Default Shredders - Bosch vs Ryobi.

Hi all
Having started cutting back a load of wildly overgrown trees, bushes,
hedges, pretty much everything that the previous owners don't seem to
have pruned at all, I find that I'm getting unfeasibly large piles of
waste. Seems that a shredder and a compost heap or two might be in
order.

Previous discussion here seems to have leaned in favour of Bosch or
Ryobi shredders, which seem to be similarly priced. Both brands seem
to make regular models and quiet models. The Bosch quiet model has a
screw type blade, and both quiet models have reverse, where as the
regular models don't appear to.

So, if you'd be so kind, in the experience of the group: Bosch or
Ryobi, quiet or not?

TIA

Just a point of information, Be carefull, the birds round here are
starting to look for nesting sites, and remember it is against the law
to destroy a birds nest, even if they are only starting to build.
So Cut with care.
My chiper is petrol driven and capacity was my deciding factor.
