  • Amazing little compact shredder! So happy I chose this one!
Style: 4-Sheet CrossCut - Original model
This is a great, small shredder for home use. It only shreds 4 pages at a time so I was considering buying one that could shred 8 or more pages but they are all too big. This one is just the right size so I don't mind only shredding 4 pages at a time bc it works great and doesn't take up much space at all. I've included a photo of it next to one of the medium sized, 32 ounce gatorade bottles so that you can see just how compact it is in comparison. Even though it isn't huge, it holds a lot. I don't have to empty it as often as I thought I would have just by looking at it. I was pleasantly surprised by how much the small basket actually holds. I just shredded a whole shopping bag of old bills and documents to test it out and it didn't overheat at all and got it done super fast! It looks great, I love the clear basket with the little pockets on the side for holding your pens, the tool to clear paper jams that it comes with or anything else that you want to store there. By the way, I haven't had to use the paper jam tool yet and I just shredded a pile of stuff. I'm so glad I went with the more compact, smaller model shredder bc it works just as well as any office shredder that I've used. The only negative is that you have to fold pages vertically before inserting them though bc the paper slot isn't as wide as a standard sheet of paper. That doesn't matter though bc it shreds so quick and efficiently that folding some pages doesn't add much time to the task. If you want a cute, compact, efficient shredder for your home office or for just normal, everyday use then get this one. It's perfect! I will update my review if I run into any issues. ... show more

  • nice package
Style: 8-Sheet StripCut/CD without Basket
This works very well as a light duty shredder for home use. It is compact and takes up very little storage space when not in use and has an expandable bar which allows it to be used with different size receptacles.

  • Somewhat flimsy, but does work!
Style: 8-Sheet StripCut/CD without Basket
This was our replacement strip shredder for the not-working Woolsche shredder we bought & returned last week. So far, so good. It isn’t real sturdy, but the pull out bar does allow it to fit the blue recycle basket we already have. Once adjusted, it is stable. I shredded up to 5 sheets easily. After that it was groaning and slow. I thought it might die, so will only do max of 5 sheets at once. Haven’t tried cd or credit card yet so cant say if it works or not. Since I shred daily after i go through the mail, i dont expect too much trouble. It does seem that it gets hot quickly, so I doubt it would hold up to 30-40 min of steady document grinding. For that you may want a sturdier, more expensive shredder. This is fine for our light household needs. Very affordable. Delivered quickly, came in great shape. We are pleased with this purchase and hope it lasts at least a few years. Prior shredder lasted 12 yearrs! Doubt we will see that kind of durability with this one. ... show more

  • Does the job and compact

I like the small size as it takes up less storage space and it isn't as heavy as others.

  • Small, compact, but broke pretty quickly
Style: 4-Sheet CrossCut - Original model
This shredder is actually quite good, and can shred a fair bit of paper before overheating. I've used it about once a week since I got it, but after three months I noticed cracks all along the casing of it. It still works but it feels like a bit of a risk using it knowing it might crack at any moment. Can't say I'd recommend it if it just cracks that easily, but it wasn't exactly expensive either. I tried getting product support but got no response to email, nor was there support for the shredder cracking or becoming damaged. ... show more

  • First Impression: So far so good..
Style: 4-Sheet CrossCut - Original model
The media could not be loaded. I just received this shredder and I love it for my needs. I have never had a shredder before, but have the occasional personally identifiable item that needs to be destroyed. I used to rip those up manually, which is fine, but doesn't work for more than a few pages and is pretty inaccurate. I am in medicine, and now have on my person, notes about patients when I come home at the end of the day, and would like to destroy these notes without having to take them back to the hospital and use their shredders. This will be perfect for that, with no more than 2 or 3 pages a day + junk mail etc. I prefer the small size because I find the big shredders hideous. This I can hide away and bring out when I need it. I posted some pictures of relative size of the shredder. It has a clear bin which shows if it is full. It turns on, but only operates when paper is fed through the slot. It must be folded along the long axis, otherwise it does not fit. I haven't tried to test the full power of this device because I have no need to, I am not bulk shredding. The resulting pieces are nice and small and only the most diligent of criminal would attempt to reconstruct these papers.. In the manual it states that one should "never shred plastic, continuous forms, anything with adhesive including labels and envelopes, newsprint or any hard materials. while this shredder will shred staples, it is recommended that you remove them whenever possible in order to extend the life of your shredder. only shred credit cards by feeding them vertically within the designated area. never feed more than on credit card at a time." I will update this review as I continue to use this product! ... show more
