Customer Reviews

Huge improvement over my previous shredder
This unit does a great job! My old shredder was very slow and I had to open all junk mail because my old shredder would jam when I tried to feed in whole letters with envelopes, especially if they contained plastic cards such as credit cards. This new unit has no problems with such things. Shredding my junk mail with this unit takes far less time than with the old unit!

The only impovement I would like to see is to make the slot slightly wider so all mail can be fed in sideways. Right now a lot of my junk mail is about 1/2 inch too long and must be fed in lenghtwise. If the slot had been 1/2 inch wider I would have given this product five stars rather than four.

A Workhorse
This shredder is well worth the money. It is fast, powerful, and convenient to use. The only minor drawback is the challenge in changing the bag without having to vacuum out the shredded paper pieces in the slide-out wastebasket compartment. My wife and I just use the dustbuster, since the problem is nearly unavoidable. Even so, we are both very happy with this shredder.

Excellent Shredder for the price
This shredder is built rock solid and will shred anything. I have been through a few shredders before buying this one and thought I would take the plunge and get a larger shredder. Easily shreds documents, cards, cds - great to keep you personal info - well personal. It will easily shred thicker paper and a small stack of documents with ease. I recently shredded a large pile of old documents no longer needed and the unit did not overheat.

Keep in mind - this is a big shredder - but functions very well and is easy to maintain and clean the shredding mechanism when needed. Also looks cool.
