  • Quiet and economical shredder
Works well and very quietly. Adequate for modest amounts of shredding. The shredded bits are tiny and thus very secure.

  • This is a fabulous shredder
This is a great shredder. It was highly reviewed on NY Times Wirecutter and I can definitely see why. Cuts paper into tiny pellet sized bits. No way anyone can find your personal info anywhere. Great features, for example it turns off when bin is full so you won't overfill and burn it out, it is much quieter than our old shredder and I can remove the shredded paper cannister easily from the front to empty. I don't wheel the base around, so that feature isn't really useful to me, but I really like that the shredded paper cannister is easily removed and reinstalled from the front. I've had it a bit over a month and have put it through its paces doing my annual file clearing. I always made sure to only run 1 bin full of shredding and then let it rest for at least 1/2 hour. Rated as 8 sheet shredder, but I found that heavier weight paper needs to be limited to 4 pieces at a time. Not a deal breaker for me, as it does such a good job overall. Went through a ton of paper shredding and it is still going strong. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Works well, but automatic sensor stopped working after 11 months
Overall this shredder works great and is easy to move around. However after almost a year the automatic sensor stopped working properly. It automatically turns on a few seconds after switching on the unit, and doesn't stop at all after the shredding is done and I have to switch it off manually. I've tried cleaning the intake and greasing the shredder but still no improvements. ... show more

  • GREAT so far!
My Amazon paper shredder came very quickly, was very well packaged and has worked beyond my expectations . . . thus far! I've only just begun using this product, but there are many features I love about it. It may be a bit on the flimsy side, but with proper use and care, it should last a long time. What I love most is how fine it shreds the paper. You can shred a lot and not fill up the basket . . . at least as compared to my last one that was also a cross-cut shredder. The other features I like is the compact size, the front window viewer, the fact that it has wheels to easily move when vacuuming as there are always a few shredding pieces around the unit when you empty it, the many indicater lights and overall appearance and design. I only hope it gives me many years of service as I really like it so far. I think if I keep it clean inside and out and lubricate it every month or so, it should last a long time. ... show more

  • Perfect home shredder
The media could not be loaded. I bought the 8-sheet model about a year and a half ago for about $75. It makes your sheets of paper into tiny little bits. The bits are really small, most pieces have one or two letters on them at most. I doubt even CSI would be able to reassemble my secret documents. It's a huge improvement over my old strip shredder. It'll do 8 sheets at a time but it doesn't seem happy about it. I usually keep it to 2-4, and feed more in as needed. It's pretty small (small office garbage can sized). The wheels are nice if you ever need to give it a nudge. The bin holds a great deal of paper, and it has a window on it so it's easy to tell when it's getting full. Once it is full, the shredder will stop working until you empty it. But it's best to empty it before it gets completely full, otherwise the contents tend to spill out everywhere. In addition to single sheets of paper, it will also shred thin cardboard pretty well (shredded cardboard makes a great shipping material). Problems? Not really. It generates a lot of dust, but I'm sure that's true of all shredders. It could be a bit quieter, but it's not bad. I'm sure the more powerful models are better, faster, maybe even quieter. But right after I got this, I shredded about 5 bags' worth of random bills, financial statements, top secret documents, manifestos, and master plans that had been hanging around. It took a while but it did the job. I'm not sure you can get excited about something like a shredder, but this one is pretty good. ... show more

  • It shreds and it's super quiet
Love this shredder. I got it and tested it with old CDs, credit cards and lots of paper. It shreds through it like a warm knive through butter.
