To shred is excellent...to feed paper not too great...its a bit of a strange angle but protects your fingers.

I absolutely love this shredder. While I don't do the full 6 sheets at a time, I love the way it cuts the paper into such small pieces.
Fantastic product!!!

Far exceeded my expectations. ..in both price and performance.  I was unhappy with my old shredder, overheating after 5 minutes of use.
NOT the case anymore.... This shredder has a great appetite and hasn't stopped since I got it.
I recommend it to everyone!

I purchased this shredder after my 8-sheet Aurora bit the dust.  It would always jam and it just seemed poorly made.  When I got the Fellowes Powershred, I immediately knew it was going to be better.  It is very sturdy and seems to be capable of handling 10-sheets at a time.  My last shredder said it could handle 8 sheets, but clearly couldn't.  The Fellowes has excellent speed and power.  The safety features are nice because now I know when I need to rest the machine to prevent over heating.  Also there is a safety feature at the opening that will automatically shut off the device if you touch it.  I use the shredder for small shredding batches and it seems like it will hold up well.  Credit cards are also no problem and it doesn't sound like the motor strains to shred it.  This shredder is excellent for moderate household use.

It is so much easier emptying this shredder basket.  All I have to do is slide it out sideways.  Before, I had to lift the whole heavy mechanism, dripping shredded paper, looking for a place to rest it while emptying the shredded paper.
Also, the fine shredding permits more paper to pack into the basket.  I have owned it for 8 months and highly recommend this one.

I have been using this shredder for over a year now and during that time I have been extremely pleased with its operations.

It pretty much shreds everything i put in it and it never ever jams.  I have been processing a ton of paper documents in an effort to reach GTD nirvana and this shredder is one of my trusty companions.  I find it will take even more pages than advertised.  You just have to press the forward button to power through large stacks, which is easy enough for me to do.

My biggest complaint about the shredder is the design of the paper storage basket.  There are some jagged edges in there that make it difficult to remove a plastic bag without it ripping.  I have mastered the art of removing the bag, but it is an unnecessary difficulty.  They may do this on purpose to make you buy fellowes shredder bags, but i didn't really like the quality of those bags.

I use the Fellowes shredder oil as directed in liberal application, and I think it is worth it to keep this shredder in tip top form.

Excellent shredder.  Can't recommend this enough.  Does the job more quietly than expected.  Very durable and efficient.

I just had to see how much it would shred. It handles 8 sheets easily. And will choke down 12 with a little effort. (Hope this doesn't void my warrenty.) I couldn't fit any more in the slot without wadding them up.  If by some chance you happen to jam it there is a reverse button.  Only does strip shredding but great for moderately good security. And the price is right.  I would have given it 5 stars but is just a strip shredder.  However that's good enough for just about everyone but Enron.  It works very well.  Now I need to find some more stuff to shred.

Absolutely delighted.  It was delivered in two days as promised.  I was able to lift the box and to eventually extract the item from its several boxes noting that the shredder was in pristine condition.  I was able to set it up and turn it by following the brief instructions.  It works as advertised.  I am rarely delighted and I am beyond pleased to be able to report absolutely terrific service - product and your handling of it.

I bought this shredding disc because the 7-cup Cuisinart processor I had bought came with a disc that was too coarse. I was used to a manual French shredder with a fine disc that I used for carrots, potatoes or celery root. The fine shredding disc is perfect in that it allows me to shred veggies the way I was used to and prefer. I must add that the result I had with carrots was finely grated food, firm and not mushy.

Finally a shredder that works properly, is quiet, and will chew through more than advertised. Well worth the investment.

I am very happy that I purchased this shredder.  It shreds paper so fine that it's almost in a powder form.  Because of this, I am able to put more into trash bags to take out.  I also like it because it is not too large or bulky, just the right size for storing under my desk.  I would definitely recommend this item to others.

I think the shred bands are an excellent product.  Well made, easy to use, and effective. I am healing from stem cell injections to my hip labrum and psoas tendon, so am only able to use at 2 lowest weights, but like the results even from that weight.  Thank you for your product.

This is a great shredder.  Looks great, works great, good price.  Very pleased.  I like the separate slot to run plastic credit cards through.  Rather heavy to lift, but good handle slots, so no problem.

The best shredder I've purchased to date. A little top heavy but effortlessly shreds 7 sheets at a time. No problems yet.

Only the GREAT SHREDDER Dean Cascione could do "Jingle Bells" in Shred mode!!! I've known this fellow for 12 years and I only have praise for his progressing in the world of "Shredding"
  I strongly recommend listening to his two other cd's "Guitar Chop Shop" and his most recent "Neoclassical Fire" by Dean.
  Listening to "Neoclassical Fire" you will notice just how far Dean has progressed!!!!  You must listen to both and make your own determination. This is not a plug for you to spend money just for the sake of spending, but to really get to know this wonderful person, and great guitarist!!!

Being both powerful and quiet, this is an excellent shredder. Surely this would more than suffice for any home or small office environment.
