I'm Amazed!
on July 24, 2018
Posted by: Composter
I can't believe how the 99Ci just shreds everything you throw its way! I'm getting into composting so everything is getting shredded for the compost pile. Just did about 20 boxes last night. I'm talking regular and thick corrugated cardboard. It chews right through them. I saw this demonstrated on YouTube video reviews of the 99Ci and now I can confirm that it really works well! Great machine!
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Sheet Capacity, Warranty
I would recommend this to a friend!

We love that you are amazed! Please be mindful that our 99Ci shredder is not designed to shred corrugated and doing so may harm your new shredder. The 99Ci can shred staples, credit cards, paper Clips, CDs/DVDs and junk mail.

Excellent Value
on July 26, 2018
Posted by: MisterB
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.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Service Guarantee, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Warranty
I would recommend this to a friend!

99CI is a quality shredder

Smooth and powerful! We don't shred enough to give this machine a work out but we do use this one long enough to overheat a smaller unit.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quiet Operation, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Warranty

Terrible experience with Powershred 99Ci
on November 24, 2018
Posted by: Boatman77
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
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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...

Very Pleased
on January 14, 2020
Posted by: 83shreddermom
Have already completed today's max shredding and all went so smoothly and very quiet. Product is easy to move around on the castors once I got them installed. Had to use a rubber hammer on two of them. It handled 15 sheets very quietly. Wish the manual had included oiling instructions and had to discover online.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Secure Cut Size, Sheet Capacity, Warranty, very quiet even with stapled paper
Cons: manual could be larger to read
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for providing this important feedback, 83shredderman. We are thrilled you are having a five-star experience, but sorry the quick user guide did not include the oiling instructions. You may download a copy of the complete manual on www.fellowes.com or call us and we would be happy to mail you a copy! Thank you for choosing Fellowes!

Eats Junk Mail
on February 19, 2020
Posted by: N0m0reclutter
I should have bought this a long time ago. I had a "home" shredder that did not work well or last long. This Brand tears through junk mail, credit cards, and is much more secure than the strip style shredders. I just plowed through an entire box of junk mail and it was more satisfying than I ever could have imagined. Staples, paper clips, this beast never skipped a beat!
Pros: Jam Resistance, Mess Reduction, Quality Construction, Quiet Operation, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Service Guarantee, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Warranty, satisfying
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great for home or small office

I searched many brands for a secure cross cut shredder and found this one within my price range and it's features. Absolutely, the best cross shredder. I have had no issues with my machine and can handle my shredding capacity with ease. I love the jam free feature.
Pros: Jam Resistance, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs
Cons: online ordering
I would recommend this to a friend!
