Best Shredder - Glad I Purchased
on October 3, 2026
Posted by: Lois
I was shredding some very old checks and check statements and this shredder handled it with ease. When the basket was full the red light would go on and I only had to take the basket out and empty it in the trash. Once, a piece of paper was halfway through the shredder when it stopped working because it was full, I emptied it and the shredder finished shredding the paper. It is very quiet. All in all a very good purchase.
It’s just what i wanted: small, quiet, secure shredding. It works well and does what i want it to do, which is shred junk mail and sensitive documents. I like the size, so if you want minimalism, this is it.
Really good shredder. Nice and quiet, and shreds a lot of pages at once. A bit annoying that it runs when you turn it on and then when you re-insert the basket, but just minor inconveniences.
The description is right on it being quiet, I was expecting it to be much louder but it didn't bother me at all. I just got it and shredded like around 12 minutes worth and had no issues at all. I like how easy this bin is to remove unlike those other shredders where you have to remove the heavy top to access them, this one you can just remove the bin for easy access!
