The Challenge Combination 2436A Paper Jogger: A Review
Challenge manufacturers some excellent paper joggers for use in a variety of work environments. For high-output ones, their Combination 2436A jogger is worth a look since it can jog more than 500 sheets at a time. Here’s a look at what this machine can do as well as some advice as to whether it’s worth the money.
- The 2436A can jog a stack of paper that’s up to 4 inches tall. That’s well over 500 sheets of paper since a ream is about 2.5” ta11. Since this jogger can process so many sheets at once, it would be a great for high-output businesses and organizations.
- This jogger has a tray that’s 24” x 36”, so you’ll be able to work with large sizes of paper without any problems. If you want to work with smaller sheets (i.e. letter-sized ones), you can purchase a tray divider to make it easier. When you use the divider, you’ll be able to process more paper at once which is very convenient.
- The position of the tray can be easily adjusted depending on what paper you’re working with. For example, the tray can either lay flat or it can tilt by up to 45 degrees. Just play around with the settings until you find one that’s right for you.
- The 2436A is equipped with Challenge’s Dial-A-Jog that allows you to utilize the right settings for your documents. This feature really helps you have control over the entire process.
- None of the Challenge Combination joggers come with stands, which is disappointing since these devices are so big. For example, the 2436A measures 14.5” (height) x 37” (width) x 25” (depth), so it’s obviously going to take up a lot of room on your work surface. Challenge does make stands for these devices and they even have casters on them (a must since this device weighs 145 pounds), but they’re sold separately.
- This jogger is durably built and is constructed from both wood and metal. You can expect to be able to get a lot of use out of this device, so it’s a good choice if you need something that can handle heavy-duty use.
- The 2436A isn’t too expensive so it will probably appeal to people who are looking to save some money. It comes with a one-year warranty so you can get any problems taken care of.
Overall, the Challenge Combination 2436A is a great jogger and it would be a good choice for any business or organization that needs a machine that can handle a lot of paper at once. This device can handle very large sets of a paper in addition to smaller ones, which makes it very versatile. It’s just disappointing that this machine’s two important features– the tray divider and the stand – are sold separately because their presence are essential to this jogger’s performance. Nonetheless, the 2436A is worth a look, especially if you don’t mind paying extra for the divider and stand.
