How long does the frother last? Most break after a couple of months.

I have been using this for a few months now, and it still seems as durable as it originally did. I will stress that this is NOT a high powered frother, so that may be one reason why it lasts.

We've been using it for a month, so far so good. The frothed milk is not as using a real hot steam frother but it works for the price and faster ways.

Mine's been working well since I bought it, it's been through one set of batteries (that came with it) and I put a new set in last week. With the new batteries it is super powerful, I have whipped heavy cream with it, frothing milk only takes a few seconds if you are making 1-2 servings or so. I bought it about 3 months ago I think.

Where are the whisks stored "Apple-like" inside?? ours suddenly stopped frothing but is still warming, one month old. I didn't change anything out - is there a setting we might accidentally have hit? Help pls, love this foam <3

I don't but I actually need to replace mine as well. With mine, the frother starting making odd sounds and while steam would come out of the want it would not froth the milk. I'm not sure if you have the same problem but I was able to fix mine in the interim. I determined that there was a loss in seal with the plastic gasket that goes inside the metal wand housing. I applied some duct tape to the housing and then slid the gasket on over the top, using some force to make sure it was very snug. That fixed the problem immediately and that solution has worked well for a few months now. I do plan to reach out to DeLonghi customer service however to inquire about new parts at some point.

Ours snapped too after about seven months of use, looking for a replacement now. Love the Bona cleaning and polishing solutions, but the mop itself not so much.

I've had mine for about 2 and a half years now and it just broke. It's also seen heavy use. If you do the occasional job.. you're probably fine.

We have had 3 of these pots. They seem to have a life of about 18-24 months and then one day they just quit. Makes great coffee and love the carafe feature. We have learned to keep a cheap spare for the morning it breaks. The problem is that not many make a 12 cup carafe style, so the options are very limited.

Ufortunately the product is really bad. I had other serious problems with mine. I lasted less than 2 months before 1) pause to pour stopped working, then 2) the heating plate just overheated (thermostat issue I presume) and overheated boiling the coffee in the pot. Threw in the trash. The last 4 coffee makers I have purchased, all different brands, have ended very badly and very quickly (1month to 6 months for the longest life). They are all bad and not made to last. Now have a Keurig with issues. Sorry I cannot give more constructive feedback. Good luck!

I went through 3 of them, only because the store I bought the first one in kept giving me an exchange, no questions asked. After the 3rd one went, I said enough is enough, and picked up a CBTL-brand frother. I've had it now since Christmas, and even though it gets used about 2x a day, it is still working fine (and its still quiet!).

Mine broke after about 6 months. Not sure if I will buy another. The pump doesn't last long

Mine has lasted at least a couple of hours. I haven't needed it longer than that.

I always pull off the wand part of the frother and rinse it, and wipe the milk off the part still attached every time I use it. I take off the other attached part and clean the metal part of the wand only every couple of weeks. I do try to keep the gasket wiped off with a sponge, as coffee grounds get stuck in the groove.

Used it infrequently so it lasted a few months, but assume with frequent use a couple of weeks would be my guess. Maybe 3.

This is the best one that I have used. My first one lasted for several years. My newer ones have not. I do use it everyday, so I can justify because of use and price that I replace it every year. They really don't make them like they used too. I have found that different battery brands change the frothers performance.

I gave up on it after replacing it twice. I am now using a different frother made by CBTL. It was less expensive and has lasted much longer than the Keurig version.

Not sure, I've only had it a couple of months. With normal usage it should last at least a year or maybe more.

I would call Drinkwell and ask if they will replace the motor. 5 months is not long But , I will tell you I don't think the motors are the best made. I am on my second one .

Mine did not last long enough to even get that far; it crapped out a little over a month from purchase just making normal morning smoothies. Other people had the same problem, and the warranty was only 30 days. What a piece of junk; worst purchase I have made in a while. The only reason I bought it was the name, and the merchandise was unworthy of that name.
