Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the 6-Sheet Crosscut Shredder's impressive shredding capacity and affordable price as significant advantages. 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.

    This shredder works great! I've had others that tend to jam or take so long to cool down, but this can shred up to 10 pages and I haven't had any problems with it. It is a little loud, but I'll take that over a shredder that jams all the time.

    Does what it says, albeit a bit louder than others

    For the money, I can't really complain. It does the job well enough, just runs a bit louder than other shredders I've had in the past. But if you need one, it's a great deal when on sale!

    I love this shredder. It is considerable lower in price than the others I looked at in other stores. I love that it has an overheat light but so far when using it, it has never overheated! I am hoping it last longer than the shredders I have purchased in the past at other stores.

    Replaced an older shredder with this unit and I couldn't be more pleased with it. No more having to run just 1 piece of paper through at a time. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a shredder that does the job for home use.

    Great shredder for the money though you can over heat it fairly easily I needed to shred a number of documents and it took me a bit longer than I would like.

    This shredder is very easy to use. Works smoothly and did not over heat after a few passes. Very pleased with my purchase. Which is a good thing because there really weren't that many to choose from!

    My shredder just overheated and died and ordered this Insignia shredder. There was some problem with the shipping but Best Buy customer service dealt with it by having another sent and arrived promptly. The unit is smaller than my other and easier to empty [other was shelf-like] and this one just lift off the top. It shreds 2-3 sheets easily but more causes a strain but since I use this in my home office - no problem. I would only advise this be used for home use.

    Works great! We are shredding a bunch of old bank statements and it gets overheated. We take a break for a few minutes and it works like a champ again! I would recommend this.

    Works pretty good easy to use. Only thing is that it only accepts less than 6 sheets. If you use 5 or 6 sheets it warms up and goes into protect mode right away.

    It's quite good and mostly suites my purposes, but 6 sheets is overly optimistic, 4 is more realistic. I was debating between the 6-sheet and the 10-sheet, I was interested in the 10-sheet not only because of greater capacity and the smaller shredding size, but because of not having to remove staples or paper clips, but it wasn't clear from the information on the box whether the 10-sheet also shredded credit cards like the 6-sheet. I asked the attendant, and he couldn't find that information either. It would help to have it clearly stated on the box.

    Perfect for my small writing business. I don't have large quantities to shred, so doing it six sheets at a time is no worry. Nice and compact so it just blends right in with the rest of the home office. Love it!

    We normally shred our documents once a month but with this shredder we are able to shared them all the time. We have put in 8 pages occasionally and it's raking it like a champ. If you run it for a long time it will shut off because it becomes too hot.

    Bought this during a sale. It is very effective; it shreds to its maximum capacity. We have had it for two months and it is still good as new. It can be loud but almost all shredders do

    Works great for small jobs. Only downside is if you use it a lot at one time, it overheats quickly and then won’t shred.

    I have purchased 2 shredders in 2 years because of over hearing issues. This shredder is great. We have used it continually for over an hour and it keeps on shredding. This is a reasonably priced shredder that does the job right!

    I have purchased several shredders a couple being more expensive than this one and I must say this is my favorite. It doesn't jam like some of the others, cleans easily and it's small size makes it easy to keep in a corner without the place looking cluttered.

    Noisy but effective. This shredder works great and as advertised but should be used in a home office only. It is not for a place where you need quiet.
