Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is an item that every household should have to shred any documents with your name and address on it. This shredder is fast, easy to use and compact.

Value is good, don't try to overload it with too many papers. Great for day to day light shredding, not built for an office or heavy shredding.

This shredder turns the paper into confetti, so it takes a lot less space than shredders that put out long strips. This shredder accepts six sheets of paper, and you can take off the top off the shredder with one hand, when you need to empty the shredder.

Due to the concern of throwing away any mail or papers with our personal information I decided to purchase the Insignia Shredder. I had never used a shredder and I am really impressed at the way this shredder can destroy so many pieces of paper and similar items. I had a credit card that had some illegal charges on it and they recommended I close that account and open a new on. I did and I due to the personal information on that credit card, I shredded it in this shredder. I looked at the shredded pieces and there was no way anyone could find my personal information.

For basic in home shredding. If you are trying to do heavy shredding then look somewhere els. But for me it works great, simple, good size and shreds quickly. Max is 6 pages and has basic On/Off switch and auto.

This shredder has really been a really good purchase. First the price was so surprising. The thing I like the most about this shredder is the performance for home use. I've officially retired my black sharpie and scissors. The price and performance are very fair.

Haven’t had a problem with my Insignia shredder since I’ve owned it. I’ve worked it pretty hard and have put thousands of pages through it without any frustration. Just feed it paper and it chews them up. You can’t beat it for the price.

It fits a small space that had not been used. A little loud and not as fast as I had been used to but it is self contained. Top part with motor is heavier that I had expected. It fits my needs.

love this shredder. Its shreds a great deal of paper and doesn't overheat quickly like my previous schredder. I would recommend this to anyone working from home who often needs to shred docs. Works perfectly for me.

As long as you don't overstuff this machine you are fine. It has an automatic shutoff when it overheats and cools off in about 10 minutes. Small enough to tuck into place. Cute little window shows you how full it is.

I am really satisfied with this shredder. For the amount of personal shredding I require, it serves my needs. It works fine and shreds up to 6 pages at a time. The one draw back is the shredding of old credit cards. Some of my cards are made with a thin piece of metal as well as the chip which consists of a piece of metal. these, I was not able to shred. the card got stuck in the blades. Happily, I was able to press the reverse button and extract the card from the blades. It works well with plastic cards!

This cross cut shredder was easy to use right out of the box. I had no trouble getting it up and running. Wonderful for small jobs, but remember to empty the container frequently. I am happy with this purchase.

I think this shredder is going to be a durable and hard working shredder. I have already done credit cards and business papers. I feel comfortable with it and think it will last me for years. I give it 5 stars.

This is perfect for an average user. Does exactly as intended without any issues. And about half the cost of it's competitors! I've shredded multiple documents and zero jams. As with any other shredder, make sure to lubricate it so it prolongs it's life.

Easy to use, compact, a little noisy but not that bad, works great, excellent product for the price..

Nice shredder for the price. It’s been great for my use. Does the job. No complaints. For my not so heavy usage, this is sufficient compared to expensive ones.

good for simple shredding of paper and receipts. bin holds a lot of shredding before needing to empty. recommend only doing 1-2 sheets of paper at a time. if run for too long, can overheat.

Works well. Have not had any issues with it overheating or jamming. Unit is a bit cumbersome but all in all a good purchase for the money.

I jammed my previous shredder which was nearly twice the size of this one. However, I've found this little power house adequately handles my paper shredding needs. Also, it was half the price of the one I used before buying this one. Great value!

I bought this shredder because I went cheap and got one that couldn't shred more than a couple of pieces of paper at a time. This one can handle much more and doesn't jam. I highly recommend this product for a home office or personal use.
