Great Addition to Our Home Office
on May 28, 2024
Posted by: V.B.
from Randolph
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own a small business and work 100% from home. That means that all my printing mailing and other office responsibilities are done at home. For years I’ve used a small (but reliable) paper shredder for disposing of my confidential documents. But when given an opportunity to try out the Staples 24 Sheet Cross Cut Commercial Shredder I jumped at the chance. My first impression was — do I really need such a big device taking up space in my home office? I will say that after a few weeks of use yes I do! We’re just coming off of tax season and while our paperwork is now digitally stored we’re left with all the hard copies that we had to print and use for filing. We were able to shred them all in a matter of minutes. This paper shredder has no issues handling over 20 sheets at a time which is wonderful. The bin capacity is generously sized so it means we don’t have to constantly stop and empty it. My husband and I both used it to get a sense of its capabilities and ease of use and both agree that at the price point this is a great buy. There’s no learning curve here — just plug in and use it — making it very user friendly and super efficient in its small shred size. If you have a business that regularly needs to safely dispose of confidential documents I highly recommend the Staples 24 Sheet Cross Cut Commercial Shredder as an addition to your office space.

Staples 15 Sheet Cross Cut Shredder
on May 28, 2024

from Centreville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples 15 Sheet Cross Cut Shredder is a quality product. We have always wanted a shredder for all the papers that pile up but every model we’ve tried have been too small and could only shred one page at a time; not worth the time! This model quietly shreds multiple papers at a time including credit cards. If there is a jam the shredder will stop and you can reverse the job to release the document. We’ve been keeping it in the garage but it is on wheels and small enough to be stored anywhere. It has thermal overload protection that prevents overheating and a sensor that lets you know when the bin is full. There is a safety door that covers the slot for shredding but the machine does have an automatic start as soon as you open it. This feature does cause some concern when you have curious little ones. We keep it unplugged for this reason. Overall we like the product; it keeps our countertops clutter free! We would recommend it!

Shreds perfectly
on May 27, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shredder does the job and it does it well. It has a modern and sleek look that makes it fit perfectly in any office space. It shredded all the documents I threw in there and I love how it is also capable of shreddding paper clips and CDs/DVDs. It has a lot of strength and I haven’t experienced any jams at all. The bin capacity is a good size so it’ll be able to handle a lot of shredding before needing to be dumped which is very convenient. The sound of the shredding is pretty minimal and it isn’t anything crazy loud. It’s so easy to use. Just plug it in and it was ready to shred! Totally recommend for those needing a good shredder for the office!

Happy with this

from Kent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I already had a shredder at home but it was nosy and overheated so quickly. I keep the shredder under my desk and do a fair amount of shredding on a monthly basis. My favorite part about this one is how quiet it is I was really surprised! This shredder was able to be operated while my toddler napped which is a plus for me. The bin capacity is pretty average but for a home shredder it does the job just fine. I also like that there is a cover the slides over the top when not in use it keeps curious little fingers and dust out of the blades. Very happy with this product!

Quick Efficient Shredder
on May 27, 2024
Posted by: L.N.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so pleased to have the Staples 12 Sheet Cross Cut Shredder for use in my home. It’s slim unobtrusive and fits perfectly under the office desk. (It’s almost smaller than my office trash can.) My family shreds credit card insurance and a variety of other offers every week and this shredder has no problem cutting up the thicker paper used in the marketing materials and the accompanying faux credit cards. I appreciate being able to shred up to 12 sheets of paper at a time and the auto on/off option. Additionally the noise level is acceptable. Of course it has to make noise to do its job but I have had other shredders that are far noisier. The capacity is just right for my family as I typically only need to empty it every few weeks. I would highly recommend the Staples 12 Sheet Cross Cut Shredder to anyone looking for a light use shredder!

Great Shredder
on May 27, 2024
Posted by: C.S.
from St. Louis
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great shredder for my home office. I really like the size it is big enough to do full sheets without having to first fold or cut them but it is also not too big and bulky to fit in our compact home office space. It seems pretty average on how loud it is when shredding materials. I am pleased with how completely the paper is shredded the blades do a great job. I would definitely recommend this product for anyone looking for a home office shredder that is easy to use and does a good job shredding.

Gets the job done

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staples 15 Sheet Cross Cut Shredder is a pretty sweet shredder. It takes care of 15 pieces of paper easily and not too loudly. There is a great safety feature of top that might have saved my toddler his finger.. I love that it can additionally shred CDs/DVDs including old licenses and credit cards ( I never know what to do with old ones) The bin is a very good size so you don't feel like you are constantly emptying it. However the shredder itself is not small so you definitely need to think about where to put it. Overall it is a keeper for me. I like the design and the efficiency.

This is an excellent mean eating paper machine

from Mesa
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This paper shredder was very impressive I was hesitant and did not think it was going to function to it’s full capacity as I read about. I was totally shocked at how well it eats thick stacks of paper and shreds them up it took old credit cards with no problem and stacks of paper with staples and paper clips ! I kept this shredder by my desk area I was the only one primarily using it but I sure did get lots of documents shredded up that were long overdue. The only thing I was not too crazy about was the bag inserted to hold the shredded paper I felt it was more of a hassle to deal with the bag so I discontinued using it I just remained dumping the shreds after the bin was full into a trash bag. Otherwise say less then the best about this handy tool it’s easy to move around and the slide feature on top makes it easy to turn on and off when using it or not in use the shred size is perfect and keeps for less mess and also still feeling safe n secure that no information can be read. The bin size holds so much capacity and you can even press the shreds down a couple more times to compact the capacity inside the bin this was a great item to review for stellar and much needed in my home I have been through a few shredders and this one will last a long time it’s heavy duty and has a commercial feel to it while it’s in the comfort of my own home.
