we spent the weekend sanding with it. It just keeps going and going and doesn't overheat. However, give him space as he warms up. You have to find out how much he likes receiving paper. Manuscripts, scripts, or other equally sized pages work great. Really does 100 sheets at once, but not all at once. Not that it's five times faster than a 25-sheet shredder. But it gets done faster because you can LOAD 100 sheets at a time. So a 25-sheet shredder can run faster if you load more sheets as quickly as possible. But you won't. If you return here, you will destroy 100 leaves. If you go back to shredding 25 sheets, you've shredded 25 sheets. This one is faster. It turns on and rarely stops before all the leaves have been shredded. When it stops, it doesn't warn you, it just stops. Because it's VERY quiet, you might not realize it's stopped. But if you have a lot of leaves of the same size, this rarely stops. I have Swingline bags and am very glad I did. It's much easier to remove the bag, tie it up, and put it in a new bag than it is to carry the container to a large trash can. Still makes a bit of a mess, but any shredder will do. It works quietly because it doesn't destroy many sheets at once. But he keeps sucking them in and grinding them up so the turtle defeats the rabbit. You can insert multiple sheets through the slot on the top and it will start and shred automatically. Slow. And you can't insert very many sheets this way. Therefore, it is best suited for jobs that require large amounts of the same size paper to be shredded into tiny transverse pieces. I had all 8.5"x11". 12-9-14 - update - a year later it still works like new. I'm still on my first order of the bags and glad I have them. Never needed grinding oil. I regret a little that I bought the oil. Update 1-30-16: About a year we have 300 million for office. We mainly feed this sheet 8.5x11. He never had a problem. It just works. I like the wheels and the larger size. The Model 300M rollers will not dry out or become too dusty to pull paper. On the contrary, I feed 100x at home a bunch of non-standard things from the mail, as well as drafts from the printer. With anything other than printer paper, she often chokes because she pulls too hard. Or works but doesn't pull paper. Folding the paper doesn't help. I gently wipe the rollers with a damp paper towel, but that only helps sometimes. The smoother the paper, the less likely it is to tug. It can happen that the rollers have a lifespan of two years. Maybe the design doesn't scale from 300M to 100X like it should. Right now I've changed the stars from 5 to 3 because 100X frustrates me too often.
