Great shredder for the buck
Right out of the box I put this baby to the test. It does what it says it can do and more. I ran it for an hour straight with no problems. Let it cool down a bit (but did no need it). I was a bit scared when it hit a dime glued to my junk mail. It kept on going . I was going to spend $109.00 on a professional shredding service but went for another $50.00 and bought this machine. No complaints here. I did about 100 plus pounds of documents in total.

Well made shredder so far
Ok........ So this thing seems to do pretty well so far. My husband had paperwork as far back as the mid 90's that needed shredding. I finally decided to buckle down and get it done. The shredder allowed me to get it done all in a few hours on the same day. It was quiet enough that I could watch TV while shredding and I didn't have an issue with it over heating. It has a fan and it would kick on if it started to get hot. Very happy with it and worth the money.

The Little Shredder That Could and Did and Will!
I am *impressed* with this little shredder. We had several months backlog after unexpectedly having to cancel our quarterly shred service. I was expecting to spend hours catching up. Boy, was I wrong! This little dude ate envelopes full of credit offers, balance transfers, and every other annoying POS junk mail we get. I got through it all, including one time to empty it, in less than an hour. Never jammed, never overheated. I can't say enough good things about this little guy! Just buy it!

Question: I am unable to open it to empty the bin. I have emptied it before. The manual doesn't address this. Can anyone help?
Answer: You need to lift up the bin a little to help release it so you can empty bin. When you put it back in place it the reverse process . Bin needs to in place for shredder to operate. Hope this can help you.
Question: Will I be able to just shred the junk mail without having to open it up? Particulary those free adress labels.
Answer: This machine shreds only paper, Credit Cards, CDs/DVDs. The shredding of any other materials may result with serious damages. Please DO NOT shred credit cards, CDs/DVDs and paper at the same time. Also you should not shred soft objects such as foil, paper towels, toilet paper or fabrics. Nor paper with self‐adhesive tape should be placed into the shredder. Those materials wrap around and jam the blades.
Question: Does this shredder have a cooling fan?
Answer: Yes, it has a cooling system and will really run for an hour without over-heating.
When you notice the shredder is experiencing difficulty shredding, or gets jammed easily, then it's probably time to oil. If you use your shredder occasionally, then oiling your shredder may only be necessary every two months to maintain good performance. If you use your shredder a lot, however, then your best practices are to oil your shredder every time you empty the waste bin. Get your shredder lubricants by clicking here.
Works well so far. Relatively quiet. Quite powerful.
United StatesAfter spending hours feeding two to three pages at a time into a couple of old shredders I did some researching and found this shredder. This bonsai is absolutely amazing!! It mows through up to 18 pages of time, and I don't have to remove the staples. His sits silently until you insert some paper and then it quietly gobbles them up. The trash bin is a very nice size and the shredder empties cleanly so you can empty the bin without a bunch of pieces dropping down making a mess.
United StatesExcellent product. Shipped very quickly. Extremely satisfied.
United States United StatesRealizing that I that I have become inundated with an unsurmountable amount of old records and receipts, I inquired as to the cost of having my paperwork shredded by one of the businesses that perform that service. As I continued my inquiries, the prices became more and more ridiculous. I looked into the cost of a shredder that accepts several sheets of paper at one time. That made a lot more sense than having it done for me, and is surely more secure. For under $170, I now have a machine that will service me for many years to come. Happy days!
United StatesThe shredder works very well, it takes 18 pages at a time with no issues.
United StatesVery pleased-big improvement over old overheater!!!
United StatesI am so happy with this shredder. Great investment. I can fill this large basket without it getting jammed or hot, unlike other smaller shredders I’ve bought before. I would definitely buy it again.
