I ordered this milk frother as a xmas gift for my daughter for her morning lattes. The frother is very heavy/sturdy and has a lot of power.  The stand holds the frother just fine. The reason for the two stars is the part that actually spins to froth the milk continually falls off! What a pain to have to spoon out that metal piece from your coffee.  This happens at least every other day.  There isn’t a way to tighten it.  Because of this vital defect I can’t recommend this product.
