8-Sheet Strip Cut Paper, CD, and Credit Card Shredder with Auto-Off Compact, Portable Design, No Basket, Extendable Arm, Black

I decided to get this lovely printer so I could save time getting rid of personal stuff. It worked perfectly. A little on the noisy side, but my cat quickly adjusted. It made short order of a stack of papers. I like the fact that it can shred cd's, plastic cards and 8 sheets of paper at a time. This shredder is priced well and it seems well made. If I had a fireplace, wood burner or even an outside fire pit, the shreds would make a good fire starter. It didn't get stuck and just ran a little slower with more shredables. I consider it a logical purchase.

Works well. Space saving, stored in desk drawer. Fits easily over garbage can, expandable.

The Amazon Basics 8-Sheet Strip Cut Shredder is a solid, no-frills machine that handles basic home office tasks with ease. It is surprisingly powerful for its compact size, shredding up to 8 sheets of paper at once without struggling. I’ve also used it for CDs and credit cards, and it cuts through them effortlessly, which is great for clearing out old physical media or expired cards. The auto-off feature is a nice safety touch, preventing the motor from overheating during longer shredding sessions. The "portable" aspect of this shredder is one of its best features. It fits easily under a desk or in a corner, and the integrated handle makes it simple to lift the shredder head off the bin when it’s time to empty it. For standard documents like junk mail or general office notes, it works quickly and reliably. The bin capacity is decent for light use, so you aren't constantly running to the trash can to empty it out. However, my one major hesitation is the cut style. While it is efficient, I wish it was a cross-cut model for increased privacy. Because it is a strip-cut shredder, it produces long vertical ribbons. While this is fine for most things, it doesn't offer the same level of security as cross-cut or micro-cut models that turn documents into tiny confetti. If you are shredding highly sensitive financial or personal information, you might feel a little uneasy about how easy it would be to piece a single strip back together. I’m giving this four stars because it performs exactly as advertised and is a great value for the price. It’s a dependable workhorse for basic shredding needs. But, if you are looking for maximum security for your sensitive documents, you might want to consider stepping up to a cross-cut version. For general home use, though, this is a very capable and convenient little machine.

Works perfectly! Well made and great value. The adjustable arm makes it work on any trash can. Would highly recommend

This shredder is perfect for any space! It’s compact, lightweight, and easy to move around - ideal if you need something portable. Despite its size, it handles up to 8 sheets with ease and works efficiently. One of my favorite features is that you don’t have to transfer the shredded paper from the container to a trash bag - you can place the shredder over the trash can and shred away. Easy quick mess free disposal. For the performance and convenience it offers, the price is just right. A great little machine for anytime shredding needs!

I am so happy with this purchase. It works like a charm. Definitely not quiet, but not terribly loud, but regardless that didn’t bother me. I have used it on top of two different trash receptacles and no issues. Never jammed. Instructions stated it can only shred up to 8 sheets, so I always shred max 5. Didn’t want to mess it up. Totally recommend! It was a great way to start the new year getting rid of old docs, mail, etc.

I bought this as I needed a shredder for my new place to discard of mail/documents with sensitive information on it, and I am so glad I did! All I do is use the adjustable handle and put this over my trashcan to shred my papers. I can shred a bunch of papers at one time, and it is quick too! The noise level isnt horrible, and it sounds just like any shredder would to be honest. But my favorite perk about it is that it does not get super hot. My old shredder was always so hot and I was concerned about it overheating. I dont have this issue with this one! Cant wait to keep using it in my home!

I debated on purchasing this one versus a more heavy duty version. Glad I hot this one. Does a great job of shredding just the way advertised. It will shut off when it gets to hot as described. Not an issue though. It just gives you a minute to take a break. I have been working on several years worth of papers and this works very well. It can easily shred 3-4 sheets at a time. Good power.

It works very well. I love how compact it is. Just pop it on an Amazon box and shred away! I don't suggest putting 8 sheets at a time through it, it will jam. 4 is fine. I was able to do years worth of shredding (about 200 pages) in one sitting without the machine overheating. Totally affordable price for the quality of machine. I got it on sale for $29 (CAN) ... very pleased with the purchase. Takes up very little room in my utility closet.

Funciona muy bien. El producto corresponde con lo ofrecido por el proveedor. Es compacta. Triture hojas, tarjetas y discos. Les recomiendo leer el manual para tener presentes los cuidados y precauciones que deben tenerse.

Muy buen producto, costo- beneficio. Facil de usar, el desecho de papel se remueve facilmente

I used this at home for almost 2 days straight shredding 10+ years of documents. It performed perfectly. It feels very well made and solid and I expect it to last for several years.

El producto es bueno. Tenía el problema de andar rompiendo papeles con la mano hasta que fueran cuadritos pequeños donde no fuera visible la información impresa, pero con este triturador ya me ahorro mucho tiempo. Me gusto el costo ya que es económico a diferencia de otros trituradores del mercado. Lamentablemente no viene con un bote, pero pude encontrar el adecuado en una tienda donde venden cosas de plástico. He triturado papel y lo único malo que vi es que a veces no corta el papel solo se ve marcado la navaja, pero para mis necesidades no le veo problema. También lo usé para cortar una tarjeta de crédito y tampoco tuve problema. Solo me falta triturar los CD's pero dudo que lo haga ya que no uso Cd's. Para una oficina donde necesitas hacer uso del triturador constantemente recomendaría compraras uno de mejor calidad. Peor si lo usas para el hogar o para triturar papeles de vez en cuando si te lo recomiendo.
