Due to the increase in fraud and identity theft, everyone needs a paper shredder. If you need one for your home or small office, one to consider is the HSM 70.2. This rather compact shredder has some great special features and it would be a good way to get rid of your unwanted documents. Check out the details of this machine so you can decide if it s right for you.
The details:
* The 70.2 is a strip cut shredder with a Level 2 security rating. It transforms a sheet of paper into many shreds that are 1/4 wide. This shredder would be good for destroying personal documents (i.e. junk mail, old bank statements, etc.) but due to its relatively low security rating, it s not ideal for highly classified information.
* This shredder has a feed opening that s just under 9 wide. It ll be good for destroying legal and letter sized documents. However, if you wish to destroy paper that s wider than 8 inches or so, you ll either have to fold it up or trim it down so it will fit in the feed opening. When working with regular sized paper, the 70.2 can shred up to 6 sheets per pass. It has blades that are strong enough to tear through staples and paper clips, so if you accidentally leave those in your documents, don t worry about it. Altogether, this machine can shred up to 16 feet of material per minute.
* The 70.2 has a reverse more so you ll be able to clear up any paper jams that occur during operation.
* This machine has a waste bin that can contain up to 3.7 gallons of shreds. This capacity might seem a bit small, but keep in mind that the 70.2 has dimensions of 11.7 x 7 x 15.1 . Therefore, the waste bin capacity is more than adequate, Plus, since this shredder is so small, it ll be easy to find a place for it. Moving it will be easy too, since it only weighs 20 pounds.
* The 70.2 will start and stop operating on its own. When it s not in use, it remains in standby mode without using any power. The motor has been thermally protected so there s little chance of the machine overheating.
* Although this device has powerful blades and operates rather quickly, it doesn t make much noise. That way, it could possibly be used in shared workspaces and no one will be annoyed by the machine.
* Finally, this machine is surprisingly affordable for an HSM product. You ll be able to get HSM quality for not a lot of money.
Conclusion:
Overall, the HSM 70.2 is just about the perfect little shredder for personal use. It could even be used in a small office. It has a lot of features normally found in higher end devices (such as a thermally protected motor) and it doesn t cost a whole lot of money. While its shredding capacity and security rating don t make this machine an ideal choice for larger offices, most users are bound to be impressed by this powerful little machine due to its motor, small size, and quiet operation. Get yours today and start shredding!
