WDT tool, Espresso Distribution tools, 10 x 0.35mm 304 Stainless Steel Needles Installed with 10 Extra needles for Espresso Stirrer Replacement, Aluminum Alloy Handle with Stand (Matte Brown)

This is a really good product. I stopped leaving reviews - too time consuming. Yet I feel compelled to compliment this coffee distribution/de-clumping tool. I am not receiving any benefit other than being satisfied with this item. Delivered quickly. Great protective packaging-impressive. The entire base with top sits attractively and unobtrusively on the counter by my espresso machine. The base is heavy and stable. The top which contains the pins for distributing the coffee, fits easily and quickly into the base after each use. The pins and pattern of the pins make the distribution/de-clumping quick and easy. At first, I thought the pins might be too fine (too small gauge) but they work great. I had been using a wood skewer (for grilling) by sharpening one end with a knife into a point and then stirring the grounds. This tool works faster and more efficiently and, distributes more evenly than my home-made tool.The only alternative I considered was one reviewer’s wry suggestion to just push some sewing needles into a cork for the distribution tool. That would work just fine but, it wouldn’t look so good on the counter or complement my top quality espresso machine, grinder, tamper, scale, etc. Well worth the price.

Nicely weighted and distributes the grounds well.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Good product, does the job!

The product does what it is supposed to which is WDT.The stability of needle holder is good compared to other WDT tools because the needles are held at two points, meaning they don't wobble around annoyingly.The needles came in 0.34mm caliper reading, which is good. I bought some WDT tools before they say "0.35mm" but actually 0.5mm....this one is actually 0.35mm which is good.The base bottom feels really cheap. In fact I hate it so much I wanted to use my old WDT base instead but it doesn't center well in it. The bottom is basically no metal hollow bottom held by foam. Admittedly I won't be feeling the bottom of my WDT base on a daily basis, but skimping on this part bothers me.I thought about decreasing rating because of the cheap bottom, but overall I am impressed with the WDT performance and also the stability of the retainer design of the WDT device itself so 4 stars.

Love this dense little thing. Works great for our sober lounges little caffine station. It's very heavy and feels great in the hand. The espresso color is gorgeous too.

Well built, and you can customize the amount/position of the needles. I'm happy.

Works great! Will purchase again if I need too.

I love this product!!! Very easy to use and store.
