Is it capable to do a large amt. of shredding cabbage without burning out.

I have owned this unit for about 2 years. It is a workhorse. Quiet and efficient. I use it to process cabbage for sauerkraut. Usually 10 to 15 heads at a time. This is a very fast processor. I would purchase it again.

I generally make a slaw out of a full head of both white and red cabbage as well as carrots, radishes, green onions and daikon (a japanese radish). I alternate items to simplify the mixing step and I need to process several large bowls to accommodate the total volume. The machine has no problem with large quantity shredding.

I dont think there is anything that it cant handle. I have the larger one with a 14 cup capacity. We use it to prepare for large groups quite often. Cabage, potatoes, blocks of cheese...
295
It certainly can! As long as you don't exceed the bowl capacity it will do great.
296
A resounding Yes! As long as you don't exceed capacity of the bowl sizes, cabbage will be an easy job.
297
Should not be a problem at all. This thing is built like a tank. As mentioned before, don't exceed bowl capacity.

You can continuously shred for between 20-25 minutes and then you need to let it cool down.

It worked fine with me for mozzarella. I even used it to shred a cucumber. The maximum size piece you can shred is 2-3 inches wide and essentially limitless length.

That would depend on how many sheets you are shredding at a time. But it is definitely not industrial, and will stop on a relatively small jam (but can be reversed.) It does have a sensor that will turn on/off between feeds. It is slower than most strip shredders that I have seen. (Back to your question) I doubt that you would get 5 minutes of continuous shredding, especially if you are feeding 8+ sheets at a time.

It does a great job on cabbage. I've made crocks of sauerkraut several times using it to do all of the shredding and have been very pleased.Gloria

I think so. It's not battery powered, it needs to be plugged in. So it shouldn't run out of juice in the middle of your project. If you're worried about the motor burning out for such a big project, I would seriously doubt that. Use a coarse-grit sanding belt and it will take less work from the motor. My carpenter friend has had his sander (same brand/model) for years and it's still going strong.

If your main shredding job is to shred lots of leaves, I wouldn't recommend this unit since the opening would be too small for that purpose. A push paddle is given and neccesary to push debris into the throat of the funnel top.

What I noticed is that machine will not work more than half an hour if I use continually, as I shred only once in a month. It need a good couple of hour cooling time, may be something wrong with my machine.

I've never heard of anyone doing that before but I don't know why it can't be done. It has the big center blade that could probably do that. But I am not for sure. Maybe you could write directly to the company and see what they say. I only had experience with the shredding and slicing blades, which I would NOT recommend. But some people don't care if it doesn't cut all that great. It is a very powerful machine, so I would imagine it could do the job. I hope that helps. Good luck.

I'm not sure, and I'm away from home so I can't look, but I've never had any problem with it not having enough power. I love the shredder attachment for coleslaw, and love the compact size.

Yes, it will shred cabbage as long as your chunks fit down the input chute. I haven't done much cheese with it. As long as you don't force the feed too hard and bind up the blade, it does fine.

I've never tried it. This shredder starts to groan with 4 sheets of paper. I don't try to force it as I have a lot of shredding to do cleaning out my house. I don't try to use it any more than 15 minutes at a time.

no, but I use this to shred leaves to make my own compost. Use your safety equipment!

I haven't been able to shred cheese, but it will chop it very fine. I use a mandolin slicer with a cheese shredder attachment. I did not receive a snap on cheese shredder with mine.

Unfortunately it doesn't shred cabbage, it just makes a big mess. I would stick with squash and carrots.

I shredded for at least 20 minutes before overheating. It seems to be a nice little machine though.

I does stay active for several seconds after the sheet(s) are shredded, so you could call that continuous feed. It does get rather warm after continued use for a lot of shredding. If you need to shred a high volume of paper, I would look for a more heavy duty (and continuous duty) machine. For home use or even small business, it is a great machine.
