Pen+Gear 6-Sheet Micro-cut Paper/Credit Card Shredder with 3.4 Gallon Bin, Black,Home and Office use

Compact! Crosscut-style is the ideal shredder for maximum security. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that this shredder motor has a handle to lift it out of the bin. It is a workhorse. I put it through a variety of tests with different sizes, shapes, and textures of documents. It would pause for about a second (like catching its breath) and right back to it. I ran out of scratch paper trying to max it out. I confess I didn't attempt to deliberately overheat. On continuous feed, I was almost certain that would cause it to overheat (though, again, not trying to) but it didn't. Not sure what more can be said about a shredder or its performance. Now if any shredder can find a way to clean itself without leaving confetti in its wake, that would be the icing on the cake for me.

I am so impressed by the size and design of this Shredder. The best features are the front window and the handle! It can shred 6 sheets of paper, but I found that a bit too thick to go through smoothly, so will only shred 4 sheets and it shreds to tiny pieces! It is not very loud and has Forward, Reverse, On and Auto settings and they all worked as expected. I am really happy with this product and highly recommend if you do not do a lot of heavy shredding. Great for personal use.
