    I am so danged impressed with this paper shredder!! I (once upon a time) had stacks of old paperwork to shred but fear not!! I was able to shred these items in no time flat!! Not once did this overheat. I did have a few times where the papers were too thick and I had to back track them out but that was totally my fault!! I’d give this 10 stars if I could!!!

    Our previous shredder (which gave us five good average years) went "down for the count". We said that we should get the Cadillac of shredders so we went through the Best Buy offerings. We struck Gold on this one! We decided on this Insignia Brand name as we have another great Insignia product in our home. This baby shreds paper and plastic with no mercy! We don't expect to test it with 10 papers a clip but it eats up everything in it's slots. This is a can't miss buy!

    Nice Shredder for Added Security

    This shedder is great because it cross cuts your documents, so you have even smaller pieces when shredding. The only thing I’m not crazy about is the drawer in front pulls out so you’ll need extra room in front during placement otherwise it becomes a little awkward to remove the drawer. I’m still glad I purchased this product.

    This Insignia is a lot quieter than the model I replaced. I appreciate the micro-cut rather than the crosscut. The fact this this Insignia has wheels is great.

    Works great and is the perfect size. It runs long enought for me to get all my papers shredded and has not hit the shut off time yet. Takes about 10 sheets at once.
