Nice shredder
Works great thus far. Long run time and can handle multiple paper sheets, a credit card or a CD with no issues. Very quiet too. Happy with the performance. I have been able to shred a lot of papers without any issues. It is very secure; small micro-cut pieces make it impossible to read anything on the papers. Highly recommended. Price was great also.

Terrible Paper Shredder!
Terrible Paper Shredder! Over heats every 15 or so pages. Even in small stacks of 5 papers at a time. If you try to feed more than 5 it bogs down and stops working unless you restart it. Will be returning as soon as I can.

Bought in on Tuesday and returned it on Wednesday
On day 1 it ran for 9 minutes before overheating. On day 2 it ran forv10 minutes before overheating and never recovered. We boxed it up and returned it. We bought it because it advertised 20 minute run time. Not true. Don't waste your money.

Good for light home use, it is not heavy duty for an office.

Shredder Review
First day it already quit working. It will run when turned on, but half way through the first page the red temperature light comes on and shuts it down.

Overheats and won't work after literally 1 page
I tried putting 6 pieces of paper straight through (they didn't bunch up or anything like that). The machine couldn't handle it and overheated. Then, I tried unplugging and plugging it back in and it couldn't even handle one page at a time without overheating. This is a serious disappointment!

Works Great & Very Quiet
This is working great so far. It is much quieter than my previous one. My only thing to say is that it is a little bit slower than other micro cuts that I've used but not that big of a deal.

I expected this to be noisy but compared to my previous one it’s quiet and frankly a welcome change. I haven’t had it long enough to say anything else. It is so much easier to empty i know i will like that. I also like the safety feature so toddlers won’t open it or put their fingers in it.

Good shredder
This shredder works like a charm. I like its smaller "footprint" and it is quieter than our last shredder.

Great shredder
My old shredder broke I needed one soon. I checked with Staples and found this shredder at a reasonable price. I shreds great into micro pieces. The part I like best is that it is not as noisey as my old shredder. It is a bit heavy but the casters makes moving somewhat easier.

Efficient Shredder
Very easy to operate and is by far one of the most quieter shredders I've seen.
