I rarely write reviews but had to rave about this

I just used this shredder and all I can say is it is a "monster" machine and takes massive papers. I got tired before it did. I bought it because of the long run time of 60 minutes. It outranks the other run times shredders. I am a pro at shredding because I have gone through so many. I never heard of this brand but decided to give it a try.

It is true to form. Most shredders get stuck if the paper isn't placed in it straight. Not this one it took a stack of papers, even when the papers went in crooked. There are many good features about it.. I like the automatic reverse if there is too much paper, the fan comes on automatically to cool it down while it is working so it doesn't stop on you I also tested it past the 12 sheet limit and it did well. Another great feature is the slot for the papers is wide not thin like other shredders and the microcut is fabulous, you can use it for confetti for parties WooHoo. The waste basket is fairly large so you can shred many papers without having to stop and empty it.

Quick and quiet. As advertised.

This works great. I am surprised. I tried other micro cut machines and they all created the incredibly small chips of paper. But this is quiet, quick and the only one I could find that would run for up to an hour. Check out other models, especially the ones on TV and you will see what I mean. Some of them only run a few minutes and then you need to leave them cool down for twice as long as they were running. One machine only ran non stop for two minutes and had to cool down for 10. So, if you have a significant amount of shredding, this is what you need. I also experimented by loading it up with a full 12 sheets and it seemed to slow a little, but never stopped. I even tried running it ongoing for almost 10 minutes, and there was no problem. It hasn't overheated and it chops up everything. It has a credit card on the top, but the ad says it does not cut credit cards. I tried it any way and it shredded the card perfectly. It is quiet and quick. I am definitely keeping this machine. I bought the extended warranty, but it looks like this is a solid machine and will not need any work. I am very happy with this purchase.

Durable & Quiet Shredder

I purchased this shredder for home use. I prefer this unit's micro-cut feature and although I haven't pushed the 60 minute continuous shred time, I have used it for more than 30 minutes continuously and it did not shut down due to overheat. I have shredded credit cards, staples and multi-page documents without issue (max pages I've done at once so far is 8). The shredder is relatively quiet, easy to move due to the wheeled base and easy to empty with the pull out basket which also has a view window for easy fill depth determination.
