Good performance
on January 7, 2013
Posted by: docjon
This is a very good, rugged shredder that I use in my small office. The only reason I didn't give it a five star rating is because of the fact that the shredded pieces are so large that they don't compact. It shuts down when full and gets full fairly quickly for its size because of the size of shredded pieces of paper. If the pieces were smaller they would compact naturally and the bin wouldn't have to be emptied so often!
Other than that, I have no negatives for this shredder. Very good product.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity, Quality Construction, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Service Guarantee, Safety Features, Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction
Cons: Secure Cut Size
I would recommend this to a friend!

Growing the business

I did NOT want to spend this much for a shredder! I am a small business owner and every dollar spent is a direct impact on net operating results. Our old shredder gummed up after five years of great service. Didn't think to oil it or it would probably continue to operate.
I did a lot of research and even brought a different one home, only to take it back to the store. Once we bought and used the Fellows, even my wife (the CFO) was pleased.
Spent a little more and got back a lot more. We couldn't be more pleased. Who would of thought that a shredder could be exciting. Spend the extra $ and don't look back!
Pros: Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity, Quality Construction, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, smooth and a very large capacity

BEST SMALL OFFICE SHREDDER FOR THE $$$$
on January 15, 2013
Posted by: Shred4days
I have owned several Fellowes shredders in the past and all of them have withstood the test of time. The 99Ci is by far the most powerful small office shredder I've owned. The SafeSense technology is a must have nowadays.
The 99Ci is extremely quite, the only noise that is noticeable is the paper being shredded to bits. Once you become familiar with the 99Ci, you can turn of the Jam prevention feature.
With a 2 year manufacture warranty, I am confident this thing will last at least 3-5 years of what I consider heavy use. Good job Fellowes on another bullet proof product.

Great Shredder
on January 24, 2013
Posted by: DFCC
This was our second Fellowes shredder. The prior one provided consistently good service for 12yrs until it finally gave up. This 99ci replacement is a bit larger, handles more capacity per run & is a cross-cut, security level 4 machine. Our last one was a strip cut, level 2, so this is definitely a step up. The advanced technology allows the machine to operate much quieter than the prior machine, which is a huge plus in the office. It also comes with optional wheels that are very handy. The only drawback is the awkwardness of emptying the pull-out bin into the plastic bags when it is full. Probably because we were used to dealing with strip cuts, the cross cut material seems to make more of a mess when emptying the bin into the bags. However, we still are very pleased so far with this model. If we can get the same life span out of this machine as we did our last one, it will be awesome.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity, Quality Construction, Warranty, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Service Guarantee, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Jam Resistance, footprint size, optional wheels
Cons: Mess Reduction

Great Product
on January 24, 2013
Posted by: Lexie
I finally wore out my old shredder and bought a 99Ci. Very happy. It is quiet and much faster than my old shredder. I have had no problems with sheet capacity, at all. I also like the large bin. However, the shredded material tends to stack up quickly. So, I routinely slide out the bin and gently compress the fluffy pile of shredded mat'l.
I looked at the video on this web site and I noticed that I did not receive a paper storage tray with my new shredder. Also, I have not been able to figure out which plastic bags that I should purchase for my shredder.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity, Quality Construction, Mess Reduction
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's nice to be able to roll around. Getting the wheels on was hard...just push and they will go in!
