Reviewing The Fellowes Ds2 Cross Cut Paper Shredder
When searching for the perfect paper shredder for your home office or small business
, be sure to consider one of Fellowes smaller shredders, such as the DS-2. Backed by Fellowes' 5-year cutter warranty, this small deskside paper shredder shreds credit cards, envelopes and other paperwork at a respectable rate of 18 feet per minute. The electronic automatic on/off feature as well as Safe Sense technology helps to ensure your shredder is only used when you want to be. Here is a more detailed look at some of the DS-2's pros and cons.
Strengths:
* With dimensions of 16.5" x 15" x 12", this shredder will store tidily under your desk or table, taking up a minimal amount of floor space. The 4.8 gallon bin is equipped with a handle, making it easily carried to be emptied. Even in the smallest of offices it can be tucked out of the way and still accessible when needed.
* The 9" throat width accommodates up to eight sheets at a time at rates of up to 18 feet per minute. It will quickly shred envelopes, credit cards, and documents with staples and paper clips, enabling you to focus more time working and less time shredding. At full capacity, this machine is capable of destroying paper at an impressive 145 sheets per minute.
* This cutters on this model are guaranteed by Fellowes trustworthy 5-year warranty.
* Safe Sense Technology recognizes when hands are too close and automatically turns off the machine, keeping you, your children, and your pets safe from accidental injuries. The machine senses body heat and immediately stops, even in mid-shred.
* The cross cut mechanism on this shredder slices your paper into 5/32 by 2" pieces, rendering it practically impossible to reassemble and insuring higher security for you and your identity. The smaller pieces also fill up the bin much slower than a standard strip-cut shredder, reducing the amount of trips needed to empty the trash.
Weaknesses:
* The 9" paper entry easily handles letter sized documents as well as envelopes but anything larger than standard sized paper could not be put through unless folded or cut in half first. In a home office, this smaller size may not be an issue; however, many larger offices may want a slightly bigger model.
* Fellowes is known for superior jam proof technology, though none is featured on this specific shredder. While this isn't usually an issue for most home office needs, jam proof technology can be found on higher models.
* As with many smaller shredders, you can only run this one for about two to four minutes, then it must be turned off for 15 minutes to rest. For the average home office user with light shredding needs, this may only occur rarely. If you find your shredder has turned off, simply let it rest and come back to it in a little while.
Recommendation
Fellowes is internationally known for making high quality paper shredders and this one is no exception. With its many features and benefits, the DS-2 is an ideal fit to accommodate all your home office needs. Its impressive safety features make it safe for use around young children and animals. It may also work well as a deskside shredder in your workplace. Overall, we highly recommend this excellent machine.
