SB-99Ci Shredder
on November 17, 2009
Posted by: RochesterChuckles
The unit was received within 2-days. I took it out of the box and set it up without the wheels which I've kept just in case I decide to install them. The handy bin to hold papers to be shredded, I'm using to hold plastic bags to line the shredder bin drawer and the lubricant for the shredder.
I've found the unit to be quiet and very efficient. I especially like the safety features of the unit.
The only drawback I've found so far is if you stick a small item into the shredder, the unit might turn on but possibly won't "grab" what you're shredding. Other than that, it's great.
You do need to open the drawer periodically to spread the shred around so that it doesn't stack up in one place but I've had to do that with all my other shredders.
Pros: Quality Construction, Jam Resistance, Safety Features, Quiet Operation, Secure Cut Size, Mess Reduction, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Sheet Capacity, Service Guarantee, Warranty
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I use this for a home office. It is quiet and easily handles 10+ sheets of paper without jamming. I highly recommend it.

Good Shredder
on November 16, 2009
Posted by: DaraTheExplorer
This is a pretty reliable shredder, but we ended up with a jam that could not be undone. This shredder is very safe. If you have small children, I would recommend this product. Thus we are receiving a new shredder as ours was still covered by the warranty.

Great Buy!
on November 12, 2009

Our office has been sharing an older shredder that has simply become worn out. The SB-99Ci is a great buy! This shredder operated quietly and quickly. I have not had any jams and the basket is large and doesn't require constant emptying. I would recommend this shredder to anyone looking for the whole package.

Runs Good
on October 27, 2009
Posted by: lawoffice
I really like how this operates. The sheet rating is a bit high, but works much better than my other less-expensive Fellowes shredder.
First two units came defective from Amazon. Not sure if that was shipping or what. Fellowes customer service was excellent in resolving the issues. It almost made me want to go with a different model, but the third works great. Nobody dreads the shred anymore!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Purchase

This shredder is great! We have a lot of shredding to do in our office and it handles it all. We can wheel it around the store too, which is nice. Handles alot of paper at once and very user friendly. I would recommend to any one.

You get what you pay for
on October 26, 2009
Posted by: nyrxman
When it comes to Shredders I learned a long time ago you really do get what you pay for. I have a small home business and really did not need such a large shredder, but I got tired of emptying out bags and wanted a shredder with larger capacity. This shredder fit the bill for me. It is as they say 100% jam proof (but then again, why would you want to even try to jam it). And it performs all of its duties as advertised. I fits nicely in my home office. Since it sits sideways, it take up much less room than a "front loading" shredder. But what really impressed me was how quiet is is compared to shredders I've had in the past. Let's face it, at some point all shredders implode. This one seems to be well built and should last for quite a while if not overworked. I think the biggest problem with shredders is that many people pick a shredder that is undersized for the jobs it needs to handle and burns out quicker. I went for the bigger one with the hopes I will have it a while.
I recommend it.
Pros: Quality Construction, Jam Resistance, Safety Features, Quiet Operation, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, side profile
Cons: Secure Cut Size
