With an 8.75" (22.23 cm) feed width and a 3.5-gallon (13.2 L) wastebin capacity, it's ideal for personal use or small office environments to safely dispose of sensitive documents.
Security level (cut type) and continuous run time are key. Strip-cut models are insecure and outdated; always choose cross-cut or micro-cut. Available from $39.99.
