  • Shreds like a champ
Size: 24 Sheet Color: Black
This is a cool shredder that really shreds a bunch of papers at once. I love the shreds it makes, they are perfect for pet bedding, and the waste drawer holds a ton before you have to empty it. It has solidly great safety features and is easy to use. I appreciate that the buttons and readout messages are straightforward and I don't need to refer to the manual every time I turn it on or a message pops up. I've used it enough to make 4 giant garbage bags of shreds since it arrived, I had a backlog of papers that had been stacking up for months! And it's still going strong. I've needed to oil it twice with so much shredding, you can tell it's time to oil when it just starts feeling like it takes a half second more to shred. Glad I grabbed this, I love that I'm able to keep secure and repurpose our non-inky paper as bedding or mulch, it works great! Not too noisy, either! ... show more

  • Great Shredder — Works Smoothly and Feels Secure
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
This shredder works great and is very easy to use. It handles paper and cards smoothly without jamming, and the cross‑cut makes everything feel much more secure. Perfect size for home use and strong enough for regular shredding needs.

  • Effective and Affordable! Good Purchase!
Size: 8 Sheet Color: White
As someone who gets a lot of mail, I appreciate having this shredder. It meets my needs and works well. It said it could handle metal credit cards but actually had more difficulty than I expected when I needed to shred one of mine. The credit card was pretty thick though. Overall I like it and would recommend. The instructions say not to shred envelopes with the transparent, plastic address section but what’s the point of having a shredder if I still have to open an envelope that I know contains junk mail? Thankfully, the shredder still works well despite me breaking the rules lol ... show more

  • Reliable Compact Shredder That Helps Cut Down Clutter
Size: 8 Sheet Color: White
Fits perfectly under my desk and has been great for shredding documents. It’s not the quietest, but it’s not overly loud either, just something to keep in mind if you’re sitting close to it. The design is sleek and simple, so it doesn’t look bulky or out of place. The handle makes it easy to lift the shredder off the bin, and it blends in nicely with the overall design. It shreds paper fairly quickly and hasn’t jammed on me so far. The card shredder has also been a huge help for getting rid of old credit cards and similar items. It also holds a good amount of paper, so it takes a while before you need to empty it. Overall, It’s been really helpful for clearing out a lot of paper clutter. A couple small things I would improve: the bin could use a bit of weight, since the top can feel a little top-heavy when removing or putting it back on. It would also be nice if it could shred more than 8 sheets at a time. Overall, it works well, gets the job done, and I’m pretty satisfied. I don’t see myself needing to shop for another one anytime soon. ... show more

  • Works great out of the box!
Size: 8 Sheet Color: White
This is smaller than expected but perfect for my office. Much quieter than the old one I have which is twice the size. It is relatively quiet and did a good job shredding the papers I tested the machine with. Hope it lasts. Some reviews said it doesn’t so I got the 4 year extended warranty from Asurion at the time of purchase. ... show more

  • great price unexpected speed and shreds paper to very small size
Size: 18 Sheet Color: Black
better than one i paid $250 for years ago at staples. it really does like 18 sheets at a time i kept feeding it didnt get clogged once. however if you have a lot to shred when the basket wiht the window looks like its getting full id advise to pull the bucket out and clean the blades bc otherwise bucket will fill and prevent you from pulling it out. i like that it doesnt stop you like my old one and make you dump it but you have to stop before its too full. it cuts smaller peices than my old one. which is better for security. its really a great product and its soooo fast. if you like to shred your documents and mail so someone doesnt get your info from the garbage and try to steal your identity or get into your accounts. its a no brainer. i never thought it would shred so fast so small. impressed. especially for the price ... show more

  • Amazon Shredder Review
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
Purchased as a gift and works wonderfully. My spouse receives a lot of junk mail, especially for credit cards, so I was looking for something small that could handle a bit of everything, and this little guy does a great job! It can be a bit noisy when in use, but it is small and quite durable for the affordable price. I would recommend this to others, and I would happily purchase this again! ... show more

  • Perfect shredder for home or small office use
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
I needed to buy a new shredder after burning out the motor on the last one we had (yes, it was old, I had a big bag of papers to get rid of, and should've known better!). The Amazon's Choice icon for this one caught my eye, and the discounted price and good reviews had me dropping it in my cart right away. This economical shredder is super for quickly shredding old credit cards and expired insurance or membership cards that might have personal info embedded in them, even though it handles only one at a time. It's noisy, but efficient, and has overload and overheat lights to warn when the 3 minutes of shred time is up. My main problem is probably more operator error than not--I tried to shred 4 pages of 8" x 11" papers, but they kept getting pulled over to one side, which then partially jammed the shredder blades. I still had the same problem if I didn't hold onto the very top of the papers with a couple of fingers to be sure they didn't scrunch up, and since it shreds faster with fewer pages, I usually just do 2 pages at a time. The shredder part is impressively sturdy, and fits well on top of the basket; the handle is a nice feature for picking it up to move the whole unit. I definitely recommend this handy shredder for not just the security, but also the quality. ... show more
