Customers are saying

Customers praise the On Guard 12-Sheet Crosscut Shredder for its excellent shredding quality and ease of use. Some users noted that the unit can be loud and that the wastebasket could be larger. A few customers reported overheating issues, particularly when shredding large volumes of paper. However, the automatic shutoff feature mitigated this concern for some users.

    Appeared of better quality online. The electric cord does not attach securely to the shredder and falls off easily. The actual shredder has to be taken off to empty the bin. I wish there was a removable bin. The only plus is that it does shred properly. But I wouldn’t not recommend

    Needed a paper shredder and this looked like one that would work. So far it has been pretty decent. I like the compactor feature.
