[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently recieved a staples 150 micro cut shredder and I can’t begin to tell you how impressed I am with this machine. To add a little backstory I was the victim of identity theft a few weeks after I caught someone rummaging around my garbage can stealing my garbage. So I needed a machine that would shred my documents into small unreadable pieces. I started with another model but was not Impressed with the shred size so I had to upgrade to the staples 150 shredder. Since the change all my worries of having someone put the pieces together & get the information has subsided bc the shred size is so small it wouldnt be possible. The Staples 150 micro shredder is powerful enough to easily handle a full families demands as I have 5 members in my famlily who use the shredder. The bin size is proportionate for a family of 5s waste & could easily handle a few more members if need be. The shredders small enough to keep in the office beside the desk withoufjt bringing any attention to itself. The speed of other shredders pale in comparison to the staples 150 cut. It offers power and speeds that are rarely needed but always wanted. For these reasons I love this shredder & I highly recommend you just spend the money to get the best & the staples 150 micro cut shredder is by far the best I’ve ever worked with.

Good office basic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first shredder. I missed a "quick start guide " but it really only took two minutes to set up and read the instructions out of the box. Within minutes I was able to shred 850 workbook pages. It easily shredded the laminated cardstock cover and the itty bitty pieces are so minuscule I'm confident that my sensitive documents would be safely shredded. The 850 pages did basically fill up the bin so if I were shredding for the 20 minute maximum I'd have to have a larger garbage handy. It's smaller enough and clean-looking: I would eventually slide it under my office desk easily but for now it stays in my broom closet (away from curious toddler hands). I do wish it had a place to grip at the safety slide top and an extra safety feature to be more childproof. All in all it covers my checklist for home/family shredding.

Great personal shredder

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great shredder to have in a home office or for personal use. Great size bin capacity to get a lot done before worrying about emptying! Very simple to use and easy to operate pretty much just plug in and shred. Wasn’t too loud but wasn’t the quietest either I would compare it to the noise level of a small vacuum. Overall we liked it and helped us safely shred some documents.

Shredder for in home use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Staples 10-Sheet Micro-Cut Personal Shredder as an incentive to review the product. Overall I am impressed with the quality of the machine. The ability to shred 10 pieces of paper or mail is very efficient. The mechanical crosscut shredder part appears very stout and sharp. The bin capacity is more than adequate. I can shred a whole stack of papers in just a few minutes and not completely fill the bin. It was easy to pull from the box easy to set up and easy to operate. I like the feature that covers the shredder opening when I am not using it. I keep the shredder next to my desk in my office and it fits perfectly. It has wheels that allow me to move it across the room to the printer. I like that it is not too loud. I also like that when you overwhelm the feeder you can easily unblock it by reversing the direction of the shredder.

Excellent Shredder

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love this shredder! Would highly recommend for anyone looking for an at home shredder. Pros: It is very quiet I am able to shred documents while my baby sleeps in the next room. It cuts everything so tiny I have zero worry anyone could get important information from it. I love that it is on wheels so I can store it under my desk and easily pull it out when I need to shred. It has an easy empty bin that you don’t have to lift the heavy shredding part off to empty. It shreds 10 pieces of paper at a time and can shred cards. Cons: it has a 5 minute run time before needing to rest. This has never been an issue for me however could be if it is for business use. Because of this I recommend it for personal at home use only.

Perfect for home office

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to test out the Staples 12 Sheet Micro Cut Shredder. This is a huge upgrade from the 5-sheet shredder I had. Out of the box there is minimal setup required. The wheels need to be attached at the bottom and the lid placed onto the top of the shredder canister. What I like is that this is a micro-cut shredder. I’ve never owned one before and the micro-cutting feature is nice so I don’t have to worry about someone piecing together sensitive information. To start shredding one would have to slide the top back and it will be ready to shred. The shredder motor starts on and there is a blue light indicating that. I would have liked to see an on/off button implemented into the shredder after you open the lid for more safety. There are also two accessible buttons to bring the paper back up or down in case there is a jam. There are wheels for easy mobility and it is easy to take to another room. The capacity is a whopping 5 gallons and there is a clear window where you can see the shredded material. Overall a good shredder with a large capacity that can handle several pages at a time. Credit cards shred with no difficulty. Good for personal home use or someone who may work from home.

Perfect For Small Business Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall Impressions and Efficiency: After using this 12-sheet capacity shredder in my home office I must say it performs admirably. Compared to my 15-year-old shredder it has similar speed and performance efficiently handling multiple sheets at once without a hitch. This consistency in speed and functionality was impressive. Bin Capacity: The bin capacity of this shredder is more than sufficient for regular home office use. The fine shred it produces can be easily compacted allowing for extended use without frequent emptying. This is a significant improvement over older models that often required more frequent maintenance. Placement and Ease of Use: I kept this shredder in my home office and its compact size fits perfectly without taking up too much space. It's very easy to use with straightforward controls and minimal setup required. The design is user-friendly ensuring that even those who are not particularly tech-savvy can operate it with ease. Noise Level: Regarding noise while it’s not whisper-quiet the shredder's sound level is more than acceptable. It's quieter than a vacuum cleaner and I found it comfortable enough to use without ear protection (unlike when I vacuum). For those particularly sensitive to noise using earplugs might be beneficial but in my experience it's not necessary. Overall this shredder meets all my expectations for a home office environment combining efficiency capacity and ease of use into a compact and reliable device.

Love the wheels

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples 20-sheet Micro-Cut Commercial Shredder is impressively easy to use. Being a stay-at-home mom and running a small business from home we use a shredder a few times a month. At first glance it is apparent that this shredder is built to be very sturdy and heavy-duty. Another great first impression of this shredder came from the wheels making it mobile and easy to move around my home office and store under the counter out of the way when not in use! I love this feature as I don’t have a permanent place to store it. Having kids we have also loved the safety feature of the sliding top cover to ensure that little hands or unnecessary items get into the paper feed entry slot. When using the shredder it showed to be very efficient and easy to use. I was impressed by how many documents it could handle at one time while also being able to shred things like credit cards it does the job of a commercial heavy-duty shredder without taking up space or looking like a commercial heavy-duty shredder. After shredding the bin capacity was very convenient holding enough that we didn’t have to continuously empty it. Overall I have been very happy with how this shredder has handled some of my shredding jobs. So far I haven't noticed any cons. I’m excited to use this come tax season and would recommend it to anyone looking for an upgrade!
