The Insignia NS-S6CCBK2-C is a compact cross-cut shredder designed for home or small office use. It can shred up to 6 sheets of paper in a single pass, and it's also capable of destroying credit cards, small staples, and paper clips. The cross-cut blades produce small confetti-like pieces, which helps safeguard sensitive information. The shredder features a safety interlock switch that stops operation when the wastebasket is removed. For jams, it has a forward/reverse function to clear paper easily. Its compact footprint makes it suitable to sit on a desk, and it includes a handle to lift off the shredder head when you need to empty the bin.
