  • Great shredder, easy to use and empty shredded material.
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
Works well. I had no problem shredding a credit card or 6 pages of paper. It hasn't ever jammed on me. It isn't super fast or super slow, just average. It is faster than my 8 year old printer. I am very satisfied with my purchase. It is small enough to fit under my desk and easy to empty the shredded paper. ... show more

Size: 6 Sheet Color: Black
Works great! Just stopped working after 11 years. Bought early 2017 for $30. Not a huge increase at and quite the bang for my buck for 11 years with no problems. Size is fine. Fits under my desk. Cross shredding important for me and simple operation. Ordering another one right now for $33. I am a happy camper! ... show more

  • Good at its core, hard to handle Good at its core, hard to handle
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
The paper shredder itself is great and works really well. The compact size is perfect, cuts through the paper easily as long as you stick to the max number of sheets, and has lots of options. My only complaint is that the handle only lifts the shredder but not the bucket. Because it’s compact, I leave it in a closet and carry it out when I need it. Rather than just grabbing the handle like a plastic grocery bag, you have to lift the whole unit like a paper grocery bag. Suggestion to Amazon to have an option to clip the bucket to the shredder so it can all be carried with the handle. ... show more

  • Reliable Everyday Shredder That Handles More Than Expected
Size: 8 Sheet Color: White
This shredder has been very reliable and easy to use right out of the box. The setup was straightforward and the design is intuitive, so there was no learning curve needed to start using it. It consistently handles paper well and often performs better than the advertised 8 sheet capacity when feeding in standard documents. I’ve also been impressed that it easily cuts through plastic cards without any issue. One limitation is that it will not cut through metal cards, but that is expected and not a drawback for normal home or office use. Overall, it is a solid, dependable shredder that does exactly what it is supposed to do with no complications. ... show more

  • sturdy fast and quiet, good all-around purchase
Size: 200 Sheet Color: Black
this machine is a work horse! fast, quiet and sturdy- worked nonstop for six hours straight. However, we couldn’t use it for every type of paperworkit’s a bit finicky. If you have paperwork with partial pages like check stubs, it gets confused and will stop working. The crosscut works well- is a thorough and very secure method. ... 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
