AmazonBasics 12-Sheet Cross Cut Paper With CD and Credit Card Shredder With 18 Liter Waste Basket Capacity

Very good cross cut 12 sheet Shredder. Appearance is the best in its class, supports shredding of paper, CD / DVD, Credit / Debit cards through separate slots, has automatic mode which senses material insert and starts automatically, reverse mode to remove anything stuck. Has nice basket to collect shredded material with transparent window that shows the filled-in level. Overall happy with the product!

What I received looks different from the images posted... but works the same so not really an issue.I tried it with a bunch of old documents and cards. Works well enough but here are the things I have noticed:- It takes a while to get the right angle in inserting the documents.- The bin gets full quickly. I shredded 60 or so pages and the bin filled up twice and then some.- You can still make out the words in the shredded strips. If you value privacy and can afford it, better to go for a micro-cut shredder.

Very easy to use at an unbeatable price. I was able to shred 15 A4 size sheets at once as well as couple of plastic cards. Blades are razor sharp and faced no issue till date after using for 2 months now. It should be noted here that this shredder is particularly effective for home use due to 2 main reasons - 1. The volume it holds is pretty small and hence you may have to manually empty it frequently before your next shredding 2. It shreds to the extent as per specifications and hence if you still require smaller shredding piece, then it's recommended to go for an expensive shredder with still smaller width shred size. But for home use, this is it

This little shredder so far is durable and fast! I am very happy with its price, this little guy helped us clear out 20 years of paper backlog! The Shredder can be used for about 30mins before it overheats and yes you do have a warning light to let you know when to stop using it. You also have a light to let you know when the bin is overloaded or misaligned and you need to clear it.I recommend purchasing shredder oil with it or best use some trusty coconut oil and it works fine.We Recommend buying this shredder and give it5*/5*✔️!

I had purchased this shredder in January, 22. However, after its use just for six months, it has become non-functional. Its censors fail to detect the paper fed into it. It has thus become useless. It is a complete waste of money.I wish to exchange it for a new machine within the warranty period, but do not know whom to approach.

edit: 2nd time was the charm; the replacement unit arrived without any damagesThe motor unit is heavy but it is well protected inside the package. However, the trash can is just inside the cardboard and the weight makes it susceptible to breakage. That is what happened to my first delivered item - waiting for the replacement now.Amazon should offer replacement of just the trash can instead of the entire unit - but they probably don't even touch whatever comes from the manufacturer. In the meanwhile, for the sake of a 100 rupee (and few grams in weight) trash can the 5k worth (and 5kg weight) unit gets exchanged

It could have been better!

It shreds paper in just two-steps - switch and shred. However, it makes more than the required sound when shredding paper.
