Default Garden Shredder recommendations?

If anyone would like to send me brief appreciations of their own
shredders I would be happy to add them to the FAQ.


More appropriately:

Everyone who owns one (and there are good many regulars who do) swears
by the Bosch AXT 2200 Quiet shredder. It is quiet and reliable and can
handled pretty well all the woody and semi-woody material a normal
gardener needs to shred. Do not get confused, because there is also a
Bosch AXT 2200 Rapid shredder, which uses a different, noisier and less
reliable mechanism. The quiet one uses a drum/cog cutter, and not
revolving blades. It has recently been replaced by the AXT 22 D, which
has no reports yet. Like most shredders, it will not handle leaves or
lots of fleshy foliage.



Good info. Thanks.
