Oryx Vibes Espresso Tamping Station & Knock Box Black

I ordered this knock box to complement my Krups countertop espresso machine, and when I unpacked it I found it took up almost the same amount of space on my counter as my espresso machine does! It may be a good choice if you've got a larger amount of space but it's not ideal for a smaller kitchen. I also haven't found a way to balance my portafilter in the slot easily - the cutout fits the size and height, but the weight of the handle makes it hard to balance and it's honestly much easier to fill and tamp just sitting on my counter without this box. With the espresso machine I have I don't feel like it's worth the space it takes up, but I'm sure it works much better with other machines and it would be a nice way to keep my tools organized if it was a better fit. It's sturdy and the surfaces are easy to wipe clean.
