Summary: Crosscut is the way to go.
 
This is my 2nd shredder and 1st crosscut. The crosscut is a far better design because it shreds more finely and the waste paper is much mre compact, taking less space in the trash. The Aurora seems powerful enough, handles credit cards and multiple sheets; no jams to date.

Summary: Great little shredder
 
Fits under desk. Noisy, but what crosscut shredder isn't. Small waste basket has to be emptied more often than other larger ones, but so what. I have owned 5 shredders in the last five years and have come to terms with the fact that the lifespan on these products suck. At the $40 price level it can't be beat. I can buy 4 of these before approaching the price of a fancy one that will just crap-out on me in a year anyway.

Tips for longevity:
* Pay attention to the thickness of what you're shredding. Shredders may be rated at 8 sheets but thick sheets of paper decrease the amount you can shred at one time. So take it slow and listen to the effort exerted by your machine to know if you need to modify your shredding technique.
* Shred as often as possible to avoid mass shredding and jamming or overheating your machine. Resist shredding that unopened envelope with several folded sheets. When they're stacked that way it's like 16 sheets. After the first big jam the performance is all down hill from there.

Summary: Average Shredder
 
This shredder is just average. 8 sheets of any standard 20 lb. paper bogs the motor almost to a stop.

Summary: Nice and small
 
This shredder is one of the best purchases that I have made on Amazon so far. This is a nice, small and compact shredder and I have not had any problems. I like the fact that when you take the shredder part off of the "basket" (for lack of a better word) it stops working until you put it back on. I don't know if all shredders are like that but I have curious little kids so the fact tht the shreddder only works when it is all togeter is important to me. I would reccommend this to anyone!

Summary: Works satisfactorily, but noisy
 
This was the least expensive shredder that accepted 8 inch paper. The unit works alright, but is quite noisy and has a low capacity. I have been putting only one sheet in at a time. While satisfied in relation to the price, this is definitely a low end product made for minimal shredding demands.
