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.

    Works well. Bucket fills too quickly.

    The shredder works well and efficiently. The big disappointment was in the capacity of the waste basket. The basket does hold about 5 gallons but the usable capacity for waste is closer to 3 gallons since the shredder itself takes up a large part of the capacity.

    If you shred a lot of paper at once it’s going to jam and overheat. I did that the first day and it takes about 20 minutes to cool. I only needed to that once because I was moving out. Now i use it once in a while and it’s perfect for a home office.

    NOT LONG LASTING

    After owning the shredder for 1 yr. and 3 months. The auto off switch quit working. I haven't used it very much since I've had it. I have owned 3 shredders that were cheaper and they are still working. Bought this because of the ability to take sheets. I have never put and more than 4 sheets thru it. It is not used for an office. Just for my my personal business. I could fix it myself if I had a diagram showing where the cut-off switch is located. The shredder fits so low into the waste basket, it fills up pretty quick. Need a bigger (taller) basket.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    What can I say, it shreds crazy good. The bucket is a little to small. I have to dump it about once a week.

    Just bought the Insignia Crosscut Shredder to replace my straight shredder. It is very efficient and works great, much more efficient than the straight shredder with more security

    It is a great Shredder, but it should say 2-3 pages at the time. More than a few sets or more sheets it sounds that it is overworked and it gets auto shut for overheat. But for a couple of sheets, it is just fine. The cut of the shredder is perfect.
