Review on Fellowes Powershred 8MC5 Micro Cut Shredder by Zachary Spaulding

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Despite its shortcomings, it's better than Strip Shredder

My product does not fit 8 sheets of 20lb Georgia Pacific paper. In fact, he slows down significantly at four. I would not recommend trying the 8. It's also less of a "shredder" and more of a "chew" - meaning mine doesn't "cut" the paper as hard as it looks, it just rips it apart. This leaves a lot of paper dust and can't always adequately break the connection between important strings of letters and numbers (like your account number, social security number, password, etc. EDIT BELOW ) Other than that, it's half the price of a more powerful shredder that actually does 8 sheets shred paper and/or lasts longer than 5 minutes without overheating. I think this product is worth the money. The $50 Price Niche Unfortunately, this isn't an "8-sheet shredder" as it's sold. If you really need an "8-sheet shredder," you'll probably have to pay at least double the asking price for this one Model. , width (first number) is larger than specified (7/64) for the device but length is within specification. Now I think a document was probably placed that could have too many legible numbers en shredder side - leading to numbers leads that are on the size of 25/64 inches. ATTENTION: Always insert documents into this document shredder from below or above, not from the side!)
