I mean, I still want one just to try it out, but to be honest I make most of my espresso using my Handpresso these days without turning the big machine on. It has a tiny plastic grounds basket and I use the squeezy honey bottle! (its lid was about the right size) to tamp it because I'm too tight to buy one of these (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ultra-Lightweight-Coffee-Tamper-set-Handpresso-Minipresso-Staresso-V-2-CreaMOD/192496341138)

I still tap the portafilter... It just works...
I'd been doing the grind, declump with cocktail stick then tamp thing for a while with very mixed results... The gadget gives me the same result every time... Must be Italian magic...
