Muji Handy Shredder, Off-White, Small

It's ABSOLUTELY PERFECT for what I needed. If you are looking to quickly and effortlessly shred 10 credit cards and 100 sheets peppered with staples - why are you even reading this 😂 Go get an electric shredder and don't ruin the ratings for this one trying to save a couple bucks 🫩 It's QUIET and small, fits in every drawer. Lightweight and very easy to operate. Aesthetically pleasing. Love it.

I am a devoted customer of Muji. Almost by policy, if I need a something, I don't have it, and Muji makes it, that's the one I'm going to get. Well, I do receive a few documents which I'd just as soon no one else see, but I've hesitated on this purchase since I first saw it in the Shibuya Muji branch: it's small. I don't like the idea of having an electrical device which makes unpleasant noises, just to dispose of a few pieces of paper a month. But would it work? It does! It's quite satisfying in action, at that. But realize: the instructions say two sheets, what they mean is, one sheet folded in half. Or an envelope. But definitely not an envelope with a sheet of paper triple-folded inside it. Wrong bias to cut on anyway. That said, it's silent, it has the calm aesthetic which Muji is known for, it makes short work of a piece of paper, and then it goes in a drawer. No cords, no buzzsaw, just nice even shreds of paper dropping into the identically-colored wastebasket which, yes, is also Muji. One star off: the sticker leaves behind an unpleasant residue which has to be scraped off. One of the things I value about the company is that, somehow, they seem to have mastered the art of stickers which come cleanly off that onto which they are stuck. One of many small things about Muji: things which any company could do, but Muji cares and they don't. Well, this one didn't peel off clean. So it goes. A bit of scrubbing takes care of it, and it takes its place next to the Muji stapler and Muji left-handed scissors, in an acrylic Muji office organizing drawer set. I really am fond of this company's wares, to a perhaps unreasonable degree.

... but that's to be expected for such an affordable, portable shredder. You either have to fold your sheets perfectly in half, or tear them in 3rds, long way (hot dog-style), and then it can shred any standard paper, one sheet at a time (max 2 but paper may cram along one edge so I find it best to not press it). It's more tedious to do a crosscut, but it's possible if you pre-tear the sheets accordingly, and then stop shredding just short of one side so you can rotate and shred along the remaining spine. This made for an excellent gift for one of my friends.

Absolutely perfect for my needs. I simply needed a shredder for things like receipts and daily mail (e.g., credit offers, statements, etc.). I didn’t want something bulky that I had to drag out and plug in every time I wanted to shred something. I also didn’t want anything with batteries. This is perfect! Doesn’t take up any more space than a pair of scissors, and gets the job done quickly and efficiently. Seems well made and sturdy. Hoping it lasts for many years.

Overall, not super impressed. First, it took 4 days longer to get here than the latest date from the original delivery range, and ended up taking 14 days to arrive. Not a huge deal, because after all, it's a hand held shredder. It feels relatively sturdy but it is kind of a pain to use because it truly can't handle a piece of paper that is trifolded (trifeld?) - only one that is folded in half. It will just stop, and the handle might even come off. Since almost all mail is folded thrice to fit in an envelope, that means you have to take mail out of the envelope, separate the pages, open the pages all the way, refold them "hotdog" style so there are only 2 layers, and THEN you can put it in the shredder. The slit is not long enough to shred a page folded once "hamburger" style. This is the ultimate first world problem, but it certainly takes longer to shred a piece of mail than I was expecting, especially one with more than 1 page. But I do love that it fits in a drawer and does not require batteries or any electricity. I'm keeping it, but only for things that absolutely need to be shredded, like checks. I was able to easily shred three checks in one go.

Very handy and good for minimal shredding. Also looks good enough to be placed on the office desk. It’s just a little pricey for the size but I hope it will hold up for a long time.

Works great on single page and smaller page papers. Not ideal for full size letter paper. Or thick paper.

We love this handy Muji shredder! My kids especially enjoy shredding paper for fun, and it’s perfect for craft projects. It’s also great for shredding mail and important notes. Plus, it doesn’t take up much space and has a simple, minimalistic design. Highly recommended!

Handig ding, vooral als af en toe iets te versnipperen hebt.

Un petit accessoire qui ne prend pas de place mais qui fait le job, mais feuille à feuille. On peut plier une feuille A4 en deux dans la longueur pour la passer facilement mais pas plus. Attention à ce que la feuille soit bien droite, sinon elle peut se tordre et bloquer le mécanisme. Si on a bcp de feuilles à déchiqueter, ça peut prendre du temps et être fatiguant vu que c'est manuel, mais sinon c'est un petit objet bien pratique.

This little machine shreds one A4 sheet at a time, provided its folded into two the right way. If, like me, you get most important communications by email, you probably will have very little to shred, and this solves the problem for a very little price. Its certainly easier to use than the manual ones! You just have to make sure you shred over a wastepaper basket. The only thing I can think of that some people might object to is the fact it only does one sheet of paper at a time. This is well set out in the description, so there should be no expectation that its going to perform like an electric shredder, let alone a manual one where you turn a handle and it comes with its own bin to catch the shredded paper. This does what its supposed to to, so don't get your hair, tie or scarf caught in it!

This shredder works great, but I would only recommend it if you have small quantities of paper to shred. It is quite small and fits well in my drawers. It can only shred two paper layers at a time and the feeding area is quite small, so it fits only 1 A4 paper folded in half at once. If you need something small that will get the job done, I would definitely recommend it!

Fits a bifolded piece of paper at a time, so not much. However, it’s super small, needs no power and shreds really well.
