About Aurora AU1645XA 16-Sheet Cross-Cut Paper and CD/Credit Card Shredder
Overall Feedback:
75% positive
91% appreciated the security level, while 9% were not satisfied
Although it is supposed to be a cross-cut shredder, most of the paper shredded is actually strips about 1 to 1 1/2' long.
93% highlighted the jam prevention
The updated model has a better jam prevention mechanism as it does not have a force feed button for paper jams.
For two weeks now, I've been effortlessly shredding boxes of garage-stored papers without fail or jam.
87% were satisfied with the bin capacity, however, 13% weren't
I appreciate the large bin size of the shredder, which means less frequent emptying compared to a shredder with a smaller basket.
It is difficult to remove loose papers from the head on pull-out bin type shredders with the head stationary.
The bin is smaller than before and very staticky. Hair, dust, and paper shreds clung to the outside from the moment I removed it from the box.
90% appreciated the shredding speed, but 10% did not
I discovered mounds of paper bunched around the gears when I flipped the shredder over to empty the container.
88% liked the shredding capacity however, 12% didn't
I never insert more than 2 sheets at a time into the shredder to avoid wear and tear, even though it claims to shred 10 sheets at a time.
