 Product Trial's Review

April 20-- Spotlight: Paper Shredders


Most reviewers agree that cross-cut shredders are more secure than strip-cut shredders. This is because cross-cut shredders produce paper confetti, which is more difficult to put back together than the paper strips from strip-cut shredders. What our reviewers found was that for light-use paper shredders, the strip-cut models functioned better than the cross-cut models. The light-use cross-cut models that we tested were prone to paper jams.


Product Trial tested more models made by Shuffle because they make the most paper shredders of any company. We also noticed that Shuffle receives more complaints than any company, especially for their light and medium use models. Heavy use models by Shuffle are known for their quality and durability.


Our favorite paper shredder is the Privacy Solutions PL-7800, which retails for $120. This cross-cut paper shredder works well, did not jam in any of our tests, and is well worth the money. The Privacy Solutions PL-7800 is rated for ten sheets of paper and, although it operated faster with fewer sheets, it had no trouble with all ten. It can handle about 300 sheets per day. It can also shred CDs. If you don’t need a CD shredder and have minimal shredding needs, the Privacy Solutions PL-6100, which retails for $79, is a good deal.

Hi Steve,


It was good to hear from you earlier today. It's been very busy around here too. We just finished our job candidate interviews yesterday. This means that today we will meet to figure out which candidates we would like to talk to further. It will probably be a long meeting.


I am glad you contacted me about when we can organize this year's executive management training sessions. It's hard to believe this will be the third year we've done it. I'm sending you my calendar for the month of April, so we can pick our dates. As you'll see, I'm pretty open at this point. Once we have the dates figured out, we should talk about whether we'd like to change any parts of the curriculum from last time. We should put together an initial list of people to invite.


I would also like to talk about turning our training materials into a book, but this is not urgent.


I hope you are well. Thanks for taking the initiative on organizing the third training session.


Art Goodman
