Customer Review: Excellent value for the money
Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't want to spend too much on a shredder, given that it's for personal use. However, at the same time I didn't want to be a cheapskate and run the risk of buying that wouldn't last. So far I'm very happy with the decision I made to purchase the Aurora 8-sheet shredder. I had a decent amount of things to shred when I first got it, and as described in the owners manual the Aurora will automatically shut itself off if it's overheating. I have to admit that for about 15 minutes all I could think of was whether it truly was overheating or whether it had simply died, but in the end it did exactly what it was supposed to do. If you're looking for a decent shredder for personal use that won't break the bank, you'd be wise to consider this one.Customer Review: Great since the Shredder extends to fit larger wastebaskets!

If you're looking for a home shredder that will do the job without costing you an arm and a leg, this is definetly it! If the wastebasket that comes with the shredder is "too small" for your use, simply apply "common sense" by putting the shredder over a larger wastebasket! Ignore all of these ho-hum reviews gripping about the wastebasket size by describing it as a "little shredder" that does "small jobs" which require "frequent emptying". Nonsense! The moment mine arrived, I took it out of the box, disgarded it's wastebasket and put the shredder over my larger wastebasket then began shredding! The shredder works fine! It's quiet and adequate for home use. For commercial use, go elsewhere. No problems here what-so-ever. Love it!Customer Review: Not for Businesses. OK for home use!!

I was a little disappointed with the size of his paper shredder. But it works effficiently and has a credit card shredder and CD shredder.
The basket it very small so you have to empty it often, if you do a lot of shredding.
This is not a shredder for a business, but it is fine for home use where you shred only a few documents a week.
It you do a lot of shredding at once, the machine will overheat and stop. The instructions tell you if this happens, wait twenty minutes and then try again. I did and it worked fine.
One thing I didn't realize when I ordered it is that it is not a cross cut shredder. But for what I use it for, that doesn't make much of a difference to me.
Customer Review: Great shredder for a great price
Summary: 5 Stars
I dont use shredders regularly. I clear out old statements year-end, so I wanted a way to destroy them without resorting to burning it in my kitchen sink, lol. I received the shredder, and I used it for about 2 hrs. It eats up paper just perfectly. I did 4-8 sheets at a time. It only powered off twice in those 2 hrs because of overheating, in which you will be aware because you'll smell it. Turn it to 'off' for 12 minutes or so, then you can resume use. Overall, it was a bargain and it worked just fine. It seems to be good for spuradic home use only, not for business or continuous everyday usage. It's a strip shredder that cuts paper into strips less than 1 cm wide, so it is pretty safe to guard against id theft.Customer Review: Very Pleased!!

I bought this economical shredder for a rather large home project. I actively participate in recycling and was looking for a shredder that meets the criteria for our local recycle program. Strip shredding - yes...all other cuts - no.
This little shredder has effortlessly chewed up my mountains of papers without overheating or screeching...nice:) And now I can rid my home of stacks of unwanted paper without the guilt of wasting by being able to recycle!! I will also mention that I feel very secure that sensitive information would be virtually impossible to read or copy from these thin little strip shreds.
Cannot praise this awesome little life saver enough!! Highly recommend!
