This product has many fantastic reviews. It is a bit expensive, but takes all of the work out of making nut milk. I made two jugs of milk (12 cups) in about 20 minutes. The clean-up is simple. And best. I have the nut pulp to add to my breakfast shake. Love it.

I've made around ten jars of milk so far and I'm in love. It's extraordinarily simple to use, and the result is delicious and far healthier than most options at the store.
Pros:
- Happiness is pressing the little cow button.
- Simple and quick to use.
- Easy to clean, even if the basket is a drippy mess.
- You really only need a few ingredients to get tasty results.
- Eliminates tons of waste from buying milk at retail.
Cons:
- It's a big monetary investment up front.
- It takes up a decent amount of space.

One of the best purchases I’ve made. I bought mine about three years ago and use it every day. Makes enough milk for two latte’s and two smoothies. The almonds from almond cow are the best ones I’ve used. I do soak overnight which helps. If you’re thinking of purchasing, it’s a great investment, hands down.

I hesitated to buy yet another kitchen appliance...well I am elated that I did! I love our new Almond Cow, making almond and cashew milk has never been easier. I even took the pulp and mixed in cacao and peanut butter powder with honey and made granola. Unfortunately, there are so many chemicals in store bought almond milk. My wife feels like bloating is no longer an issue with the homemade almond milk. I recommend the Almond Cow highly! You will not be disappointed.
