Elementi Frother Electric Handheld Emerald Reviews Summary

Performance

Pros:

• "This little guy is a powerhouse! Froths cold milk in just a few seconds."
• "It works AMAZING! I’ve used it on so many things other than frothing and it works so well!!!!"
• "Easy to use with a push of the bottom and lots of power. Simply use, rinse under hot water, and place back in the stand."
• "The unit is powerful for a battery operated device."
• "Works like a charm, the high rpm froths up the milk in seconds."
• "Sturdy and easy to use. I used it to froth warm oat milk and it created tons of foamy goodness in about 20 seconds."
• "It's powerful and can froth any milk - I use it exclusively for almond milk now and it works perfect."

Cons:

• "These two units both stopped working. The first within a day, the second worked for about a week."
• "It works well until it doesn't."
• "Starts out great but seems to quickly lose power."
• "Frother is so weak it struggles to spin with just milk."
• "The product description claims this product has a 'high-speed motor.' However, the rotation speed and power of the mixer drop significantly when immersed in liquid, with poor results."
• "The motor is too weak to froth or mix."
• "Blending power is pretty weak. Brand new batteries installed."

Design and Ease of Use

Pros:

• "Its sleek design and chrome stand looks great next to our Keurig."
• "Love the purple color. Looks great on the counter in the stand it comes with."
• "The colors are awesome, the design is easy to hold and the button is easy to push so you control the motor (no on/off switch)."
• "It's ergonomic and is made of the perfect, grip-friendly material."
• "This is attractive & light weight & pleasant to handle."
• "I love that it comes with a stand so that it's not being thrown around in the kitchen."
• "It's the complete package. Nice color, fit's the hand. It works as I wanted it to."

Cons:

• "Rusted very fast internally which caused a piece of metal to break off."
• "Awkward & difficult to insert batteries."
• "The battery compartment is VERY VERY TIGHT-this is a problem--It is VERY difficult to get the 2AA batteries in & NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to get the BATTERIES OUT."
• "You have to hold the button down which is difficult because it takes so long to froth."
• "The stand came handy. Frothing well. Wish it's more easy to thumb down... odd position to press n froth. I have to use 2 hands to froth :-("
• "I had to give two stars because the battery part became white and stopped working."
• "The only reason I took off one star was because the batteries are really tight and hard to get out and it’s so lightweight I don’t know how well it will hold up."

Reliability and Longevity

Pros:

• "Construction SEEMS worthy for long term daily use-TIME WILL TELL."
• "I use this frother every day for my morning coffee and it does a great job getting my soy/oat milk creamer wonderfully frothy."
• "This has been used sparingly (works great) over two years."
• "I’ve had this for two years and it’s still going strong. It’s used every day."
• "After 3 years this thing is still kicking IT IS TOTALLY WORTH THE BUY!"
• "I change batteries every other month, and the frother itself lasts under two years (hence the spare always on hand)."
• "Was great for 2 years but started losing speed/power a few months ago but could still use."

Cons:

• "Already had to order a different, more sturdy brand. Mine broke with daily use for only one cup per day!!"
• "It burnt out pretty soon after purchasing and it barely worked while it was still going."
• "Loved it when it worked. Bought it 2 weeks ago and it has now stopped working."
• "This is my second frother from Elementi and the same problem exists. They work for the first set of batteries, but when the batteries die so does the frother."
• "I absolutely love using this to froth my green teas and coffee drinks... after about 10(ish) uses it died on me."
• "The item worked great the first few months and then began to slow down and quit working."
• "Stopped working right after return window closed. Changed batteries twice, made no difference. Sluggish and doesn’t froth."

Customer Service and Warranty

Pros:

• "I went to buy a new one and saw there is a 2 year warranty and reached out to the seller for a replacement. It arrived quickly and the customer service was excellent."
• "Had a few questions contacted Co and was impressed with their excellent customer service."
• "My frother stopped working after 6 months but I am giving this product 5 stars because... I emailed the company and they immediately sent me a new one."
• "Within a day of failure, contact made with customer support. Janice S. made this warranty replacement seamless."
• "Purchased in July... Edit: The manufacturer contacted me and sent a replacement! The replacement works perfectly."
• "Had a problem with the frother not shutting off. Contacted customer service and was very impressed with the results."
