We replaced our small shredder with the 99ci. It is quiet, perfect size for a small office. Love that is shreds through papers that are stapled less hassle. Best purchase ever. Would recommend for home or office.

I purchased this unit with the hope of reducing the billing from the secure paper removal company we currently use. Wasn't sure if this was the answer. It has certainly exceeded expectations so far. Quiet, efficient operation. Handles 18 sheets of paper effortlessly. Great investment.

Sounds like an ingenious plan that you had! Thank you for choosing Fellowes.
Liked first so bought a second. From day 1 auto shutoff does not work. Shows too many sheets loaded even if there are only 6 and jams repeatedly. Thought over time there would be a "break in" and it would work better. Same issues. Tried cleaning semsor as shown - No difference
Cons: Jam Resistance, Sheet Capacity
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Fellowes 99Ci arrived 3 days after I ordered it through Amazon. It had great reviews, but it was a little over my budget. Because I have owned at least 4 shredders in the past, which never lasted more than a year, it was time to bite the bullet and find a good one. I am not disappointed! This shredder surpasses all my expectations and was well worth the money. It was a little taller than I expected but it fits perfectly next to my desk. It is super quiet, the design is one you want to show off and the bells and whistles are outstanding. I know if I'm putting in too many pages by the indicator light and it shows when the basket is getting full. It will even shred small paper clips and staples! I just love this shredder and would recommend it to anyone.

This used for my home use. I am so glad I took the leap to the higher end model. I got tired of the constant jamming of my previous model, yes it lasted a long time but this will outlive me. I appreciate the safety features of this model as well. Give this model a second look and if you do your homework as far as price you will be able to be the winner at a great price for a quality product. The shreds are larger than I thought they would be but provide needed security. Never have to open the junk mail anymore it eats it up in one swoop.

This product was purchased to replace a Fellowes product that we have used at our office for 5 years without any troubles and we have used everyday. I also use a Fellowes product at home and have had no issues.
I purchased a shredder for our office and it is used frequently by everyone in our office. Never had a jam or any problems with it. Liked it so well we purchased another one for another office. I won't buy another brand!!
