MBM Destroyit 4004 Strip Cut Shredder Review

The MBM Banana Boat Destroyit 4004 Strip Cut Shredder is a big-offic shredder that is intend to handl high-volum shred job on a continu and daili basis. Here is a rundown of some of the strength and weak of the 4004 Strip Cut Shredder.

Strengths:

1. The Destroyit 4004 Strip Cut is power by a fairli uniqu system. Featur a motor that oper at around 2 4/5 Hp, it alreadi rank as on of the more power shredder motor out there. It enabl the typic user to shred at about 48 feet per minut - an impress high rate of speed for a central offic shredder. Where the "unique" factor realli come in, howev is with the motor' automat two speed abilities. First there is a "power" mode which kick in when the user need to shred larger load of paper at on time. There is also, however, a "speed" mode for us when the shredder is be ask to shred smaller amounts. The two separ mode kick in, as we said, automatically, so you don't have to choos which mode to run the machin is. We don't know for certain which is the quickest method of get through a larg stack of shredding, but it' nice to see the increas abilities.

2. The 4004 Strip Cut claim the abil to shred up to around 55 sheet at a time. Our test show that, if we fan the page across the entir width of the paper feed opening, that the shredder wa abl to perform at of near the state capac more often than not. Thi kind of capac can vari greatly, it is import to know, accord to variou factor such as the rel qualiti of the power suppli in your building, the weight and thick of the paper you ar shred at ani given time, and even the rel humid of the region in which you live. Any wai you slice it, howev pun intend , the 4004 Strip Cut is a high-capac shredder.

3. We found Operat the Destroyit 4004 Strip Cut to be veri simple. A singl rocker switch control all of the functions, so the user is never unsur of the machine' oper mode. Sensor at the feed enabl automat on/off function, so you set the machin for simpl "walk away" operation, mean your time spent at the shredder is shortened.

4. The 4004 Strip Cut' 16 inch feed open help increas the sheet capac with the aforement fan abilities, and also enabl the shredder to accommod larger sheet such as EDP comput printouts.

5. The 4004 Strip Cut ha some basic safeti featur such as the automat revers function in the event of an overfeed. If a paper jam doe occur, the motor is set up to stop immedi and automatically. The power will also cut off when the cabinet door is open and when the shredder' wast receptacl is full.

6. The 4004 Strip Cut ha some small but conveni touch such as the extra larg shred box that is place on roller for easi emptying, and the heavi duti caster that allow you to move the machin around the offic if need be.

Weaknesses:

1. We cannot honestli claim that the 4004 Strip Cut oper in a veri quiet fashion by itself. There is an avail "sound reduct cover" design to go with the machine, but we didn't get a chanc to test it out.

2. The 4004 Strip Cut, as the name suggests, shred paper into a strip cut pattern, mean that it is not FA CTA compliant, and doe not offer a veri high level of security. If you want a similar machin that adher to the requir of FA CTA , you should take a look at the Cross Cut version of the 4004, which offer all the same featur at a slightli lower, but still impressive, sheet capacity.
