  • This thing is a beast!
Size: 10-Sheet CrossCut Color: Black
We needed a new shredder after our last one died from overuse. With the capacity to shred up to 10 pages of documents (vs 5 on out last one) this shredder chews up paper like there is no tomorrow in a lot less time than out previous. It also destroys credit cards and cd/dvd discs, which is a nice bonus. It is a cross-cut shredder, meaning material is shredding into strips which are then cut into short sections about an inch and a half long. This is not a mulch/confetti type shredder. It has three switch settings on it: Off, Auto, and Reverse, which are pretty self-explanatory. The auto is nice, as it means the shredder itself will not engage until paper is fed into it, which is a nice change from out last one which was either on or off with a reverse function. Also unlike our old shredder, which had an exposed opening into the shredder teeth, this unit has a "mail slot" like opening, meaning the paper is fed into a small opening which then goes into the cutters. I really like this feature as we have pets in our home and I don't have to worry about the shredder accidently being left on and someone getting a paw or tongue stuck in the shredder. This feature would be very good for anyone who has curious children that could accidently turn the shredder on as there is not enough space to stick fingers in. The unit itself is a good weight and it's definitely not flimsy. It's a bit awkward to carry or move around however, as the openings on the sides you see in the photo is where you can grab to remove the shredder portion from the receptacle. This is not a good place to grab to pick the whole unit; trust me.. it looked like I hosted Mardi Gras in my kitchen the first (and last) time I did that. There is a handle on the top of the unit which you can use to lift the shredder potion off too, though I prefer the two-handed lift from the sides myself. This is a good shredder at a good price (same type of unit was almost $30 more to buy it locally). I definitely recommend it for quality, price, and ease of use. ... show more

  • Love it!
Size: 8-Sheet CrossCut/3-min Run Time Color: Black
It has worked perfectly so far. No issues at all! I do remember something in the instructions stating that it's supposed to be oiled once a month had I have known that I would not have purchased it and I can't find the instructions so I don't know where I'm supposed to oil it or what kind of oil to use. So I guess for now I'll use it until it doesn't work but it would be great if someone from the company could send me a PDF file of the manual or send me instructions by email to tell me where I'm supposed to oil it and what kind of oil to use I do remember I'm supposed to oil it once a month ... show more

  • Great Shredder but Pricey
Size: 10-Sheet CrossCut Color: Black
I bought this shredder to replace an earlier Aurora shredder( AS1015CD ) which basically had identical functions as the AS1018CD. The CD/DVD shredding function has substantially improved over the AS1015CD. The CD/DVD/credit card pieces that came out of this shredder are even finer than the corresponding paper confetti and infinitely better than the 8 pieces( yes only 8 pieces and at times still attached )that came out of AS1015CD. So far, I have shredded paper, credit cards, and CDs with no major issue. Yes, the shredder makes horrible sounds when shredding CDs but it is normal and please stay calm. My typical shredding job is 200 to 300 sheets of 20 lb. 8-1/2 X 11 paper and the frequency is once per week. To date, the shredder has not over-heated at my utilization level( thanks to the improving ventilation design of the AS1018CD over AS1015CD ) and it has jammed only once( ironically by a single sheet of thicker paper but it resumed operation after I used the reverse function to undo the jam ). What I have not tried is AS1018CD's ability to shred 10 sheets in a single pass. I have tried 6 sheets and it worked, but I did not, do not and will not try 10 sheets for fear doing so may damage the tiny gears that drive the cutter block. If that happened, the shredder is gone. My AS1015CD was ruined that way. Except for the price tag for this shredder( I paid only $43 + tax for my AS1015CD compared to $79.98 for this shredder at Amazon.com ), I am very happy with my purchase thus far although the long term durability of AS1018CD remains to be seen. Also, lubricating the shredder block with cooking oil is a good idea and it helps the shredding function. Putting oil in an envelope and then feed it to the shredder is a low cost alternative to lubricant sheets that are available in the market. Just make sure the oiled envelope spans the entire length of the feed slot, otherwise some part of the cutter block will not be lubricated. If you cannot find an envelope that spans the entire feed slot width, you may have to feed a nummber of oiled enveloped along the width of the feed slot to ensure the entire cutting block has been lubicated. One last thing: after the oiled envelope was shredded, run the shredder on reverse for 30 to 60 seconds to spread the oil within the cutter block. Update( March 16, 2009 ): Jammed the second time over the weekend by acculmulated confetti on the cutter block. Operation resumed after using the reverse function. Recommend emptying or compacting confetti in the basket every 40 sheets of shredding. This shredder cuts regular paper staples like butter. No need to remove them from the papers before feeding to the shredder. ... show more

  • It survives where others failed
Size: 10-Sheet CrossCut Color: Black
I have been using this unit for several years now and it is, by a large margin, better than any other I've owned. The fact that it has lasted several years unimpaired is enough to convince me since I was going through lesser shredders on the average of one per year. Shredders work hard and puny 'home' home units are not worth the hassle -- buy a good one and use it for years. Tips? It can't hurt to lubricate the cutters using one of pre-made sheets or by simply squirting some lubricating oil onto a sheet of paper and running it through.Wishes? Well, a larger basket would obviate the need to empty it so often but having something the size of a regular office trash can is convenient in the home setting. [edit] After a number of years the shredder failed when presented with a data DVD -- the sort of thing that it handled easily in the beginning. The good news is that the failure point was a gear right off of the motor shaft and the manufacturer sells a replacement for $15 including postage. Replacement is dead simple and anybody with a Phillips screwdriver and enough sense to unplug an appliance before working on it can probably do the repair. Oh, wear a latex glove when handling the gear since it has a grease on it which will stay on your hand and be sure to smear some heavy-ish grease on the new gear to give it a chance. I'll still say that this is the best shredder I've owned and is well worth the price (including the repair part). ... show more
