Staples MailMate(TM) Shredder Review

I was delighted when I first bought this two months ago. It shreds paper like a dream.

That is, until it dies.

I've had two of these in two months' time. One died after two weeks; the other, a sturdier model, I assume, limped along for two months until it died in the midst of shredding this morning. No warning, no reason. It's dead.

No paper is clogging it. The container is empty -- and it was close to empty when it died.

Good thing the guy hoodwinked me into buying the extended warranty, huh? I can't wait to go up there today and tell them what a piece of crap it is -- and wait for them to give me another one in exchange. Let's just hope it lasts two months.

 Save yourself some time and money -- DON'T BUY IT.
