  • Best Shredder Ever
Size: 8 Sheet
It is a great price and is very durable and efficient, and shreds 8 papers at one time. It’s not too big, but has a decent size waste container, so it doesn’t need to be emptied too often. It’s definitely worth the money, and gets the job done. Securing your private details, and info are entirely shredded. ... show more

  • The shreadinator
Size: 15 Sheet - new model
Awesome shredder, gobbles up papers and staples without pause. Even will shred bills etc. envelopes and all. As far as noise goes its a shredder so there is some noise but nothing too loud. The bin removes easily for emptying and the shredded results are truly shredded. I was not impressed with the credit card shredding as it was not in little pieces but for the small percentage of times I need to destroy them scissors work wonders. I used this shredder a ton and it never overheated on me and only jammed once when I got carried away and tried to shred too much in one go, however the reverse gear spit it out and all was well. This is a great option for a more powerful shredder than the standard offering but still small enough to work in a home office setting or even a small commercial office setting. ... show more

  • Solid no frills shredder
Size: 8 Sheet
We purchased this for home use and have to say that it works well, is not overly loud, and just feels sturdy. Seems to be well made. Great for all our home office needs. Would definitely buy again if I needed another one.

  • Reliable Shredding Performance with Amazon Basics 12-Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder
Size: 12 Sheet
I recently purchased the Amazon Basics 12-Sheet Cross-Cut Paper and Credit Card Shredder for my home office, and it has proven to be a dependable addition to my document disposal routine. Here's my experience and why I've given it a four-star rating: Efficient Shredding Capacity: The shredder's ability to handle up to 12 sheets at a time is commendable, making it suitable for moderate shredding tasks in a home office setting. It smoothly shreds paper, credit cards, and even staples, saving me the hassle of removing them before shredding. Cross-Cut Security: The cross-cut shredding mechanism adds an extra layer of security compared to standard strip-cut shredders. It effectively turns sensitive documents into confetti, providing peace of mind when disposing of personal or confidential information. Compact Design: The Amazon Basics shredder boasts a compact design that doesn't take up much space in my home office. The integrated handle on the top makes it easy to move around when needed. It fits neatly under my desk, allowing for convenient access without compromising on office aesthetics. Relatively Quiet Operation: The shredder operates at a reasonable noise level, which is appreciated, especially in a home environment. While it's not completely silent, the noise level is not overly disruptive, allowing me to shred documents without causing a disturbance. Easy to Empty Bin: The bin is easy to access and empty. The transparent window on the front provides a clear view of the shredding capacity, allowing me to know when it's time to empty the bin. The pull-out design simplifies the process of removing and replacing the bin. Automatic Start and Stop: The shredder features convenient automatic start and stop functionality. It begins shredding when paper is inserted and stops when the job is complete, contributing to a smoother and more user-friendly experience. Affordable Price Point: Considering the shredder's capacity and cross-cut capabilities, the Amazon Basics 12-Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder offers good value for its price. It provides a solid balance between performance and affordability. Minor Jams on Occasion: While the shredder generally performs well, I have experienced occasional paper jams, especially when pushing the sheet limit. While these jams are easy to clear with the provided reverse function, it's worth noting for those planning to shred near the maximum sheet capacity. Conclusion: The Amazon Basics 12-Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder is a reliable and reasonably priced solution for home office document disposal needs. Its efficient shredding capacity, cross-cut security, and user-friendly features make it a solid choice for those seeking an affordable and compact shredder. ... show more

  • Solid Quality No Problems Great Price
Size: 12 Sheet
I have been using this shredder since 2021 and have had no problems or issues and it is still running strong. I use it almost daily and have had no issues. You do need to be careful that you don't put soft plastic envelopes through it as that can clog the roller cutters ( but they are pretty easy to clean if you do accidently do that). Overall I'm happy with this little workhorse and pleasantly surprised by the longevity and reliability. I highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Very compact and powerful
Size: 8 Sheet
I replaced my old shredder with this one. It is smaller and more powerful. Does a great job shredding and it easy to empty.

  • Does what it says
Size: 8 Sheet (New Model - Black)
It shreds into tiny bits. Seems to operate fine. Like the handle. Compact and sits out of the way. Kinda fun. Other night i saw a dude just hanging around in the dumpster at my complex, smoking a cig and digging through trash looking at stuff. Called the cops and they didn't seem to be concerned. Uhhh... yeah I used to just dump expired mustard or salad dressing that I didn't like on stuff before taking it out. But this is much more effective and elegant, lol. ... show more

  • Just what I was looking for
Size: 8 Sheet
This is just what I was looking for, for my home office. it is small (good size), cuts paper well, has the credit card shredder, and at a good price point. I have had a lot of success with Amazon Basics I have purchased, and this is no exception.
