In the past 3 weeks, I have shredded about 18 bags worth. This shredder is a work horse. Do not hesitate to purchase. Review: Gets the job done great! - Overall extremely satisfied with this shredder. It says 8-sheet but I found its most efficient putting 3-4 sheets in at a time because for 5+ sheets it shreds slowly. Since the blades continuously rotate once you've put in paper, you can keep inserting 3-4 sheet packets back-to-back. It takes a LONG while before the shredder overheats so you can get a lot of bulk shredding done in one sitting (I had years of papers to shred, so this feature was a real time-saver). It really does take around 30-40 minutes before its cooled down and you can continue shredding. When it does overheat, whatever paper was going through will just stop where it is in the feeder until the machine cools and it will allow you to continue shredding. Because of the safety features you have to use the bucket they provide and it fills decently slowly, so you're not constantly emptying the bucket. You cant let the bucket fill too much unless the blades just keep rotating already cut pieces of paper around in circles. The little window on the front of the bucket really helps and makes that process easier. The shredder is quite loud. If you want to talk to someone while shredding you'll have to speak louder than normal conversational tones. And the shredder can be heard from a couple rooms away. The head of the shredder is quite heavy so be prepared for the weight when you lift it to empty the bucket. The blades are exposed on the bottom once you've lifted it off so you have to be careful not to touch them on accident. This shredder is amazing for the price and really gets the job done well and I havent had a single issue with yet. Would definitely buy it again! ## Features - High-security micro-cut with 8 sheet capacity; destroys credit cards - Shreds paper and credit cards into tiny pieces (5/32 by 15/32 inches), security level P-4 - 5 minute continuous run time; auto start and manual Reverse to clear paper jams - 3.9 gallon wastebasket; thermal protection with auto shut-off and overheat LED indicator - Backed by an Aurora 1-year limited warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01MYF6M0J | | Antenna Location | office | | Best Sellers Rank | #31,703 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #55 in Shredders | | Brand | Aurora | | Built-In Media | Paper Shredder | | Capacity | 3.9 gallons | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 12,989 Reviews | | Cut Type | Micro Cut | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00038572168705 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 7.13"D x 11.81"W x 17.44"H | | Item Type Name | High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper, Credit Card Shredder | | Item Weight | 11.7 pounds | | Manufacturer | Aurora | | Mfr Part Number | AU870MA | | Model Number | AU870MA | | Operation Mode | Automatic | | Other Special Features of the Product | High security micro-cut shredder | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Recommended Uses For Product | office | | Special Feature | High security micro-cut shredder | | Standard Sheet Capacity | 8 | | UPC | 038572168705 | | Warranty Description | 1-Year Limited Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Aurora - **Capacity:** 3.9 Gallons - **Color:** Black - **Cut Type:** Micro Cut - **Recommended Uses For Product:** office ## Images ![Aurora AU870MA High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Credit Card Shredder Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-Sz6WbH6L.jpg) ![Aurora AU870MA High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Credit Card Shredder Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71i0eu7YouL.jpg) ![Aurora AU870MA High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Credit Card Shredder Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61H6dhibsjL.jpg) ![Aurora AU870MA High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Credit Card Shredder Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81RmRCvgBpL.jpg) ![Aurora AU870MA High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Credit Card Shredder Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617p1qruPHL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Work horse!! *by S***. on July 13, 2026* 10 stars plus!

Faced with deleting 6 years of personal financial records I needed something that could do as good a job for more than 3 pages at a time without frequently overheating or jamming. The basic shredding machine part works well. The top handle which is easy to miss if you don't read the manual is strong enough to support the heavy machine, and comfortable enough to lift it one handed. If you don't overfill it, and you run the machine in reverse for 15 seconds, it lifts off with no residue on its underside. It has an automatic paper sense and a container safety switch that prevents it from working if not tightly fitted to its catch bin. It will shred approximately 200 letter size pages between emptying, and has no difficulty with standard office staple or credit cards with chips. It can shred 8 sheets of fresh 20# copy paper, although its motor ran louder as I increased the number from 3 to 8. I found that it has a harder time with older records. I had to limit those to 5-6 sheets at a time. I was able to shred batches of 100 sheets with natural breaks of 2-3 seconds without it overheating in an 85F non-airconditioned room. This shredder does that, but it has what I consider a very annoying flaw. With little or no encouragement, it falls over where my previous shredder didn't. WHEN it falls over, home vacuum cleaner has a hard time collecting the micro-shreds and paper dust it creates. I tried bracing the back against the wall, which helped until the torque of the motor made the narrow base creep toward the wall and it tipped over -twice. The second time the machine detached from the base and spilled shreds and dust across the floor. When I tried vacuuming it some of the paper dust was lifted into the air by the brushes and scattered wider by the exhaust. I like the shredder enough that I'm going to fasten it against a wall or table leg with a tether strap like B008RIUTX0 or B09MZDK9Y2. I suggest that if you get the same design unit that you do the same. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aurora AU870MA High-Security 8-Sheet Micro-Cut Paper Credit Card Shredder Black - Fellowes Powershred Performance Shredder Oil, 12 oz.
