Title: Gets the job done, looks cool
Review: The tamper is of a different size on each side. The smaller side fits just right into my Breville 800ESXL. It's definitely an upgrade from the plastic one included with the machine (which is not even a separate piece; it's the back of the dosifier spoon).Some reviewers claim it's cheap and "you get what you pay for". I can't tell about more expensive tampers; this is the first actual tamper I own (after 10 years and 3 machines pulling espressos at home) and though I can tell some other models look more "fine/expensive", this one fits well in my portafilter and looks cool next to the all stainless steel setup. I was just going to buy the BCG450XL Conical Burr Grinder, but Amazon "suggested" the tamper, and I fell for it. I'm glad I did.
