Best CD Shredders of 2025

"I've had my Amazon Basics shredder since January 2022, and it's been fantastic for nearly three years. No issues at all! I've owned multiple shredders before, but this one truly shines with its features."

"I bought a compact 8-sheet shredder for home use, and it's been quiet and efficient. Although we only use one sheet at a time, I'm very pleased with its performance."

"This shredder works great! It runs for long periods without interruption, and I appreciate how easy it is to empty. A solid design overall!"

"I've been using this shredder for a couple of weeks, and it's exceeded my expectations. The practical design fits perfectly over my wastebasket, saving space. It shreds up to 8 sheets at once, even with small staples, and handles CDs and credit cards easily, cutting them into three pieces for added security."

"I recently bought this shredder to fit atop my 13-gallon trash container, and I’m really pleased with how well it works. It shreds paper efficiently and is a great price for the quality. It fits perfectly on my bin, which is about 16 inches."

"This shredder is super basic, but it performs well. I appreciate that I can place it over my garbage bin, and it's quieter than my previous shredder. I just wish it were a bit smaller to fit my office bin better, but overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase."

"I love this shredder! It works great and I haven't had any trouble with jamming. Overall, it seems to be good quality and I really like it."

"This is my second shredder from the same brand. I learned my lesson with the first one after a severe clog, so now I only use two sheets at a time. This shredder handled it without any problems and stayed green while in use. It's a bit noisy, but that's manageable. I can definitely say that any previous issues were my fault!"

"For my home office needs, this shredder is just fine. It's a bit on the small side, so I have to empty it often. It does shred most documents well, but I did have some trouble with credit cards and radiology CDs. Overall, it serves its purpose and I'm glad I can finally dispose of old papers!"

"So far, this is the BEST shredder I have ever owned! The power is incredible, and it packs a punch for its size! The value is absolutely worth it, and it’s portable enough to just roll around. I have not encountered any jams, and the auto shut-off feature alerts me when the bucket is full. It’s also super quiet!"

"I've put this shredder through its paces since receiving it. I’ve probably shredded about 7-8 thousand pages of various weights, and it’s still going strong after roughly 4 months of almost daily use. It cuts through staples, debit/credit cards, and even CDs with ease. I’m 110% satisfied with this product!"

"I really appreciate that this shredder can handle 12 sheets, CDs, and credit cards without a hitch. It works perfectly and is QUIET! The shreds are small and don’t take up much space, meaning I empty the large bucket infrequently. It was surprisingly heavy but arrived in perfect condition!"

"This shredder is a beast! I’ve accidentally fed it too many papers at awkward angles, yet it just pulls them through without jamming. The hopper size is generous, so I don't empty it often. It shreds thoroughly and is quite durable. Sure, it's a bit loud, but that’s expected."

"I'm thrilled with this shredder, which handles about 10 to 12 sheets at once without any issues. It turns paper into tiny confetti pieces, making it hard for anyone to reconstruct information. After an hour of continuous shredding, it didn’t overheat at all, unlike my previous ones."

"I was amazed that this shredder can handle cardboard effortlessly. I have tons of boxes to shred, and it works great with them. It’s even quieter than my last one, and I love how easy it is to use. It’s been a fantastic value for money!"

"I've been using this shredder for over 6 months, and it’s still going strong! I purchased shredder oil sheets for the first time because of its durability. I’ve owned several shredders before, mostly around $40, but this one is by far the best! It handles 12 sheets effortlessly and has never jammed. I’ve shredded over 10,000 sheets and it hasn't malfunctioned once. The best part? It can run for an hour without overheating!"

"I needed a shredder for my home office, and after using this one for 4 months, I absolutely love it! I can shred 3-4 pages at a time, even stapled, and it never complains. I often have to empty the bin every other week because I go through so many documents. I was skeptical before purchasing due to mixed reviews, but it has exceeded my expectations!"

"I just received this shredder and have no complaints. It's super easy to use and shreds into small pieces, ensuring privacy. I shredded a large stack without it overheating, and I managed around 8 pages at once. Plus, it's not too loud! I would definitely recommend this product."

“I chose this shredder because I have cards to shred, and cutting them manually is hard on my hands. It's very convenient to store and can easily sit on top of a trash basket or between chairs. It’s incredibly strong, and I can tell it’s durable as it shreds credit cards and IDs without jamming.”

“I absolutely love this mini shredder! After burning out the motor on my old one, this fits perfectly over a regular trash can and can shred up to 7 pieces of paper at a time. It even has a slot for DVDs and credit cards! The quality is impressive, and it works wonderfully!”

“I bought this to replace a 15-year-old shredder. It has been doing an excellent job while I clean out my mom’s house. It’s holding up really well and is efficient for all my shredding needs.”

"I use it daily and it works well. It shreds credit cards, CDs, paper, etc. Great value for money and stores easily anywhere."

"I needed an inexpensive, dependable shredder for home use, and this one is perfect. It works very well, and I'm pleased with my purchase."

"I never thought I'd be this excited about a paper shredder, but here we are. This little beast turns sensitive documents into confetti dreams. It shreds faster than my willpower at a bake sale. The noise? It hums along, quiet enough to not annoy the neighbors. If you're on the fence, get off. This shredder isn't just a product; it's a lifestyle upgrade. Highly recommend!"

"When my last shredder died, I needed a new one. This unit was reasonably priced and arrived within a day. It was easy to set up and went right to work. I appreciate that it shreds credit cards with ease. One suggestion: the solid black waste bin makes it hard to see when I need to empty it."

"This is a great shredder! Very easy to use, has a handle for easy movement, and holds quite a bit of shredded material. I was pleasantly surprised by its power. This is my first shredder, and I honestly have no idea why I waited so long to get one!"

"I absolutely love this little shredder! It's compact so it can fit anywhere in my home. While they call it a desktop shredder, I have it on the floor and move it to the kitchen counter when needed. It shreds great and turns paper into tiny pieces, almost like confetti!"

"After trying a different model, I went with this Aurora shredder and I'm so glad I did! It feels much sturdier compared to the Mailmate I initially purchased. Plus, it's quieter than my previous shredder, and the pull-out bin makes emptying it a breeze!"

"This shredder is simply perfect! It's sleek, quiet, and efficient. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a compact solution for their shredding needs!"
