Great product

 

I've had this product for a while now and it works just as great as some of the larger shredders around. Great for your home!

Love this shredder

 

I had a shredder many years ago which didn't last long at all. This one is a better quality and sturdier than the other one. I works well. The only negative I can see is that it's loud. Other than that, it's a great machine!

Consumer review by:

Excellent

 

Terrific product. The price is reasonable and it performs better than any other paper shredder I've ever owned. I bought this one after I had used the exact one I bought a year earlier.

Shred the Comepetition

 

It does what it promises - it shreds the number of sheets plus credit cards. It's as quiet as you can expect a commercial grade shredder for home use. I gave it 4-stars because every company should strive for improvement; it would be excellent if it...

Good but not great

 

I had quite a few files to shred. After @ 15 stacks of paperwork, it overheats and won't run until it cools back down. Not sized heavy duty enough for the way that it was marketed.

We get what we pay for....

 

I bought this shredder on Amazon.com because I buy so many products here. I don't shred very often and didn't want to spend much money. Ughhh.....Big mistake! This shredder stopped shredding after 30 minutes so I thought it was overheated. I let it...

Perfect for Me

 

My maximum price point for a home office shredder is $40, and this shredder meets my need very nicely. The motor turns on crisply, shreds, and then turns off just as crisply. My favorite part? No annoying light! It doesn't have any lights on the unit.

Super Shredder

 

I was a bit leary about purchasing this shredder because the price was so reasonable. I love it. I works really well. I have been shredding years worth of old credit card statements and old credit cards. This machine does it all with no problems.
