After pulling out our microscope and taking a closer look, the Formax FD 8202CC Cross-Cut Deskside Shredder has proved to be a worthy machine. It's a fairly versatile machine with a not-too-crazy price tag either (but remember you can often get a better deal if you call or email :-) Overall we'd recommend this machine but I suggest that you take a look at the specs yourself.
Security
At a level 3 security, this cross-cut shredder gets the job done. Although there are higher levels of security, a level 3 machine provides a sufficiently small cut size to put your identity theft worries to bed. We also like the cross-cut because it takes up much less space which means that you won't have to empty your bin as frequently as you would with a strip-cut machine. There is really no reason to jump up to a level 4 machine unless you have some ultra-sensitive documents you need destroyed.
Shredable Material
The Formax FD 8202CC Cross-Cut Deskside Shredder can shred CDs, Credit Cards, Paper Clips, Staples. If you need to be able to shred something else then we recommend that you look at a larger machine andor look for something with a little bit lower security (the higher the security the less likelihood that the machine shreds something other than paper).
Continuous Motor
This shredder is not rated for continuous use. That simply means that you will have to shut the machine down after a certain period of time to let it cool off. Now don't let this scare you away because most people will never reach that point unless they just sit down and start shredding and shredding and shredding. If you plan on doing all your shredding at one sitting then it is highly recommended that you get a machine with a continuous duty motor, otherwise you're just fine.
Bin Size
At 7 gallons, the Formax FD 8202CC Cross-Cut Deskside Shredder is a personaldeskside machine. You won't be able to shred too much before you have to empty it, but presumably you won't be shredding that frequently. If you will, we recommend that you jump up to something with a bigger bin size.
Throat Size
With a 8.9 inch throat this shredder gets the job done but doesn't leave much room for error. Your paper will fit in just fine but you'll just need to make sure that it doesn't bunch up and cause problems. If you have odd sized paper, you may want to think about getting something with a larger throat.
Auto Oiler
This machine does not come with an auto-oiler and does not have the option to have one installed. Although automatic oilers are not necessary to maintain your machine, they do take the guess-work out of maintenance. Don't hold it against the machine though as you can easily oil the machine yourself on regular intervals.
Warranty
The Formax FD 8202CC Cross-Cut Deskside Shredder comes with a Lifetime on cutters1 Year on all other parts. This means that you have plenty of time to test out the machine and make sure that everything is running smoothly. Just make sure to properly care for your machine and you shouldn't have any issues.
Price
The MSRP is $595.00 but you can find it for much less online if you look around. Don't let the price deter you until you do a little bit of comparison shopping first.
