Many users have noted that the machine does not seem to turn on with one or two pushes of the "On" button. According to the product support person I called, the problem is related to how I place the shredder bags into the bin: there is a protruding plastic tab on the removable bin, which allows the machine to run when the removable bin is inserted properly: I understand that the tab is either at back left or front right of the removable bin, depending on whether you have the newer or older version of this model. The plastic tab sticks up above the rim of the removable bin about 1/2 inch - and the shredder bag must wrap over that plastic tab very tightly to allow the machine to operate. I used binder clips on either side of the plastic tab to hold the bag down tightly and this seems to work. Foolish of the makers to not include this crucial info in the instruction guide.

I bought the highest quality shredder available and have a low quality product. The rating in the store said it would shred for 20+ minutes but this one shuts off in less that 5 minutes of shredding. It will not restart for 5-10 minutes until it apparently cools down. It is very slow in shredding although it was rated as one of the fastest shredders. It quickly jams, quickly overheats, is much louder than any shredder we have had in this office. It was rated as the quietest, fastest, and most durable. I find it to be a bad bad choice that for which we paid way too much money.

Q:
We recently purchased this shredder and I have a question. It takes a really long time for the light to come on when we press it to shred paper. Can you tell me if that is a issue with the shredder or is that by design.

Q:
Can I use regular plastic trash bags in the bin?
Asked on 1/15/2013 by Anonymous
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  Regular plastic trash bags are about 13 gallons. The capacity of this shredder is 8 gallons. It would be better to use 8 or 10 gallon bags, so as not to have extra plastic bunching around the machine. This could be a hazard.
