We recently took a look at the Kobra 300 CC2 Cross Cut Shredder. Overall the machine is quite nice but I'll let you be the judge after you see the pros and cons below. Always remember that the stated specs of a machine do not always translate precisely to a real-world environment.
Security
This shredder sports a level 4 security which means that no one is going to be able to read your documents. A level 3 in generally sufficient for most environments but the level 4 provides that extra level of security. An added bonus with this machine is that because the shreds are smaller, they take up less space so you'll be able to shred more paper before you have to dump out the bin. This will save you time and money (when it comes to bags).
Shredable Material
The Kobra 300 CC2 Cross Cut Shredder can shred Credit Cards, Paper Sergei Bobrovsky Russia Jersey , 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 rated for continuous operation. That means that theoretically you could shred all day long and the machine would not have to shut-down to cool off. Remember that results may vary under real-world operating conditions and things such as the temperature of the room will affect the ability of this motor to stay cool and continue to shred. We give this machine 2 pats on the back for being rated continuous duty and we know that you'll appreciate this feature in due time.
Bin Size
The Kobra 300 CC2 Cross Cut Shredder has a 21 gallon bin. We're happy with this size because it will give you a bit more time between emptying your bin. Although the size may make it difficult to fit this shredder in a tight space, it's always worth it in the long run to get a bigger bin size and move your office around a bit.
Throat Size
We love the 12 inch throat on this shredder because you can put in odd sized paper and it leaves plenty of breathing room when it comes to regular sized paper. Some of the smaller machines will crumple the paper and eventually jam because the throat opening is just not large enough.
Auto Oiler
With an Optional Auto-Oiler available on this machine we highly recommend that you get it pre-installed. The machine is pre-wired to accept an oiler so all the manufacturer has to do is hook it up properly and you'll never have to worry about messy oil again. Automatically oiling your machine takes the guess-work out of maintenance and will most likely increase the life of your machine.
Warranty
The Kobra 300 CC2 Cross Cut Shredder comes with a Limited 1 Year Warranty on Shredder Russia Olympics Jerseys , 5 Years on Cutting Blades. 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 $3,245.00 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.
