it can take upto 11 sheets of paper and chews them up w/o any problems.
the individual features are great such as 11 sheet shred capacity, reverse function, very good cutters, 4 1/2 gallon waste basket with magnetic sarety interlock.
it shreds through 10-12 sheets of paper with ease, and is strong enough to take junk mail envelope and all.
it shreds up to 11 sheets at a time and will shred credit/identity cards.
large basket, easily handles 11 sheets which means you can drop whole letters, e.g., unwanted credit card offers, into it without needing to open your junk mail.
i'm not sure that it's always capable of 17 sheets, but i suppose it all depends on the paper density, humidity, etc.
takes multiple sheets in larger quantities.
mult-sheet feeds / cd's / staples - takes them all down.
supposedly it can handle up to 17 sheets of paper at a time, but in my experience it jams regularly with only 6.
you have to fold 8x10 sheets of paper to fit them into the shredder slot, but if you don't mind doing that, it's perfect for taking care of junk mail.
i'll do no more than 7 sheet or 4 thick sheets at a time and it does fine.
you can only expect this one to shred a few pages at a time and the opening is half a letter size sheet, so expect to fold pages or only shred envelopes with little inside at one time.
i'm not a lawyer or a collector, so i don't have 100 sheets to be shredded an hour.
this shredder is ok if you have 3 sheets to shred once a week.
