Sanity saver!

New year's goal was to get my mail and paper work in some kind of order. I saw your shredder advertised in the target flyer.I decided that's what I needed and sure enough it had been the best little worker. No more worries about my name getting in the recycling junk mail.I just put it through powershred63CB and it turns it into pet bedding.I especially like the cool down feature.I have had no problems and have all ready reached my goal for this year thanks to Fellowes powershred63CB. I give this product 5 stars hands down.

much less mess than others
on June 19, 2016
Posted by: Ludeman
First of all, this shredder works great, but what I like most is that the waste basket works well in reducing the mess. The previous 2 models I had, when you pulled the wastebasket out, you couldn't prevent the shredded paper from getting all over the place and you would have to vacuum. There is very little mess with this model.
Pros: Quality Construction, Jam Resistance, Safety Features, Quiet Operation, Secure Cut Size, Mess Reduction, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs

Cheapley made, had to put felt pads under unit, so it would not scratch the floor. Motor/shred sits on a flimsy cabinet. Unit is quit.
Pros: Quiet Operation
Cons: Quality Construction
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

SafeSense doesn't work
on September 13, 2013
Posted by: Colzie
Our previous shredder was a Fellowes and was a real workhorse. Had high hopes for the 63Cb.
Out of the box the SafeSense on our unit did not work. You could put your fingers all over the metal opening while running and it would never stop. Tech support was very good about sending out a new unit, got it within a few days.
Second unit does same thing. Tried all fingers in the house, nothing could stop it.
That aside, the paper has to be slid down very far before it gets pulled in, so trying to shred one sheet doesn't work well because the paper is to flimsy to easily get past the "trigger" and down far enough to get sucked in. If you are trying to shred one receipt forget it. It will be a crumpled mess but definitely not shredded unless you feed it in with a stack of paper.
Jam indicator comes on quite easily. However haven't used the unit for long enough to see if it works well or not.
Now we have one unit to send back to the factory and another unit to take back to the store.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Secure Cut Size
Cons: Mess Reduction, Safety Features, hard to shred single sheet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

New Purchase
on September 15, 2014
Posted by: NewPurchaser
Like this shredder a lot. Seems to be very safe (in terms of protecting fingers if they're even close to the shred area) and energy-efficient--I don't feel bad leaving this shredder plugged in. Nice size bin means you don't have to empty it too often.
Pros: Quiet Operation, Warranty, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Service Guarantee, Jam Resistance, energy efficient
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just the machine for the job
on September 21, 2015
Posted by: Mykey
My wife had accumulated a mountain of bills,credit card statements,and other sensitive information. My current shredder was not up to the task;it died in the process. What to do? What do do?After perusing my options on line I selected the Fellowes Powershred 63CB. It worked its way through the pile of paper like a piranha on a cow. Quickly,efficiently,with unforgiving teeth. Very happy.
Pros: Quality Construction, Jam Resistance, Safety Features, Quiet Operation

I gave it a fair chance
on August 1, 2013
Posted by: Cassandra
I am disappointed with the performance of this shredder. the design is poor in that the contain does not easily slid in and out and can be tricky to reinsert. the Jam blocker has yet to realize that it is supposed to prevent jams....not constantly cause them. I really feel like I spent way to much for the shredder but I was brand loyal and opted to stick with Fellowes. Unfortunately when this one dies I will consider some other brands.
Pros: Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Secure Cut Size
Cons: Quality Construction, Jam Resistance
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
