Default Paper shredders for the office

Anyone here use or know of a good paper shredder? I'm looking to
replace my Executive machines model that died, (it was a long slow
death). I checked it out and the plastic spacers that keep the knives
apart are broken/gone, the knives now bind up and overload the
machine. I did consider machining some aluminum spacers and
rebuilding the whole thing but I don't think it's worth it.

I want cross cut, at least 8 sheet capacity, and BIG!! By that I
mean a good sized basket underneath. Every shredder I look at now
has the basket built in and safety locked. But the baskets are small!
I shred EVERYTHING, not just the important stuff, gives thiefs about
900% more to look through and peice back together. I would love a
machine that is about 30-36 inches tall VS the 18-20" that i'm
seeing. Hell 40-48" would be OK, I can still reach it from my desk
chair.

I did find tall models like this but they were over $1000.00

Thank You,
Randy
