Review on 🚬 MM 16941 Powermatic Mini Hand Tamping Machine - Cigarette Tamping Device - Plastic, Black - 10 x 10 x 5 cm by Veronica Johnson

So I wrote an initial review on this product when I received it a few months ago and couldn't say enough good things about it. Well I still love it and still think it's the best value for money out there. There was just one little thing that was giving me a headache that's easy to fix, so I thought I'd share it with you all. First let me say this car is great. It works as well or even better than other machines I've gotten for 2-3x the price. Buy it, you won't regret it. However, as time went on, one thing came up that drove me crazy. When you snap the handset into place, a small piece of plastic slides out the side of the device to hold the handset in place. Then when you inject the tobacco there is a little button on the slider that you press when you push it up and it releases. However, the machine is also designed for size 100 smoke. So if you're scrolling through the full flavors, you probably won't get the slider far enough to click the button. That doesn't matter at first. The pen is smooth enough that your smoke will just slide out when you're done. However, there is a tiny piece of rubber at the end of that little plastic stick that is meant to catch the smoke coming from the side. This piece of rubber will become very sticky over time, causing it to stick too well. As a result, 75% of your cigarettes will end up with these tiny cracks on the ends. Well, even that's not really a deal breaker for me, as it's a very small gap that doesn't really affect your cigarettes, if at all. But it still drove me crazy, so I had to find a solution. What I did was take a small eyeglass screwdriver and poke this little piece of rubber out. It's stuck in there like a little rubber peg in a hole, so you have to pry a little to get it out. However, once I pulled it out there, there were no more problems with tears. The plastic stick itself has just enough grip to hold the smoke in place, but not so much that your smoke doesn't end up sliding off cleanly. It's a really simple solution to a relatively small problem, but in my case I found the machine a lot more fun to use. I hope this helps someone. Thank you for reading!
