Shred it!

Having little to no experience with paper shredder buying, my husband thought this little baby would be "just perfect" for my desk. (It was on sale and I think that might explain his enthusiasm.) As loathe as I am to criticize a "gift" from a beloved, I have to say unequivocally, this is a piece of useless junk.
(Sorry dear)
The paper capacity states 3 sheets- which really means only 1 sheet of paper folded enough to cram it into the "way too small" 5 in. slot. (Who makes 5 in. paper?) Not exactly "user friendly" when more work is required (you must re-conform each piece of paper, with creative folding) to get your paper into the stupid slot. And if you do exceed the 3 paper maximum capacity, the motor slows and complains loudly.
As for the envelop opener- can I say useless too many times? By the time you get the contents of the envelop aligned inside enough not to shred "it", you could have opened and read half your mail. About every 3rd envelop jams . Don't waste your time or money on this baby, even at a closeout prices!
