Review: Good machine. - Works very well. I bought some oil that you squirt on to a piece of paper which needs to be shredded - easy way to oil and clean the cogs. Only thing that did not work so well was shredding newspaper - it clogged up the cutters a bit as it is so thin and fluffy. We got this to shred our paper for the compost which is why I tried newspaper. All the other stuff is shredded brilliantly. We bought this machine in march 2009 and it has now given up we think - Dec 2015 so I am writing an update. Works well if you know a few quirks. We now keep paper from the 2 far edges of the cutters (fold A4 in half) as the rods each end get clogged up with paper otherwise. It takes a while with a screw driver or other strong object to clear it as it binds round the bar very tightly. That is the only reason we took the heavy machine top off which led to a small accident trying to replace the top one day. I dropped it and it cracked the base the collecter sits on. We managed to sort that and continue using it for 2 more years. It has now died as it will work in reverse but not forward so can not do its job - worked 6 years 9 months.
Review: great shredder - after years of using Fellows brand shredders which always went wrong after a few months of low usage I wanted to try a different brand. This time after reading the reviews on desertcart I decided to go for the swordfish 1000xc cross cutter shredder.What a pleasant surprise when it arrived.It was well made and a good size for my home office. Not too large and not too small.After using it for the first time I could see it was a solid and very good shredder. It was quiet and cut everything I put in it without jamming or overheating. It also stopped automatically.All of my previous Fellows shredders ( and they were top end shredders) lost the ability to stop automatically after each paper shred within a few months of my ownership.The Fellows shredders also kept jamming after several loads of paper.I had put up with this for years of having to turn the forward/revere switch to off after each use. The swordfish shredder is a very good product and I would strongly recommend it. I use it in my home office for low to medium use shredding.I am so pleased that I went for this make and model.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is this manufactured?**
A: It is made in PRC whereever that is probably China, it is distributed by Snowpak. Hope the helps.

**Q: Do you know where we could get a new gear for this shredder?**
A: I don't know, mine broke down after a week so I sent it back to Amazon. I then brought the Amazon Basics and it is the best shredder I have seen http://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-12-Sheet-Cross-Cut-Shredder-Shred/dp/B0079JM3LO/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1421677870&sr=8-6&keywords=shreddersIf yours is reasonably new I would send it back to Amazon and buy the Amazon Basics one.

**Q: How often does the shredder need to be oiled?**
A: I had my Swordfish for about 3 weeks before it broke, oiled it frequently as I was doing some shredding of old documents but the machine kept overheating amd I was only using 2 sheets 80gsm paper at a time, absolute rubbish, got a replacement same thing happened, returned for refund. Save your money buy a cheapo and bin it if it breaks, I bought an Aurora AS800CD which works far better and never even overheated yet. Nil stars for Swordfish.

**Q: Can it cope with cardboard?**
A: I only use it to shred occasional paperwork. However the instruction booklet says it can take up to 10 sheets of 80 gsm A4 paper, but adds that after 3 minutes should be allowed to cool down or it cuts out and can't be restarted for 50 minutes. Why would you want to shred card anyway? Your local council should recycle cardboard, or at least put it in General Waste. My advice is just use it for a few sheets paper at a time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good Shredder
*by P***R on 19 December 2015*

This shredder is fairly quiet and shreds paper very well. The paper does not get stuck on the blades. I have used up to 5 sheets of paper at a time and it has no problem with this number. It is easy to open and empty and also easy to see when it is full. When first putting it together I thought that it was a bit flimsy but this does not appear to be a problem. It took a few moments to get it placed correctly on the top as it will not work unless correctly fitted. It also turns off when you empty it which is a good idea. The casters are useful but they do not slide easily on carpet. I bought this as it was a Which recommended product and it is worth purchasing.
