Pros

We're very pleased with this shredder and hope it will last as long or longer than our older unit. It has a 1 year manufacture warranty, but adding a 4 year extended warranty sounds like good insurance if you use it often. Highly recommend it.

The wheels roll nicely. Wheels roll smoothly (they come locked so if you can't push it, check that! This model is comparable in size and weight. It's also relatively heavy and substantial. Is a large unit.

Waste bin fits snuggly into the unit and hasn't given any angst or trouble. Small pieces seem to settle in the bin way more compactly than the larger strips our older unit produced. Trash compartment conveniently slides out for easy emptying.



Cons

It makes a clanking, grinding sound that sounds like a car engine with loose parts inside the engine block. It rattles when moved and sometimes during shredding. The overload light kept coming on and stopping the shredding (overheats come on) shreddin...  Read More

Price

Haven't had it very long, but to date it is doing the job.


It served it's time and finally gave up.

Packaging/appearance


The shredder handles multi-page envelope contents (simultaneously, as one "stack"), and credit cards, well.

Competitiveness


While the shredder does a good job, it conveys the paper sheets more slowly than our previous royal model (which, by the way, i...  Read More


Better than two others i have used in the past, including one amazon basic one which i'm still using in a different location.


I had older royal shredder and it doesn't even compare.


I was going to go for a bonsaii shredder for the shorter cool down times, but went with this because of better reviews.

    I already had a micro cut shredder but it works for maximum 7 sheets of paper and some paper is thicker than other basic white paper and my parents had boxes and boxes of documents that needed to be shredded

    The shredder is very loud like the revving of a mustang car


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its difficult hearing above it on a normal level and would definitely awake a light sleeper but i love it and dont care about the sound
