It is important to consider the use that is going to be given to the shredder, whether for personal use, in a small office or office, or for higher performance:

Document shredders intended for personal use are designed to be used by 1 to 3 users, while shredders designed for an office They are suitable for a range of 3 to 10 users. High-performance shredders, also known as departmental, are manufactured to be used by more than 10 users, and so on, until reaching industrial-type paper shredders.
