from DanH from Smithville, TX, www.circuitcity.com
in one sitting of continuus use, i filled the entire wastecan (7 gallons or 4 filled plastic grocery bags), and it never even whimpered.
from www.amazon.com
the pullout waste can makes it simple, fast, and clean to empty without having to lift the shredder mechanism off the top.
from www.amazon.com
it has a convenient pull-out wastebasket, and it quietly shreds everything you feed it into confetti sized bits.
from www.amazon.com
it does have a viewing window to be able to tell when the wastebasket is full.
from www.amazon.com
the top of the machine is very heavy and awkward to place back on the wastebasket part of the shredder.

very happy with this shredder, works wonderfully, sits on the floor like a wastebasket off to the side and you don''t have to empty it all the time.
from www.amazon.com
a shredder with a slide-out wastebasket.
from www.amazon.com
it is very quiet, and the wastebasket in front is great for other trash as well.
from www.amazon.com
love the design: the mesh can is not only sturdy and see-through to watch paper level, but the step-on edge easily allows it to be used as a waste basket without shredding.
from www.amazon.com
it is quiet and the ease of emptying the shredded waste is superior!

from Robert from Fort Worth, TX, clickfrom.buy.com
i have shredded over five xerox boxes of paper since receiving my shredder a month ago (enough to fill six 30 gallon with compressed waste!).
from A Customer from New York, New York, clickfrom.buy.com
the waste paper basket plastic door open sensor piece was broken.
from Chuck J from Chicago, IL, clickfrom.buy.com
the only disappointment was that the small bottle of lubricating oil which was included leaked onto the supply of waste bags that was also included.
from www.amazon.com
it looks great, and the wastebasket is large and very easy to manage.
from www.amazon.com
it shreds so thin, it saves you time, space, money, and reduces waste!

from www.amazon.com
having had a lessor (un-named) shredder, i knew that my shredding needs were beyond the waste-paper-basket sized machines for less money.
from nbritton, www.newegg.com
other thoughts: you can extend the duty cycle with a box fan, take out the waste basket then put the fan up to it.
from www.amazon.com
the only minor drawback is the challenge in changing the bag without having to vacuum out the shredded paper pieces in the slide-out wastebasket compartment.
from BrokNFoam, www.newegg.com
additionally, the waste basket on this is very large.

from www.amazon.com
i would have to agree - they found a loophole with our original shredder that allowed them to not replace - so, i wouldn't waste my money on the additional warranty.
from www.amazon.com
the only problem i discovered is that there were some sharp edges inside the waste bin that would puncture the receptacle bag so i filed them off.
from www.amazon.com
the large integrated waste basket slides out easily.

from www.amazon.com
this shredder is compact; it is about the same size as a medium size waste basket.
from www.amazon.com
if the wastebasket that comes with the shredder is "too small" for your use, simply apply "common sense" by putting the shredder over a larger wastebasket!
from www.amazon.com
it even has a pull-out attachment to place on a larger waste can if needed.
from www.amazon.com
kitchen-size wastebasket works great.

ran great and i don't think it is as noisey as my other burned out unit''only thing is you have to dump the wastebasket more often..

i really like the ease of pulling out the waste basket and dumping it, nice design.

we love the slide-out removal of the basket, whichwas hard to find in a shredder this size as opposed to the ones you have to lift off the waste basket.

isn't too noisy, truly shreds into confetti-size pieces and has a nice size wastebasket that pulls out easily.
from Tim from Easley, SC, www.circuitcity.com
the removable bin is so much better than those other that sit on top of the waste bin.

the only complaint is the waste bin is attached to the door, and it is made out of cheap material, probably with slave labor.

from www.amazon.com
the recessed lid is great for checking the level of shredded paper, but the shredder unit is heavy and unwieldy when it comes time to empty the wastebasket.
from www.amazon.com
after the first few uses the plastic shield inside the shredder which ostensibly guides the shredded paper into the wastecan fell off, but the functioning of the shredder doesn't seem to be affected.
from www.amazon.com
my only complaint is, it is a little messy when you want to empty the waste bin.
from www.amazon.com
it snaps onto the wastebasket and swivels up and down which is somewhat handy.
from www.amazon.com
the waste basket that it comes with is also nice and large so i dont have to empty as often.

the only downfall i can see with this shredder is that when you empty the waste basket, you have to kind of play with it to get it to go back correctly.
from www.amazon.com
the waste capacity is satisfactory for our office (we have to empty the basket about once per week).

it would take me a better part of half-an-hour or more (with dumping the waste basket at least once).

if you've ever used shredders that you removed from their waste baskets, sometime the shards made such a mess.

dont waste your time buying this shredder unless you like shredding money!!!!!!
from www.shopping.com
cons: care must be taken inserting unit onto the safety micro-switch activation wastebasket bracket.
from www.amazon.com
however, the small, cheaply made limit switch was no longer part of the unit (it apparently got shredded!) and now i have a nice, $13 steel wastebasket, so i cannot complain.
