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.

    Perhaps I am wrong in having the preconceived notion that anyone buying a shredder has many papers to shred; I mean, otherwise, if it were only a few, one would just rip and tear them oneself, no? Anyhow, the shredder struggles with 6 papers at once, but gets the job done. But you can't repeat as often as you'd like. It can shred continuously for about two minutes before it overheats and requires about a five minute break.

    Excellent shredder for the price. I've been cleaning out 20 years of accumulated documents and this shredder has been very reliable so far. Follow the directions of not using too many sheets at once and also how to periodically lubricate the blades.

    It does the job and it shredded perfectly. A bit noisy but strong and well lined up. Also makes fine with shredding credit cards.

    Overall a nice shredder for a decent price. Only downside is the slot that you put paper in is at an angle so sometimes it's difficult to get the paper started.

    Have had no problems. Probably not good for office because of size of container, but great for home use. Credit card slot does good job. No complaints so far.

    It does the job very well. The only thing I don’t really like about it is the capacity of the bin, I didn’t do too many papers as I kept having to empty the bin.

    Compared to my previous shredder this one is a little lacking. It is not real easy to get pages into the slot and doesn't shred as completely as the Black and Decker I had for many years.

    I needed a shredder for once in a while use, so this works just fine. One thing I didn't really like is that it heats up kind of fast. Other than that it's a good buy

    It is a good, sturdy machine. As with many smaller shredders, you should give the motor a rest periodically so that it doesn’t overheat. I found that out the hard way several years ago using a free shredder smaller than this one.
