The reliable, light duty Crosscut paper shredder is ideal for home/office use. This compact machine features ShredSafe technology where a safety power shut-off will engage when "forced entry" is detected. When not in use, the cover plate completely closes the feed entry. Durable steel cutters shreds up to 8 sheets of paper or 1 credit card per pass. Includes a built-in handle for easy emptying of the 3.4-gallon wastebasket.
