It works well for the type of shredding we need in our small community.

For the money this shredder does a great job. It’s really quite when shredding

We haven't used it yet & that's the reason for only 4 stars. But the set-up is perfect for ease-of-use. The top slides apart at the insertion track to reveal the controls. The bin is easily pulled forward to empty it so you don't have to lift the blades & motor. Should be easy to maintain.

Loud and not very durable. First one stopped after 2 days and got a free replacement. The 2nd one stopped working after about a month. Waste of money.

Basic. That's what I needed. No frills. Light duty. That's what I got. Does not impress with its power (but it could be hiding it's strength that I haven't put to the test yet) and you have to either leave it on or operate the power switch conveniently on top every time you use it. Very bright green LED when it is powered. Possible double duty as a night light.

IT WSN'T WHAT I THOUGHT. You get what you pay for. It is a cheap product all around. It can only handle very little shredding.

Hard to put in the paper to be shredded. Hard to lift off the top to empty the bottom half out.
