    Smaller than I expected but works well for home use. I use this just for shredding personal mail and other personal items. It works fine.

    I needed something that is affordable and good quality. Great shredder. I am trying to be gentle and feed only 3-4 papers at a time.

    Works great! No problems with it at all. Solid size and price. Recommend for home or a smaller office where you don’t have to shred a lot of papers everyday. Shreds quickly.

    This Insignia™ - 6-Sheet Crosscut Shredder is decent for the price. It has the typical switch settings, which includes forward, backward, auto and off. It has a safety switch that will allow the shredder to operate only when on the basket in the proper position. Also has an overheating shutoff safety mechanism, which will activate the red overheated light and shut the shredder down. Once the shredder cools off, it will again operate normally. This shredder has a convenient window in the basket to see when the basket is getting full. If you place a bag in the basket to contain the shredded paper, it will inhibit your ability to see how full the basket is. This shredder is rated for up to 6 sheets of paper at a time, but it seems to struggle a bit with more than 3 sheets. Also gets overheated faster when putting more sheets at one time through it. It also has credit card shredding ability. I got this unit for just under $30 on sale. That was a good deal, but I would hesitate to buy it at full price. I would purchase a better quality unit instead of paying full price for this one.
