This shredder has been wonderful. This was a purchase to replace a different brand shredder that we had for less than a year before it quit. It handles a good amount of paper at a time and is very quiet which is great for the office.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs
Cons: wish waste basket was set up a little different, wish it was a micro cut
I would recommend this to a friend!

We had a Fellowes Powershred prior to this one. The only reason we had to purchase a new machine was because the roof leaked at the office and filled the shredder up with water. Very pleased with this product and the last one we had. Would not have bought a new one if not for the other one filling up with water. Excellent machine and awesome purchase for the price and durability of product. Highly recommend this product to anyone who need a high powered cross cut shredder!

Our school purchased this shredder after our old one stopped working. We wanted one that wasn't as noisy as the old one and that would shred more sheets at one time. This shredder is very quite and it doesn't get hot very fast, so you can shred longer. I do, however, wish that the wheels had locks so that it didn't move around as easy and that the bin had a tighter closure, it seems to vibrate open sometimes. It also seems to not level out the shredded paper you still have to push it down or empty it before it is completely full.

The new shredder is quieter. The disposal bin is large and doesn't fit our regular kitchen size trash bags like the old shredder. My only complaint is when shredding 1 or 2 sheets; the paper won't feed into the shredder. You have to shred 4 or more for it to feed into the shredder.
What an appetite! Gobbles paper like the cookie monster eats cookies. REALLY beats using the incinerator for destroying sensitive records. The safe thickness indicator is also a time saver by eliminating Jam-ups.
