Easy to use
Bought this a couple of weeks ago to replace an old model. So far so good, works well, easy to use and a fair price. The Argos site was easy to use, collection was no problem and would recommend.

Good value for money - fine chopping
We have owned various shredders over many years. This one appears robust, it will cut your document into little pieces and quite secure. It appears to struggle with more than 4 sheets of paper and as I know from past experience it's best to feed a shredder with small regular amounts rather than try and put in too many sheets and have the shredder burn out. With the small pieces the hopper is good for 50 sheets of paper I guess. It is quite quick, but if you want speed and fine cutting you will need to invest over £200 to get a commercial grade one. So value for money it's very good.

Brilliant machine
I had quite a pile of paperwork to be shredded when I got round to buying my new PRO action 8 sheet micro cut shredder. I needn't have worried as this new machine dealt with them in a matter of a few minutes. It worked quickly and quietly, shredding them so small it would have been impossible to even try and put them together again. Needless to say I am absolutely thrilled with my new appliance and would definitely recommend it.

Not disgusted about this one!
Very happy with this

Good value
It works well enough and was great value for money. Only issue it that ut can only do 10mins before it needs a rest. A problem if you've got loads of shredding, but not a problem for small amounts of everyday use.

Good value.
Doing a good job...recommend using shredding oil before and after each use as this seems to starve off overheating auto shutoff mode.

Shredder replacement
Replacing an old shredder. The micro cut is a lot finer than the old crosscut shredder I used Easy to use worked well would definitely recommend.

Great
It’s very good . Very useful.
Great shredder
Absolutely Useless
No exaggeration I took it out the box, shreeded 2 pages first time then put another 2 in and it made a crunching sound and packed up. When trying to put pages in it makes a loud motor noise but the things don't spin anymore. Utterly useless after trying to shred 4 pages not even at once.

Hello,
Our supplier has advised that the ProAction 8 Sheet 15 Litre Micro Cut Shredder cable is 1.5m.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Ash007.
After contacting our suppliers they have advised for ProAction 8 Sheet 15 Litre Micro Cut Shredder:
The blades are not accessible to users. For safety reasons, customers should not disassemble the product. It is dangerous.
The "REV" mode allows the cutting blades to run in reverse direction in case of a paper jam. This mode may help clear any blockages without the need to access the blades directly.
Thank you for using Q&A.
If you need to use a screwdriver, don't. You will invalidate your warranty.

Hi Cat,
Yes, the ProAction 8 Sheet 15 Litre Micro Cut Shredder will shred 350gsm card.
Thank you for using Q&A
Considering that the maximum number of 'standard' (80gsm) sheets is 8 (so 640gsm total), 350gsm should be no problem at all.
I think it will cope, one sheet at a time, no more.
Hi Brady2,
After Investigating I can confirm that this ProAction 8 Sheet 15 Litre Micro Cut Shredder can shred any paper product as long as it is no thickier than 8 standard sheets (80gsm x 8).
Thank you for using Q&A.
Sure, providing you remember that it does not exceed the equivalent of 8 sheets of paper and give time to cool rather than using for prolonged periods.
Hi Gurl
I can confirm that the motor is in the lid and the lid can be easily removed.
I hope this helps :)
Thanks for using Argos Q&A
Yes the motor is in the lid and easily removed but as you would expect quite heavy, you do need two hands. Extremely robust machine.
Hi Jay,
The weight of the shredder is 4.7 kg.
Thank you for using Q&A.
