MBM's Destroyit 2360 SMC High Security
Paper Shredder is an ideal system for a smaller office with highly
classified information. At a level 6 security, this shredder offers the
highest protection available. Safety features and high quality
craftsmanship work together to provide a safe and reliable shredder
that is backed by a one year warranty. Here are some of the 2360 SMC's
pros and cons.
Strengths:
The biggest selling
point of this device is the extremely high security which it provides.
The hardened steel blades convert full size documents into tiny
confetti. The pieces left are only 1/32 inch by 3/16 inch and are
virtually impossible to reassemble. This meets the standards for NSA
and CSS specifications for document destruction and is DOD approved as
well. You can rest assured that any confidential information you need
to dispose of has been thoroughly obliterated.
The Safety
Protection System works to prevent accidental injuries. An
electronically run transparent safety shield keeps fingers and other
objects from entering the blades. A single multifunction switch toggles
between stand-by, stop, and reverse, simplifying operation to one
button. The automatic stop also activates when the shred bag is full,
if the cabinet is open, or in the event of a paper jam. If a paper jam
occurs, the auto reverse sends the paper back out to the user, helping
to unclog the blades. An energy saving mechanism powers the machine
down to a "sleep" mode after one hour of inactivity, saving you
precious electricity.
A powerful, single phase motor drives
the shredder. It is double protected from overheating in order to
reliably run and save you money on costly repairs. A dustproof housing
encloses the gearbox, ensuring the device stays in top working
condition.
Items are inserted into a 9.5 inch feed which
accepts up to 7 sheets at once and begins shredding automatically.
Paper is quickly turned into miniscule particles as fast as 14 feet per
minute. The remnants fall into a 9.25 gallon bin fitted with an
environmentally friendly reusable plastic bag. The container is housed
in a high quality wooden cabinet which acts as a noise reducer.
Weaknesses:
The
throat width is only 9.5 inches. Anything much bigger than a standard
sheet of paper won't fit right into the feed without being cut in half
or folded. For most small business users, this won't present a problem.
If your shredding needs include many larger documents, you may want to
upgrade to an office shredder with a wider opening.
This
machine only handles 5-7 sheets at once at 14 feet per minute. This is
excellent for a small, high security shredder. However, offices having
a high volume of classified documents to shred will want to invest in a
higher capacity shredder.
For a small, high security
shredder, the 2360 is an ideal choice. The many automatic and safety
features make use a breeze. Steel blades tear your confidential
information into tiny particles impossible to reassemble, keeping your
information safe. The whole unit is backed by a one year warranty
(except wearables). We highly recommend the 2360 SMC for your next high
security office shredder.
