Highlights
Quality
Brought blind for a birthday present the recipient is very impressed with the quality
A real quality product looks great too
Bought it for the bialetti moka express induction
It makes a big difference to the plastic one supplied with the machine
Competitiveness
I use this with my gaggia classic and it feels very sturdy
Great tamper to go with my gaggia classic
Definitely 58mm on the button so if you are going for competition quality look for a slight oversized like 58
I have bought a second gaggia classic for use in my apartment in spain and wanted a decent tamper

After using the plastic tamper that came with my gaggia machine i could never get consistent results

Although the technical specifications say it is 57mm it is 58mm which it has engraved on the top next to the brand name

My only disappointment is the motta etching on the base is barely visible

I recently purchased the rancilio silvia which comes supplied with a plastic tamper which is enough to get you started but it really is awful and has to be replaced asap

Nicely engraved with the motta logo on the base which adds a touch of class to it rather than a plain metal base

The top can unscrew so you can wash the base if it gets too dirty but i find it doesnt need cleaning as it barely picks up any grounds
