Customer Comments:

I have just returned from my house in France where I have a Scheppach 45 mm Shredder.. I was happily shredding the days loppings at 9.00pm one evening without disturbing the neighbours and I thought I should write and tell you how wonderful this shredder is!
I have had two of these for over a year- one for our UK house and one for our house in France. They cope with anything I throw at them, they are extremely reliable - and they are extremely quiet - which means that we can work early in the morning and late at night without disturbing anyone.
I bought them after reading the review in the Daily Telegraph - and never regretted it.
Many thanks, Colin Campbell

Hello Sylvia ,
My top tip would be to purchase one of your Scheppach shredders - best thing I've ever bought for the garden. No problem with getting rid of all those prunings any more and all the shreddings can be put straight back on the beds as a very useful and good-looking mulch. Brilliant !
I've just sent my copy of your catalogue to my daughter-in-law's Dad , as I've recommended the shredder to him - so hopefully another sale for you.
Keep up the good work. All the best to you all.

The compost makers I ordered arrived this morning. What fantastic service! I admit I was a little sceptical about the time (a few minutes) quoted for putting them together: IKEA flatpacks sprang to mind. However, it was as simple and as quick as you said and I am delighted (sad, I know, to be so enthused about compost makers). The accompanying literature was also very useful.
A couple of years ago I bought a Sheppach shredder from you and have to say I do not know how I managed without it. It is easy to move, easy to operate, easy to keep clean and, above all, quiet. I do wish manufacturers of garden equipment would pay more attention to noise levels: one of the worst 'pollutants', I feel.
Anyway, many thanks for your superb service and quality goods.
