Gaggia Stainless Steel Shower Holder Diffuser

When the dispersion plate arrived, out of the plastic bag there were already many nicks on the edge. I had to pull out my diamond sharpening plate to smooth out the burrs caused by the nicks. It's mostly cosmetic but a new product, an expensive one for what it is, shouldn't require fix up efforts before it can be put in use.

Replaced the OG aluminum block which had started to decay. Shots are hotter and better tasting than ever

I purchased this to replace my old alloy version. I am overall very pleased. It’s a well machine piece of kit, and installation was a breeze. Retains heat very well! Great for non PID users.

I have a current model of Gaggia Classic Pro, but it came with an aluminum shower holder diffuser, which has rusted. When this replacement arrived, I had some reservations that it was a Gaggia branded part - there is no indication on packaging or on the hardware itself, that it is. Honestly, I still don't know, but it does fit perfectly, and is an upgrade over the aluminum original in terms of heat retention. It works exactly as it should, and I feel that it may even distribute the water a little better than the original (could be imagining that). I'm happy with this replacement.
