    This shredder is strong, reliable, and perfect for home use. It stops when it becomes hot so it can rest. Goof value too!

    Works really well, even does credit cards, and was a good price, it is a little smaller than my previous one but I’ll just have to empty it a little more often

    Good for an economical home office. Just keep it clean, lubricate it as needed and should last a reasonable amount of time. Had my last one five years.

    I love how compact this shredder is and how easy it is to lift with the handle to empty the shredder. I even line the basket with a bag to make it super easy to throw in the trash.

    I am giving this 5 stars because of how well it works for its price range (purchased on sale about $30). I ran quite a bit of paper through it the first week i had it. I tried to keep the amount at one time to 3-4 sheets because I was feeding it nearly continuously. At times it seemed to be warming up, so I simply waited a couple minutes. I never reached the point that the overheat warning light came on. The reverse switch worked well the one time I jammed it. Now that it has survived my bulk shredding, it should be excellent for the smaller shredding jobs it is designed for. I've had no problems in the first month I've had it.

    I bought this shredder today and managed to shred 16 years of tax forms. I filled four 13 gallons trash bags with all that paper. It named a bit, but easy to unclogged. Given the price this turned out to be a good deal.

    Great sherdder for home use. It does over heat and shut off after a while but its understandable as it is not an industrial shredder.

    Works very well for a budget shredder! Will shred staples and credit cards as described. Got this on an open box for around $30 bucks. Good deal.

      That's fantastic! Getting a shredder that works well and can handle staples and credit cards for such a great price, especially as an open box deal, sounds like a real win! We're glad you're happy with it. - Carl | Insignia Products BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    Good product. Wasn’t very expensive so I expected it to not be the greatest. Works well for light usage, overheats fairly quick but doesn’t take long to cool off.
