This is the Nespresso Aeroccino 3. It comes from Switzerland, a country known for neat clocks and hiding money, but here they decided to fix the problem of people rushing through life with bad, sad morning coffee.

The Aeroccino makes hot or cold milk foam with one simple button. There are no strange steam pipes to clean or loud noises to wake up your neighbors. The inside has a ceramic coating, so the milk does not stick, making it a very sensible thing for your kitchen.

Nestlé, the company behind this, actually started in the 1860s making baby formula. Now they specialize in helping adults wake up. This specific frother became a design icon simply because it does not look like an ugly piece of warehouse plastic box.

The Nespresso Aeroccino 3 milk frother is also available on Amazon.
