Pros & Cons

Pros

This is my third micro-cut shredder from aurora i got in the past 6 years of heavy-duty use and it's a good shredder. The shredded pieces are very small which is great. Basket is a little small but still holds a load of shredded paper.



Cons

Although supposedly it's under warranty, it's not worth trying to get it repaired by the company because i'd have to pay shipping costs which are astronomical. Will be tried to get a refund, but not very hopeful. It advertises backed by 1 year warrant...  Read More

This one is too small. This is unacceptable. Nothing major. Hugely disappointed. This shredder is a headache.

The basket is plastic/rubber and barely supports the heavy shredding mechanism. Struggles to shred 3 pieces of paper at a time. It only shreds in reverse.

It smells like it can easily catch on fire and i'm afraid it's going to combust. Overheats in about 7-10 minutes of use. Should have lasted longer based on the cost.

Quality


This is awesome quality and easy to use


It crosscuts into small pieces has no problem processing 4 sheets and has been very dependable


This is my second machine purchased and of course right after the return date it jammed


It worked for a few years then part of the protective guard snapped

Price


For the price this shredder is quiet


Its at a good price it looks nice and it works


Still a very good product for the money


Great for the money just remember to oil it once a month and itll keep going for a long time

Shipping


I didnt receive any review request on the delivery either

Packaging/appearance


Found the shredded paper from this shredder makes good packing material for fragile objects

Competitiveness


The sheets clean the blades of the paper dust and i use swiftersheets to clean paper dust off the basket

    A bit noisy unfortunately i think they all are that way


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There have been times when i sort of just shove a stack of papers down in there and can hear it slow down in order to shred but its never gotten stuck or jammed and i was concerned about having a shredder that could take more than just a couple pages at a time


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Pages of paper and credit cards


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It works ok but it’s too loud makes noise


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Since i use a liner i have to periodically lift the lid to check the shred level


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However a pull out bin can be finicky with a liner which this isn’t
