As a third-grade teacher, I often have small amounts of confidential student information – old permission slips, graded drafts of essays, or practice math sheets with names – that need to be disposed of securely, but I don't always have time to walk down the hall to the main office shredder. This Aurora AS420C is a desktop-style cross-cut shredder, meaning it cuts paper into small confetti-like pieces, which is much more secure than strip-cut.It truly fits right on my desk without taking up much valuable space, which is a huge plus in a busy classroom. It handles 4 sheets at a time, which is ample for my needs since I'm usually only shredding a few pages here and there. It's been a reliable little workhorse for daily use – not heavy-duty for stacks of paper, but excellent for those small, quick jobs. It feels well-made and sturdy enough to handle the regular, light use it gets from me. It's truly been a great addition to my classroom setup, helping me maintain student privacy efficiently. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for small space and quality shred *by on Reviewed in the United States August 3, 2026* I love how small and powerful this shredder is. Yes I have to feed things like a 8.5x11 inch page into thirds, a trade-off for the small amount of space it takes up. Doesn’t fit a lot in basket which is fine cause I don’t want paper sitting around. Fits my goal of being able to shred confidential material securely and take minimal space in my small apartment. Looks cute too! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Little Shredder That Could *by on Reviewed in the United States November 18, 2014* Update 07/2022: this shredder is now 13 years old (purchased in 2009) and recently the auto feed switch stopped working. I took the cover off (note: there’s one screw under a QC sticker) and saw that the switch is just a flexible metal flat spring that gets pushed together when paper is pushed through. I squeezed the two “prongs” of the switch together slightly, reassembled, and we’re back in business! It’s definitely still only good for very light duty shredding, but I’m adding the star I previously withheld as a reward for longevity.Original 2014 review:I've had this shredder for over 5 years, and it has been just what I've needed. I only use it for light-duty shredding: basically just junk mail that has personal information on it and other sensitive documents, plus the occasional expired credit card. It's been great.I'll echo other reviewers' comments that you can't (or at least shouldn't) put more than two thicknesses of paper into the slot at once, and, because the slot is only 4.5" wide, most paper has to be folded. The best way, especially with those long credit card applications we all get for the sole purpose of making sure our shredders still work, is to fold the page down the vertical axis (e.g. an 8.5 x 11" sheet becomes 4.25 x 11" folded over). The basket fills up fairly quickly if you have a stack of papers to shred, but I don't really mind this, as I probably only do my shredding once or twice a month. It has "auto" (shredding gears are activated when you put paper in the slot) and "reverse" modes, and I find it works well to switch to reverse to clear out any rogue bits of paper periodically.Pros:- Small footprint- Reliable (it's lasted me 5 years and still going strong)- Not too expensive- Bin is easy to empty- "Auto" modeCons:- Most paper has to be folded to fit the slot- Limit of 2 thicknesses of paper (1 sheet, folded)- Bin fills quicklyAll-in-all, a fine little shredder. It's not fast, but it will get the job done. Four stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aurora AS420C Desktop-Style Cross-Cut Paper Shredder, 4-Sheet Crosscut Desktop - Fellowes Powershred Performance Shredder Oil, 12 oz.
