Easy to assemble, good instructions, quiet, works great!
I have only used this once since receiving it yesterday, but I am so well pleased by its style and function, I had to add my review right away. I have a smaller version by the same brand/ company that shreds fewer pages and doesn’t have wheels. It is okay, but noisier than I hoped and doubted it could manage the amount of shredding I need to tackle, semed a bit stressed after a short session of shredding and therefore I have only used it a few times. I decided to try this upgraded model. So far very pleased with my decision. The pages feed smoothly and quietly, more than any of the other shredders I have used (one my husband had that we gave away before we moved was not too noisy but was not a cross cut and it was a bit heavy and cumbersome) This is much lighter and the wheels area grat benefit. I love the pull out drawer and greater capacity it holds with the window to see as the the bin fills up. Plus I can open it to spred out the pile and push it down to keep the paper from blocking the blades and allow.it to hold more and more paper. It handled a full shopping bag of bills, documents, mail etc. in about 20 mins. Probably could have taken even less time, but I wasn’t doing a full 18 pages each time. Love that I could do a variety of paper types and not have to unfold everything. If a small portion of a smaller paper didn’t completely shreed it stopped and stayed where I could easily flip and feed again without jamming. There was no jamming, but I feel the reverse switch feature would handle if needed. And no smell of a motor being overly worked. This model makes this chore a breeze., almost fun even. Highly recommend so far, but I feel confident it will hold up.

This is a work horse!
If you have been using those $80 shredders, this thing will amaze you! It does one thing, and does it well. In a week, I have shredded three garden trash bags of paper, including over a dozen old cards. No jam or stopping from heat issues, yet!. I was using two old & cheap Fellowes shredders that had a 10 minute run with 60 minute rest rating. They would slow me down jamming and overheating. Then, one just failed and the other started sounding like the motor was giving out.. This Bonsaii has already done 3 times the shredding in less than half the time! I am about half way done and expect this shredder to keep going for years.. The 18 sheets warning is probably for #10 paper. I am shredding thicker stock, usually old bank statements and bills. I’d say about 10 of those sheets is the limit, but my old “8 page” units could only do about 5 of them.Pros: – It is relatively quiet. – It just keeps going. – It shreds two credit cards side-by-side.Cons: – The basket was broken just above the clear plastic window, making removal and insertion feel a bit flimsy. I went ahead and taped the break, because this thing is so much better than what I was using, and I wanted to get this shredding job done. I have started an email with Bonsaii to see if I can get a new basket.- Nothing else, really…Gripes: – I just bought this for $169.99, and 10 days later it has dropped to $142.79. Do I go to the trouble to return it and reorder it just to save $27.20 (~16%)? Maybe… I need to get this shredding done and this Bonsaii is doing it (:>)I would suggest this unit to any heavy shredder in the home and small office environment!

Amazed at how durable it is
This model of the Bonsaii paper shredder surprised me. It has performed so well and is so sturdy that it’s hard to believe the price. There are definitely less expensive units but my past experience with those has not been as positive as with the Bonsaii 18 page model. If it fits in the slot, it will shred it. It handles staples and credit cards. It is supposed to shred CDs but I have not tried that. So far, it has only stopped when it is full. My only complaint is the width of the input opening. It’s just slightly over 8.5 inches. However, I knew that when I bought it so, no surprise.

Excellent quality/price for home use.
For years, I was spoiled on an industrial shredder at work like something from a Mad Max movie. One day, a psycho office admin “cleaned it up” (threw it away). So many tears. Ah well.Though not as obscenely muscular, this little shredder is a respectable / affordable home replacement. It handles the claimed number of sheets just fine, so it’s pretty fast, and it seems quiet to me. I have not run it continuously for hours, in order to check for thermal shutdown, but so far it seems solid & durable. The bin is reasonably sized, and easy enough to access (if just a little plastic-y). Fitting in collection bags is slightly contrived: I tear a little hole in the bag to hook it (see pic), but that hardly seems a reason to skip this decent shredder. It doesn’t take up a too much floor space. I like the switch options that include sensor shredding (only shreds upon sensing paper being fed); that works well. The window – to see when it fills up – is nice and large, for easy viewing. I haven’t yet tried on plastic disk media (like data DVDs), credit cards, or door-to-door marketers, but I like that it’s designed to handle them (well, two out of three).Yes, I would repeat buy / recommend it.(I also bought the suggested lubrication sheets to use periodically. Their recommended frequency of use is surprisingly low. So the trick will be remembering where I put the darn lube sheets, when they eventually become needed, … oh, and remembering to use them at all.)

Excellent shredder for large projects
Not only can this shredder handle an impressive amount of sheets at one time, the run time is exceptional. We needed a shredder to deal with a large amount of old documents. The shredder we started with was very underpowered, and featured a 3 minute run time followed by a 30 minute cool down. At that rate we’d never get the job completed. In contrast, this shredder ran for days without jamming and it never overheated.

I had a cheaper shredder but the amount of shredding I do I needed something bigger to do the job. Well I am not disappointed with my purchase, this machine is a work horse. Hasn’t heated up or jammed on me once. I use the recommended lubricant sheets before every use. I would recommend this and in future would order it again.

Unwrap it carefully. Buy the oil but not the bags.I am trying to be as green as possible and in early retirement I have been shredding a lot of old work related documents as well as my daily i newspaper and as much of our lockdown delivery cardboard as fits through the shredder.First impressions: It arrived as predicted within 48 hours and was well packed and Undamaged.As described by others the Castors look fragile and are not free running even after lubrication.It was bought to replace well used (10yrs+ ) but jammed and burned out high end domestic Fellowes machine with a easy to empty basket. ( see comparison in photo ).I am using the plastic bag that came around it in the box, it was also supplied with a single bag inside as well. Buying commercial see through polythene shredder bags will be convenient but they cost 16p each and wonât biodegrade.I oiled the cutter blades before use.Performance after filling one bag to brim:Noise – much, much less noisy than my old machine and more pleasant pitch – you could work in the same room.Capacity- 20 mins continuous use including up to 16 sheets of professional magazine shiny paper, several i newspapers torn in half lengthways, amazon cardboard book delivery cartons folded double thickness to full width (22cm)I didnât try it on copier paper.The cooling fan comes on while in use but at no time did it run over after finishing shredding an item.As reported by others, for security purposes, the chads are wider than other machines but for composting this does not matter. I suspect this also the reason for its quietness and speed.It cross cut the newspaper much more effectively and therefore the shreddings sat down in the bin more easily. As a result I got a lot more in the bag than my old machine. I try not to compact the shreddings as that defeats the speed of compost making.Speed: for home use it was comparable to the old Fellowes and for a once a day session I am contentbut you cannot fill an auto feed and walk away.There was a slight delay on both starting and starting to reverse – this might be a good thing. It stopped 2 seconds after the cutters cleared. It stopped automatically on the first fill but I am not sure if that is a feature.Ergonomics: itâs lower than the old machine but the slot is same distance from the front. This made it more of a strain to feed it while standing but itâs shape and size and the (careful use of ) the castors mean it would be ideal for sitting under a desk.The bag sits over the rim at the back and sides and I did not have a significant spillage, the clips at the front are a bit fiddly but once you master the technique it clips in and prevents leaks at the front.I would not want to tip the shreddings straight from the bin into a plastic bin bag as the plastic felt quite fragile and the rectangular shape would not fit easily into the bag for a second fill and protruding plastic lugs would tear the bag. But transferring shreddings form the transparent bag to another bag was pure dead simple.Reliability: no commentExcellent first impressions. If it lasts then it should be more than adequate to supply my Allottment with brown material to go with the kitchen waste and grass clippings

This is the second model of these I have bought for my office and have been more than happy with both. The unit says is can handle 18 sheets at a time – but I feel that unless you are only using 70gsm paper, the correct number would be more reasonable at 7 sheets (80gsm). The cross cut is a good feature for destroying confidential items and the box is easy to remove and empty, with a visible window to see when needed. The shredding is quite quick and although a little noisy, on stays on for a short while due to the automatic cut off. Also, after it detects you have finished shredding, it does a little ‘reverse’ to ensure no blockages.
