I bought this to replace a larger model. I like that it is significantly smaller and I don't need to lift the motor out to empty the bin...the bin slides out with the motor remaining in place. That was a huge selling feature for me as it was heavy and awkward. I was also pleasantly surprised that the cover slides closed ... eliminating the ugly blades and making it safer when the Grands are around. I am exceptionally pleased with the features and it is also quieter and does the job! Highly recommend if you are not shredding too many every day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this shredder has been very efficient at what it's supposed to do - shred. It's much heavier than I expected. I anticipate it won't tip over like my much lighter (and older) unit would if it was bumped. It's as much more quiet than I expected. I used this to shred packing paper from the boxes that arrive so I can add it to my compost and it did wonderfully! It ran for close to 10 minutes and didn't feel the least bit warm to the touch. I did have to manually hold down the advance button a few times to keep the feed going. I don't anticipate I'll have as large of a batch next time. I appreciate there cover that closes to hide the insertion feed. Since this is going to see primarily home office and personal use it a bonus that little fingers won't get caught as easily.
