Totally worth the 130 odd bucks paid. I thought to give it a try reading the mixed reviews and also it was fulfilled by Amazon so no excess courier charges for me. Added it with my other items and received it well ahead of promised delivery date. When I opened the Parcel I was shocked to see such a small stirrer, the actual stirrer is very small in size. Already had two AA batteries hence inserted them and covered the lid. Switched on the machine, didn't work. Then again removed the lid and again inserted it. Switched on the machine and lo it started spinning ./ stirring with good power. The small machine has got lot of power in it. Used it to make cappuccino and it came out too frothy just had to drink the froth :). Gotta try to froth it for very little time, even 10 secs seems more than enough to froth the coffee powder / sugar decotion and then adding the frothed milk also counts. I wanted to buy such portable stirrer since long time and watched many videos on youtube on how to use a portable stirrer and make cappuccino, etc. For people complaining about the power of the product do remember to watch the videos on youtube carefully and see how to use the product. The product is designed to run only fully immersed under the liquid (for mixing) or half immersed in liquid / half outside for frothing air into the mixture. If the product touches the base or side walls of container (glass / kettle etc) it may stop working or malfunction. This is not a heavy duty stirrer. Hence see the proper method to use the frother and use it to make superb CCD style cappuccinos.
