Bonsaii Paper Shredder for Home Use, 8-Sheet StripCut Home Office Shredder, CD/Credit Card Shredder Machine with Overheat Protection, 3.4 Gallons Wastebasket

This is my second shredder as I destroyed the 1st one of same brand name. It worked great until the severe clog took place and attempting to remove the clogging didn't help; guess I burned up the motor before realizing it was clogged up. Eight pages is a lot of paper to shred at one time using this shredder and I didn't want to risk the same situation after learning my lesson. I only used two sheets at a time and put it through and the shredder accepted it with no problem. I did tear off any staples attached prior to shredding to be safe this time around and the light stayed green while using it. I had a lot to shred up after cleaning out last years old files, so it got a good workout. Just make certain the shredder container is emptied as soon as you notice the strips coming to surface as it could get caught back up in the shredder and cause a clog. I did enjoy working with the shredder and did not experience any woes as the 1st time around, so I'd say any issues I experienced was of my own making.It is noisy, but I can handle that. It did what it's suppose to do w/o any complications. The shredder also is lightweight enough to carry and work with in any area. I chose the kitchen so I could easily sweet up any paper shreds.Another nice thing about using a paper shredder is paper burns faster and is easy to ignite helping a fire get started and burn much faster; especially during the winter months standing in the cold weather. In a zone free country lifestyle, we can burn our paper which aids in using less landfill space and we have glass, metal etc., to dispose of. We never leave a fire unattended while burning.I would also suggest not to shred any papers that have sticky glue, sticky labels or that rubbery type that allows other paper to stick to, just to make sure the paper doesn't gum up the shredder. Having treated the shredder responsibly will allow it to work well and be a good investment for a long time.

small, which is what I wanted. It seems to work just fine, only used it a couple of times.

I purchased this shredded because if accumulated documents for yrs .. it was time to clean house! My intention with this particular shredder was to get rid of all the unnecessary clutter and organized what remained. The paper bin itself is not large at all it's suitable for random shredding but for continual use it's probably not ideal. That being said, in spite of having to unload the collection bucket every 5 minutes, I must say that the speed and functionality allowed the process to go smoothly. As I said I've had a lot of documents so any bin at this point probably wouldn't have sufficed but it's definitely a large volume of paper. Nevertheless ,has not overheated and has not jammed not once. its brought me peace or sorts lol ..I like the size because it doesn't take much room and you can hear the strength behind it. My suggestions are do not overload it if you can do under eight pages even better it'll go by super quick and we'll shred it much easily. This is more ideal for desk / home office use since it's for sporadic or daily use without a large amount being processed. Overall I must say I highly recommend it for price, delivery time, ( I ordered it last night and it was here at like 9:00 in the morning), the speed, the quality, the size and color blends right in! 👍 Please do know I have not tried the CD option yet. Stay well and have a good one!

So far it’s doing good. It shreds with no problem. I should have gotten a bigger one.

works well and hasn't jammedI use it at home whenever I need itgreat value for my moneycheck it out

Finally ordered a new shredder. My last one was given to me used was a 5 sheet strip shredder. I kept jamming it trying to shred too many pages at a ti.e so I upgraded to 8 page with CD& credit card functionality. It arrived in one day and I finally hot around to unboxing it & giving it a try. Works great

Mechanical aspect is very good.It shreds in strips so some words can be visible.Wish the basket was more stable.If you’re not real finicky, it will be fine.

This is a small home office shredder. Previously , I had one that could do 12 pages at a time. This one says it will do 8 … but I produce 12-15 lbs of paper to shred each month to Office Depot (3 miles from my home and they charge me 80-100 cents/pound) from my home business. I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend to anyone who has a small business but produces small amounts of shredding in the office! Robin Elwood
