Decent for the money
We got in on sale for cheap and works great for awhile, but if you have a busy week and let the docs pile up to shred over the weekend, well be prepared to take some breaks as it tends to get hot and stop working. That being said, as soon as it cools it runs like a champ again for awhile till it gets hot again. We've had it for a few years and have just learned not to let docs to shred pile up and all is fine. Cannot give 5 stars due to the overheating, but works like a 5 star shredder when cool. So had to go with 4.

Not as expected from B&D
I intended to purchase an Init shredder that I had researched on Best Buy for rating, but 2 of them were out of stock. I bought medium priced Black & Decker, for reputation of their equipment and a 3 yr. warranty listed on the box. I could tell it was smaller can than one that had let go on me a week earlier, gears finally went. That one lasted 5 yrs, cheaper one, but cross-cut, and alot of personal use. This shredder is the noisiest thing ever, but aside from that, it is messy. It leaves pieces of paper in the blades, paper dust throughout. I not only had to dump it 2 times, just to catch up on shredding, but had to take paper out of the blades 3-4 times while shredding. I've only had it 4 days, just tried it 2 days ago, and it is going back. I will either wait for one of the Inits or will look elsewhere, and continue to look for one with a good reviews. BTW the 3 yr warranty is only on the blades, the rest of the shredder, including the gears are only 1 yr. This is deceiving on the box.
