Vernietiger, Mat Zwart

It’s surprisingly quiet for a shredder—I can run it in the morning without waking anyone up, and the matte black casing doesn’t show dust like my old one did. The sleek design makes it feel less like an office appliance and more like part of the room.

The matte black finish looks way better in person than in photos, and it’s quiet enough that I don’t mind running it while on a call. It shreds through a week of junk mail without jamming, which is exactly what I needed.

I’ve had mine for a few weeks now and it’s become the quietest part of my morning routine—it hums but doesn’t rattle the whole desk like my old one. The matte black finish actually hides fingerprints and dust pretty well, which is a relief since it sits right by the window.
