Aurora C1210 12 Sheet Professional Crosscut Paper Shredder Black




The Aurora C1210 12-Sheet Professional Crosscut Paper Shredder is easy to use, simple to store, and powerful enough for tough jobs, such as shredding CDs or credit cards. This shredder utilizes a medium-duty crosscut cutting type to ensure that your private data is completely destroyed. And with a 12-sheet shred capacity that shreds at a speed of 7.2-feet per minute, your private information will be destroyed quickly and efficiently.

The Aurora C1210 paper shredder offers:
  • 12-sheet shredding power (20-pound paper) at a rate of 7.2-feet per minute.
  • Ability to shred staples, paper clips, and individual credit cards and CDs.
  • Handy, collapsible, pull-out mesh wastebasket.
  • LED indicators for Power, Overload, and Basket Full.

The powerful Aurora C1210 shredder comes equipped with a collapsible mesh wastebasket. View larger. View set up.

Collapsible Basket for Easy Storage
The faster you shred your personal and professional information, the happier you will be. When you’re ready to shred, setting up the C1210 is a breeze. All you have to do is lift up the basket frame, push the posts into position, attach the shredder to the basket, and you’re ready to dispose of your private information.

Plenty of Features and Ample Shredding Power
The C1210 features stylish, glossy finish that compliments any desk or office space, and the slide-out, 4.28-gallon mesh wastebasket easily stores 280 sheets of shredded material. Feed up to 12 20-pound sheets at a time (single CDs or credit cards), and don’t worry about removing paper clips or staplers — the C1210 is powerful enough to tear right through them, too. And if you become overzealous and feed too much into your shredder, don’t fret–the C1210 has a manual reverse feature that clears the paper jams in a snap.

Aurora has designed the C1210 with overload and thermal protection so you don’t destroy the shredder’s mechanisms. The auto-start feature fires up the shredder as soon as you insert a sheet, and the simple LED on top of the C1210 indicates power, basket full, and overload. And for added safety, the shredder features an angled paper slot so you’ll never nick a finger.

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Shreds nicely - small opening
This shredder shreds very nicely, and the basket is easy to pull out and dump (it would be difficult to put a bag in it, as it slides into a slot). Assembly was easy, and it doesn’t look half bad next to my dresser (I was afraid it would look cheap, but is pretty fair). It is nice and small, so not as obvious as my older slightly wider model (which didn’t really seem to hold more paper). My minor complaint is the small, not so wide, not so deep, opening. You have to direct the papers into it carefully, however, that being said, it keeps you from jamming it - so that may not truly be a negative. Overall I am pleased with this product.

5 Stars A decent shredder
On the night the shredder was delivered, it took me no more than 5 mins to unpack box and set it up. I like the collapsible bin design, and it indeed greatly reduces consumption of non-recyclable plastic. I shredded about 5 years bank and credit card statements, and they filled about two 13 gallons garbage bag, fully compacted by my foot. The motor case even didn’t get warm afterwards. I only tried about 6 pages at a time because I believe that will help motor from being overtaxed and should keep it running longer time. I did lubricate the shredder after every 5 full bins by several pages drenched with peanut oil. The curved feeding slot design is much simple and elegant, and does not require any “high” tech proximity gadget found in some Fellowes models. The overall noise is much lower than a Fellowes in my office previously. Regardless how fancy it is, a shredder is a shredder. As long as its noise level, capacity and duty cycle meet your needs, it’s a good shredder.

4 Stars Good little shredder
Aside from the over-the-top “we’re greener than thou” packaging (a serious case of greenwashing), this is a good, solid shredder. It chops stuff up good, OK? ;o) That’s what this kind of shredder (vs. the Buckethead kind of shredder) is supposed to do - whether it has a long life is anybody’s guess (I’ve gone through a couple others already over the years). It was very easy to put together, and the bin is made out of fabric, so it packages up quite a bit smaller than it otherwise might (thus the claim of “green” - yeesh). Yes it would be nice if it were a “diamond cut” that chopped everything up in to itty-bitty pieces but it says “crosscut”, OK? That’s what it is! And that’s why it’s less expensive than the others. It was a great deal on gold box when I bought it - less so now.

5 Stars Great for home office or casual use - maybe okay for small biz
I have a home office and wanted a decent shredder - this fit the bill perfectly. Makes easy work of receipts, old credit cards or other information you don’t want to leave out by the street. Relatively quiet, simple to set up, works well and shreds to a level that puts the mind at ease. Uses a cross cut pattern that would make remains unpalatable for all but the absolutely most determined.

5 Stars Study, high quality and a steel for under $69.00!!!
Excellent high quality product that we have used relentlessly since receiving. How quickly papar receipts build up. Thank goodness we have shredders that can handle the loads without blowing a fuse or getting permanently jammed.
