We recently took a look at the GBC ShredMaster GLM1130 Micro-Cut Jam Free Shredder.Overall the machine is quite nice but I’ll let you be the judge afteryou see the pros and cons below. Always remember that the stated specsof a machine do not always translate precisely to a real-worldenvironment.SecurityThis shredder sports a level 4 security which means that no one isgoing to be able to read your documents. A level 3 in generallysufficient for most environments but the level 4 provides that extralevel of security. An added bonus with this machine is that because theshreds are smaller, they take up less space so you’ll be able to shredmore paper before you have to dump out the bin. This will save you timeand money (when it comes to bags).Shredable MaterialThe GBC ShredMaster GLM1130 Micro-Cut Jam Free Shreddercan shred CDs, Credit Cards, Paper, Paper Clips, Staples. If you needto be able to shred something else then we recommend that you look at alarger machine and/or look for something with a little bit lowersecurity (the higher the security the less likelihood that the machineshreds something other than paper).Continuous MotorThis shredder is rated for continuous operation. That means thattheoretically you could shred all day long and the machine would nothave to shut-down to cool off. Remember that results may vary underreal-world operating conditions and things such as the temperature ofthe room will affect the ability of this motor to stay cool andcontinue to shred. We give this machine 2 pats on the back for beingrated continuous duty and we know that you’ll appreciate this featurein due time.Bin SizeThe GBC ShredMaster GLM1130 Micro-Cut Jam Free Shredderhas a 30 gallon bin. We’re happy with this size because it will giveyou a bit more time between emptying your bin. Although the size maymake it difficult to fit this shredder in a tight space, it’s alwaysworth it in the long run to get a bigger bin size and move your officearound a bit.Throat SizeThe 10 inch throat on this machine gives you a little bit ofbreathing room when you’re shredding regular size paper and the optionto shred a few odd shaped things. If you really have large paper, thenyou’ll need to look at machine with something larger than a 10” throat.WarrantyThe GBC ShredMaster GLM1130 Micro-Cut Jam Free Shredder comes with a1 year for cutters/2 years for machine, including on-site service. Thismeans that you have plenty of time to test out the machine and makesure that everything is running smoothly. Just make sure to properlycare for your machine and you shouldn’t have any issues.PriceThe MSRP is $2,499.00 but you can find it for much less online ifyou look around. Don’t let the price deter you until you do a littlebit of comparison shopping first.About the ManufacturerACCO Brands Corporation became an independent publicly tradedcompany on August 17, 2005.

The user empties the bottle into an oilreservoir at the top of the machine. When the machine is powered on,the self oiling process begins. It takes a few seconds to completeduring which time the oiling indicator light comes on. This isdifferent than the light that looks like an oil lamp which when glowingindicates that more oil is needed. The reservoir is designed to holdone full 16oz bottle of GBC oil. If the shredder is out of oil, itstill operates.
