Why would one want or need a tamper

Espresso needs to be packed firmly in the portafilter basket and a tamper is great for this because it fits nicely inside the portafilter. When I got my espresso machine, I forgot to buy a tamper too and I was left trying to tamp the espresso puck with other objects, but a tamper does this much more evenly than trying to use a makeshift tamper. Tamping is one of the necessary steps to great espresso shots!

What are the diameters of the top and the bottom?

It is cheap. It just works. I put calibers on mine yesterday and got 50.3 mm and 55.7 mm. It is cheap. Don't expect precision for 6 usd.

This item says it's dishwasher safe, but it came out dull and tarnished. Is there a way I can polish it and prevent that from happening in the future?

It is aluminum, which doesn't do well in the dishwasher. Polish it up best you can, try a green scotch brite, and don't put it in the dishwasher again. I just wipe mine off with a paper towel or cloth and that's enough . It doesn't really require that much washing.

To press the coffee in the espresso coffee holder. Pressing the coffee helps increase the pressure running through the coffee into the carafe.

Al tener dos medidas, sirve para qualquier cafetera expresso. Un poco pesado, ya que no es de metal no de plástico,. No le doy 5 estrellas por su acabado cromado, ya que hay que limpiarlo con un trapo con agua caliente y mucho cuidado sino se desprende el cromado. Ni se os scurra ponerlo en el lavavajillas sino quereis destozarlo.

Does its job well, i.e. tamping espresso. The two sides make it useful for differently sized puck holders. Light, simple, and durable. Not fancy, but hard to go wrong.
