Aurora AS610C 6 sheet cross-cut shredder with waste bin,
This is the 2nd shredder I have purchased. My first was a small table top one, which was very good and worked hard & well, but it finally gave up the ghost.
So, I decided I needed a slightly larger one. This one was perfect.
The main thing I notice is the QUIET engine noise when shredding, also it does not need emptying as often as my other.
I would recommend this to anyone.
I am very pleased with it.

|My first Shredder.,
Trying out this has been a new experience for me. First impression is that the operating limitations in the instructions are very conservative, i.e. 25 passes per day (2 min ON/20 Min OFF). I suppose that might have assumed a regular six sheet engorgement. My personal experience has been approximately 2 or 3 sheets at a time at a leisurely pace and the little monster has kept its cool all day long. Result : over two days three bin-bags full of shredded old bills and statements. Certainly at the price I paid this is an impressive little machine. Retired now, I am a design engineer and find the machine stylish and efficient. However, like a wind-up watch it is something with which one has to build a relationship, e.g. being especially careful not to overfill the bin. Upon ordering I had decided not to buy the suggested lubricating oil. A good decision as the instructions state : “It is not necessary to oil an Aurora shredder – - – ” The single sheet Operating Manual is very clear and I suggest reading it carefully before powering up. Being my first shredder I have been spared having to consider odious comparisons with other types. This Aurora AS610C will do for me. Now then, where did I put that £20 note?

|Does exactly what it says on the box!,
I brought this shredder having previously bought a laminator from the same maker, now its hard to get very excited about a shredder, it arrived, i unpacked it, plugged it in and it worked…
I have shredded loads of junk mail and the resulting waste should be good for kindling for my fire this winter.
The shredder itself has performed very well and does what i expected – it shreds paper, I did have an old shredder a few years back which cut the paper into long strips – this one cuts it into pieces which seems to take up less room so i have to empty it less – which is good.
The shredder also is able to shred credit cards…I haven’t tried this yet and will update here when i do.
Other than that it looks quite nice and doesn’t take up much room, if you want a shredder for your home, I would say this is ideal.
