    Was in need of a paper shredder. The price was ok. Store brand is ok because it’s gonna be ran through the paces. Don’t hesitate just buy it. Cross cut is pretty standard. Tip black out with marker any personal info before shredding.

    It is smooth. The only type in the store. The price was great. Would have like one that could shred more sheets at a time & was higher off the ground.

    Does it’s job but over heats way too fast. After using a couple of times the machine heats up and does not work until it’s unplugged and sits for a while.

    Should have been gotten this. It’s literally works perfectly. Wish I could shred more papers than just 6 sheets, but I’m enjoying the product otherwise. Oh and I could carry the the shredded by its handle from room to room.

    Excellent shredder, even has safety mechanism in case it fills to much. I do wish they came in bigger sizes for those with a home business. Still better than nothing of course!

    Works well but please be sure not to over-feed it. If you do, you'll need to manually clean it out if the rollers don't move.

    The shredder works good if the paper is put in exactly straight. Sometimes the paper gets stuck and if the Auto switch isn't exactly in position, the shredder doesn't go on. For the price it's adequate for home use.

    This shredder is by far the best, cross shreds a total of six sheets. Has a built in handle for easy removal of the shredder . Has a window for viewing the amount of shredded paper.
