Positive feedback also highlights its ease of use and compact size. However, some users mention occasional overheating and a relatively high noise level during operation. While some experience jamming issues, many report reliable performance.

    I bought this shredder to make life easier .... and it has! It shreds paper quickly and easily! The only advice is: don’t put more than 6 papers at a time. It did get jammed and I had to pull the papers but other than that, I would recommend to others.

    Does the job, but overheats after 10 minutes

    This shredder shreds 6 pages as promised, except you can't use it for more than 10 minutes at a time. When it overheats, I have to turn it off for about 5-10 minutes and it will be good to start up again. Overall, this shredder is good for the price and the size, if you are looking to do small amounts. We keep it in our home studio and don't have many papers to shred at a time. We really just got it to shred junk mail and pages that have our personal information on them. As a side note, I just don't understand why in 2016, there isn't a shredder that is slim, lightweight, reliable and powerful, all at the same time.

    I have purchased this shredder at a Best Buy store on 9/22/2020. I like it being light weight, easy-to-use with a capacity of shredding six-page document all at once. I have tried to use it once and it worked great. The price is unbeatable.

    It's the first time I had used a shredder and I must say that I haven't run into any problems so far even after cleaning my whole studio of all the extra papers that had to go(and that was by no means just a few papers). The shredder is very powerful, has a good size and I am enjoying the auto setting.

    Over the past six years I've used a number of different brands of paper shredder. This one is the very best I have come across. It has not jammed, nor has it failed to shred any of the reams of old documents I have put through it since I purchased it.

    I bought this online and was surprised at how small it was when it came. I is stronger than the larger shredder that is dying on me. So far this shredder has handled everything well and takes up little space in my garage. We just have to empty it more often which is no big deal..

    Purchased for our vacation home to have an addition to the office. Works well but just a bit noisy. We do not shred large amounts of documents so this inexpensive shredder fills the bill Would buy again

    This item is decent for lite shredding jobs. It does tend to over heat with mild use and does take a while for it to cool down. Over all, not too bad, but not great.

    A shredder is a must in any home nowadays. We get so much junk mail with personal information. I got tired of stacking them up and having to tear them by hand, so I decided to purchase the Insignia™ - 6-Sheet Crosscut Shredder. I have to say that this is one of the best investments that I have made so far. The shredder is a bit loud, but it gets the job done. I did notice that with the better quality paper (which is a bit thicker), the machine gets a bit slower if trying to feed 6 pages at a time. So far, that is the only issue that I have had with the Insignia™ - 6-Sheet Crosscut Shredder. I would definitely recommend this shredder to anyone.

    The shredder is compact and light weight. Its speed is more than adequate. Was happy with the value for the price. The only very small issue for us is the top is not flat like the one we replaced.

    As our filing cabinet is getting maxed out again, time to shred old bills and such. Works as expected with no problems. From papers, old credit cards and even CD shreds without a hitch. Fits easily under the desk so it's super convenient. Looking for shredder without shredding your wallet - get this shredder.

    Good paper shredder in general. Not so great when used to shred in bulk or high volumes of documents as it starts to jam. Great for low volume paper shredding

    I have had this shredder for a little over a month and it has held up strong. We were moving my mother-in-law out of her home and shredded a garbage can full of miscellaneous papers. This shredder did a great job and never jammed once.

    Just don't overdue it on the paper and you are good to go. It maxes out at 6, but I just put 2-3 pages in at a time and it makes quick work of them. Shreds those old cards you might have in your wallet really well. Great price. I'm not the kind of person who would spend 100+ on a shredder.
