    • Shredtastic!!
Size: 12 Sheet
This is one powerful compact shredding beast! Works just as described, so easy to set up and use its unbelievable. I shredded so many papers that I needed to dispose of, and this little bugger even shreds old credit cards! There is a spot right in the center of the feed where you place the card and zip, its shredded. Just amazing. Powerful enough to handle shredding multiple sheets at a time. Big enough to handle and hold lots of shredded paper, but compact enough to be able to stand right next to my printer. The window on the front is a big plus to see how full the bin is and when it needs to be emptied, which is so nice to have so I don't have to keep taking the top shredding component off to look inside to gauge if its too full. It has not jammed up, has not overheated, and continues to work perfectly. The top portion with the shredder fits perfectly on the bin and is not ridiculously heavy to take off when its time to empty the bin, so its easy to lift on and off without a fight. It is also not crazy loud like some shredders in the past. Instructions on how it functions are clear and easy to understand as well. I have nothing bad to say, and I am thrilled with how it looks and more importantly how it functions. ... show more

    • Shred it !
Size: 8 Sheet
I bought this Amazon brand shredder about 2 years ago as a replacement for an old one and it's performed very well. I've used it to shred up to six sheets of paper at once and it does so with absolutely no issues. This shredder is just as good as more expensive ones that I've owned in the past and I highly recommend it for others. ... show more

    • Works well but does overheat easily if batch shredding.
Size: 8 Sheet
Use daily. Works well for up to 6 sheets at a time. Works well for light daily use. Compact. But it does overheat easily if you have a large batch of papers or files to shred and so not practical for those. But then, so do all others of this style. Does work better than a larger, more expensive, self-feeding shredder i tried. Would buy again. Would’ve given 5 stars if it didnt overheat so quickly. ... show more

    • Small, had to return it
Size: 8 Sheet
Probably worked well, price was good. Too small and movers found my old one, so I returned it.

    • High quality cross cut shredding
Size: 12 Sheet
I really like this shredder. Well made, sturdy, great cross-cut shredding. Easy to navigate the clearly marked switches. Not loud. Note: It shreds 12 pages at a time, so if you need a bigger shredder than that, you'll need to look for a different one. Love it so much, I'm now looking fwd to shredding in my home office!😊 ... show more

    • Works Great
Size: 12 Sheet
This one works great, is less noisy than the others I bought and returned, and the bucket is bigger. I have been using it for several days for several hours during the day at various times since I cleaned out old paperwork that I found in a bin. I have had no problems with it. I had purchased previously two other cheaper Amazon Basic shredders and they didn't work very well; kept jamming. So I paid more and got a very good shredder; I am happy with it. Just an FYI - if you don't already do this. I put a heavier bag in the basket to collect the shredded paper since I recycle the paper. The bag is like one that would come on a pillow. Then I can just pick up the bag and put it in the bigger bag I take to recycle (kitchen garbage bag) instead of picking up the bucket to empty it. ... show more

    • Had for a year, put it through it's paces, still working
Size: 8 Sheet
It does get jammed from time to time, mostly from me being lazy and putting too many sheets in at once. Otherwise, it's been working great and I use it daily. Shredded papers and the occasional credit card, no problems.
