Insignia 10-Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder (NS-S10CCBK-C) - Only at Best Buy

I bought this because it had almost 5 stars but since it lasted me less than a month I am giving it 1 star. I have probably shredded maybe 5 pieces of mail and one credit card. The last time I tried to use it, it wouldn’t move or make a sucking sound so I pushed the button to reverse it thinking there was a jam. The teeth of the machine started pushing out of the top and there is now metal jumbled together coming out of the opening. I am so bummed that I didn’t have this happen within the return window. I knew I should have gone with a better brand. I have never had any good experiences with Insignia. Don’t even get me started on my not so smart TV. Do not buy Insignia, it is not worth the aggravation.

I’ve recently purchased this unit and it has exceeded my expectations. I had about 200 sheets of confidential information to put through this shredder. I started with 8 or 10 sheets and found the unit did the shredding but it sounded as if it was straining. Since I had just replaced a unit I’d overworked I cut back to 5 sheets each time and the speed improved considerably and the unit appeared to handle the job easily. I worked non stop at a relaxed pace and the shredder never shut down, overworked. Unit is well priced and seems ideal for home use.

This is a great product, easy out of the box setup and quick to use. I will recommend this to anyone who wants a handy shredder at home/office.

This machine is much quieter than my previous brand, which was good, since I live in an apartment building. HOWEVER, after five minutes of constant shredding, the machine lights come on saying it's overheating . . . and I have to wait for HALF AN HOUR before I can start up again. Which I did . . . and within TWO MINUJTES of shredding, the darn machine quit again. I've got boxes and boxes of paper to shred, and with this machine, it's going to take a whole MONTH!!!! Spend more money and get a half-decent machine. This might be good for shredding receipts, but NOT good to shred large documents!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love this shredder!!!!!!! We upgraded our 10-year old shredder that cut the paper in small rows and could only handle realistically 5-sheets of paper, instructions stated 10. We had 10+years of bank statements, tax documents, etc to shred. Normally, this would take us hours to shred took only 45 minutes with the new Insignia shredder. The new shredder did cross shredding which is small pieces of paper versus the long rows. I am sold on the volume this can handle, it's much quieter than the old, and when your done shredding, just use the reverse to get the remains removed from the blades. No touching the paper that is crammed under the blades - no cut fingers, etc... Love this!
