Dahle 40330 SmartPower Paper Shredder with Automatic Oiler & Jam Protection - P-6 Security Level Cross Cut Shredder for 2-4 Users (6 Sheet Capacity) - Perfect for Home Office & Small Business Document Security

I have had a number of different shredders and used them extensively to shred lots of paperworks and tax returns from relatives as they moved out of their houses or passed away (50 years worth of paperwork for two relatives - so dozens of filling cabinets worth). No Oiling necessary and the throat design is easy to feed paper in because of the way it is tapered - kind of like a funnel. I've also noticed that the opening is wider than several others from Fellows & Staples - so if you have wider than normal paper or a stack that isn't all oriented the same way you can still feed it in without organizing it. I don't want to waste time organizing something I'm trying to destroy. Finally, it is very fast and relatively quiet in operation. Some shredders seem to struggle, this just happily and quickly shreds whatever you need. I have a Fellows Powershredd that sometimes works well and is sometimes finicky to load or overheats. It also is seems to want to be oiled very regularly which then wets all the shredding. (With all this shredding I recycle it and oil isn't good in the recycling bin.) The Staples shredder is very good, but it's throat is very particular as to how you feed the paper in so I spend more time feeding than I would think is necessary. It is a P5 or greater security level and has worked well with no issues. I lubricate the Staples one with the Lubrication sheets periodically and it has never jammed. I haven't had any issues with the Dahle Shredder at all and found it to be exceptionally easy & fast to use. Very impressed overall!!
