I have mixed feelings about the milk frother attachment. It does make making lattes easy especially if you are making drinks for more than one person it is worth the extra time to clean it. However it does take more time to set up and clean than just using the frothing wand on the machine so I don’t use it unless I’m making more than one drink. It does connect easily it just attaches where the frothing wand comes out and clips to the bottom as well. You are able to adjust the amount of foam for making lattes as well as cappuccinos. I wish it was taller my coffee cups don’t fit under the wand so I have to use the frothing pitcher to get the steamed milk and then poor in my proffered mug.
