Features
A function that automatically starts shredding when paper is inserted and automatically stops when shredding is complete. Even if you are busy, shredding starts and stops automatically, saving time and effort. Convenient for quickly processing documents received by mail or direct mail.
This function is not mentioned in the product information. Without automatic start/stop, the user must manually control the shredder, which can be less convenient, especially when shredding multiple documents. This function enhances ease of use by automatically initiating and ceasing shredding.
A function that reverses the blades to remove paper jams. Even if paper gets caught during shredding, it can be easily removed without damaging the device. Allows for safe and continuous use.
This function is not mentioned in the product information. Without reverse rotation, clearing paper jams can be difficult and may require manual intervention, potentially damaging the shredder. This function is crucial for quickly resolving jams and maintaining smooth operation.
A function that automatically stops operation when the motor temperature rises excessively. Prevents damage to the shredder due to continuous use and overheating. Enables safe use for extended periods.
This function is not mentioned in the product information. Without overheat prevention, the shredder is more susceptible to damage from prolonged use, potentially shortening its lifespan. This function protects the motor from overheating and ensures safe operation over extended periods.
A function that automatically stops operation when the waste box is full. Prevents paper scraps from overflowing and scattering. Reduces the hassle of frequently emptying the waste box.
This function is not mentioned in the product information. Without automatic stop when full, the user must manually monitor the waste bin level to prevent overflow, which can be messy and inconvenient. This function prevents overfilling and simplifies waste disposal.
A function that allows shredding of plastic cards such as credit cards. Protects personal information by completely destroying not only paper documents but also credit cards. Useful for disposing of expired cards.
This function is not mentioned in the product information. Without the ability to shred credit cards, users must find alternative methods for securely disposing of plastic cards, which can be inconvenient. This function adds an extra layer of security for personal information protection.
A function that locks the shredder to prevent accidental operation. Prevents children or pets from accidentally operating the shredder and causing injury. Provides peace of mind in homes with children or pets.
This function is not mentioned in the product information. Without a safety lock, there is a risk of accidental operation, especially in households with children or pets. This function prevents unauthorized use and ensures safe operation in various environments.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
This shredder is best suited for very light use due to its limited sheet capacity and short run time. It's a budget-friendly option for individuals with minimal shredding needs. The small size is a plus for those with limited space, but the lack of advanced features and low capacity are significant drawbacks. Durability may be a concern with frequent use.
