Efficient and secure shredding

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Staples 12-Sheet Micro-Cut Personal Shredder for a few weeks and I definitely like the quality of this shredder. My favorite thing about this shredder is simply that it shreds documents to a point where I can feel secure about throwing them out. Some shredders don’t do a good job at this but the crosscut shreds the paper to be unreadable and irreparable. As a check I tried to see if I could make anything out on the shredded paper and the pieces were so small I couldn’t really tell what I was looking at. I couldn’t even find a nearby matching piece after shredding two sheets. Despite it being quite tall for capacity it’s decently thin. It fits easily under my working desk and just roles in and out as I need it. The role feature was smooth and helped to get it out of the way when I wasn’t using it. Perhaps the only thing I would change about it is that I would make the extension cord a little longer so I can role it farther but I can add one of those as I need it. The box says that this has a run time of 20 minutes and a cooldown of 40 minutes but at no point did I ever come close to reaching the max 20 minute window. It’s good to at least know it exist but I don’t ever imagine shredding so many documents at one time that it takes me 20 minutes. Another good feature I liked is that the shredder area is covered by a sliding wall. To get access the shred portion the cover must slide back and it’s a nice safety feature. Finally when the shredder gets full there is a little window so that you know when to empty. Even with the window I haven’t really had any issues with capacity since there is quite a bit of space. Overall I like this shredder a lot. It’s an efficient use of space and is relatively quite for a shredder. The fact that it sheds to a very secure level and roles makes this a great product in my eyes.

[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.
I expected this to be noisy but compared to my previous one it’s quiet and frankly a welcome change. I haven’t had it long enough to say anything else. It is so much easier to empty i know i will like that. I also like the safety feature so toddlers won’t open it or put their fingers in it.
Works great and makes very little noise. Would highly recommend for small shredding jobs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shredder is very quiet easy to use good safety features and rolls easily on casters. It makes a fine cut so it is good for sensitive documents. Easily shreds credit cards long running time without overheating and is easy to empty with a window to see when it needs to be emptied. Overall a very nice quality for a small office space.
Like it very much. Is easy to use and does a fine job.

Perfect for home office

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great shredder! Easy to set up and easy to use overall great machine. It’s a bit on the heavier side so I appreciate that it came with wheels. Cuts like a dream micro cuts are the way to go! I can shred tons of papers and cards before I have to dump the basket out because it cuts everything so small and efficiently. I appreciate that the basket opens in the front for easy disposal I although I wish it had a handle for easier opening and closing. A neat feature I really like is that there is a cover that covers the slot/blades when not in use. And the cover is the on/off switch which is convenient and I feel safe having in the home with a curious toddler in the house. Last but not least the sound isn’t all that loud even when shredding credit cards. I have a sound sensitive toddler and he didn’t mind the noise at all. Definitely recommend!
