User questions & answers

Question:	can you use a bag
Answer:	There is an interlock on the shredder that prevents it from operating unless it's sitting on the shredded paper receptacle - usually a switch in a slot on the head that is closed by a tab on the receptacle. If the bag doesn't interfere with that interlock, it should work. A very thin bag, or a bag cut out specifically to not interfere with the interlock, will likely work.
Question:	Is this a medium duty cycle for a small office
Answer:	It would be great for a small office. Just be careful not to put thicker sheets or folded sheets in too often or it will overheat the system and you have to wait 15 - 20 minutes for it to cool down. Stick to one or 2 sheets at a time. If you have a lot of paperwork, you may want to go up a size because the basket fills up pretty quickly. Overall, it is a good little machine.
Question:	What's the warranty on this shredder
Answer:	Great question... I checked the Instruction Manual to find that there is no mention of a warranty... It's a lazy Sunday afternoon (August 17th, 4:34 PM PDT) so I called Amazon Customer Service (1-800-216-1072)... The very nice lady who answered (Marya) tells me that while the warranty information does not appear anywhere on the Amazon website, there is a one-year warranty on ANY AmazonBasic product, including the 6-sheet cross-cut paper shredder (ASIN# B00HFJWKWK)... Good to know... We've had this unit a couple of months and love it... Only challenge is that we generate a whole heckuva lot more shreds than we imagined... Would be great if we could order a basket about three or four times as large...
Question:	Which shredder oil is recommended for this shredder
Answer:	The easiest oil to use are the shredder oil sheets. No mess, no fuss. https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-SP12A-Shredder-Sharpening-Lubricant/dp/B01H7M7BXM/

Thermal Protection for Safety

The shredder will automatically shut off to protect the motor if it runs beyond its maximum run time or begins to over-heat.

User questions & answers

Answer:	You will need about 4 hamsters and 1/2 cup of seeds and (of course) a wheel. Just make sure to switch hamsters when it starts to slow or when feet turn from pink to rose-colored. No need for electricity!

User questions & answers

Question:	will it shred cardboard
Answer:	I have heard it WILL shred cardboard. To answer the dude about why you would want to shred cardboard? You must not have a big yard. We composters are dying for ways to use what comes from delivery nonstop at home! Also, I’ve heard it makes decent packing material. I’m getting one!
Question:	Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the Bonsaii C149-C Shredder
Answer:	21-3/8 tall14-1/4 wide11-1/2 deep
Question:	What is the warranty time period by the manufacturer
Answer:	I purchased C149-D and while the warranty was stated in the Instruction Manual there was no information as to how to return the item or how to contact customer service (instructions state to call Customer Service). Did anyone else have the same experience with the documentation? I thought that was a little odd so I contacted Amazon and was told that the warranty is usually upheld with the manufacturer but if they are unwilling to work with you, Amazon will generally work with you to honor the warranty. I will rely on Amazon's assurance as I want to give this shredder a try.
Question:	Where can I get a replacement bag
Answer:	You can use any trash liner that will fit in the bin. I think we're using 33 gallon size. As a side note, the manual says there are hooks/tabs inside the bin that are there to hold the liner, but we found it easier to drape the liner over the bin itself. It doesn't look as pretty, but it minimizes the shredded paper that ends up on the floor.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why the 1 to 2 month shipping time
Answer:	1-2 month shipping time? I went back and looked at the item, it says prime eligible, which is just 2 days!
Question:	What kind of lubricant/sharpening sheets are recommended for this machine? Or is an oil better
Answer:	The manufacturer says ' DO NOT USE OIL". I purchased the NUOVA Shredder Sharpening and Lubricant Sheets, they are simple to use. I use one sheet a month, just run sheet through shredder then run in reverse for ten seconds. I have been doing this since I purchased the shredder and it has reduced the paper dust that builds up on the underside of the shredder head and I don't have the problem of paper sticking to the teeth.
Question:	Can this handle shredding the new credit cards with chips in them? My last shredder is now broken because of the chip cards
Answer:	I honestly do not think chipped credit cards would be an issue at all. I doubt the shredder would ever notice it. The chip is a very thin fragile piece of copper. Try to find the manual online for the shredder you are looking at, if it can handle staples and small paperclips, then a chipped card would be nothing.
Question:	how many sheets of paper can you put in at once
Answer:	Do you want the "official" answer or a practical one? Officially I believe the previous responders are correct by saying 8 sheets. From my experience, I believe that if you were to feed in sheets eight at a time, you would find that the shredder would soon overheat and the circuit breaker would trip off. That requires a somewhat lengthy cool-down period before you can resume shredding operations. (If you only go through a limited number of cycles of 8 sheets each, that would be okay.) In my experience, it generally handles 4 sheets at a time over a prolonged period. This is the case when I am clearing out last years credit card receipts, utility bills, etc. That can add up to a fair amount of paper for shredding. Is this a scientific exact answer? No, but it is what I have done to get good results from my shredder. Have I ever tripped the circuit breaker? Yep. They say experience is the best teacher. While this is somewhat long winded, I hope it gives you a useful answer for what to expect.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is actual dimensions of the opening where you feed paper in
Answer:	8 1/2 to 9 ins. opening. Love this shredder! Can shred junk mail without opening envelope! Bin is large and easily empties!
Question:	Does the top with the shredding part lift off or is it one single unit
Answer:	It is a single unit. The front pulls out as a separate shred waste basket so that it can be dumped. Or, we place a kitchen trash bag in the waste basket to keep it clean and make it easier to dump by simply removing the bag. It is very convenient.
Question:	Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but does shredded material take up less space in the trash can than unshredded material? Approx % difference
Answer:	no - when shredded, material is aerated (fluffed up with air). later, when bagging the material you can squeeze some air out before closing the (plastic) bag but unshredded, flattened paper and magazines are denser, heavier than shredded paper.
Question:	How wide is the paper opening
Answer:	I agree with Jeff McComb's answer on August 19, 2014, "Its a tad wider than a 8 1/2 sheet of paper----but it will accept a number of sheets of paper"
