Bonsaii 12-Sheet Cross Cut Paper Shredder, Home Heavy Duty Shredder, P4 Security(5x20mm), 5-Minute Continuous Shredding, Shreds Credit Cards, Mails & Staples, 21L Bin(C275-A)

This shredder is very efficient. The capacity is also good. I have been very impressed so far. No jamming but I put less through so that it won't happen. It was on offer when I bought it too.

Fantastic - this shredder positively rips through paper. It disappears faster than much bigger shredders I've used in the past. It's not too fussy - just stick to the no more than 12 sheets at a time. The speed it works at is remarkable and the end result is small, only about 1 x 4 cm pieces. The only difficult bit is emptying it without making a mess - but in this type of shredder there's no getting around that. I rarely write reviews - but this shredder is so good I just had to say so!

I was replacing a small regular shredder where the blades had been dulled and I was frustrated with the bin size. This is a cross shredder, so although the bin is still on the small side it holds a great deal more. Now it says it might take 12 sheets but I wouldn't try it as it starts to labour over 4 sheets. It does a good job, it's quick and has saved me emptying it every 5 minutes. I'm not giving 5 stars because I think they have played with the truth about the 12 sheets, but otherwise I'm happy with it.

I bought this to replace a lousy cheap thing in my office. My needs are modest. I have a Rexel domestic product at home that has chugged on for 20 years of self-employed duty, it shreds two pages at a time if they're not thick. It gets hot and is slow and easy to jam, but has been reliable. This shredder is about the same noise level as my Rexel, does cross cut pretty well, and has a good sized bucket for the shreds, with a window which is indeed very useful. It isn't particularly fast and it copes with maybe four sheets of paper, but I stick to two because more just slows it down, stresses the thing, and will reduce it's lifespan. It is listed as for light office duty, I think that's a good description. To me it's work is a few sheets regularly, with infrequent sessions shredding the odd ream of old files. If that is your workload, this will do fine. If you need something fast and dependable for regular office file shredding, can't take the time to remove staples &c, or need 12 sheets shredded at a time, I would suggest look at paying a fair bit more for a commercial-duty shredder which this does not pretend to be. It has a reverse 'always on' setting for clearing jams, but no 'always on' forward setting which can be useful. However, it stays on for a couple of seconds after the paper has passed through which goes a long way to clearing any impending jams.

Update 7 months after below review. Still going strong and has had a few major shredding episodes. I use lubricant sheet every now and then. Still impressed. Just used for first time. Poor recent shredder purchases - some 'deaths' due to my mistreatment, some not. Impressed so far. It is heavy (heavy and quite large shredding head). Blades look a lot more heavy duty than previous shredders advertised as same '12 sheet'. Dealt with 10 sheets paper and some card (4 sheets ) for around 7 mins pretty constant with no problem at all - no overheating - didn't feel warm even. Shred size is often a bit bigger than advertised (around 30x5 mm, not 20x5mm - no problem for me). Bin top is flat all around (helpful if used for other purposes when not shredding). If you have it on 'auto' setting it 'shreds' momentarily when turns on when putting lid back on. Not noisy compared to others I've had. Found size of bin intuitively helpful in not overheating - emptying once during 7 min session allowed some cooling ? Shredded credit cards with no problem. Will update if problems found in normal usage (absolutely no sticky labels, no overloading etc) . . . . . fingers crossed.

I was sceptical of the quality. Other user says it struggles with 12 pages. NONSENSE, I have a ton of personal papers that needed to be stredded. The instructions state remove large paper clips, but I didn’t want to risk it and removed the small ones, so i do not know if it will handle them. I managed to fill the container twice on auto so not 5mins continuous, but the whole session was at least 15mins in total with the shredder stopping every minute or two so I could get new stack (not because it could cope). It glided through the paper, with staples with little effort and it is on the quieter end of shredders I’ve used in the past. I think this shredder is worth the money I paid and believe it will last for sometime with a little TLC.

The product itself is excellent, but the delivery experience was disappointing. It was left in an unsecured location, and it could easily have been stolen. This isn’t acceptable, and I’d appreciate steps being taken to prevent this in future

Pretty pleased with this product so far but will need to see how long the blades stay sharp. I bought this to replace a heavy older shredder (different manufacturer) and I like the fact that this one has an arm to help with removing the motor to empty the bin. The Forward and Reverse commands also help clear the shredder of any stuck material. I clean the blades every time I use them to keep on top of clogging.

Love this shredder! The conatiner is bigger than the average 4 gallon. It is super quiet and shreds like a dream (very tiny pieces) . But I specially love that it has a handle, which makes it so much easier to lift the top. I put a garbage bag in the bin and it's so easy to empty! I haven't tried to shred more than 4 sheets at once and it does that with ease. Perfect for my needs.

Works great! Pretty small, but works so well cutting it all into confetti that it holds a LOT! Works great on lots of papers in a row, boxes from food packaging, and boxes from Amazon. Never overheated like my old one of the same size. A bit loud because it is surprisingly powerful. I only wish it had a pull-out drawer instead of a lift-off top! But...they added a handle to the top! Makes it so much easier to life, and to replace without pinching fingers. This is a quality machine. I keep it in the kitchen and put all paper and cardboard packaging through it, as well as any loose paper and mail we get. Saves so much space in the trash! I have multiple litterboxes and use shreds for a couple of them that I dump daily, stretching the cost of replacement litter used in the others. I also use it to shred cardboard for my garden. My daughter likes to shred construction paper then play with the confetti nuggets that come out in different thicknesses depending on how many she shreds simultaneously.

Funciona muy bien,recomendada

Perfecta siempre y cuando no introduzca más de 12 hojas por vez, cuando ya pones 10 a 12 el proceso se hace un poco más lento.

Works as described
