5.0 out of 5 stars Good product, but quite LARGE, February 28, 2008

This product is inexpensive and well constructed.

But I think I did a mistake my not purchasing a smaller pitcher. I have a Mc Coffee machine that makes a decent cappuccino and I needed a pitcher such as this one. Unfortunately, I did not notice that the size of this pitcher was too large given the length of the steamer in my coffee machine. I am the only one who drinks coffee in my household, so I usually need only a small quantity of milk for my cappuccino. But then I found out that if I use the quantity of milk I usually need, the steamer does not even touch the milk, because the pitcher is too deep.

So, I would recommend this pitcher highly if you routinely prepare at least two cappuccinos, but otherwise you may want to check carefully the size of both the pitcher and the steamer in your coffee machine before buying this product.

I bought this pitcher as a gift for my brother, who is an aspiring at-home barista, from me, who is an experienced barista. Several of the pitchers on Amazon were great, but I chose Krups because the unique style really caught my attention. I love the extended handle vs. the traditional!
Other than aesthetically pleasing, it's a great pitcher. No problems so far... it is good quality and serves its purpose very well. 20oz is the minimum size, I think, for making a drink for one person. It holds the milk and gives you enough room to comfortably steam and froth. I wouldn't go any smaller. Go up from here if you intend to make more than one drink at a time. Would definitely buy from Krups again!

I read several reviews before making my purchase, and followed the advice that warned against buying a pitcher that would be too small. The picture provided is not a true representation of the pitcher I received. Mine is 3.5 inches tall, 11 inches around at the top and almost 13 inches around at the bottom - it has a gradual flare. There is plenty of room when holding the handle to move this pitcher around to steam and froth without touching any part of the equipment. The milk does just about double in size. I am pleased with my purchase.
