Revainrating 1 out of 5

Works great but small basket

I wish I could give it 4.5 stars - that would be the most accurate. The product is exactly as described and works very well. However, I have a few pointers for potential buyers: Good1. It's fast. By feeding 3-6 sheets at a time, I destroyed an entire box of bank statements in about 20 minutes.2. It didn't overheat at all. I repeated the above two more times, letting it sit for about 5 minutes each time I emptied the bucket and it never overheated. It's quieter than my previous shredder (admired by my less expensive) shredder.4. The drawer is easy to empty. Not very good 1. The drawer is small. I can fill it up with about 15-20 minutes of continuous grinding.2. There is no "bin full" indicator. Yes, there is a window on the container, but it's hard to see from the chair when looking at it. Not critical as you can always pull out the bin to check, but a minor inconvenience.3. Some scraps in the back end don't make it into the bin and fall to the ground, but again, they're easy to tip into a garbage bag or remove. 4. It does not "shred" CDs, but cuts them into 3 equal parts. However, they are still destroyed. Despite these minor inconveniences, I am very happy with this shredder and would buy it again or recommend it. I received this product because I paid for it. Unfortunately nobody compensates me for my reviews.
