how much shredded paper will it hold?

You can fit up to 8 (normal weight) pages into the shredder at one time. I shredded a bunch of paper, and am guessing it held at least 200 pages (shredded).

Because the shreds are micro it will hold a large quantity - not sure of an exact number of sheets though. I have not had to empty it with normal usage for several weeks. Agree that it might well be 1 to 2 hundred shredded sheets.

The inside of the bin measures approximately 10"h x 11"w x 7"d, or very roughly 70-80% of a standard large paper grocery bag.I agree it could hold 100 - 200 shredded sheets, although as the bin fills you can pack down the shredded paper with your hands and greatly increase the capacity.

I use a 13 gal. kitchen bag to collect my shredded paper I can empty the shredder 4x to fill it up. So it holds about 3+ gal. This is a good shredder I am so happy with it and the price was great I know you can spend a lot more and get less shredder. The shreddings are tiny no chance of anyone putting that back together. For what it is worth I would buy it again in a heart beat. and pat myself on the back for it again. I did good

Depends on how thick the paper is. I fit a 20 yard 24inch roll of drafting paper with space to spare.

They are about an 1/8th of an inch although it depends on how the paper goes into the shredder.

I am sure it will but not all at once. It would have to be ripped into smaller sections to shred it. It can handle about 6 sheets of paper easily. The opening can only handle an 8.5" piece of paper though.

I pack it full. You can fit a small binder in a pocket. Probably like a stack of 200 sheets. Your limit is how strong you hang it (hooks, nails, etc). If you just tack it, it will fall from the weight.

The box should hold at least 35 pages and the pages are double sided so its gonna hold a lot. I have several of them and they are great.

I only use 8" X 12" paper but if you put the paper sideway it will hold it, I am very satisfied with it.

You use the bypass tray for 11"x17" paper. The tray holds only 25-40 papers at a time.

The 2" binder should hold 200 pages nicely. I use the 1" for holding between 80 and 100 pp with room to spare.

The binder rings are just a hair under 1" in diameter. It will easily hold 50 sheets of paper.

It is not going to hold a book but it is very stiff and would definitely hold a pamphlet or maybe 15-20 pages of computer paper without sagging....my guess only......

The paper is very heavyweight. I have fifty pages and that seems to be the limit. It is one of the best scrapbooks out there.

The binder will hold a ream of 20# paper. You should be able to easily file and review 300 pages.

HiI would estimate approx 20 or so. I also store 2 binders in addition to one of those expanded file systems in there. Great idea for storing files and not a back breaker with the rollers

its not very thick at all but it is not paper thin. I would say maybe 5-8 pieces of binder paper thick more or less

Hello, Peter. In specific response to your specific question, I've just done an in the field test w/ my identical shredder, obtained in March, on an empty 8.5x11 file folder (yellow in color if that means anything, and I think it does not), and timed it at 7 seconds, I'd say plus or minus 1. Now, if you're really grinding it, actually attempting 17 sheets or something, it is, of course, gonna slow down a tad. How long a tad is, I'm not sure. Overall, as a one person law office, I'm quite happy with the item. Make sure you don't bust the can into which the shards fall, though. Seems the item wouldn't work w/o an exact fit, and that's the can. Just THINK when handling same out to the trash. Don't drop it. As it's unsteady, watch where you set it. But overall, it's a great product. I'd do it again, w/o question.

I also use mine to hold 8.5x11 sheets. The trays can hold an entire ream of paper (tight fit). Manilla folders just barely fit in the trays with the edges curling up a bit. I don't have the item here to measure, but it's approximately 1 foot tall and I'm guessing the footprint is approximately 13x15?
