Small, works with (some) induction units, just what I needed.
Size: 6.8oz/200ml Silver
It's small and the good thing about it is that it works with my induction (Nuwave Flex Precision, 1,300W.) Not perfectly, but will work. It doesn't work with my larger Duxtop (9600LS/BT-200DZ, 1,800W) because it is looking for more metal to sense before it can trigger the induction function. So, if you have a smaller induction unit it might work. If not, get a CozyKit 5.5" induction diffuser (on Amazon) and heat it up on that via induction. That diffuser should work on any induction unit. I guess we can't do links anymore even if on Amazon?? from attempting to post other reviews, so this is the text discr for the diffuser on Amazon, it's hard to find the smaller one otherwise: (Heat Diffuser Stainless Steel Induction Adapter Plate Removable Handle Coffee Milk Cookware Induction Hob Heat Cooking Diffuser for Electric Stove 5.5inch)

Well-Made and Handy for Small Drinks
Size: 6.8oz/200ml Silver
This HULISEN milk frothing pitcher is well made and feels sturdy in hand. The stainless steel finish looks nice and it pours smoothly, which helps when frothing or steaming milk. The 6.8oz size is perfect for single drinks, though it may feel small if you make multiple cups at once. Overall, it does the job well and is a useful addition to a home coffee setup.

Nice shape, highly polished, 200ml, 5+ stars.
Size: 6.8oz/200ml Silver
Very nice, highly polished with the feel of quality for the price. I'm very much an amateur barista. A trip to Italy inspired me to buy an espresso machine. I gained a whole new respect for coffee in Europe. The pitcher with my machine was too big to copy the Euro style cafe. Small quantities of milk were too shallow to froth properly even when tilting. The barista I watched in Italy was using a small pitcher so I decided to buy the 200ml version. It's a perfect size allowing a small amount of milk to be deep enough to froth. I brought back some roasted Italian coffee beans back to USA and wow! I'm very much a beginner but having fun.
