Portable Office Mini A4 Manual Paper Hand Shredder Straight Cut Home Paper Width 9" (Blue)

I just love it! It cuts perfect 3mm stripes. Great for quilling. Just follow the instructions: don't put more than one page at the same time.

HORRIBLE!!!! I bought this to use for paper quilling strips, in fact, when I searched for paper quilling tools this popped up so I was intrigued. I saw the mixed reviews but ordered anyways and hoped for the best. Big mistake. This does not produce clean cuts. The edges almost look like ripped construction paper if that makes sense. The blades must not be sharp enough I'm guessing. Also, the handle is VERY cheaply made and flimsy. It has already cracked so once it breaks completely the unit will be absolutely unusable unless you use something to clamp onto the little turning knob. I'm sadly disappointed as I really needed a shredder like this that actually works. I have a larger pile of paper that is now waste than I do usable strips. Not very economical for someone who runs their own business.

It works ok, but the handle for turning keeps coming off and there's no way to hold on to it while turning the handle. It doesn't stay put.

It's not a perfect clean cut but it's pretty good, slightly rough but I don't think it will really show in finished quilled art. It's not so much a rough cut, it's more like a bunch of little indentations along each sides, but I think it was getting a little less noticeable every page I shredded. Also beware if you use this to make quilling strips, don't use special paper for the very first page you shred b/c it left some grease or oil on like half the paper, but the rest were fine. I've only shredded a few pages so far but I'm really glad I took a chance and bought this, it will really help save on quilling strips and help me get other colors that I can't find pre cut. I used a pretty thick 76lb construction paper and it was a little hard to turn, but if you hold the entire handle instead of just the end part it's easier to turn and more likely not to break the handle. If things change I will update my review but so far I love it! I was hoping for a cleaner cut, but hoping it will continue to get better. Plus I bought the square trade protection for just $2.68 for two years, thought it was worth it! :)

Perfect! Clean cut. No regrets.

Shredder it self is good, but that plastic handle they gave with it. Broke in 3 like 5th time i used it....and can even use it without that handle.

Love it

I bought this to shred paper for quilling--a new hobby for me and my niece. The paper cuts about 3mm. I can cut card stock and the common thin paper, one sheet at a time. It fits a full 8.5” width of paper. It’s a clean cut on the heavier card stock, but if you want “perfect”, none of those tiny rolls on the edge, no. I personally don’t mind. II bought card stock in various colors at Michaels when the packs went on sale 50 sheets for $2.50--you’re getting a lot of strips for that price in a lot of colors.
