I use your shredder, along with 9 other people in our office. Well, we each have one of the shredders you worked on.

www.outpost.com basically carries the widest lineup of our shredders

But if you ever have any problems with the shredder, please let me know and the Mingster will be here to help

There will be some cool promos at Staples and Office Depot for shredders from July through September, so watch out for those. Xerox branded shredders, Privacy Guard branded strip cut shredders (Office Depot), and Identity Guard branded shredders are my babies.

For my office a service that shreds on-site is the only way to go.

For my personal use, I have a small shredder at home that takes care of old bills, credit card statements, etc. I had a hard time finding a desktop model that would make small cross-cut shreds.

I would highly recommend this model:

http://shop1.outpost.com/product/3996098

It shreds paper, floppy discs, CD/DVD. The only thing about the paper portion is that you have to fold (up to 6-sheets of regular paper) before inserting.

We have two shredders; one strip and one cross-cut. They get quite a bit of use through our home-based business.

I would eventually like a higher capacity cross-cut shredder for business use.
