Default How well does a 59M shredder work?

I have a deal working for a 59M chipper /shredder working but have never seen one in operation and was wondering just how well they really work. I have a big DR chipper but that is only a chipper, not a shredder, it doesn't do much for leaves except blow them out whole at a high rate of speed. The DR is a great machine, it will gobble up a 4" oak branch like it was balsa wood but when it gets to the leaves it spits them out whole. I have a whole pile of chipped branches and leaves that I would like to grind up into usable mulch.

Never thought much of mine, so I gave it to my son.
I cracked some corn for the chickens once.
It's just a hammer mill.
With leaves it will do ok but it is not a chipper for other than small twigs.
I find my deck with a mulch plug does about the same job shredding/chopping sticks/leaves.
Google 59m chipper/shredder, there is a guy running one on yer tube

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
