How much money should I be spending on a shredder for my home and home office?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It's fine as a small office shredder.
Unless you plan to seriously annoy the German government (or similar body) you shouldn't need anything too sophisticated. The main thing to think about is convenience... being able to shred plenty of sheets at once, and keep going for as long as you're likely to need to without the thing overheating.

M$Next you need to think about how many pages you need to shred. If its just a few sheets daily no problem but if you need to shred a filing cabinet full you'll need one that can handle lots of pages at once, whereas inexpensive shredders may only handle 10 or fewer pages at a time.
The $15000 kit will probably grind the paper very small and will handle very large quantities.

M$Strip-cut shredders cut paper into narrow strips and are among the least secure ones.
Cross-cut or confetti-cut shredders cut rectangular, parallelogram, or diamond-shaped shreds.
Cardboard shredders that are designed specifically to shred corrugated material into either strips or a mesh pallet.
Particle-cut shredders create tiny square or circular pieces. This one seems quit secure.
Disintegrators and granulators repeatedly cut the paper at random until the particles are small enough to pass through a mesh. (very secure)
Grinders which grinds paper to small pieces. (very secure)
Spending under or around 250 USD on a shredder for office use is decent. The Fellowes DS-1 Fashion Shredder seems good. Other choices could be the Staples Mailmate M3 12-Sheet Shredder, the Aurora 31215 12-Sheet Medium-Duty Cross-Cut Shredder or the Fellowes Powershred DM-12C 12-Sheet Cross-cut Shredder.

M$The one I purchased from Walmart at about $30 serves my purpose.

M$It depends on how shredded you want them, and that price range is about right. Do you want it reduced to ribbons or to dust?
Twenty bucks will get you ribbons, that's about it.
If you really want to pulverize the stuff, though, you may have to notch up that budget to this:
