This shredder shreds all! From old plastic health insurance cards to 8 sheets of paper this shredder shreds! I was able to shred through plastic cards and eight sheets of paper with ease. I did not have any issues with the shredder clogging. I would highly recommend

I have tested this product to shed paper from 1 page up to 8 pages. My first impression is that the unit is running smoothly with low noise. I like to paper that was shedded cut into cross and small pieces which is the increase the security and difficult if someone tries to restore to the original. One observation that I want to bring up is that when shedding 6 or 7 pages depending on the thickness of papers I may hear the unit vrooming in louder sounds. With my experience of the previous shedder don't push the unit to the max. It may run now but soon it may show some difficulties and eventually stop working (just to take one single paper every time after the problem started to surface). The noise level of motor is much better than my previous model.

This is a nice compact shredder for occasional home or home office use. I diligently shred papers envelopes mailing labels prescription labels and other items that have personally identifiable information. I haven't used more than two sheets of paper at a time and the shredder works well. No jams no stopping mid-shred. It is a little louder than I expected but the process is quick. I like that the shredder is compact in size. It fits nicely under the small table I have my fax/scanner on next to my home office computer. This is not by any means a heavy-duty shredder. I use my Ativa for that. Overall this is a great small shredder for light use.

This shredder is the perfect size for a home office. The noise level was quite a bit less than expected. It shred several sheets of paper at a time with no issues. And it was quick to shred at a low noise level.

The auto-start function is a really great feature. The shredder only runs when the paper is in the slot thus preventing overheating. I also appreciate the quietness of the motor It is not whisper quiet but it is one of the quietest shredders I have ever encountered. And no matter how many sheets of paper I shredded and no matter how long I ran the shredder it never overheated. Unfortunately I found the paper slot to be a huge drawback as I could not get receipts to feed easily. The slot is thin and the angle is awkward. I also had an issue with sheets of paper getting caught in the middle of the slot forming a clump. This happened when using 6-8 sheets and it is an 8 sheet shredder.

This shredder would be perfect in a small home office or a dorm room. It shreds paper well. I have no worry that my info has been shredded beyond recognition. It does only take 8 pages at once and does not jam with staples. However if you put in 9 pages it will jam. Additionally the feeder is very thin: what you have to feed in has to be in a nice neat pile. IF you have more than a few pages to do it would take a long time. If you have a bigger shred job this is not for you. But if you have to shred a few pieces of mail a day this would be the right shredder for you.

Staples 8-Sheet Shredder is a compact and complete solution for private and sensitive shredding at home. I used it daily immediately shredding unwanted mail. I experienced no overheating or jamming when used as directed keeping the shredding to eight sheets or less. It was also quiet much less quiet than my household vacuum. The shredder does not have have wheels so you plug in close to an outlet or use an extension cord.

Overall the shredder is 5-star. It works great and officially shreds up to eight pages very well. It also smoothly shreds credit cards. The shredder also easily meets my requirements of continuous shredding without easily overheating. The bin also adequately meets my needs. The shredder also securely cross cuts into small short pieces for extra security. The shredder is also super safe. I would highly suggest buying this shredder.
