    This is awesome shredder. I notice the comments saying there's stop working. I shredded over a 1000 pieces of paper with this. But it did stop shredding only because when you shredd to much paper. Some pieces go inside so you have to clean the inside of it near motor. Once you do that its god to go!!!

    Great little machine. Chewed through paper, staples and more than 6 sheets(by accident of course). If you need a small shredder for home use and occasional use, it's a great value.

      That's wonderful to hear, Queen! The Insignia™ 6-Sheet Crosscut Shredder is indeed a reliable choice. It can handle paper, staples, paper clips, and even credit cards, shredding up to six sheets per pass into small cross-cut strips. Its compact design and 3.4-gallon bin make it convenient for home use, and the safety interlock switch adds an extra layer of protection.

      If you have any questions about its features or need tips on maintaining it, feel free to ask. Enjoy your new shredder! Ed | Insignia Support | https://www.bestbuy.com/site/brands/best-buy-brands/pcmcat1596746025285.c?id=pcmcat1596746025285 BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    Works great, shreds everything I put in it. The shredding tends to pile up in the middle, but shake the bin a bit to settle everything and you’re good to go again for a while

    I bought this as a replacement for an old shredder that gave up the ghost. My old shredder was a crosscut shredder and the shredded paper was impossible to reconstruct. This one doesn't shred as finely as the old one, but unless you're shredding paper for corporate or national security purposes, this is adequate. This shredder has a window in the bin that allows you to see the bin is filling, which my old model lacked. And the shredder itself has a nice handle to lift it off the bin and the handle folds into the mechanism while it's in use. The only change I would make to the design would be for the bin to have handles on it to make carrying the bin easier. I've only used the shredder a few times since purchasing, so I'm not able to assess its durability or any problems. So far, I'm happy with the product.

    It’s not going to win any awards, BUT it does get the job done. It takes single envelopes and plastic cards with ease, does overheat quick so the warranty is highly recommended unfortunately. Decent pickup for the price if you ask me.
