51mm Coffee Tamper, Espresso Daul Spring Loaded Tamper with Ripple Base, Coffee Hand Tampers fit 51mm Portafilter, Self Leveling Espresso Machine Tampers for Barista,T5999-OS

It functions perfectly. The 51mm compacting head fits nicely into the 51mm porta - there is no significant grind bypassing the head during press, the sliding flange improves alignment so the grind is compacted evenly in the porta and the spring load seems consistent - I can't detect softening of the spring.Build quality and finish are excellent - no sharp edges, the coating/anodizing has no wear after 2-mths daily use.I will buy this again if needed, it's definitely improved my espresso consistency.

Build quality is superb. Its weight is heavy but in a good way. Works great. Makes tamping level so much easier. Fits my portable perfect. Well worth the purchase

Pros: nice materials, feels nice, good packaging, fair price. Cons: comes undone, annoying to put back together. Only buy if you can’t afford the $40 one or the one above that. This item is attached in two different areas. One screw in the inside of the barrel connected to the base and the inside of the handle at the top. The handle is very easy to reconnect. The problem is when the bottom disconnects. There is a loose screw sitting in the barrel that allows it to go up and down. It is extremely annoying trying to line up the screw while compressing to tamper the whole time. Then you have to rotate it at the same time to reconnect a barrel that sits inside the handle to the loose screw. It got to the point where i just ordered a different on all together. Plus it was past return date which was nice.

super heavy duty and works great. beats the plastic one that came with my espresso machine by a mile.

This espresso tamp works well and gets the job done for me every morning so I can enjoy my coffee. It’s easy to clean and wipe off with paper towel. The size is perfect especially for this price!

Had this for many months now & it tampers like a PRO!!

I loved it for a couple of months, but only lasted for that, a couple of months.It broke internally there's a screw that once its loose you cannot access it again.So mine just completely broke and know is paper weight.That's just sad

Nice tamper but kinda loose in the handle. I tightened everything up and it still is a little loose. I think a 58.5 would be a better fit. The grounds get caught along the wall with this one. I love MHW3 products and this goes well with my other accessories. Simple and easy to use with good weight.
