We had one for years and it never gave us any trouble..It was drowned in Hurricane Florence and this is a replacement. Perfect for a moderate amount of use...
Was given to my mom for Christmas. Everyone loved it. Perfect size, quiet, no need to assemble, other than to add the coasters if you would like to be able to roll it. Shreds credit cards, CD's, staples, great sheet capacity and bin size.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Service Guarantee, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hey there Very Satisfied, we love that you love your new 99Ci! This unit is definitely a user favorite and we appreciate your review.
Shopped several brands on the internet and found this model to review the best for this price range. Another family member had purchased the same model and recommended it to me. My old Royal quit and there were no parts available to fix it.

We thank you for your review and we thank your friend for their recommendation!
Ten days after delivery of the 99Ci, the machine has become unusable. Although I remove all staples and paper clips, the machine has stopped shredding. Seven days after purchase I was forced to insert no more than four pages or the machine would jam. Next, the shredded paper would not drop into the paper bin causing it stop working, sensing the bin was full. The final straw was on the tenth day when shredding stopped—holes were punched into the paper inserted, not shredded.
Pros: Safety Features
Cons: Jam Resistance, Quality Construction, Secure Cut Size
In my garage there were 7 file boxes containing health insurance records many with my social security number for everyone to see, credit card statements, bank statements and payment records from my employer again with my social security number on them. These records dated back to 2003 and for 15 years I've been dreading disposing of them and unwilling to pay the outrageous price to have a contractor shred them. In one week's time working about 1 hour a day I was able to shred all these documents. I no longer keep paper documents only secure files on the cloud. My shredding requirements going forward will be minimal and the 99CI Jam Proof Shredder will handle the work load just fine.
