Hi,

Has anyone any views or experience of the Parkside garden shredder
that Lidl has on offer this week for 79.99? Seems to be quite a
powerful model for a cheap price.

dder

2500 watt motor with motor brake
Switch-plug combination device with an overload protector and
restarting interlock
Cutting device with interchangeable knives made from hardened special
steel for extra-fine shredding material
No tools needed to open shredder for maintenance and repairs
Safety loading funnel for branches of up to 4cm diameter
Made in Germany

Much better to get a shredder that has a worm drive to pull the material
in and crush it rather than knives. I changed and have never had to stop
my new shredder due to a blockage, but was regularly stopping and
clearing out the first one.
