  • Great shredder for the price
Size: 8 Sheet Color: White
We. Needed a new shredder. I over stuffed my old shredder and we could not get it to work. This is a great shredder, it works great. Easy to use and easy to unload to empty the shredded paper. I highly recommend this shredder. I give it a five star rating. It arrived very quickly.

  • The Best Shredder Yet!
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
This is an honest review of the Amazon Basics 8-Sheet Cross-Cut Paper Shredder that I have been using for about 9 months now. It replaced an older Amazon Basics 6-Sheet Paper Shredder. Pros: I really like this paper shredder as Amazon has made numerous updates from the previous design that really make this model stand out. Cross-cutting the paper is far better than a straight cut when cutting up sensitive information. This unit is an 8-sheet and has plenty of power, though I rarely do more than 2 or 3 sheets at a time. The size of the can is a standard size that easily accommodates most personal shredding. It chops paper and credit cards with ease. I also like how they added a handle, making it easy to dump, along with a window so you know when it is full. I haven’t had any issues with mine overheating or stopping. In terms of the internal parts, the shredder has had no issues. Opportunities: None. It appears Amazon has listened to its customers and improved significantly on prior designs. Overall: This is an excellent paper shredder for home use. ... show more

  • Small, but LOUD paper shredder
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
Very small, but LOUD paper shredder. Does the job and for the price I guess I can’t complain. Just very very loud. Easy to assemble and use.

  • Great little shredder
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
Came quickly, works fine. It replaces the one I had that was a little larger and stopped working because I left it on for days, by mistake.

  • Buy it already!
Size: 8 Sheet Color: Black
This works perfect! I have had a collection of credit cards that have been expired for years but just never tossed... my husband gladly shredded them all for me with ease! I have only had one jam and that was what I believe to be user error because my husband had put too many papers in at once. I feel like this was a quality shredder and will hold up well for years to come! The top part is a little heavy but if you hold it by the handle when you remove it from the bottom it's really not an issue. I do find the noise level to be a little louder than I would like but I usually just lay the things I need shredded on top and wait for everyone to be awake to use it! My kids enjoy seeing what is new to shred LOL. I will say now that i've caught up the things I had accumulated to shred I don't usually do more than 1 or 2 pages at once, but when I first got it I did do probably 4 or 5 pages at once. I know the capacity is pretty good because it never jammed on me when I did that! I would recommend this to anyone thinking about getting a shredder and composting it after! My garden has really enjoyed them! ... show more

  • Great price / easy to set up and use.
Size: 8 Sheet Color: White
This compact shredder is easy to set up and use. (No set-up. Just unwrap it from the protective plastic bags and set the actual shredder on top of the bin, go through the safety precautions / “ directions” and you are ready to go). There is an on /off and an auto, which initiates the shredding once paper is inserted. It takes up to 6 pages so it’s great for shredding sensitive documents and mail. With the handle on the shredder portion, you can remove the top from the bin and empty the shredded paper. No wheels but with the size of the bin you don’t need them. States credit cards can be used but I haven’t tried that yet. Power is decent, can definitely hear the motor running. A little loud (for the few seconds at a time it’s running.). Not bothersome Great price for necessary household item. ... show more
