Price

It was about a buck cheaper to go through amazon, but this is a small, light-weight part that could simply be put in an envelop... Read More
Still, paying $10 is a whole lot cheaper than having to buy a new espresso machine.
My only complaint would be the cost.
Shipping
Arrived a couple of days early, which was much appreciated as i need my morning latte!
Arrived as promised and the part fitted as expected.
Checked on amazon and found the part with same day delivery available; crisis averted.
Shipping was very quick, shipped out same day.
Packaging/appearance
This is clearly a case of good things coming in small packages.
The portafilter doesn’t sit as snugly as with original gasket and when packet tightly with coffee it will still leak a small amount.
Competitiveness
It is being used on a bodum espresso machine which apparently shared some of the parts with the breville.
