This is the second time around that I have owned a paper shredder. After burning the last one out I opted for a heavy-duty shredder for my home office. It may be expensive but it is less expensive than buying a new one every six months. The Shredmaster 960X Heavy-Duty Confetti-Cut Paper Shredder (there's a mouthful)zips through stacks of paper in one go. The resulting confetti is a bit of a mess when emptying the shredder but it comes in handy when shipping a package. My kids love to play with the confetti as well. The Shredmaster 960X is an investment but it should last through decades of continuous use.
