I really love this basket. It's very well constructed, with clean, uniform holes throughout, and the quality is noticeably better than the cheaper basket I was using previously, and amazing quality at this price point. I also like the logo and the box it came in -- I really appreciate when effort is put into the package design which just makes you feel good about the product from the start.
The biggest improvement for me has been consistency. I had been dealing with spraying during extraction with my old basket, but I've been able to brew consistently with this one without that problem. The more even hole pattern seems to make a noticeable difference.
For reference, I'm able to fit about 17.5g of coffee in the basket when using a 0.8mm-thick puck screen, so keep that in mind if you're using a puck screen as part of your setup. And it fits my 54mm aftermarket bottomless portafilter no problem.
Overall, this is a great upgrade for anyone looking for a well-made espresso basket that can help produce more consistent shots.

This basket from Creamore makes for one mean espresso! The precision holes are all uniform and equally spaced. Fits perfectly in my Normcore 54mm portafilter. I used this with 17g of fresh ground coffee beans in my BBP, which made for a wonderful cup of coffee with the perfect amount of crema. At just under $13 at time of writing, this basket is a great value compared to other more popular baskets. I can't imagine that spending almost twice as much for the other brand will result in coffee that tastes twice as good.

Creamore 54mm single wall non-Pressurized double cup basket that fits my bottomless portafilter very well. Nice tight, but not too tight fit onto the portafilter holder. No issues placing the portafilter onto the group head on my Breville Barista Express. This 54mm basket is fully compatible. The basket produced good pressure, a bit higher than OEM basket. The espresso volume is a bit lower and the extraction time longer. The puck was nice and dry and knocked out easily. Overall taste was pleasant, but I feel lesser crema and shorter shots.
As with any change in component, especially a basket, there's a few adjustments I need to make to optimize the pull. For this new basket, I'd recalibrate by increasing grind size a bit and reduce volume to 18gr. That should help with lower pressure and provide more extraction extraction and more crema. It's just a minor change to dial in the difference in the drill patterns in the new Creamore basket.

This double cup basket by Creamore fits my generic 54 mm bottomless portafilter, which in turn fits my Breville Barista Express. Compared to my generic basket which came with my generic portafilter the holes in the bottom are a little finer.
I ground my 18 g of my 2 week old coffee at a 2 grind setting and manually pulled a 36 g shot, which is my standard recipe. I also used a puck screen to keep my espresso clean. It took about 35 seconds to extract, compared to my generic basket which takes 25-30 seconds. It was very easy to remove the puck with just a gentle knock.
The flavor produced however, was good, albeit a little bitter. I'm going to increase the grind size for my next shot. The crema is a bit better than what I was getting with my generic basket, most likely due to the slower extraction and the fine holes.
Honestly I would probably only give this 4.5 out of 5 stars. The product does produce a stronger crema, although it is only marginally better than a generic basket. However I will round it up to 5 in fairness.

This is my third Creamore cup basket and I'm impressed with each of them. The company uses the word "precision" and it isn't an exaggeration. Pic 1 shows the uniformity of the holes and if my camera phone were better it would show that the holes are round and clear. Pic 2 shows the logo in the basket which makes it easier to locate. Pics 3, 4, and 5 show the information that is added to the side of the cup basket which helps in a) knowing you have the correct basket and b) helpful info for brewing. It fits perfectly with the portafilter and snugs tightly with the espresso machine, no leaks or spewing coffee. The razor/leveler fit as it should and made easy work of leveling the coffee powder. It produces honey colored coffee and crema that adds to the flavor. I don't know how they can make them so inexpensively but I'm glad that they do. I recommend them, including this one.

This precision filter basket is a great upgrade for anyone using compatible 54mm espresso machines. The stainless steel construction feels durable, and the precision hole pattern helps produce a smooth, even extraction with a rich layer of natural crema when paired with freshly ground coffee.
The basket fit my portafilter perfectly, and I appreciated that it matched the original dimensions without any modifications. It's easy to clean, dishwasher-safe, and feels like a high-quality replacement that's built to last.
Overall, this is a well-made accessory that delivers consistent performance and gives you more control over your espresso. If you enjoy dialing in your grind and getting the most from your coffee beans, this basket is an excellent addition to your setup.

I got this to replace a basket that frequently sprayed everywhere on my breville bambino 54mm espresso machine. This basket works great. The holes are all precise and uniform. The finish is good and all the edges are nicely rounded so there's no risk of cutting yourself on a sharp edge like cheaper options. There's a nice design of the creamore logo etched or screened onto it. This is a non pressurized double basket. I can easily fit 20g of ground coffee in mine. I use it with a bottomless portafilter, it is not meant for a pressurized gasket using portafilter. Super happy with it and would gladly buy again. Was cheaper than buying a full new portafilter and I have more faith in the quality of this basket even if I bought an entire new combo from someone else.

This is a very well-made, precision, non-pressurized single-wall espresso brewing cup at a decent price. It fits 54mm portafilters and bottomless portafilters and clearly targeting the Breville family of 54mm espresso machines. The basket/cup has the required taper for a perfect fit. For a 54mm brewing cup you need to use a 53.3mm tamper.
I have been on a quest to find a double-cup basket that can hold up to 22g of grinds. The double-wall cups hold less coffee because of the two walls with a pressure area between them. The other advantage of this cap is that the hot water will flow straight through the coffee puck to yield richer, fuller flavor and superior crema. It works best in a bottomless portafilter.
There are 648 evenly distributed 0.3mm holes that spread water across the whole puck for balanced extraction., Most of the baskets that come with espresso machines have few, larger holes than can create unwanted “channeling” in the puck. It us fabricated from robust 304 stainless steel that resists rust & corrosion and easily washes clean.
The $12.99 price is quite reasonable for such a high-quality, precision-machined brew basket.
