-star reviews. The battery compartment doesn't stay closed. The button, which is inconveniently located, is impossible to press by finger - and I'm a farmer and rock climber, I have strong fingers. When the button does work (by holding the unit with both hands and jamming the button with the handle of a spoon), the shaft wobbles wildly and the speed is slow. I guess I don't know what I expected from a $15 "stainless" frother with middling reviews, but this is complete garbage. It's in the trash 15 minutes after I got home, and I ordered one with solid reviews online from another store.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re not completely satisfied with your SCHIUMA Milk Frother. To secure the battery cap, first ensure that the curve of the cap is aligned with the curve of the device’s base, and then press firmly until tabs snap into place. To operate, note that the SCHIUMA has a power switch, which should be gently pressed to the side - away from the curved edge of the device’s base - as opposed to directly down. The frother’s speed is optimized for about 2-4oz of milk or milk alternative; once the whisk is inserted into your frothing vessel, operating the frother for 20-30 seconds while moving it gently up and down will yield the best results. As for the wobbly post, we would like to know more about your experience in order to better understand what could be causing it - please feel free to reach out directly to our customer service team at support@bodum.com with additional details. Thank you for your review!

We’re sorry to hear that you’ve had a difficult experience with your SCHIUMA Milk Frother. Please note that the SCHIUMA is operated by a power switch, which should be pressed gently to the side - away from the curved edge of the device’s base - instead of directly down, like a button. We hope this helps to improve your experience. If you would 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!

Used rusted Frother bought new
Opened the box. The frother looked dirty and used. The end of it was rusty. The inside where you put the batteries was rusted and the lid was rusty? Heading to return. How does this happen?

Doesnt work
Doesn’t even turn on. Going back tomorrow.
1 reply from Bodum team - 2 months ago
We’re sorry to hear that your SCHIUMA Milk Frother won’t turn on. Please note that this frother requires two AA batteries correctly inserted according to the graphic instructions inside the battery compartment; to secure the battery cap, ensure that the curve of the cap is aligned with the curved edge of the device’s base and push firmly until the tabs snap into place. To operate, gently push the power switch to the side, away from the curved edge of the base—this is a switch, not a button, so pressing directly down will not activate the device. We would appreciate the chance to hear more about your experience so we can better investigate what might have gone wrong; please feel free to reach out directly to our customer service team at support@bodum.com with more details. Thank you for your review!

Simply does not work
I purchased this and it literally doesn’t even work. The item should be listed as a hand mixer/whisk because it certainly does not function as a battery operated unit.

Design Flaw
Dislike that the cover pops off easily and the batteries come spilling out.

Beautiful dysfunction
Pros: it's fast and looks aesthetically pleasing Cons: The battery cap *cannot* stay on for the life of this thing. Whoever designed it must've never actually used it for more than a board room demo. There has not been a time I've used it that the cap did not pop off. There's just not a good enough latching mechanism on it. It seems like someone was trying to get ambitious having a battery cap that doubles as a tactile on switch (which, for the record is weird and unintuitive, though perhaps more accessible for those with limited mobility? If the cap stayed on? It also is really hard to hold and use at the same time?) All in all a very promising-looking product that was designed by someone with troublingly absent design sense. Such a beautiful object doesn't deserve such glaring flaws preventing it from ever being an excellent product. 2/5 since it looks beautiful, would not buy again.

I don’t know if I got a faulty one but this was the worse frother I’ve ever used.
1 reply from Bodum team - 6 months ago
We’re sorry to hear that you’re not satisfied with your SCHIUMA Milk Frother. For best results, use 2–4 oz of milk or milk alternative, submerge the whisk near the bottom of your glass or pitcher, and gently press the power switch on the bottom of the device away from the curved edge of the base. Operate the frother for 20–30 seconds while slowly raising and lowering it in the liquid. If you’re still experiencing issues, please feel free to reach out to our customer service team at support@bodum.com with more details so we can better understand your experience. Thank you for your review!

Cap falls off
Cap keeps falling off like the other reviews say. I’ve had it over a year and this has been happening for at least five of those months. I wouldn’t recommend buying this item.

To secure the battery cap, first ensure that the curve of the cap is aligned with the curve of the device’s base, then press firmly until the tabs snap into place - note that the cap only fits properly in one direction. We hope that aside from this frustration, your SCHIUMA has helped you enjoy delicious, creamy froth in your favorite coffee. Thank you for your review!

Worth it
Trust me, the more expensive one is worth it. I’ve bought four, yes FOUR cheap versions of this thing. They are died quickly. But I like having one so I ponyed up and bought the fancy one. Worth it. And I would have saved money if I’d bought this one first.

Broke after first use
I used this once without issue, and the second time it fell apart. The coil became unwrapped, but even when I twisted it back on it would immediately unwrap again when turning the unit on. Waste of money to spend $10 on a single use.

Horribly made.
CAP WILL NOT STAY ON. This frother would be OK, pretty average, but the cap with the batteries and switch won’t stay on long enough to even use the product. Had to tape it shut just so I could use it. I’ve had it less than a year and I’m ready to throw it out. Do yourself a favor and buy a different product.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing some issues with your SCHIUMA Milk Frother. To secure the battery cap, ensure that the curve of the cap is aligned with the curve of the device’s base, then press firmly until the tabs snap into place. The cap will only secure in one orientation, so if it’s not properly aligned, it won’t lock correctly. If you continue to have trouble, please feel free to reach out directly to our customer service team at support@bodum.com. Thank you for your review!
