With only 3 people in our office, we have a multitude of shredding due to the ever-changing laws regarding personal security. This is the perfect size and has the durability to handle what we have to shred. I recommend it for small to medium office size (up to 7 people, I would think).
I just got my new shredder about 5 days ago. I had a back log of documents to shred. Fully filled the shredder basket about twenty times in ten to 1 fifteen minute sessions with plenty of cooling time. I over loaded the shredder several times, but it automatically recovered with no problem. It really is Jam proof and works well.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity, Quality Construction, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, have no experience regarding service or warranty
I would recommend this to a friend!

problem closing door
on May 25, 2014
Posted by: toughy
I bought this machine in July 2013. It is heavy duty, jam proof, etc. The problem I have is the door is hard to close and the casters have broken twice. Fellowes was excellent in replacing the body the first time but now they have broken again. Initially I thought it was because I moved it on carpet but this time it is on solid material, not carpet. I believe the problem is that I cannot close the door without a strong push and that jars the machine and breaks the plastic material holding the casters in place. I am wondering if there are any heavy duty machines with a metal body holding the casters or is something wrong with my door.
Pros: Warranty, Service Guarantee, excellent friendly customer service

Best Purchase Ever
on May 28, 2014
Posted by: Angel2
Have only had this shredder for a short time but it was purchased to replace another Fellows shredder that we had that had worn out from many, many years of every day use. This one operates quietly and we are looking forward to many years of service.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Jam Resistance
Cons: Sheet Capacity

The correct size for a small office
on May 30, 2014
Posted by: DontShredonMe
If you have a 12" tall pile of shredding each day, this shredder is for you. Anything less than this size is underpowered. Has a 3 prong plug, which I prefer. Indicator lights to stop you from accidentally feeding too much paper at one time. Is quiet. I'm not crazy about the clear plastic flip feed thing for CD-Roms but I guess they want you to feed them dead center and that helps. Its thick enough but I'm just afraid of breaking it. I'd rather it be a separate feed slot that leads to the same place.
Great features for a small office - very quiet for a shredder and fast operation.

Just started using the 99Ci - impressive
on June 11, 2014
Posted by: AJshreds
This is a replacement for a shredder that we had for a short time, very much in the same class of the 99Ci. Really, there is no comparison as the Fellows shredder is head and shoulders above. Everything is as advertised and the product performs exactly as stated. I am pleased with the purchase.
