Kobra 240 C2 Office Cross Cut Paper Shredder

I needed a powerful shredder for my office workers to use. They shred a large number of documents each day so they needed something reliable and dependable for their daily duties. It seemed to have some wonderful specifications so I decided to buy the machine for my office workers.

I like that it has a 24-hour continuous duty motor for lengthy shredding jobs. It has the ability to shred paper, paper clips, and staples. The continuous duty motor of the shredder powers through any task with an even amount of power with each cut. My office workers shred several hundred sheets of paper per week so it is so important that it can perform up to my expectations.

The machine has all automatic functioning. It took my office workers a few minutes to learn how to use. It is also easy to maintain. I oil the cutting blades according to the manufacturer's instructions, and I have not had any problems yet. I had to purchase the oil separately, but it was not very expensive. Some shredders come with the automatic oiling system, but this one does not. I don't find that it is a great inconvenience, but some may want to opt for a machine with the automatic oiling system if they do not have time to maintain the machine.

I can shred up to 10 sheets of paper at one time. This number may not seem high, but the shredder is a level 4 security machine that cross-cuts the sheets. I am very happy with the machine that I purchased.
