Product Description

Great for Your Home Office
Bonsaii DocShred C560-D Paper Shedder's simple features makes it easy to use and perfect for your home office. It can shred all of your sensitive information from old tax records, bills to bank statements. C560-D can shred up to 6 sheets of paper (A4 size 75g/m ²) at a time into 5/32″ x 15/32″ (4x12mm) smaller particles than standard cross cut.

No Hassle and Easy Operation
This machine features convenient small handles for easily lifting the shredding part to empty the wastebasket when it is full watching through the window in the front.
In auto start mode, the shredding begins automatically when the sensor in the middle of the feed slot detects paper inserting. If the shredder is jammed due to shredding exceed paper, manual reverse can help clear it out.

Overheating Protection
Bonsaii shredder is equipped with an overheating protection system. If the unit keeps shredding over its maximum running time and become overheated, it will shut off automatically to protect the motor.

1-Year WarrantyThe warranty of this unit is 12 months from the date of first purchase, provided that the machine has been used appropriately, which ensures the least worries and best experience that we could provide for our dearest customers.

NOTE: A few pieces of shredded paper may be found inside the shredder blades or the waste basket due to the 100% full shredding test in the process of manufacturing to ensure quality. If you are not satisfied, please contact customer service for further assistance.

this shredder is PERFECT. It is truly micro cut

Bonsaii DocShred C560-D 6-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Shredder, Overload and Thermal Protection, 3.9 Gallon Wastebasket Capacity, Lightweight, Decent for Home and Office Use .

I bought this shredder for home office use. Mostly I just wanted something to shred those "pre-approved" credit card notices and financial documents we don't need to keep hard copies of, (bank statements, w-2s, 1099s) basically anything that someone swiping your trash could use to steal your identity with, and I must say for this application, this shredder is PERFECT.

It is truly micro cut, not just cross cut or strip cut, so you get extra high shred security. It is a little louder than I was expecting, but it shreds VERY quickly and it doesn't run for unnecessary time after the document is shredded, so the fact that it is a little louder than some other shredders I have used in the past is more than offset by the fact that the noise is so brief. I have held off buying a shredder for the house because I didn't want to spend $55+ on a paper shredder and my requirements were (a. microcut, b. cheap). This bad boy fits the bill. It is small it gets the job done nicely.

Some people complain about shredders and really these are the people who buy the wrong shredder for their use. If you need to shred a filebox full of paper every day, you'll want to spend more money on a beast of a machine. If you just want to shred the odd bank statement or credit card notice here and there you absolutely cannot go wrong with this little workhorse. It is fast and efficient and an excellent bang for the buck.

I am exceptionally pleased. Will update if it melts or something but I expect I'll have this thing in my office 10 years from now. I have included a picture of it next to a standard two drawer file cabinet for size reference.

Nice Personal Shredder

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2017

Verified Purchase

I've gone through quite a few shredders in my day, they all usually die within a few months, get jammed, overheat, and in general frustrate. This little guy appears to be sturdy and shreds into very small pieces - of course - you must not feed more than six pieces of paper at a time, I only feed three just to be safe. It is a long, tedious process using a personal shredder to get through the mounds of paper one accumulates, but the days of just tossing into the trash without a second thought are long gone, nothing is safe anymore. So here I sit on the floor feeding paper to a machine in hopes that it won't overheat or jam while I put invoices with account numbers, personal info, etc. into this little machine. Fingers crossed it is sturdier than the ones I have had in the past, that ended up in the landfill because historically they die rather quickly. This one appears well made and only time will tell if it will last. I don't think you will be disappointed, as long as you don't expect the performance of an office quality shredder. Is it noisy, of course it is. It is a nice size and while you empty the included basket of pits and pieces of former paperwork it will help keep it cool. The instructions "suggest" to work for 2 minutes and then let the machine cool for 60 minutes, I shredded longer than two minutes, I'd say 30 minutes then it did overheat and stopped mid-three page shredding.

Bargain Pulverizer for All Your Best Secrets

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2019

Verified Purchase

The media could not be loaded.

Up front, I will admit that I did not buy this for security or privacy, but it will certainly serve that purpose. I have pet rabbits (you can select "House Rabbit Society" as your Amazon Smile charity, BTW), and they like shredded paper in their litter boxes. We previously had a very cheap shredder that only made strips, and the results from that machine were sometimes not very useable for litter, and certainly were not securely destroyed. You could piece the sheets back together and read them. When that machine finally gave up the ghost, I wanted a replacement that made much smaller shreds.

This Bonsaii shredder really destroys everything in its path. It makes very small shreds of all types of paper, and even a lot of thinner cardboard, like cereal boxes. Some materials end up almost *powdered*. It is almost *too* thorough, because I don't get as much volume out of the results because it is so completely pulverized.

Pros: Very secure destruction, and very safe; the machine will not run unless it is sitting on top of its bin. Have not seen any jams, and unlike every other shredder I've ever used, it can run at its full stated capacity with regard to the number of sheets input with no problem. I tested it with 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, & 6-sheet stacks, and it does slow down a bit (see video), but doesn't really struggle and never stops unless overheated. The bin has a window to monitor how full it is. The thing is built like a tank; when you turn it over and look at the teeth it's kind of amazing how heavy-duty it looks. It really means business.

Cons: It is quite heavy, due to the "built like a tank" thing, there are very sustantial jaws on this. On top of the rather narrow bin, it seems top-heavy. Unless it is against a wall or furniture, it might be subject to tipping. If the full bin were to ever fall over, you better have a hard floor you can sweep, or a very good vacuum. The shredded results can be quite dusty, because it really does turn things into almost powder for softer materials like newsprint or thin cardboard. When emptying the bin, the paper dust can be a pain, as it sort of sticks everywhere on the plastic bin due to static attraction. You should also shred things as you go, instead of building up a big pile and shredding all at once, since it will overheat rather quickly when used continuously. From a completely cool start, I would estimate about ten minutes of feeding single sheets will fill the bin and cause the red light to blaze due to overheating. It takes probably fifteen minutes to cool, which could then give you about another five minutes of continuous use before stopping again. Give it a good 30 to 40 minutes if you want it to completely cool off.

None of the issues are deal breakers for me, but if you have heavy duty requirements, get something bigger (or get TWO of these?)

Cautious recommendation if you have need for a light use shredder

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2018

Verified Purchase

This is not a difficult review to write or a four star rating to be give BUT context has to be provided....

This shredder was bought as a gift for a family at home who would only have occasional need for shredding a few papers at a time.

^^^^ The above is kinda important and hence the four star rating for this capable, and yet not robust, shredder.

In operation this shredder is about as noisy as others we have used. What is apparent is that it is not design with high or continued use with close to its rated maximum capacity of paper. However its price did reflect that when we bought this and it matched the intended use that it was put to.

The cross cut pieces are well defined and not strung together, in other words it cuts consistently and their pieces are small enough in the bin as advertised.

We did recommend to our daughter that it is occasionally cleaned, after unplugging the unit they flip the top over to clean out the mechanism from clogging up random pieces of paper.

Now and again they have also used "Swordfish shredder oil" to run through a piece of paper smeared with that lubricant. I reckon that the lube is important as paper tends to have a "powder" or something applied to keep the sheets from sticking to each other. This causes the mechanism in the shredder to become quite dry, it used to be an issue also with printers and the rubber drive rollers would become coated and not be able to grip the paper to pull it through.

With the above intended use in mind and the capability of this type of shredder and its price I do recommend it.

However if you expect or need more industrious and durable shredder then I would consider looking elsewhere as you might well be disappointed with this particular model.

It pays to research and do some reading before buying a shredder, more so if you are wanting to use them regularly, also take the quoted maximum paper handling of most paper shredders with a pinch of salt and you'll be fine.

Hope this review helps.

Compact, Effective and inexpensive

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 2, 2019

Verified Purchase

Bought to replace an aged Rexel shredder that finally gave up the ghost, this is an excellent and compact piece of kit.
When it came out of the box it looked rather small and I was concerned that it's capacity might be a little too small.
Not a bit of it. It micro-shreds into much smaller pieces than my old Rexel cross-cut shredder and so it actually has a larger capacity in real use than the Rexel. Smaller pieces, so much more compact and incidentally, more secure,, whereas the Rexel filled the bucket with air and larger pieces.
It's not very quiet, but much less noisy than the Rexel was.
It genuinely will shred 6 sheets at a time, but like all domestic shredders it's not for constant use.
If you run it too long, there is a thermal cut out which stops the cutting until the motor cools down.
Realistically, unless you are shredding an entire office full of stuff, it's more than adequate.
It would probably cut through a staple if you accidentally left one on the paper, but it's not designed for it, so you should be careful.
It won't cut credit cards or CDs either and it won't shred Mail-Lite bags (I ripped some open and pulled off the plastic bubbles before shredding the labels. That works).

I'm very happy with it and having just checked online, it's a Which Best Buy too.

So if you want an inexpensive, compact and effective shredder, for domestic use, I would recommend this one.

So far so good

I've been using this shredder for 3 days now and not a single paper jam! Not meaning to be cynical,but that's not bad as these things go. It is very compact. My only concern is that I'll forget to stop shredding after 6 minutesand begin to have problems with the motor. But I like it fine so far.

Amazon's delivery service is another story...First delivery failed with no notice through the door though they claimed to have been here... 1 day wasted. 2nd day I was virtually sitting on the stairs waiting. Then heard a tell tale sound of a card dropping. Ran down and found a tried to deliver card. I ran outside and 2 guys in the delivery van sain thay had been to my house,but admittedto not having tried the doorbell. Sorry, Amazon, but not good enough.

No problems for low/moderate use

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

I needed a decent shredder to start getting rid of files of paperwork accumulated over the years. I was content with something good enough for home use, that turned my confidential waste into confetti (rather than ribbons) and which was reliable but not too big. Having read many reviews, I settled on the Bonsaii C560-D, having also considered the slightly bigger Bonsaii C156-C model. I thought the price was very fair for both models.

I am pleased to report that the C560-D seems perfectly adequate for my purposes, and does what it says on the tin. Easy to set up - take it out the box, put the teeth onto the tub, plug it in and turn it on. Then start feeding your paper.

It is supposed to only be used continuously for 2 minutes before giving it a break, but I assume that recommendation is for when you are trying to do the maximum of six sheets of paper at a time, as I managed to keep shredding non stop for half an hour whilst just feeding one sheet at a time. It didn't automatically shut down during this prolonged use, there were no jams, and a tub full of confetti at the end of it :o) So I think if you are patient and careful, this should work fine for low/moderate use. One file done, about 12 more to do.....
