do you have a cross cut shredder head

It's o.k. but it is inexpensive and only shreds a few pages at a time. Every 4 minutes, you have to let it rest. You only get what you pay for strongly applies here. It's perfect for me because it's good for a small apaertment.

Yes. Might work for light shredding, but not heavy duty enough for my needs.

No - there is another package where the cutter is included - you get an entire replacement head. Go to the Braun websitee - it's more specific and easier to follow for what you need - and then you can shop Amazon for the exact piece you want.

Have not used it for shredding papers as I have a shredder and use the paper from the shredder for composting.

Not as far as I know. It should work just as well with any brand of shredder.

I just tried an old gift card, and the machine cuts most of the card horizontally - the papers do get cross cut though. It appears that the machine is designed with a certain length where the cross cut happens, that may be the reason the card shred came mostly horizontal.

Yes, it's normal. To obtain more secure shred you need a cross-cut shredder. That said, the shredder is adequate for my personal purposes. If I had need for a really secure shred I would take it to work where we have shredders suitable for classified documents. Mixing the shredded documents with the garbage is a good idea, too.

This shredder is a fake. It is or was advertised as a diamond cut. When I received it the cut was regular, not acceptable and I sent it back. My advice, go to Walmart and buy a Fellows Small Cut shredder. Hope I helped.

Sorry I haven't tried this - sounds like you have an interesting recipe. I think the shred blade would come pretty close.

I have never seen just the top sold separately from the shredder. My top broke and I replaced the whole unit.

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

Yes, this has a separate slot for shredding discs. There is also a separate bin inside to collect the shredded discs. This stops them from getting mixed in with the confetti paper. Note that the disc will not shred to confetti , just into strips. So far I have been more than pleased with this shredder.

No. I use it on my Staples cross-shredder, alternately with shredder sheets. Everything has been working well for several years now.

If you can cut it with the dull back of a knife, then yes. Because these cutters are as dull. But most likely the shreds will just stick back together.

Unfortunately it is jumbled however I've never a shredder that had a separate compartment for plastic or CD clippings. In addition when you oil the shredder, that paper with the oil on it also is all mixed in so if you were thinking in terms of recycling the paper... you could... but only with planning your emptying at certain times which is exactly what I do.

I wouldn't anyway. Metal blade rotator. It is the easiest shredder to clean I've seen. Takes 30 secs.
