MBM DestroyIt 2604 Strip Cut Paper Shredder Review
Nowadays, many businesses rely on the use of a centralized office shredder for their heavy duty shredding needs. One great machine for this purpose is the MBM Destroyit 2604 Strip Cut Paper Shredder. Designed for the low security needs of any office, this shredder can handle large amounts of material all day long, thanks to its continuous run motor. The many safety and automatic features make it easy and convenient to use. A high quality wooden cabinet helps reduce noise and is mounted on casters for easy mobility. Here is a detailed look at the 2604.
Strengths:
- As with many MBM shredders, this one is equipped with a Safety Protection System. A clear safety shield protects the photo cell controlled feed opening. This allows the machine to sense paper in the opening and begin shredding while also keeping fingers and other objects from getting caught in the blades. An "Easy Switch" function allows all three modes to be controlled by one button. The back-lit icons indicate operational status, whether stand-by, stop, or reverse. Stop is triggered if the shred bin is full, the cabinet is open, or there is a paper jam. If a paper jam occurs, the automatic reverse feeds the paper back to the user, helping to unclog the blades. Finally, an Energy Saving Mode causes the device to power down to a "sleep" mode after one hour of inactivity in an effort to conserve electricity.
- The powerful single phase motor is double protected from overheating. It also is rated for continuous use, allowing you to shred constantly without the downtime needed by many smaller machines. The durable gears have a sturdy twin drive system that is fully enclosed in a dustproof casing to protect against corrosion. These features as well as an automatic oil injection keep your shredder in top working condition.
- The hardened steel blades are backed by a lifetime warranty and can shred staples, paper clips, credit cards and CDs. They can take up to 30 sheets at once and slice them up to 18 feet per minute. An Electronic Capacity Control displays the exact sheet capacity levels during the shredding process to help prevent paper jams.
Weaknesses:
- This shredder is only rated a level 2 security. The 3/16 inch strips are safe enough for most general office shredding needs. If you have higher risk documents to dispose of, this same model is available in three different higher security levels.
- It only shreds at a rate of 18 feet per minute. While this is an excellent rate for 30 sheets at once, office with higher volume shredding needs may want to upgrade to a model with a larger capacity.
Overall, the MBM Destroyit 2604 is a great system for a centralized office shredder. The Safety Protection System ensures safe and convenient use. A powerful motor allows continuous all day operation. The hardened steel blades are guaranteed for life and easily destroy credit cards and CDs. The 2604 is an excellent choice for your next low security office shredder.
