Product Overview

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Aurora AU1210MA Professional Grade High Security Micro Cut Shredder. I must say that I was really impressed with this product. It is a high security micro cut shredder with a 12 sheet capacity, and it is capable of destroying CDs, DVDs, credit cards and small paper clips. This shredder cuts paper, CDs, DVDs and credit cards into small pieces measuring 5/32 by 15/32 inches, which is about the size of a grain of rice.

The best part about this shredder is its nonstop 60 minute continuous run time. It also features an anti jam auto reverse function that helps to clear any paper jams that may occur while using the machine, as well as an ultra quiet operation. The 5.0 gallon pullout bin has LED indicator lights that alert you to standby/ overheat/ bin full/ overload/ door open status so you know when it s time to empty the bin or replace it with a new one.

In addition to all these features, the Aurora AU1210MA comes with some great safety features including an auto stop system if anything is put in too thickly or if the bin is full. It also has a reverse switch which helps to avoid accidentally shredding your valuable documents or important papers.

The Aurora AU1210MA Professional Grade High Security Micro Cut Shredder would make an ideal choice for anyone who needs to securely shred sensitive documents and other materials on a regular basis. It s perfect for small offices or home use as it can easily handle up to 12 sheets at once and keeps running for up to 60 minutes without needing a break. The fact that it s a high security micro cut shredder means that your documents are shredded into much smaller pieces than standard cross cut shredders making them virtually impossible to piece back together again in order to reconstruct any confidential information contained within them.

Overall I am very pleased with my experience of using the Aurora AU1210MA Professional Grade High Security Micro Cut Shredder and would highly recommend this product for anyone looking for an efficient and secure way of destroying sensitive documents or materials quickly and conveniently without taking up too much space in their office or home workspace.
