A real powerhouse. The satisfying pleasure as if you were tearing a sheet, the thing takes over very well. I can't imagine my office without it. Only the volume, which someone in the comment before described as "quiet" is anything but quiet. But hey, ever quietly tore a leaf or hammered a nail into the wall or parked a 500hp car? So good is allowed to sound too. It's not loud, it's growling to itself. Good boy.
Pro
Very, very quiet compared to my previous Geha shredder!
The cutting unit makes a robust impression; the shredder does its job without a murmur.
I can't say anything about its durability yet.
Very practical: The manufacturer has dispensed with a separate container for shredded CDs / credit cards - this makes it easier to empty the collection container.

Does what it's supposed to: Eats and eager paper. Good and safe system. Even looks halfway ok.
Annoying, however, I find that the device gets trouble with more than 5 sheets - what you hear. Indicated are max. 10 sheets per "Stappeli" - when I put in the's only often after a short time only the return gear. Maybe I just have a duck.

The shredder has a pleasant size, plenty of storage space in the bin. Shreds at least the exact number of sheets that is specified. CDs and the like also go through without a problem. The cutting mechanism seems to be of high quality, makes a very solid impression.
The noise level is normal for a shredder in this category.
I find it a pity that the bin is not divided for CD/paper. So plastic shreds get mixed with paper shreds, which makes recycling tedious.

it is pretty loud comparing to the shredder we had before, otherwise does the job
