Aurora AU1285MD Compact Desktop-Style High Security 12-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper and CD/Credit Card/Junk Mail Pullout Basket Shredder, White/Black

Small compact shredder, great size for a small space

This replaced our older shredder. I wish it came in black, but it so much quieter than our older shredder. We really like it. Havent oiled it yet but will be doing that soon to keep it running smoothly.

Quiet and powerful. Convenient size!

I like the results of shredding. (almost confetti like pieces). The shredder is easy to empty into a plastic bag. The small pieces prevent air from making the shreds bulky and making a mess during the emptying process. Even though the shredder is smaller than my previous cross shredder. I can shred more paper, and In addition, the unit is not as heavy to lift when getting emptied. I am happy with my purchase.

This paper shredder is all that and quiet too.

just want we needed for our home office compact and efficient

Is Excellent Item,Excellent seller but needs provement shipping thanks God didnt damage the item needed extra box not like this

Impossible to find a product with consistently great reviews these days. So far I am happy with the shredder, I wanted something compact and it fits in the perfect place. Bin is not large, but the tradeoff for fitting in the right space works for me. Not trying to use maximum number of sheets and have not tried CDs. Id rather take it a little more gently and have it last. Quiet and efficient.

Almost 20 years ago, I purchased a cross-cut shredder from Staples. Before that shredder, I had gone through multiple shredders in just 2-3 years. The Staples shredder was sturdy and powerful. But the motor finally gave out on my recently. :( I did not think I could replace it with a machine as good. Although I cannot say how well it will ultimately hold up, this unit is quiet, sturdy and well designed. The only thing I dont love is that the shreddings have a lot of static electricity, so when I empty the bin, they fly a bit and dont all make it into the garbage bag or box and some stick in the bin. However, this is minor, and Im going to try spraying the bin with Static Guard.

Oh my goodness. This is so quiet and runs so smoothly. I ❤ it.
