Olivia: I bought this in April 2023 and by August 2023 (4 months), the press had metal flaking off into my espresso when I pressed down. Happened several times and Ill have to go with a different product. I'm sad because it worked so well until this happened.

Oompah Loompah: ok i should have read the description but i didnt so you get what you pay for etc, in this case its chrome plated MS. Ok it has a nice weight and it dose the job and as i ordered a "bargain" (with a wee bit of damage ie a ding on the edge and the plating a bit brocken up so it will rust etc one day....) i am ok with it. If i had read properly i doubt if I would have placed an oder. However for an SS tamper its double the cost or so. and my La Pavoni has a non standard basket this fits but is gappy and its a bit annoying. SO..... one day i might get a bit of SS machined to place on the end as the btm of the tamper unscrews so all may not be lost.....just the cost of a chunck of SS and some tool time somewhere....ohhh yes i might have well got the right thing first time.... live n learn. In summary its ok.... but factor in the postage etc not such a bargain. and they claim that they are having their goods counterfieted...!!! by who! or even whom....what is the world coming to when the manufactureres of such stuff are complaining about being ripped off by some "unscrupilous" people...probably some bad ppl in the UK in a sweat shop somewhere

XoniXoni: Bonjour,

A réception, la première impression est : le POIDS !
596 gramme sur la balance, compte tenu de ses petites dimensions, cela fait dense.
On pourrait penser qu'il contient une âme en plomb, or selon l'emballage il ne s'agirait que d'acier nickelé.

Quoi qu'il en soit, il est vivement déconseillé de le laisser tomber sur du carrelage ou sur les orteils !

Concernant son diamètre, mon pied à coulisse m'annonce 51,1 mm, ce qui un dixième de plus que l'annonce, mais on est dans les tolérances pour ce genre d'article.
A l'usage, il rentre parfaitement dans le porte filtre de ma Delonghi EC-685.

Sa finition nickelée peut retenir les traces de doigts, et s'avérer parfois glissante.

Notez que, comme dans le cas de ma Delonghi, il serait contre-productif de trop tasser la mouture de café avec un tamper / presse-café. En effet, ce modèle comme beaucoup d'autres possède des filtres pressurisés. Cela se remarque aisément par la présence d'un SEUL petit trou en sortie du filtre, alors qu'inversement de nombreux trous sont percés sur le haut. Cela aurait pour effet de créer plus facilement de la mousse.

Donc je...

Hr.Landwirt: Tamper pünktlich angekommen angekommen, auf der Packung steht 600gramm, mal nachgewogen: 562g.
Naja, aber kann man für 10e Präzision erwarten?
Die 38g sind mir eigentlich eh wurscht.
In der Beschreibung auf amazon steht Edelstahl, auf der Verpackung Stahl/Eisen. Mir Wurscht aus wasses nun ist aber tut das not mit der Verwirrung?
Egal, weitergehts.
Die Griffseite passt bei meiner Maschine perfekt in die verengung vom einersieb, das hatte ich mir erhofft, die Tamper-Seite passt nicht (La Pavoni mit 60mm Brühgruppe).
Also Nachgemessen, Tamper hat 51mm Durchmesser, an dem liegts also nicht.
Besser den nen halben mm kleiner geschliffen als nen 49er der dann viel zu klein is.
Bandschleifer an, Tamper drauf, Überraschung, was auch immer da so chromartig blinkte war ratzfatz weg und mir blinkte Kupfer entgegen, is das Ding aus Kupfer? Mir auch recht, is ja eh grad trendy und Grünspangefährdete Lagerung kann ich bei dem Teil auch ausschließen.
Also Test, ins Einersieb passts schon fast, ins 2er lange nicht, Präzision liebe Italiener? Naja dem Geschmack tuts keinen Abbruch und der Tamper kann da nix für, also weiterschleifen.
Es wird wieder silbern,...

numnuts777: This an excellent product, unfortunately the one I received had a small defect in the centre of the base, corrosion/cracking or perhaps a tooling fault. The Company were very polite and courteous. I tried to take a photo of the fault but because of the reflective surface the defect was masked by reflection. They asked me to return it and the packaging it came in but they provided no address to do this.
I decided because the product was not that expensive I would just keep it as I believe it came from Hong Kong/USA? and waited some time to receive it in the first place. The product is an excellent tamper quite heavy and great for tamping the coffee. Had it not been for the defect in the base I would have given this 5*. Tiny Deal need to bring to the manufacturers attention to quality inspection of their products.

Lorne Kates: I have a Cuisinart EM-100, which uses 51mm porta-filters. This tamper fits it absolutely perfectly with pretty much NO extra space. It's great for tamping. This thing literally weighs a pound, so it has heft. The handle is nicely sculpted and easy to hold on to. Easy to get a grip and lay down 50lbs of pressure. Extremely happy with it.

The only thing that would make it better would be a rubberized grip, but I haven't had any issues with the grip, it's easy to hold on to. Shipping to Canada did take a couple weeks over the holidays, but your shipping times may vary. Just be aware if you need it for your espresso party tomorrow. =)
