home office shredder

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have used this shredder in our home office mainly for personal shredding. The size is not too large so it doesn't take much space yet it has a great bin capacity so we're not constantly emptying the bin. The shredder is light weight and it does have wheels however we've found it to be a little top-heavy when trying to move it around. The wheels aren't great on carpet but would be a great feature for a hard surface floor. We love the protective cover over the paper feeder so we don't need to worry about little fingers getting caught. We love the page capacity and it has also shredded credit cards with ease. The noise level of the shredder isn't overwhelming and is comparable to other personal shredders we've used in the past. This is a great addition for any home office.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Staples 20 Sheet Micro-Cut Commercial Shredder is ABSOLUTELY GREAT!! I run a small business out of my house creating shirts sweaters and other custom products for my customers so I was stoked to get to try this shredder out because I hadn’t gotten one yet and having to cut up confidential mail to throw it away was a hassle! This shredder is commercial strength so it has a very large bin capacity. I’ve had the shredder for around close to a month or so & it’s only about a quarter of the way full I haven’t had to empty it yet once and I literally use it daily while going through m paperwork from my orders and stuff I always shred any paperwork with customers info on it after I’ve gotten their order packed up & I get multiple orders daily. It can even shred old debit/credit cards without any issue at all. It doesn’t slow it down or cause a jam either I’ve tried that out & was blown away at how quickly & easily this shredder shredded the debit card! Due to this shredder being commercial it isn’t tiny but it’s also not ginormous. It will need a little space in your office or workplace wherever you will be keeping it. It’s also a little heavy because it is made of quality material & very tough! I’ve had compact size very light shredders in the past and they were junk. Always got jammed & could hardly cut through anything. This shredder was absolutely the best one I could have hoped to receive to use for my small out of home business. It has every quality I needed and plus sooo many more! If you’re considering buying it PLEASE BELIEVE ME AND DO IT! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!

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.
