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.

    Needed to replace my old shredder and so glad I chose this one. It's not that expensive but is way more efficient and reliable than my previous one. Holds at least twice as much in the basket and cuts more pages at one time. A very worthwhile investment!

    Bought this shredder to replace a shredder that kept jamming. Works great, just make sure to remove any sticky, gummy substance before you run your documents through. It builds up over time and causes jams. Happy shredding!

    Very compact size. Perfect for small offices, apartments, or dorm rooms. It's actually surprisingly quiet for a document shredder (it still makes some noise but not much more than the industrial quiet version at my office.) If you are looking for an affordable document shedder for all your junk mail/financially sensitive data then look no further!

    Easy to use. I guess if I had to pick at one thing it would be that the bin, where the shredded paper goes is a little flimsy but other than that, it works fine. Pleased with purchase.

    Quality shredder. As long as you follow the six-sheet maximum, then it will tear it up in an instant. I enjoy the overheat light feature. My previously shredder didn't have this feature, which results in its demise. But with the overheating indicator, it automatically stops to cool down.

    After an extensive review of several shredders, the Insignia Crosscut was our final choice and we are very pleased with this unit. It has lived up to the high ratings for durability, quality, reliability, overall heavy-duty construction and so much more. I highly recommend this product to anyone for home office to small business use.

    Bought this as a back-up, second one in a different place in our house. Have one in basement work area and now have one in our computer room. It is good not to have to go up and down stairs to shred items that need to be shredded. Basket has good capacity and is easy to empty.

    I purchased this for the cross-cut shredding and was very pleased. Shreds credit cards, CDs, and 10 pages at a time. But about 40 minutes of non-stop shredding, just had to cool off for about 30 minutes, then finished the job. Good value and a little workhorse.

    This shredder chews up paper quickly and efficiently. I wasn't sure what to expect from an inexpensive piece of hardware like this, but I have been very happy with it. I don't use it much more than a few times per month, but this shredder works without a problem every time.

    I finally have a shredder that has not over heated. It will do many sheets of paper at one time. It chews up credit cards with out even skipping a beat. This is without a doubt the Best Shredder I have ever purchased.

    I love using this shredder. I make paper logs, for my wood stove, and this makes it so much easier to do. It is a great way to get rid of all that junk mail too.
