Bonsaii 120-Sheet Autofeed Micro-Cut 30-Min Run Heavy Duty Paper Shredder

We've had a good name brand shredder for at least 6 years. It has served it purpose and lately started making noises and not shredding well. Even when lubed with the shredder lubrication sheets it begins making noise (knocking or soft banging type noise), so I knew it was near it's end. So the hunt was on for a new replacement. After several hours of searches and review reading I decided the Bonsaii 110 was the way to go. It arrived a day sooner than expected, so this was a pleasant start. After a brief read of the instruction leaflet I put it to work. The first item of note was the lack of noise, this machine is pretty darn quiet for a shredder. It chomps away making little bits out of paper and envelopes with little effort. Manually fed it take stacks of 10 sheets with no issue, it states up to 12 sheets but I didn't gage the paper thickness so I didn't want to push it. staples pages and credit cards go right through with no fuss. The only flaw was the auto feed system, it works but the pages have to be totally flat to feed through individually as it is intended for. If there are folds in the stacked pages multiple pages feed at the same time. While that didn't cause an issue for me, I saw some reviews complaining of a paper jamb with the auto feed. I can only imagine that this was their problem as no matter what I ran through it it ate it up. I ran the machine for about 3 hours with only brief breaks in between for paper sorting and stacking for the next batch of shredding. During this time I filled the bin about 3 times. So in conclusion I can honestly say that my decision to choose this shredder was a good one. Quiet, and thorough in doing it's job is all you can ask for in a shredder at this price point. Great machine for the money!

So happy that for my first ever personal shredder I selected the Bonsaii 4S16! I used to dump my papers into my workplace secure shredder bin, but now that I'm retired from that job, I decided it was time to get my own. After reading so many amazon reviews complaining about other shredders, I was about to give up when I came upon this one. Note that I've never used a shredder until now, so I have nothing to compare the Bonsaii to, but I'm very happy with its performance (it's actually kind of fun to use it! and it makes cool sounds as it sucks in papers, staples, credit cards, whatever and grinds them to tiny pieces). I recently moved and had a bunch of old bank statements, invoices, and so on to deal with. In about 20 minutes I produced three bins *packed* full of shreds, including old credit cards, with nary a whimper from the machine. A couple of times I tried to run stacks of papers that were two thick (maybe 10 pages) and it stopped, reversed itself so I could easily pull out the unshredded papers, and then happily ate those (when fed fewer pages at a time). The only (minor) complaint is that emptying the bin that collects the shreds is messy. Even if I were to line it with a trash bag, a lot of clumps of stray shreds wouldn't make it inside. So it requires sweeping/vacuuming the shredder interior and the floor around it when I'm finished with a shredding job. But I may figure out a way to remedy this. One option could be to empty the bin before it gets overly full. This might avoid shreds getting packed up into the shredding mechanism and then falling out after I remove the bin (I just swept them out with a small whisk broom--don't put your fingers in there!). The Bonsaii is lightweight, easy to move around, and works hard. No assembly required: the wheels are already on it. Just plug it in, turn it on, and it's ready to go. And the bin is very easy to remove and re-install: just gently push it in and it clicks into place. Instructions say to turn off the machine and unplug it before removing the bin, which I did--makes sense. Have only had the Bonsaii less than a week, but so far it gets my 5-star rating.

Right out of the box this thing shredded a stack of papers that I had been saving for it. It's much quiet than my old shedder that struggles with 2 pages at a time and was very loud. It fits right in the same area in my home office where I had my old one and with wheels on it, I can roll it in and out with ease. It went thru about 40 pieces of paper in just a couple of minutes, so it's very quick. Highly recommend!

This is one of the best shredders I’ve had/used. The confetti cutting action helps to ensure that the documents are secure. It’s also quieter than most other units, though a bit higher pitch. So far, after about six bin fulls no jams in the document feeder, nor the cutters. The one flaw seems to be the overfill protection. When the bin get full the power light starts flashing, but the unit doesn’t stop. One time I intentionally continued to feed some paper into the unit (just a few sheets), to see what would happen: it continued to work, but when I removed the bin it had overflowed down the back (interior) of the unit. Minor mess to clean up. Lesson: When the power button starts to flash, stop shredding and empty the bin.

I faced a daunting task of shredding documents since the last 30 years since we are contemplating moving/selling our house. My little 8 sheet at a time shredder died. This product has been a life saver. It works extremely well. The auto feeder is excellent. One note - I initially had jams that I realized were user error. To avoid jams in the auto feeder always try and ensure you put the papers in all the way. There is a lever of some kind in the feeder that you have to push through and if you don't the papers will rest higher and this causes Jams. Also I found that in general using paper that is similar in weight and thickness helps avoid jams, as well as paper that is stuck to each other ( even loosely ) which can cause the feeder to try and push many papers through. After I realized this, I've almost never had a paper jam. I got through what I thought would be weeks of shredding in a few days.

Reviewed on 2026-Jul-08. Been using this for several months now to give a chance at problems or failure, but so far, it's working just as advertised! I'm very happy with it. I have two other shredders so these devices are not new to me and I believe this to be a quality model. I would definitely buy another one if needed. (thought to myself, maybe I should be another just to have one on standby. Seems as time goes, equipment gets cheaper so who knows about the future model, but THIS model is excellent!)

I needed a shredding solution for 24 bankers’ boxes full of paper. I could not afford to have it commercially shredded so I compared many shredders that could handle a large volume of paper without the big price. I chose the Bonsaii Office Shredder because it did cross shredding and could handle the volume. I ended up with 92 bags of shredded paper with the only issue being it would overheat after about 3 hours of continuous shredding and turn off automatically. Considering it was not a commercial machine I did not mind giving it a break a couple of times a day to cool off. I am pleased with the performance of this machine.

It’s a good shredder for the price. Does a great job of shredding multiple pages. The feeder requires a learning curve, but overall just as described.

Es una maravilla, me sorprendió bastante lo rápida que es, la amoooooo, aparte de que todos son comentarios son ciertos, es la mejor trituradora qué pude comprar

Auf der Suche nach einem neuen Aktenvernichter (vorher hatte ich einen HSM) wollte ich mir einen günstigeren holen. Ich hatte mich für den „Genie 580 XCD (10 Blatt, 4 x 18 mm Partikel, Sicherheitsstufe P4)“ entschieden, auch wegen der vielen Bewertungen hier auf Amazon. Das Gerät schaffte aber nicht mal annähernd die 10 Blatt und bereits nach 1-2 Minuten wurde das Gerät sehr langsam, zu warm und ging in die Abschaltphase. Dann habe ich geschaut, gelesen und noch mehr gelesen. Schließlich bin ich auf die Firma Bonsaii gestoßen und deren Aktenvernichter. Die Wahl lag dann zwischen dem 3S16 oder dem 4S16. Da es nur ca. 28 Euro (230,- Euro) Unterschied war, habe ich mich für den Bonsaii 4S16 entschieden. Und was soll ich bisher sagen, ich bin begeistert. Das Gerät schafft zwar auch keine 10 Blatt, aber 4-5 sind kein Problem. Auch hat es eine viel kleinere Schnittgröße und eine Sicherheitsstufe P5. Ich habe die letzten Tage zahlreiche Stunden davor und nebenbei Amazon Prime..., äh oder war es doch Netflix ;-) geschaut und massig Papier geschreddert. Der Aktenvernichter zerkleinert sehr gut und ordentlich. Meist habe ich dann so 3-4 Blätter eingesteckt oder auch nach und nach und ohne Abstand ein Blatt nach dem anderen. Das Gerät hat alles wunderbar gemeistert und das auch über 1 Stunde Betriebszeit. Abgeschaltet hat es sich nie, was sicherlich auch der besseren Kühltechnik mit Lüfter auf der Rückseite zu verdanken ist. Natürlich habe ich alle paar hundert (oder ein paar mehr ;-) ein Öl-Blatt von Bonsaii mit eingeschoben. Dieses wird sehr empfohlen für die Pflege des Schneidewerks. Inzwischen bin ich mit meinem großen Alt-Papier durch und habe über die Hälfte eines 1100 Liter Altpapiercontainer gefüllt. Ich kann das Gerät bisher nur empfehlen und hoffe, dass es noch viele weitere Jahre seine Dienste verrichten wird.

Its quieter than i thought it would be , shreds small pieces like it said , confetti , moves easy on wheels , easy to empty draw, like it so far . Value for money well not to complain but tad expensive. I would think not office standard. But because shreds are smaller no need to empty so often . Not to big either Ideal for home use .

I am loving this paper shredder. it is much quieter than all the previous residential paper shredders I've used. The shredded paper is very fine. Having up to 60 continuous minutes of shredding is why I made the purchase. I see it's role in a home office or small business. There are 2 things I don't like about this: - The touch buttons for power, forward and reverse are in an awkward position. I've been repeatedly triggering these. - My other grip is that the wheels do not swivel; It only goes left - right. This is something I will need to address. I had wrongly assumed the wheels would swivel. I will need to change the front 2 to a swivel style.

Perfect size for a small office space. Shreds well and easy to empty and keep clean.
