Customer Review:
This shredder is a little workhorse.
It does exactly as it says, I've noticed the safety button shuts off if you leave it switched on all the time, but why would you need to, when I discovered this I had just forgotten to switch off; I always do now and it resets the safety feature.
In an age when shredders are must have items for security reasons, this is a good basic model and it works hard.
I don't understand comments like "don't get this is you have children", it's like saying "don't buy bleach or carving knifes if you have children". First of all how about wall mounting out of harms reach? Second, how about telling the kids it's dangerous, not a toy and will eat their fingers and last of all, why leave it set up waiting to mame and in harms reach???
Works Exactly as Advertised
This is a great little shredder. It works exactly as the manufacturer says, 2 minutes on and 4 minutes off to cool. I've found it works longer than 2 minutes. We have shredded years worth of documents without a single problem. Great for household use. Not a safety issue for us at all and we have 4 children.
Dangerous! Not for families with Children & No Service
I recommend against this shredder for families with children.
After filling the hopper one time, about a month and a half, the automatic shutoff quit working. The Shredder must be shut off after each shredding. I suppose the shredder is okay if you don't have children and don't mind turning it off between uses.
Now for the No Service. They are prompt to return your first call. This is good. Bad is the fact that I was told there were no service centers in the whole state, and would have to pack it up and pay shipping both ways. I can buy a fellowes shredder for the price of the shipping and have a new shredder that works safely and real service if I need it.
Go for a walk tonight and hold your child's hand firmly, they are little no longer all too soon.
