Is the frother mechanism itself a paddle formation, or a round spring? Thanks.

Francis ~ it is a round spring, offset from center and it makes amazing foam. We've tried 2 other brands and this is by far the best - used ours for about a year now without a problem. The frother spring comes out easily for cleaning. Go for it!

I see that someone answered that it is a round spring. Since I bought this as a gift I do not know.

no, this strictly a manual frother. It is easy to clean and I love it. You pour your milk in to the fill line and just push the plunger up and down a few times. I love it.

The wand is not detachable. The handle is made of plastic. But the good sturdy kind of plastic. I've only had the Kuissential frother for about a month and it's still going strong. I actually brought it with me on a vacation with friends. My friends thought I was funny that I brought It, but then couldn't believe how perfect the cappuccinos and latte's came out. They all went out and ordered one. Also, I think this is a great stocking stuffer idea. It really is one of my favorite purchases this year!

If it's slightly different, it is likely a paddle for lattes. It's designed to produce a bit less froth.

The one we received as 16oz/400ml. As others stated, that's completely filled to the top without the frother in place.

The white cap Is a splash guard. It is not actually attached to the frother or glass. It lightly braces itself in the narrowest part of the glass.

Yes, it is; however the little removable spinning frother has a plastic attachment that attaches to the inside which is plastic also.

It's definitely not round. It is, however, pretty wonderful. After being treated to charcoal soap my friend brought back from Japan and failing to find something similar in stores here in he US, this is a great replacement.

The knob on the left has three positions. The top one is for frothing milk, the middle position is the off position, and the bottom position is for brewing the expresso. So you have to move the nozzle from froth to brew in the middle of the cycle. Make sure you don't stop at the off position when it is under pressure with the water. I don't know what will happen, but the instructions warn against this.

No you must hold the button down, but it's so powerful that it froths immediately. It's the best and most powerful frother I've ever owned. I highly recommend.

Yes, it's is spring loaded. You can fit 7 cups in each section. Pull one out and the next one pushes forward.

The best advice I can give is to push the spring loaded plunger on the milk frother with a toothpick and make sure it moves freely. It not a bad idea to take it apart (the frother) and clean all the parts once a week or so.. However once the pressure release valve on the side goes bad there's nothing you can do as I have not been able to find replacement parts. Had to throw mine away

The spout button is springloaded and needs to be held down while filling or pouring from the kettle.

The frother vessel is portable for easy access and cleaning. Has two frothing discs and works as advertised to date. Great product and coffee program. Euro style.

There is a piece included that covers the spout from top to bottom and is removable. Could that be a froth separator?

Yes, it is! The froth just has to be spooned off the top. Great little gadget.

It is round on the bottom half and then it slims down where the filter sits. The handle is very graceful and easy to hold while pouring. The picture shows this but not very well. Hope this helps Patricia. Cleaning is easy because of the shape by the way, and the water does flow through the filter quickly.
