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.

    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.

    One of the best cross shredders I purchased. Easy to install and is able to shred 6 sheets at a time in addition to credit cards. Love the size and it fits well under my office table.

    This is ok for light duty but I think 6 sheets max is really pushing this shredder. I have another 6-sheet shredder and it does a better job. This shredder sounds and feels less powerful than my other 6-sheet shredder. Pros? It shreds crosscut nicely and has a great sleek design with nice window. It says like 3 minute run time and 30 minute cooling. I have never waited 30 minutes to cool before so that is a pro. Cons? It gets clogged more often than my other 6-sheet shredder. I usually stick with 2-5 sheets at a time too but I still have to take needle nose pliers at times to pull out jammed pieces in the blades. Also it overheats more often than my other 6-sheet shredder but this happens when you are trying to do 2 or more basket fulls at a time. Here is a tip.... It will fill the basket up once without overheating. Once you fill it up, empty your basket and turn it off for a little a while before shredding again. If you cool it down after 1 basket full, it won't overheat. If I have lots of important documents to shred, I have 2 shredders side by side with each other and I switch back and forth with the shredding jobs between the two so it keeps them from overheating.

    The price was fantastic, It shreds rapidly and I feel much safer throwing out anything with a bar code and even better yet disposing of old credit cards. I would recommend this product to anyone for home use, and picked one up for my adult children too !

    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.

    Sweet cross shredder for home use. Shreds paper and credit cards. We run a lubricating sheet through the shredder once a month to keep it humming along. We purchased an open box unit and couldn't be happier.

    Does what it says it will. No problem. Haven't sat andshredded for 30 minutes to see if it overheats and stops. Anybody that does should buy a heavy duty model.. This is great for regular home use. Shreds to small pieces and was a good price.

    Purchased on 4/16/2020 to venture on ridding myself of stored paperwork, didn’t realize how much I had. The Insignia Crosscut Shredder is so easy to use and shred up to 6 sheets easily. Small but powerful!

    very good shredder, but needs a lot of breaks while you work on files and files you need to shred - credit card shredding is a plus :)

    This little unit exceeded all my expectations. So far it has not let me down. Compact size allows me to place it under my desk. I use this for occasional shredding of sensitive docs. Maybe 10 to 20 pages a month.

    I have been using this product for almost six months now and am amazed at its capability, durability, and ease of use. It shreds staples with ease and even destroys credit cards too! I love the reverse function however have no had to use it yet because have had absolutely no problems with paper jams. It is definitely worth the price for have owned cheaper shredders that do not last You definitely get what you paid for and more with this one! I highly recommend it!

    This is the best shredder I've ever owned! It holds a large amount of shreddings. The shredder/motor piece is very heavy and durable. I was a little nervous about getting a cross cut, as I always had a straight cut style. I have no regrets!
