Good for light to moderate use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great shredder for low to moderate use. It is quiet shreds well and has several features that make shredding quick and safe. My favorite features are the cover for the blades and a crevice. The crevice keeps fingers away from the sharp blades but also helps hold sheets of paper straight so the paper does not twist and clog the blades. However because the crevice is deep the machine can only shred the standard 8.5x11inches paper or smaller. It also can only handle about 12 sheets of paper or less. I was still able to easily shred some thick credit cards that contained metal in them. Overall I was happy with the power of the shredder. Although we never experienced a clog the top of the machine can be lifted up to give access to the blade. The shredder also has a reverse function if needed. The capacity of the machine works for low to moderate use. It would need to be emptied a lot if it were used heavily and would need frequent breaks to cool down if used heavily. We never had it over heat for us. This machine has worked well in our home office. We have been able to shred our sensitive documents easily. When not in use we unplug it and slide the lid over the blades. We do have small children in our home and unfortunately the lid does not lock. For this reason we are mindful to put it away out of reach. The machine has four small wheels which can roll well on hard floors. These wheels would be too small to roll on a carpet or rug. We like to be able to roll it under a table where our children don’t have easy access to it. It’s a great shredder for an office. It would not work for heavy use but does well for light to moderate use. We love that it handles heavy duty tasks of thick credit cards and staples without clogging. Overall we have been happy with it and would recommend it.

Just what I needed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shredder is awesome!! The shredder was super easy to unbox plug in and set up. I was confused at first how you get the shredder to work but all you do is slide back the tab on the top and that will turn the shredder on. That part is nice because you can keep this around children without the worry of them getting hurt. The best part about this shredder is that it can not only shred paper but also shred old CDs!! Like what?? That is great. I have to say I have not tried shredding anything other than paper yet but the fact it is that strong is awesome. The other thing I love is how quiet this shredder is. It does have a sound but it is by no means loud like my old one. The bin for the shredder is huge and holds just enough! I keep this shredder in my office where the whole office can use it. I would recommend anyone to buy this! Just do it!!

Super shredder

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 20-sheet micro-cut shredder runs very quiet and is simple to set up. The instructions are really simple and only basic steps are needed to start using this shredder. Make sure to use the shredder lubricant sheet to lubricate the blades so it performs like it should. There is one included but make sure you continue to use the lubricant sheets at least twice a month. This shredder shreds paper into very small pieces and the paper just glides in easily. Having wheels on it allows me to roll it around as needed. This way I can place it where I need it or store it under my desk when I don't have to use it for a while. The features are quite nice. With a straight feed it's nice to know they thought of little fingers that might go into the chute thereby detecting and stopping the shredder immediately at the slightest touch. I run our small business in our home and have small children also so this is a wonderful feature to have. I always supervise my children and they usually don't go in my office but I really think this is a needed feature. There are plenty of status lights that let the operator know what's going on during operation. There is overheat protection overload protection and jam protection. The wastebasket is very large and holds a lot so I don't have to dump it often. It slides out and slides back easily so I have no issues dumping the shreds. The window allows you to see plus the wastebasket full indicator will make sure you know when it needs dumped. And if it matters much it has a nice modern appearance and looks appealing. I am very pleased with this shredder and if you have a small business or just need to shred personal documents credit cards CDs and DVDs then this is a great one to get.
