<p>Similar to what <a href="https://coffee.stackexchange.com/a/3385/1702">Ecnerwal</a> wrote, a stovetop steamer is probably best for you.</p>

<p>Check out the <a href="https://prima-coffee.com/equipment/bellman/50ss" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Bellman 50ss stovetop steamer</a> which is available for $89. It is simple to use, with low maintenance and can produce good steaming power which can create decent microfoam. It has a steaming wand with a valve you can turn to release the steam giving you the control over how you would like to steam your milk similar to espresso machines.</p>

<p>You will not be able to find anything that is standalone that works like the steaming wand on an espresso machine that is cheaper than the Dualit Cino unfortunately.</p>

<p>I'm looking for a stand alone steam wand like the <a href="https://www.dualit.com/products/cino" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Dualit Cino</a> .
Do such machines exist nowadays? </p>

<p>Ps. The Dulit Cino doesn't seem to be available in the US and is a bit expensive for me. </p>
