The Perfect Shredder!!!
on August 10, 2021
Posted by: JeanAuburn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. I was surprised when I received it and shocked when I used it! It is the smoothest shredder and cuts through the sheets of paper like they are nothing. I could not be any happier with this shredder!!!
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Safety Features, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent shredder
on August 10, 2021
Posted by: Joeboy9
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The performance of this LX180 cross-cut shredder is amazing. This shredder is a workhorse that can handle marathon shredding sessions and has been jam proof thus far. My daughter accidently dropped a hairpin in with some shredding - no jams, no issues. I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased feedback.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs

An awesome new shredder
on August 9, 2021
Posted by: KP1457
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon opening the shipping box, I was immediately impressed with the overall design of the LX180. The design is sleeker, appears to be more compact than 79Ci. I thought the credit card flap would be missed, but actually liked the lack of the flap. Ideally with small children around and their infinite level of curiosity its removal is one less item to tempt them. As a shredder it is much quieter and a workhorse, I tend to shred bi-weekly or stretch it out further depending on the amount paper, etc that I need to shred. With other models continuous use usually trigger jams or overheating. This was not something I immediately experience with the LX180. The added feature of stables as an additional shredding option is a big plus as documents tend to either come stabled due their delivery or paperwork in house that has been stabled to keep collectively don't require the need for a stapler remover to effectively shred those documents. I honestly tested this feature several times, but of with any product didn't want to overdo it. A great additional feature. I like the icons that denote operations/status. The Forward/Reverse arrows are a cool touch. Overall this is an exceptional shredder that offers a user all they can ask for in a more well-designed package. For me, it's a definite keeper and I look forward to its usage. I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Service Guarantee, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Warranty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. Saved stack over 6" high to shred: 2 magazines, multiple staples, 2 plastic credit cards, thick envelopes of junk mail, glossy cardstock ads. Chewed through EVERYTHING like a hot knife through butter! Super quiet. All that shredding never overheated or balked. Best shredder I have EVER used!

Cons: none

Home Office Workhorse
on August 8, 2021
Posted by: nedrgr
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wasn't lookin to replace my existing Fellowes 79Ci shredder, but if it ever goes out, this will be the one. Extremely quiet and seems to run forever. I recently had the misfortune of settling an estate of an individual who saved every receipt and document. I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review and took the opportunity to put this shredder to the test. The Lx180 took everything I could throw at it and asked for more. Shredding boxes of documents, I found myself taking more breaks than the shredder was. Extremely quiet and fast. If pressed to find a shortcoming of this shredder, the only thing I could note would be basket capacity. At the rate it was consuming documents, I was pausing to empty it before it could overheat. I liked the sleek and modern design. A great addition to the office.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity

LX180 Cross Shredder
on August 7, 2021
Posted by: cgman
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A great home or small office shredder. I received this shredder about a week ago. It was easy to unpack and set up. Used the plastic bags that were supplied with the shredder and began shredding. The first day I shredded about 10 bags full. I ran the shredder constantly for about 1 and half hours before it showed the yellow Run Time indicator. However, I shut the shredder off for about 5 minutes, turned back on and away I went with my shredding. In total for the day, I ran the shredder for about 4 hours. There were no jams or overheating, no problems whatsoever. The only draw back as far as I am concerned is it would have been nice to have window pane in front to show the how much shredded paper were filling the pullout bin. I continued to use the shredder over the week, shredding approximately the same amount of documents over about the same amount of time each day; about 10 full bags of shredded paper over about 4 hours. The only jam I experienced was when I tried to shred more than 15 pages of 8 and half by 11 inches of paper at one time. As long as I kept the amount to 15 pages or less at one time, all went extremely smooth. No binding or excessive noise. I would highly recommend this shredder for anyone looking for a home or small office shredder. It gets the job done! "I received the product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review."
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs
Cons: no pullout bin window panel for checking amount

LX180
on August 6, 2021
Posted by: chloebug
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this shredder has shown a good performance and has decent features. It is quiet and shreds a good amount of paper all at once. The location of the the on/off button located in the back is awkward if kept in an enclosed location. The major drawback is its shredding capabilities i.e. only accepts paper, plastic credit cards, staples and paper clips. No CDs. I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Sheet Capacity
Cons: does not shred cds, location of on/off button
I would recommend this to a friend!
