I think the story behind the "shredmore"moniker is that Bob/Appnut owned one of these machines years ago and it kept damaging his clothes. Frayed towels, holes in sweaters, and various other incidents of clothing wear were allegedly reported. I wasn't around on the forum then but he still speaks on it every so often. Others have had similar happen although I never have and I run my DD on high speed often. It's a mystery really why some people have the issue and others don't, but yes, constantly running everything at high speed, including items that can't really handle it, coupled with severe over-loading are practices that seem to exacerbate the shredding. But as I've said, I use high sspeed frequently and have not had clothing damage that I notice, but then again my wife and I have mostly sturdy cotton clothes so that might have something to do with it. I repeat, I don't think anyone has really figured out why some suffer this unfortunate problem and others don't.
