Negative Positive
Title: Cheap in cost and construction
Review: I'm very surprised in the number of positive reviews for this item. When I received it, I was disappointed in the light weight of the tamper. I want a tamper with some backbone that will stay put as I tamp the grind. It also has an obviously plated surface, which concerns me. After a few months of weekend use, I now see small flakes of the plating coming off. Who knows what shape it would be in if I had washed it in the dishwasher (see other reviews).SO...so long, cheap tamper. I'm going for one that is solid stainless steel with no potentially lead-ladened plating and has a more comfortable grip. This one is barely tolerable.If you spent good money on an espresso machine, don't cheap out on the tamper. You'll be disappointed in this one.
