Effective micro cuts and works quickly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What was your overall impression of this shredder? How efficient was it? What did you think of the document and bin capacity? How many people used this shredder? Where did you keep it? How easy was it to use? What did you think of the shred size? I received this Staples brand 150 sheet micro cut shredder and immediately started using it. My husband is adamant that we do not throw away anything that has our names and address on it. He usually saves it up and burns it but spring in the desert means high winds and high fire danger so no burning. This shredder arrived just in time! I had an old box full of mail and magazines that needed to go away! This shredder handled everything we threw at it. We put through regular mail magazines that we ripped apart plastic cards about the thickness of credit cards and pretty much anything else that we could find. We literally sat in our kitchen (which is where we unboxed the shredder and found the nearest plug) for two hours and got rid of our burn box and whatever else we could find. We had one problem when we first put in a magazine and it was just too thick. It jammed up about a quarter of the way in. We were able to reverse it and pull the magazine out. From there we ripped the magazine apart into smaller sections and it went through just fine. The issue was resolved quickly. The only other issue I had was that we struggled to get it to turn on when we needed it another time. It turns out that the center piece that you would lift up to clear a jam was not fully in place and the machine would not turn on because of that. Once it was snapped back into it's correct spot the machine would power on. I would have preferred that the machine still power on but give me some type of error or other hint as to what could fix the problem instead of making me spend 10 minutes fiddling with everything else before we figured it out.

Efficient and perfect for home office

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Stellar Panel for my home office paper shredder. This shredder is great and perfect for small spaces that still need a powerful and efficient paper shredder. As I work for a bank I am always in need of shredding highly confidential papers and documents and this was the perfect tool! It shred many many papers at a time and per day and gave me the ability to stop having to bring all of my papers to work with me on my office days to ensure of proper disposal. This was such a game changer to be able to have my own paper shredder in my home office! It’s the most powerful and largest shredded capacity I’ve seen for its size.

Good shredder

from Los Angeles
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shredder just works well! It can feed up to 10 sheets at a time which comes in handy! I work from home and accumulate quite a bit of sensitive information that needs to be eventually shredded. The micro cut is perfect for security as the pieces are so tiny. It has a window in the bin area where you can see how full it is. The bin is a decent size and easy to pull out to empty. I keep it under my desk where it is out of the way until needed. The wheels make it so easy to roll out. Noise level isn't too bad if used during the daytime but can be noticed by other members during quieter evening hours.

Great Basic Shredder
on May 25, 2024

from Chicago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a perfect basic light-duty shredder. It is well-constructed and relatively solid. It has a nice feature on the top of the shredder—there is a 'sliding' top that you have to slide to shred anything. When it is closed nothing can fall into the shredder accidentally. It is an efficient machine and the shred size is tiny so you don't have to empty it often (if you are using it a few times a day) maybe once per week. The bin capacity is large which is another feature I like. This model shreds up to ten sheets at once which is the perfect size for my office. I have a home office and keep the shredder beside my desk. It is a very easy machine to use. You slide the top and it is ready to use. It shuts off automatically after approximately five minutes. There is an on/off button if you prefer to use it that way but I find the slide top works great for me. This machine is just a bit noisy. However I wouldn't say this is a dealbreaker because it is reasonably priced and an excellent-performing machine.

Great personal shredder
on May 25, 2024
Posted by: G.P.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is a shredders dream. The machine itself is a bit heavy but also very sleek modern looking and most importantly durable. Set up was simple and I didn’t have any issues with paper jamming. I shredded 8-10 sheets at a time with ease. The container that holds the shredded elements is big enough that you don’t have to empty it constantly (I’ve shred almost 300 documents without having to empty - you can see how full it’s getting from the small window in the front which is a plus). It’s compact so fits nicely in a small space near my workspace. The shredder is not very loud which is a definite plus. . I am very pleased with the overall efficiency of this product and would highly recommend it.

Excellent Shredder

from West Chester
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shredder is excellent! It truly handles up to 12 pieces of paper at one time. I have another shredder that says it handles 8 pieces at a time but it seems to struggle with 5. I love that it microcuts the paper for added security. It also does not overheat easily. I’ve shredded enough paper to fill the container over halfway full in one sitting and it never overheated. I also love that has wheels to move it wherever it’s needed.

Staples Shredder

from Ludington
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am delighted and impressed with this product. It was easily assembled and the instructions are simple. I tested it with a thick grocery bag folded up and it shredded it with ease. The shredder is quiet and has nice features such as casters a window in the bin and automatic start up and turn off. I will be using this product primarily at home for private documents but will also use it for unneeded paperwork from my classroom.

DOA but such a great option list

from Kentwood
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This had literally EVERYTHING I could ask for in a shredder. P4 shred level (HIPPA requirement) 100+ page shred count micro cut chew through paper clips basically anything I could throw at it AND $100 less than the closest competitor!! Sadly I could not get the unit to power on upon arrival. I am hoping to get the unit swapped out as this is an amazing deal for what it can do. I can already tell the bin will need to be emptied more often than I'd like but I'll take it at this price point.
