Why complain? I see no reason.

I put about 40 pounds of paper through this machine. No freezing, no overheating. Quiet enough to watch TV while grinding. I've read complaints about slowness, I think it's probably a trade-off between speed and noise. I never wanted it to be faster. The size is ideal for a small business or household catching up on years of document archiving work. The machine stops when the paper level in the tray becomes high. It appears to be an optical detector that often triggers long before it causes the

Pros
  • Inspires confidence

  • Not everything fits

HSM shredstar X12 AWFUL

The only bonus with this product is the price. Although it was returned to Revain 24 hours after receiving it and trying it out, it really should go to landfill. The shredder handles trash so badly that it leaves a mess on the floor every time you open it. And the "Basket Full" sensor forces you to open it before it's even half full. You can't put a plastic trash bag in it because the sensor will react to it, forcing you to empty the trash can by hand over and over again, creating even moreโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • I have no dislikes for this, everything is fine

I've researched these things for a long time. I have had and worn 4 different models ranging from $40 to $200. This one was even more expensive, but I was drawn to the promise of 'continuous service'. Most inexpensive models have an electric motor that turns off when empty. -heats. That means you have to wait an hour or more for the grinder to cool down before you can use it again. This grinder does not overheat. In fact, he worked continuously for three hours at exactly the same rate. The badโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • So far so good

Both my parents and I have one.

My parents first bought one to replace an old $80-$100 grinder that overheated when they hit something substantial. You are very happy with it. This chopper replaced an old Royal that was about 8 years old. So I'm very happy to have a shredder that won't snag on a sheet of paper as it's 50% shredder. What struck me about this grinder: Advantages: - It is very quiet. Haven't tried shredding CDs or credit cards yet, but it still chews paper at a much lower noise level than my old shredder. Itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Functionality

I bought some old black models and was very happy with them so I went and bought a new white version. Unfortunately, in my opinion, these white devices are not as good as their black predecessors. They still appear to be designed for continuous paper shredding, which is a huge plus. Too many other grinders run for X minutes and then let the grinder cool for Y minutes. The CD/credit card shredder has a limited lifespan, but for almost everyone this shouldn't be a problem as they get a new credit

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • damaged

The STUPID instructions for this paper shredder!

I can't say much about this shredder yet as I've just received it and will update my review when I use it. What I can say is that there is the MOST IDIOTIC "instruction" regarding the CD/DVD/CREDIT CARD container. At first glance, you won't notice that this separate little container can hang directly under the CD slot on the large wastepaper basket flap. I hope you can see from the photo that the place to hang the basket is not obvious and it seems that if you tried to hang it on the door itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Minor issues

workhorse! to other office equipment

Two words: workaholic! It's not for your random two or three hands. This is not for some small offices. But not to compete with a large shredding company. When you or your co-workers grind enough to stop grinding for a break. If you clean your grinder every few minutes, then this grinder is for you. It will run continuously. The only stop you get is when the bin is full. It stops, sometimes in the middle of the stack. The indicator light comes on to warn you when the tank is full. The basketโ€ฆ

  • Something

  • is too stupid
