I purchased a Ninja coffee maker with the separate froth jar like thing, well that broke, cracked almost immediately so I purchased this. Amazing, quiet, and heats and froths the milk in one easy step. Almond milk also as I do not drink milk, it does a great job, I absolutely love it, best cappuccino and latte ever. Love it highly recommend, also very easy to clean and little froth spinners store under unit. They even give you extra ones. Did I say I love it???
