Out of the box, it was easy to set up. It was basically plug and play. Other than that, it shreds paper very well. The size of the shredded paper was very small, basically 3/16"x1/2". During the shredding process, it was fairly quiet as well, way quieter than my previous shredder. As for the housing, it's pretty solid where the basket slid in and out pretty easy and also locks in place when inserted. The switches and buttons are pretty large and easy to activate or manipulate. Overall, this is one good paper shredder for the price you pay. This is way more affordable than the other brand names out there and does the same or even better shredding in comparison.

I bought this shredder for security (I don't like throwing credit card offers and ads like that away without shredding them first), but I discovered that it is exceptionally useful for something else. I used to just tear or cut clean paper and cardboard to put in my compost bin, and on a whim, I tried putting a single piece of plain cardboard through the shredder. It worked. Then I tried some more. I sat in my laundry room shredding cardboard (we've recently moved, and had a ton of empty cardboard boxes to get rid of) for almost an hour, and the shredder never overheated, never jammed, never did anything except dice that cardboard into perfectly fine, compostable material. Even better, i could take out the bin with no issues, no spills, no bags, and take it straight outside and dump directly into the compost bin. I don't usually leave reviews, but this one is worth it. Paper, cardboard, you name it, this thing eats it, no problem. It saved me an incredible amount of time and effort, and is more than worth the price.

For home use, this shreader has an enormous amount of bang for the buck. It easily handles multiple sheets at a timeas well as individual credit cards. I had a significant stack of papers to shread and was able to do them without having to wait for it to cool down. Made in Vietnam.

Good product, but the motor is sort of slow.

Broke after the first use!

The shredder works as good as expected and does everything as advertised. Very satisfied with the purchase.

This is a replacement for the same shredder that was great, until my grandson jammed it with too much paper.

This unit works very well and is much quieter than our previous model. We also like that you don't have to use a trash bag inside of it.

Easy to set up, basically plug it in, run the included lubrication sheet, and use. Good size with large capacity.

Replaced shredder with this new one and love the micro cut! Papers feed through quickly and dispenser is much easier to empty than my previous shredder.
