I am a real 'latina coffee snob' and this cappuccino maker makes fantastic coffee - inconsistently. When you least expect it, most of the coffee does not rise up, staying on the bottom portion of the unit. The more coffee you make, the better it is but every now and then...losing so much coffee that didn't rise takes to much away from the machine. It is difficult and tedious to clean as well because of the milk on top and the inability to submerge the bottom portion. With that being said, the idea is brilliant and with patience this machine does make delicious cappuccino.
I love it. I would like to have it in a 2-cup brewer - with the cow print. I see two-cup brewers and more cups, but not with the cow print.
What is good about it? It makes me happy - just looking at it!
