Battery operated wand whips up a nice foamy froth in minutes. Now you can make cafe style froth at home. Heat up your milk, pour it into a little milk jug or a glass, put the frother into the milk and push the "on" button. In seconds your milk foam will be absolutely perfect or even better froth the milk first then place the milk jug or cup in the microwave for 1 minute. No need to go out for coffee anymore. Not for the foam anyway.
