Pros & Cons
Pros
Its build quality is absolutely superb. It is sturdy and heavy. The quality is on par with excellent.
This distributor and tamper is the game changer. This basically saves coffee, as it smooths it before fully tamping.

Both ends are adjustable. Both sides are extendable and lock with the center rings.
Cons
Product works great, but unfortunately the paint began chipping with light use after a month. The tamper is not 51mm across, so the metal part of the tamper cannot reach down to press the coffee grinds firmly.
Highlights
Quality
Works great feels great and looks great
Weight is nicely heavy 441g and feels good in the hands
Wiping a finger across the portafilter before tamping results in both coffee loss and removes coffee before the lumps are broken up
This basically saves coffee as it smooths it before fully tamping
Price
While it’s not perfect given the shortcomings listed above the price is decent and it’s probably good enough for most people hence 4 stars
Great value and definitely evenly disperses the espresso much better for an awesome cup of espresso

Im still a bit of a coffee novice and am not that fastidious in my technique so take my comments with a grain of salty coffee grind

Mainly this evens out coffee grounds within the portafilter before tamping the coffee
