I ordered and received the tamper but when it arrived the packaging was mangled.  When I took the tamper out, it has a small defect from whatever mangled the package. I was going to send back but didn't want to take the time, quite honestly. It will serve its purpose.  Down the road, though,  the round base that sits at about 3 inches from the end of the handle may separate from the handle but for the price I will just reorder another one if necessary.  Love the machine!
