The box of bags stays in the bottom of the shredder. When one gets full you pull it out close it up and pull another bag up out of the box. How easy is that?! You don't have to go hunting up a garbage bag to dump the shreds in. They could stand to be a tad taller to make it a little easier to tie up but I do fill mine as full as possible. 😏
These are convenient. I like the way the box is stowed in the bottom of the shredder. However I have used approx 6 bags so far & 2 of them have ripped. Not very convenient when you have all those little bitty pieces going everywhere. So I’m reserving my opinion to see if they perform better. At this point I would not recommend.
Bought to use the in-bin bag containment system for the shredder. That is very convenient and the bags tie easily and I have found them to hold the shredded material well without opening at the seam. That said the top of the bag tears very easily when being stretched over the top of the bin. With practice I only tear about every 3rd one if I watch where my nails are am VERY slow and gentle and make sure I stretch over one of the rounded corners. The old bags were thicker and not so flimsy. At this price point I may use another brand at reorder and not worry about the bag containment system in the bottom of the bin.
We have used standard clear plastic trash bags in our shredder and they always tear. They bags are the perfect size and thickness for our shredder. They never tear.
