Easy and Efficient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shredder is great! It allows you to shred multiple pages at once without any issues which is great in an office setting or for someone who works from home (like me). It was very efficient and easy to use! Just plug it in and you’re good to go! I kept this shredder right by my desk for easy access which was perfect! It was a little noisy but not anymore than any other shredder.

Perfect for occasional use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all I was very impressed with how compact yet functional this shredder is. I’ve used compact shredders in the past but they were still way bulkier than this one. The efficient and minimalistic design allows to leave the shredder in sight even when office space is limited. My office also doubles as my craft room and it is also the smallest room in the house. Needless to say I need to be very creative with putting more stuff in it! But I had no issues whatsoever with leaving this shredder under the desk where it’s barely noticeable. It also feels quite sturdy in terms of assembly and materials. I work from home 1-2 days a week while my husband works from home full time. Most of the stuff we print is non-sensitive information which simply ends up in recycling. But every once in a while we do need to safely dispose of documents with personal data (for work and personal documents) and expired credit cards here and there. This shredder is absolutely perfect for this! It cuts both paper and plastic cards with ease and is easy/intuitive to use (which I find important since we don’t use it daily so didn’t memorise all the buttons). The shredded pieces are small enough that I’m not worried about privacy. Now if we needed to use it more often I’d probably look for something else since the bin is not exactly huge and frequent use would require more frequent emptying as well. While emptying the bin is not complicated it’s still yet another task on the to-do list. Naturally this is the compromise for having a compact machine. But if you are looking for a good shredder for occasional use this model is great!

Study reliable shredded

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Mail mate 12-Sheet Micro-Cut Shredder is a sturdy little machine that packs a punch! It’s small enough to tuck away under a desk but still holds enough to not need to be emptied too frequently. It’s easy to use and with the ability to hold 12 sheets of paper it doesn’t take long at all to shred whatever you need. We keep this in our home office and it looks sleek and professional. We previously owned an earlier model of this shredded and this new one is even quieter smoother and easier to use. We’re big fans of the Staples Mail mate 12-Sheet Micro-Cut Shredder and trust that it’s well made and will last our family a long time!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this is a good shredder to use at home. I have mine in our office/computer room and it fits in nicely there. It's a good size-- it's not too bundlesom or anything like that. I am happy with its efficency shedding papers.

So far it has been a good shredder and is quieter than most. I'd recommend it for home use or light office use.

I've had this for a couple days now and shredded quite a bit. No issues. I really like that the bucket for the shreds pulls out - I don't find I really need bags for the shreds I just dump out in a big bag. So far so good -

Love my new shredder
on May 25, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a photo editor my home office space is very important to me. I love to find products that perform well while also being “space saving.” This shredder fits the bill! This picture shows that it was small enough to fit nicely on a shelf in my office; however don’t let that small size fool you… this shredder has plenty of get up and go! It has good shred speed while also shredding documents into tiny pieces. I love that the cross-shredded size increases security while also allowing more shredded material to fit inside the bin. It looks like it will be quite a while before I’ll need to empty it. Overall I’d consider this shredder a winner! I couldn’t find anything negative about it. I was surprised I could get so excited over a shredder!

Really useful and efficient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i think this shredder is just right. It’s a nice size pretty compact and does not take up too much room perfect for at home use. I actually keep mine in my living room right beside the couch since it has such a small footprint. It also gets the job and stores the shredded bits in a convenient bin that you can empty at your leisure. For me the bin holds quite a bit for its size just don’t let it get too full or the shredded bits will get everywhere when emptying. Not a major issue just simply monitor how full the bin gets and just empty it a reasonable point. This shredder works quickly quietly and also gives me peace of mind when I throw out my mail since it is is a cross-cut shredder. So much better than the old rip-with-your-hands method and I am certainly not the type to sit with a marker and cross out all my sensitive information. Peace of mind is a big deal and this shredder gives me that without making it feel like a hassle or a chore. Keep in mind it’s not a high volume shredder so don’t get crazy. This is a sleek compact at-home/home office shredder.
