This is advertised as a light duty cross cut shredder but I have put mine to the limit and it just keeps on cutting. The pieces are small and thin and perfect for composting.

My new husband and I each bought one of these when we lived in separate states. We have both had nothing but good experiences with these. I cannot imagine how anyone could have destroyed one of these even though they are labeled as light duty. I guess you would have to really try....Anyway, we would both highly recommend them!

I just had my third Staples shredder die on me. The store let me exchange the first two. I'm not going to bother exchanging this one because I have no doubts that the fourth one will just die in a few months anyway.

I'd rather just buy a different brand that works. If I could give it zero stars I would.

I will not be buying any Staples brand office products again. Save yourself a lot of frustration and hassle and do not buy this shredder.

Plastic teeth broke upon first usage and vendor will leave you high and dry. I called Staples and this product is from 2005 and has been discontinued and storage by vendor is questionable. I've used shredders before and this vendor is not amiable to resolutions. Buyer beware.

The shredder mechanism dislodged from the holder and effectively began to shred the machine itself. Also, it produced sparks that shot down toward the shredded paper when switched to reverse. I would pay no more than $5 for this if I had to buy it again.
