"I researched shredders for a month before I chose to get this one for our office. When it works, it's great. The first one I got had a missing part and leaked oil. I had that part replaced but still had problems with oil leaking. They sent me a new machine. This one doesn't seem to leak because we only add 1/2 a bottle of oil at a time but now the jam light stays on and we hit the forward button to feed paper through. Sometimes it makes strange sounds. It runs by itself when we turn it on, before we put anything in it. We've had the computer kit replaced on it already too. We clean the sensor but that doesn't help. It only has a year warranty on it so I'm not sure what will happen since all the problems I've had started within 3 months of my purchase and now it's been over a year. This was one of the first models to have an internal oiler from what I hear. I hope they work out these problems because I really like it otherwise. I'm not sure if these problems are just kinks that have to be worked out and hopefully improved on the next model."

"With all of the regulations regarding identity theft, it was imperative that we destroy whatever paper documentation that was no longer necessary for our credit cards and credit accounts. The C-480C fit the bill and has met all of our expectations."
