Do you think it would be possible to place this shredder on a larger basket? The basket seems very small to me.

I have a 30-gallon paper recycling bin, and the shredder's extension arm barely spans the 16" width (measured outside lip to outside lip), but it does the job beautifully. I found that I can span the depth of the bin with a 12" wooden ruler and place the extension arm on that for more stability, but I haven't found it necessary to do that.

The basket is quite small. I think the side has a small piece you can pull out to extend it. Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to double check since I'm currently not where the shredder is. Maybe another customer can verify?

There is an extension on the right-hand side that expands the support by 5" to 8".

Yes, I do it. There is a pull -out handle on the right side that fits over larger baskets.

I am sure you could but its actually one of the larger baskets that I have seen.

The support arm extends to the maximum to fit my waste basket that is 11" x 15" (opening at top) and 24" tall.

I wouldn't think so. You might could find another storage bin that would coordinate, but I never saw anything about purchasing extra baskets. They would likely cost about as much as the shelf.

Don't think they are big enough for that large a basket. Try an old fashioned paper towel/cheapest brand so it's the thinnest;-)and make your own for that monster.

I don't see how it could work if the handle is not removable. It's basically like a nylon stocking that stretches to fit the basket. I think the handle would be in the way. Hope this helps!

If you filled this basket with records, it would be quite heavy. I don't believe the wire frame would be sturdy enough if you picked up the basket after filling with with LPs. If you filled it and didn't move it, it would probably be fine.

It depends on the height o. Your basket. It may fit in the top. The top allows for a lot of room for storage. I keep this in my laundry room and it has helped with organization and storage where I had none.

I stopped trying to use the basket. I think this is a good piece of equipment overall, but the basket is flimsy and isn't designed to fit securely. I just use the bag to carry things.

Yes. It didn't work for me because I needed a laundry basket and this one is too small for that but should be perfect for your purpose.

I am sure it could be and I attempted to do so as advertised, but... It's a bit narrow in width, but the length was longer than the shelf I purchased separately. It's around the size of a standing brown paper bag. I ended up purchasing 2) of these baskets and set them up in a left / right side saddlebag arrangement.

It was too tall for our cabinet. But we wanted a maximum size basket, so my husband trimmed off the top rim to make it fit. With a trash bag over the edges nobody sees the cut. And we put a little stick on towel hook on the front as a pull to replace the handle that was cut off. Works like a charm.

I would not recommend. It's a great basket for everything else. I would look for one that is designed for dogs and with a cover for safety

I believe my baskets are smaller than 1.6 bushel, but that is a guess. I use rectangular shaped ones. The round baskets are awkward on this cart.

Unless a larger can has the same top shape as the Fellows shredder, I don'r know how you would be able to use it.

You "could" secure the basket on top of rack, but it would no longer be foldable and the two narrow sides would not be rigid. Save money, get a regular basket.

You can - we did the same. No middle shelf. No extra parts needed, the long and short legs go together. Our shredder is 18" tall and it gives us 8" clearance to put paper in.

The overall height of the bottom shelf would be reduced to 21 inches - not enough clearance for putting papers, etc. into a shredder.

It could be used as a small waste basket. I keep my curling iron and flat iron in it and it is almost as tall as the irons.
