The quite new shredder failed almost from day one. Although it only cost about $30, I should have taken it back. I buggered it when a knife jammed it, and so could not return it.
So we bought a new one. R was determined to buy a decent one and so we paid almost $100. While I did not particularly want a cross cut model that cuts horizontally as well as vertically, it was all that was available. So far, I am very impressed. It has a large bucket that does not need emptying so often and because the paper is cut finer, more fits into a given space.
Gone.
Arrived.
You made the right choice, but guess what? - Knives, men and electric items DO NOT mix.
ReplyDeleteIf they did - you would be able to return the original one ;)
But besides that - you are right the diagonal double cut is superior to the rest and less jams also because of the fineness!
Don't I know it IAS. It does seem to be superior. Money well spent.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth are you putting a knife through a paper shredder? Surely there are better ways to dispose of murder weapons?
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I think I need a paper shredder, my desk is covered in a pile of paper.
shhhhhhhh! - that secret was only between you me and the brick wall - no-one else wa meant to know ;)
ReplyDeleteJust remember once shredded - it may not be reconstituted LOL
Ben, I only mentally murder. I was trying to flick what was jamming it out and hit the trigger.
ReplyDeleteIAS, we have had shredders for a few years now. The worst I have done was a valid petrol 4c off docket.
noice!
ReplyDeleteI want one of those..and behind me here at work we have one...and I plan on using it at the end of the shift...because I heart it LOL.
