Rexel Optimum Auto Feed+ 50 Sheet Automatic Cross Cut Paper Shredder, P-4 Security, Home/Home Office, 20 Litre Removable Bin, 2020050X, Black

Excellent piece of kit. Simple, quiet, effective. Just load it and let it get on with the work. Size is reasonable given the capacity of the bin, the cutting and loading mechanisms. Recommended.

This thing is an absolute beast. Also slightly bigger than I thought which is great considering all the shredding I needed to do. Documents and junk mail I had built up and my old shredders just couldn't handle it all. One very old strip cut (not very secure) and a cheap single sheet crosscut that just wasn't up to the job with a very small bin. The drawer on my new one is really spacious, it has wheels on the back to mack pulling it out when full and pushing it back in a lot easier. also the firm locking action too. Top loading door is a bit hard to open but it's good so I can load it up with a load of sheets/junk mail, close the lid and it auto starts and keeps going until it is done. Can feed in sheets induvidually through the top as well, love the rollers that feed sheets etc through as well. Best shredder I ever owned worth every penny of the £155 I paid for it. Did arrive a day late but that's not an issue. Would highly recommend if you have loads of shredding to do.

Great machine and does its job well. Noise level is great. The draw is great for emptying but the back of draw is lower than front and gap between back of machine and draw. You end up with a bunch of shredded paper stuck at back of machine which makes a mess but stops draw from going back in. So when emptying or opening draw to push pile of paper build up in center you can't put draw back in and have to Hoover inside of machine every time. Design fault for sure. Another frustration is if using in home office or bedroom office as my desk is, you have to switch off at wall as blue light blinks very bright even if you turn machine off with off button. Besides those faults it does its job well besides being messy.

This machine is a pleasure to use. I have it in a home office and its excellent. I am not shredding large amounts of paper, but it has the convenience of dropping the odd sheet in the 'letterbox' or placing small (or larger) numbers into the bulk feeder. I had seen several reports that this machine was prone to jamming, but if used with care, no problem. The bulk feeder takes each in from the centre of the sheet, and pulls it down from the middle (hence feeding double), if it has a problem with this feed, it just reverses and then takes it through. It is automatic, and just as it's intended. I have just disposed of my old (quality) shredder after about 25 years, but this Rexel is an excellent replacement.

Seriously useless. Avoid. It repeatably jams on 10 sheets of thin paper. It does not cut 50 sheets but allegedly loads them, accept it often jams in this mode too. Hopeless. Wastes loads of time. My old Aurora was better than this heap of junk. It doesn't do CDs either. The only good thing is that its quiet. The collection bin is of a very flimsy build, as is the top flap, and the machine shuts down saying 'bin full' when the bin is actually less than half full. Another design flaw , apart from the endless jams in manual and auto mode, is that the shredded paper falls down behind the collection bin inside the cabinet. More bad design. When you pull out the bin to empty it, you either get a load of shredded paper on the floor or a clump of it at the back of the machine making closing the bin difficult. Either way you end up vacuuming to clean up the mess. and wasting more time Any notion that tis machines auto feed will save you time is nonsense as you have to keep sorting out problems. Its the worst shredder I have ever used.

I had over 20 years of paper for a small business to take care of with this and man did it make the job easier. Pop in the pages and let it run! So great. Not having to individually load each page is great. Highly recommend. Runs pretty quick! Great shredder. Good value for money. The noise level is around the same as an average shredder. It’s is so functional and can shred loads of different paper types well. It’s a nice size for a small office. Around the size of 3 cereal boxes together!

auto feeder great for paper, self feed use top slot for card

Quick and low noise shredder. Works great.
