I even reviewed it on Costco.com with pictures to show exactly what I mean.
First one came with broken plastic bits in the shredder head and the basket warps when the shredder head is attached.
Got a replacement from them with the same issue where the basket warps when the shredder head is attached.
Went to the local warehouse to check the model they have on display and they had the same issue where the basket cant support the weight of the shredder head.
A few months later on a road trip to another state, I stopped by two more Costco (one in Delaware, one in Virginia) both on display also had the exact same issue.
Late 2025, I flew out to Colorado for a trip and stopped in the Costco in Colorado Springs to pick up some snacks and also saw the shredder on display also had the same issue.
Yes, people can form their own opinion and my experience is anecdotal, but if you check the reviews on Costco.com, its not an isolated issue. There's some glaring quality control issue that Royal hasn't addressed.
Community Reviews
This Royal 14 sheet micro cut shredder is best for steady home use, with small cuts, decent quietness, and enough power for paper, credit cards, staples, and even some cardboard. It has held up for months or years in several homes and offices, and the motor fan and Costco return policy add some peace of mind. The main concern is quality control, with reports of cracked plastic, warped baskets, and a brittle case that should be checked on arrival. It can also bog down or jam if overloaded, and speed is its biggest weakness.
Home offices shredding regular paperwork and credit cards, because it handles multiple sheets and credit cards without issues.
Households that shred a few sheets at a time, because it runs fine for light home use and stays dependable when not overloaded.
People shredding staples and sealed junk mail, because the cutting mechanism handles staples and can take junk mail two at a time.
Busy home users wanting a quiet micro-cut shredder, because it makes small cuts and runs fairly quietly.
Shoppers who need a ruggedly built unit for rough handling, because the plastic case can be brittle and quality control issues include cracked parts and warped baskets.
People who need fast shredding of large paper stacks, because it bogs down when overloaded beyond its sheet limit.
Users feeding thick junk mail or heavy card stock, because it can jam when pushed with thicker material.
People who want a large bin that is easy to bag, because the bin is small and its protrusions can puncture bags.
