Bought (only with silver handle) at LIDL for just under 28 euros, the same device. There is touted with a cutting capacity of 8 sheets that actually creates the device (even with paper clips). For thick photo paper 3 leaves are still cut, while trying with 5 sheets of photo paper blockerte the cutting. Of course, the cutting is not very quiet, but in the context of what you can expect in such a device. Besides the clean shredding I felt two things as particularly positive: On the one hand, my predecessor, a simple strip cutter, the wastebasket underneath with his stripes made fully even with very few leaf, then the Trash for other paper waste was no longer available. This shredder is for weeks in readiness and swallows repeatedly leaves as small shredded then that they take up little space. And through the closed container, it remains a clean business. In the window can be seen, when in fact emptying is announced. Secondly, the separate container for shredded CDs positive impact. While walking to tons of plastic can be dumped into the yellow and paper in the blue container without first have to be separated with difficulty. In the beginning a little static dirt-charging the black container was observed, but that has subsided in operation. Overall, a recommendable device.
