Product Dimensions: 14.41" W x 11.02" L x 19.33" H Item weight: 22.4 pounds shipping weight: 25.73 pounds Review: Great shredder for home or businesses - Actually this is one of the better shredders I’ve bought. First thing that was noticed was the difference between this and other paper shredders in the past with how loud they are while in operation. This definitely is the best as far as quietness while it is doing its job. Portability is very easy with the addition of the roller wheels on this product. The cross-cut gives you a secure feeling once you see how well the documents have been shredded. I thought this might be on the side of being to large for the area Ì needed it to go in, but it ended up being a perfect fit for home use. I would recommend this particular shredder above several others if you are looking for a good, secure shredder. Review: So far so good, nice shredder not too noisy shreds really well. - Only had it a few hours. Having saved lots of personal info I didn't want to trash without shredding since my old machine died. I've gone thru enough for two bins. So far so good. I haven't tried more than 10 sheets. It slows a bit on 8 or more, but works. I'll likely keep my feeds to 6 sheets just to make it easy. Ran it practically non-stop for 30 minutes twice and no issues. Does a real nice job cross-cut shredding. Seems to match its P4 claims on shredding sizes. Shredding unit itself is quite heavy. It rolls easily on the wheels it comes with though they are on the small side. After the first bin I oiled it and it seemed quieter. Maybe it needs oiling a bit when you first get it. It is fairly quiet in any case when running. Cord is nice and long. I do think the lower part of the unit and paper bin are on the flimsy side. All a snapped together affair and the bin has some grooves/wheels to guide it in and out, but I wonder how well it will lock in place with more use. And you'll want to handle it with care as it flexes just taking it in and out and handling to empty the paper. Seem like for the price this plastic part could have been a millimeter thicker and more robust. I haven't tried credit cards or CDs. I'll keep staples and paper clips out of it. Why abuse your machine? I usually use some small bolt cutters on credit cards. Easy to snip into pieces. I'll just shred paper I think. Pretty happy, it is more powerful and shreds much smaller than my old cheap machine from Office Depot. ## Features - High security micro-cut with 12 sheet capacities; destroys CDs, DVDs, credit cards and small paper clips - Shreds paper, CDs, DVDs, credit cards into small pieces (5/32 by 15/32 inches), security level P-4 - Nonstop 60-minute continuous run time.

During the pandemic we decided to do a bit of "Swedish death cleaning" and among the things to get rid of were a couple of 4 drawer file cabinets with every drawer stuffed. Our "current" shredder still works, but with some digging I found it is only rated for 2 minutes of shredding with 15 minutes to "cool down". Using it to clear out old records would take months at that rate (which is one reason it kept piling up). When I found this Aurora AU1210MA with a shred time of 60 minutes, I knew it would allow me shred theses files as I went through them instead of piling up papers to shred later or haul off and pay to have shredded. It is rated to shred up to 12 pages at a time for 60 minutes at a time. I generally try to feed no more than 6 pages at a time (not by counting, but just the feel of the total thickness) and also listen to the motor so I don't stress the motor or drive mechanism. It's very quiet, far quieter than any of the 5 or 6 cheaper ($50-$75) shredders we have owned with all previous ones either breaking some plastic gear or overheating and locking up (not while using, but after the fact). So the highlights why I gave this 5 stars 1 - 60 minute run time 2 - auto shut-off when the bin is full or not fully closed 3 - auto shut-off if it overheats 4 - auto shut-off if it overloads The full bin shut-off is really nice on the Aurora because what happened with most of our others was that the bin would fill, then paper would jam in the cutters and get smashed all up inside the top of the shredder which would require lots of digging, prying, and / or disassembly to clear it out. Additionally this will shred credit cards and CDs. I did shred a couple of credit cards and like the paper, it turns them into little arrows about 1/2" long x 3/16" wide with a point at one end and a forked tail at the other. I certainly hope this shredder continues to hold up because I am very satisfied and expect to get many years of service out of it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aurora AU1210MA Professional Grade High Security 12-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper/CD and Credit Card/ 60 Minutes Continuous Run Time Shredder - Amazon Basics Paper Shredder Sharpening and Lubricant Sheets - Pack of 24 - Fellowes Powershred Performance Shredder Oil, 12 oz.
