Impressive Shredder
on August 25, 2009
Posted by: Caroline
The Fellowes shredder is far more superior to the past two shredders I have owned. I like the size of it plus the lighted controls that let you know when to use the shredder as well as when the container is not properly in place.
I definitely would recommend the Fellowes shredder to family and friends!

Great Shredder
on August 25, 2009
Posted by: DonM
This shredder is quiet, powerful, and creates very small particles. It's a great deal for the price. We use it daily, but have only had it a month, so its durability is yet to be determined. It's attractive and was easy to set up and operate.
The only minor issue is that paper sometimes flops over as it's feeding in and triggers the safety mechanism, stopping the shredder. It doesn't happen often, so it's not bothersome.

GREAT SHREDDER
on August 25, 2009
Posted by: JOHN
This is the second Fellows shredder that we have owned. We purchased this because we had such good luck with the first one which we owned for 15 years. The new one is super quiet and so safe to operate we even let our 5yr old grandson operate it. It shreds credit cards and dvd's with ease and never jams. The safety features are super. We expect to have this one for another fifteen years. It gets a lot of use with all the junk mail etc.

This is the second full size shredder I have owned.
It is a dream to use. Quiet and smooth to operate.
The best part is NO JAMS.
My old shredder drove me crazy with the jamming, this is a treat to use.

Great shredder!

This paper shredder will take up to 12 sheets (depending on thickness) and has no problems with staples, credit cards, etc. It's very quick as long as you don't put too many pages in at once, but if you do, it takes some time for the shredder to put things in reverse and then forward again. That's the "Jam Proof" technology working. You can override it by pressing a combination of two buttons on the shredder. I've found that if you can fit it through the paper slot, it can munch it up into tiny pieces without causing any jams or problems. It takes quite a while to get hot and once it does, it puts itself on a break until it is cool enough to be used again. I believe this is saving it's life, whereas it would probably overheat from the amount of paper shredding I force upon it in one sitting. The pull out paper bin is a very nice feature, but you have to be a little firm with it to click it back into place after dumping the paper shreds. If you had some top secret stuff to shred, I would suggest a shredder that cuts into smaller shreds, but for your average "I want to protect myself from identity theft" issues, this should do just fine. It's super quiet as well... my cats aren't even threatened by it! All in all, I'm very pleased.
