Does Shredder have any small pieces? Looks like the shoulder pads can come off.

No, the shoulder pads don't come off. My grandboy is very rough with his and so far nothing has broken or came off of Shredder.

No he does not. My grandson loved it. And I was glad there were not small parts because my 1 year old grandson could not get any of the parts

Be aware that the 2 disks that come with the Handy Prep are much smaller than those that come with the larger processors. I'm not at all sure that the little Handy Prep disks would fit this holder, even though Amazon suggests buying them together. There are only 2 disks -the shredder and the slicer. The cutting blade is the one I use 95% of the time, and it stores in the processor. Finally, the other attachment, which shoots shredded stuff out of the processor and into a bowl of your choice, is large enough that it certainly won't fit into a disk holder. Bottom line: I would not recommend the additional expense of the disk holder. A plastic zip-lock bag would work just fine (at least, it does for me :) Be aware that the 2 disks that come with the Handy Prep are much smaller than those that come with the larger processors.

All is well - there is a seperate grater attachment that will shred. You just take the spinner handle top off and lay the shred attachment into place.

Actually they do go with the shredder. Using a lot of force on them in did the trick. It took about three minutes. The first three wheels went easily, but the last one was a bit tougher than the others.

There's a single velcro disc about the size of a quarter. I left my pad in place continuously for six months and the adhesive on the drum head gave out. Now I use three office binder clips on the rim -- works fine. I'd say they cut the volume by half, maybe 2/3. It's just a dull thud that doesn't carry like resonating tom would. Everyone in the house will know when you play, but a couple rooms away with doors closed they'll be able to watch TV, etc.

I have not had the unit overheat yet and have shredded a lot of material - I also tend to throw unopened junk mail in the shredder and it has no issues. This is the best shredder I have ever used. The only two things I can think of that are negative is the bin is a little small but I knew this when I purchased it and the corners on my bin were bent (plastic) and it was obvious this was not from shipping - it's minor and does not affect anything just cosmetic.

The shredder is large, however is on wheels. I do not know how that could help you, I really can not say enough good things about this item. We probably do shred more than the average household, because my husband has a office for his Job in our home, but I would have bought this anyway. It is not an eye sore. Worth every penny! I tried smaller ones, just did not last. Hope this helps.

I don't use a bag with mine and just pick up bits that fall on the floor when I remove the shreddings into a paper bag for recycling. It's not too much more work.

No tray. I can feed multiple sheets of 8.5x11 inch at a time. It even takes small pieces 1x3 inches. Of all the shredders I have owned, this one has more strength hand stamina. If you are just wanting a machine ready to take on one sheet, or a big pile of papers you won't have to wait for it to cool off.

No it does not...I've used ours a lot!!! What I do..... take a sheet of newsprint, fold it to fit the slot. Spray WD40 across the center and shred away!!! I tend to shred a lot at one sitting so I 40 it before every session. RLC

It is quieter than a lot of shredders I have used. The noise level does vary with what is being shredded.

I haven't used the shredder yet but I would think the same way as the slicer. And I love the slicer, especially for onions. But definitely use the grabber guard as instructions indicate or else you may cut your finger when you get down too far.

I just tested it for you and ground through one of the daily junk mail Chase credit card apps envelopes, and it shredded it no problem. I love my Fellowes. It's the best shredder I've purchased. Remember to use some oil every now and then, per the instructions, to keep it moving well. I also take the top off and make sure nothing has wrapped itself around anything. Be sure to unplug it first, says Momma Sharon, I don't think you will be disappointed.

I have not seen any small parts. It is very well made and my grand children love using it.

Yes, the waste basket pulls out. I've been very happy with this shredder. It's not meant for industrial use, but it works great for my home office.

No, the actual set portion detaches quite easily to allow for proper cleaning. We don't use the pad because it made it more time consuming to clean when our son gets messy

I don't know of any small parts. It is all one mechanism for set up and take down.
