Questions & Answers

Is this a big or small shredder?

This shredder isn't overly large or cumbersome. It shreds exceptionally well. br>The dimensions are 18 inches tall by 12 inches wide.

Is there a need for lubricant oil or sheets for the cutting blades?

The use of lubricant oil is recommended in the instruction booklet that comes with the shredder. I hope this has been of assistance.

What is the decibel level of the music?

Selected User Reviews For Aurora AU1480MA Professional Grade 14-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper and CD/Credit Card Shredder/ 30 Minutes Continuous Run Time, White/Gray

My fiancee is envious of what I'm doing! So I bought this shredder because my fiancé owns one
5/5

He has a device similar to the AU820MA. He likes it, and because his is a micro-computer, I considered getting one as well. Cut as well as you can for a lower price. However, I chose this because it is in WHITE! My office is very dark, so I'm brightening it up with white furniture, a white air purifier, and now a white shredder, and it looks AMAZING! It's also on wheels, quiet, and has an opening front door! It's difficult to lift and remove the shredded paper from the shredder head because it's so heavy. This version, on the other hand, allows you to open it from the front and includes a peep hole to check if the bin is full. It appeals to me. I have not attempted to shred a credit card or paper using staplers, and I have no plans to do so. As a result, I am unable to make a comment. I bought it primarily for the sake of aesthetics:.

Quiet and Trustworthy are two words that come to mind when describing this property
5/5

  I used to have an Aurora shredder when I was around 12-years-old. That lasted for about a year and a half 15 years ago. I was in need of a replacement and came across this. How many sheets of paper are there? Yes, but I usually just shred junk mail and old credit cards. It was a cross cut in the previous one. P4 micro cut sheds this one. It's a lot better than the last one I did. Large waste bin that easily pulls out for easy dumping, and it's much quieter than my old one. It will also run for a long time, unlike my previous one, which only lasted about six minutes before requiring a 45-minute cooling period. This one should last you at least 30 minutes. It will also shred CDs, old credit cards, and reduce them all to tiny bits if you need to destroy any old ones around. Some CD shredders will strip cut them, but this one will crush them. Strip-cut CDs can still hold a lot of data if it's technically possible to get it (though this isn't always the case). Who's going to go after your belongings in this manner? If you really need to get rid of data, you're probably not going to use one of these). br>br>It's safe to use because the bin won't work unless it's fully attached, and it's on wheels. This is probably my favorite part; I usually shred in front of the TV so I can watch something while destroying my monthly junk mail haul.

Solid
5/5

It's well-made and easy to use.   The "Aurora High-" is the subject of this review. 8 out of 10 for safety Micro-Surface Sheet Cut Paper, CD/DVD and Credit Card Shredder, White/Gray" was purchased for $86 on March 7th, 2021. The ship arrived on March 10th, 2021, with a total weight of 99 kilograms. br>br>As my first official shred, I got rid of an expired credit card by setting the unit to Auto, inserting the card into the section of the large slot, and the result was as shown in Picture 1. Next? (Video 1) An old CD I figured it'd be a micro-environment. But no, I'm not going to cut the CD. Picture 2 shows how to cut it into quarters. It's pretty cool that I didn't even have to push it down into the shredder after dropping it in, as shown. A forensics team might still be able to extract sensitive information from these large pieces. If you're disposing of highly sensitive data, throw it in the fire to melt it. br>br>I'm confident that this thing can easily chew through paper. I'll order some oil to keep the blades from drying out, and I'll use it every three months or so, depending on how much I use them. This shredder is a solid performer. The pull-out basket is great because I can just dump everything into a paper bag and toss it in the recycle bin when garbage day arrives. br>br>Note: If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, try using the words "creative Please familiarize yourself with the recycling laws and regulations in your area. Shredded paper should be placed in a paper (recommended) or plastic (accepted) bag before being placed in the blue recycle bin in California. Otherwise, rather than being recycled, it will most likely end up in a landfill.

It's a nice and quiet place
5/5

I bought this shredder primarily because of its low price, and I had no expectations for how well it would perform. This shredder, on the other hand, has surpassed my expectations. The shredder is quiet, can easily handle multiple pages, and can be used continuously for up to thirty minutes, as advertised. Only time will tell how long this shredder will last, but for now, it's a definite keeper.

Excellent value for money
4/5

It was difficult to strike a balance between features and price with so many shredders on the market, so I went with the Aurora micro shredder because of my privacy concerns. In addition, the price is reasonable for the features. For a shredder, it's relatively quiet, and the eight-sheet capacity is sufficient. I'll be able to catch the pellets with a kitchen garbage bag. I must have missed the fact that clearing or emptying the contents required literally lifting the power/cutting housing off. It's not as simple as quickly removing the container to empty it. My previous unit was the same way. As a result, I docked one star. I've been able to lift it out so far. With younger people, this is unlikely to be an issue. br>br>After about a month, it's been dependable.

It's adorable and peaceful
5/5

So far, everything seems to be going swimmingly. I never cram it with papers all at once, so I can't say how much you could shred in a single sitting. I usually stick to a 3-hour time limit. I like how it shreds four pieces at once and how quiet it is in comparison to other shredders. It looks nice in white, and I like how the drawer pulls out rather than having to remove the heavy top to empty it. Because it isn't as big as the ones at the office, I have to empty it more frequently, but I don't usually have as much shredding at once. I'm doing a big clean out, then only a few things a week, so the capacity will be fine, and I'm really enjoying the microshred cutting. That's exactly what I needed.
