Coffee Tamper Espresso Coffee Press 51mm / 2" (Coffee Tamper)

It is not the claimed stainless steel, rather a highly magnetic material, iron , with a "chrome" plating.Other than the deceptive advertising, it is functional/weight 20.4 oz

Everything I could want from this transaction: Item is solid, heavy, correctly sized, good surface finish and shipped quickly.

Works great has good weight and affordable

This Tamper comes well packed in a close fitting cardboard and plastic tub and has a black fabric tie string bag to keep it clean and protected from knocks. That could be important as the material is stated on the box as "Steel Chromed" and there is no mention of Stainless Steel. It certainly looks and feels like chrome plated mild steel so time and use will tell.It has a nice flat tamping surface 50mm diameter with a 0.5mm edge chamfer giving the overall diameter of 51mm as described. It weighs 587 grams so it's close to the product description although the box states 621 grams - not a big issue and the weight is good enough to provide consistent pressure to flatten and compress the coffee in the holder without extra manual pressure. I use it daily with my De Longhi Dedica and it's a great improvement on the plastic tamper provided by De Longhi.

Bought this to replace the plastic tamper that came from my De'Longhi Dedica Espresso maker, and it fits perfectly.

Very impressed with this, has a calibrated one with a spring that was double the price but was a piece of junk compared to this. Nicely weighted, this is a pleasure to use daily. Buy one!

Does not quite completely tightly fit the interior of my Bialetti grounds holder, but close enough for 95% compaction

Well made does the job brilliantly.
