Shreddin’ my life away
Sunday, January 27, 2008 – 6:35 am
I was so pleased when I purchased my beautiful new Ativa CX10W with a large slide-out wastebasket. Surely this will be a huge improvement over my previous clunky shredder, which required me to lift the heavy motor off the shredder basket and balance it precariously on top of the trash can in order to empty the shredder basket.
As it turns out, not so much. The very act of sliding out the wastebasket results in a shower of shredded junk being dumped all over the surrounding area. It’s completely impossible to do it without making a huge mess that requires vacuuming up. 
Ah, the problems of modern life.
