The test
General information
We have looked at and tested the product in detail in a practical test. In the following, we take a closer look at the features and impressions. The product is subjected to our test procedure from the packaging, materials and quality to the range of functions and handling.
To give you a quick overview, we work with a points system. The maximum possible number of points per area is 100 points. The final overall score is calculated from the average of all tested features, taking into account the respective weightings.

The first impression
The packaging and labelling
ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be ensured.
| Criterion | Remark | Points achieved* |
|---|---|---|
| Product protection | Carton is sturdy, product sufficiently protected | 100 points |
| Sustainability Packaging | With the exception of the plastic film, no unnecessary packaging waste was used and the item was packaged compactly | 85 points |
| Miscellaneous | High-quality packaging, also suitable as a gift | 100 points |
| Total | 95 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
The LEBENLANG electronic milk frother arrived in the typical Amazon box. The box was undamaged and easy to open thanks to the zip, without any additional tools. Inside the box was the electronic milk frother, wrapped in a plastic bag. The plastic bag might not have been necessary, but it protects the milk frother from dirt and scratches. In this case, the product was fully protected and the milk frother was therefore in perfect condition.
The packaging is partially recyclable. The plastic bag can be recycled if disposed of correctly, as can the Amazon cardboard box. The plastic bag is made of EPE-LD 04, low-density polyethylene. This polythene is not considered to be hazardous to health, but is harmful to the environment if disposed of incorrectly.
On the whole, the milk frother makes a very good impression.

The LEBENLANG electronic milk frother with four different milk processing functions has a capacity of 75 ml to 300 ml. The product dimensions are 20.7 x 17.7 x 13.7 cm with a weight of 970 grams. The mains cable has an overall length of 90 cm.
On a positive note, two wh isks are included. If a whisk is lost or damaged, a replacement is immediately at hand.
The milk frother feels very high quality, and the modern black and silver design also contributes to this. The stainless steel inner housing with non-stick coating rounds off this concept. This high-quality finish makes it a visual highlight in any kitchen or coffee corner.
This is what our practical test showed
Does the manufacturer keep its advertising promises?
ℹ️ Our practical test is the most relevant and therefore the most important. Here, the product has to undergo a wide range of criteria and tests. We check the functions and product promises of the test article.
| Criterion | Remark | Score achieved* |
|---|---|---|
| 1. warm, firm milk foam | A very firm milk foam even after a few minutes | 100 points |
| 2. warm, creamy milk foam | Perfect creaminess of the foam | 100 points |
| 3. warm milk without milk foam | the milk is heated to a very pleasant drinking temperature after just under 1:50 minutes of preparation time | 100 points |
| 4. cold milk foam | retains the previous temperature | 100 points |
| Cleaning & handling | effortless cleaning, unfortunately the whisk falls off very easily and could therefore fall into the drink when pouring | 95 points |
| Time information | Short preparation time | 100 points |
| Total | 99 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
The LEBENLANG electronic milk frother has four different milk processing functions. Cow’s milk, lactose-free milk and milk substitutes can be used. There are four programmes:
1. warm, firm milk foam
2. warm, creamy milk foam
3. heating the milk without milk foam
4. milk froth without heating the milk
All of the programmes deliver what they promise. The silicone lid fits tightly, which prevents the milk from splashing out.
There are two displays on the inner housing showing the maximum milk filling capacity. Depending on the milk processing variant, the milk frother is filled with max. 150 ml or max. 300 ml of milk. There is also a minimum capacity mark.
The inner housing of the milk frother is non-stick coated, which guarantees effortless cleaning as less milk residue remains in the milk frother. The very easy removal of the milk froth also contributes to this easy cleaning.
The programme duration is stated as 1-2 minutes, which we can confirm. In our practical test, we determined an average time of 1:50 minutes.
Price/performance ratio
and ratings from consumers
ℹ️ Finally, we look at how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also analyse consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.
| Criterion | Remark | Score achieved* |
|---|---|---|
| Price / performance ratio | Very good price/performance ratio | 95 points |
| Rating cut | 4.4 out of 5.0 on Amazon | 70 points |
| Total | 83 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers have given the product an average rating of 4.4 stars. The cleaning of the milk frother is often criticised. Some find it annoying that the electronic milk frother has to be rinsed by hand and that the opening for rinsing is too small. Due to the built-in electronics, this criticism is incomprehensible. We also cannot confirm the allegedly small opening. Many customers like the good quality of the milk foam and the various milk preparation functions. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the preparation modes deliver what they promise.
Prices of up to €75 are charged on the internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as € 32. The LEBENLANG milk frother currently has a price of €44.95 and is therefore in the mid-price segment. The price ratio is reasonable for the quality and scope of services that you get.
