I haven't found it yet & my 3 kids shred a weeks worth of school papers in it regularly. So it is much longer than any other shredder I've ever owned.

I bought this shredder last year, and am impressed with its thorough shredding (tiny particles, not strips), speed and (apparent) power. Haven't run it in a continuous mode, but have intermittently shredded small batches of paperwork during tax season. I've owned three shredders in the past five years, and nothing else could compare with this one. Highly recommended.

5 Amps like the previous response indicated. I've had this shredder since 2007 and used it almost daily with no problems whatsoever. It's my understanding that this model has been discontinued (or upgraded to a new model), but in my opinion, this is the very best shredder I have ever owned.

I have not had the unit overheat yet and have shredded a lot of material - I also tend to throw unopened junk mail in the shredder and it has no issues. This is the best shredder I have ever used. The only two things I can think of that are negative is the bin is a little small but I knew this when I purchased it and the corners on my bin were bent (plastic) and it was obvious this was not from shipping - it's minor and does not affect anything just cosmetic.

I bought this shredder because it was highly rated by Good Housekeeping. The directions say to rest it after only 2 minutes of shredding. I have had no problems with overheating but I don't shred a huge stack of paper before giving it a rest.

Because the shreds are micro it will hold a large quantity - not sure of an exact number of sheets though. I have not had to empty it with normal usage for several weeks. Agree that it might well be 1 to 2 hundred shredded sheets.

Run time ? Don't understand. will cut one sheet at a time. It needs to cool off after 15 sheets.

I've used this for a half hour of hardcore shredding (lots of bills/envelopes etc.), without any trouble. I've never gone longer than that though.

Stacie, I have a Fellowes DS-3 10 and I am quite satisfied with its power and performance. I have had other shredders that do not come close to the quality and the performance of this machine. I give it 5 stars hands down--thanks, Ron

As taken from the back of the shredder "115VAC 5Amp 60Hz". Hope this helps you out!

This is my third shredder and all of them labored a bit when the max sheet load is used. So, I don't go beyond maybe 8 sheets with this one. As for speed, it works just as fast as my previous shredder which was a crosscut shredder.

I'm not really sure I bought this shredder for someone else. So far he hasn't had any problems but make sure the blades aren't clogged up with anything or it might just be defective. Hope this helps!

I can't compare but I am extremely happy with the shredder as far as quality and how much it can shred at a time. recommend highly.

I do not use the shredder . I returned it because I found it very dangerous. you have to be extremely careful with it. the first time I used it the last swipe I cut half my nail off of my little finger. I have heard others ended up at the hospital due to the bleeding. don't buy it ! it should be taken off the market. don't waste your money!

I just tested it for you and ground through one of the daily junk mail Chase credit card apps envelopes, and it shredded it no problem. I love my Fellowes. It's the best shredder I've purchased. Remember to use some oil every now and then, per the instructions, to keep it moving well. I also take the top off and make sure nothing has wrapped itself around anything. Be sure to unplug it first, says Momma Sharon, I don't think you will be disappointed.

If you mean how long does it take to shred a full sized sheet of paper, the answer is probably about 3 seconds.
