Gbc Shredmaster Cc175 Cross-cut Personal Shredder Review
If you're looking for a powerful paper shredder that offers a high degree of document security
, consider the GBC Shredmaster CC175 cross-cut shredder. Although this unit is marketed as a personal shredder, it could just as well be used in an office environment, especially those on a budget. The Shredmaster CC175 retails for less than $200, but offers some great features for the price, so read on to find out how this GBC paper shredder can benefit your home or office.
First off, this paper shredder is one of the more stylish units on the market, so it'll be easy to incorporate it into your home or office's design scheme. This shredder is ergonomically designed, which means you won't need to drag it out from under a desk to use it, so you'll save both time and energy. Also, the handle on the shredder head makes it easy to empty the wastebasket. (The wastebasket capacity is 5.5 gallons.) And you'll always know when it's time to empty the wastebasket because it has a window so you can see how full it's getting. The CC175 Shredmaster also has some other nice features, including a 8 3/4" throat, automatic on/off capabilities, a reverse mode (which makes clearing jams a lot easier), and a built-in lock to prevent untended use and possible injury.
As for performance, the CC175 Shredmaster really shines in this area. It can quickly shred up to eight sheets at a time. It can destroy credit cards as well, and staples and paper clips won't damage the machine. This is a cross-cut shredder with Level Three security, so it's a good choice if you need to destroy sensitive information such as employee records and financial information. The chips this machine produces measure 5/32" x 1 9/16", so there's no way an identity thief will be able to reassemble your documents, which should give you peace of mind.
As with any paper shredder, the CC175 does a have a couple of drawbacks. For one, the shredder lacks casters so transporting the unit isn't as easy as it could be. However, the shredder's relatively small size helps in this regard. This isn't a huge, heavy machine that's impossible to move. It's just that casters would have been a nice touch. Also, some users may find it difficult to feed sheets in the machine because it can be challenging to get the papers in the right position to turn on the machine. However, users may find it easier to use the machine as they become more comfortable with it and use it on a regular basis.
Overall, the GBC Shredmaster CC-175 paper shredder is a fine product and a good choice for anyone who needs a paper shredder. Both home and business users will appreciate the shredder's security level, as well as its modern-looking body and its ergonomically features. Although some people may find the shredder difficult to use at first, the shredding capability, security features, and price should trump any of those concerns.
