This is one tough shredder. It’s been running for hours with very few breaks. The chips that come out are really tiny making it essentially impossible to piece the pages back together. It’s quiet for what it does and is pretty intuitive in terms of sensing if hands are nearby and if a jam will occur. If it thinks there will be a jam it pushes the pages back out a little then pulls them back in. I will say it looses half a star because the safety sensors sometimes go crazy and the entire machine goes dark. Not until you either unplug it or pull the drawer does it turn back on. Then it works again for a while until the sensors trip again. That can be disruptive but is a minor nuisance. It appears to be caused by having your hands close to the feeding slot too many times. Sometimes though it’s not an option because receipts are smaller in size. Overall this is a great shredder with a stellar warranty of three years. Let’s see how it holds up over time. Don’t forget to oil it every time you empty the bin though.

This thing positively eats paper for breakfast. It does jam occasionally but not too often, mostly when you had the hubris of shoving an absurd number of sheets or envelopes at the gaping maw without consideration. That does work sometimes though so it's tempting.

I bought a Fellowes back in 2008 and did an upgrade. This is a much quieter and robust machine. I'm very happy with it so far.

I really like this shredder; big capacity for shredded material and effortlessly shreds what I put in it, however, the red light comes on for no apparent reason and I have to pull the shredded paper container out and reset the shredder to get the red light to go out. Turning the power switch on and off does not reset the red light or whatever is causing it to come on and lock up the shredder. Other than that, it works well and has a reasonable noise level.

I used to buy very inexpensive shredders that would only last a few years. Twelve years ago I recieved my first Fellowes shredder as a gift. I'm still using it today. I finally decided that I would upgrade to an even better one, and glad I did. It shreds more sheets at a time. It's much quieter compared to my last one. I like all the bells and whistles that come with it. I figured if the other one, which was an entry level one, lasted for twelve years; this upgrade would do the same. The one complaint I have , it seems like the pull out bin is a little hard to get out and more flimsy than the other bin. But i'm hoping with constant use; it will not be as difficult to pull out overtime. Having this one on wheels makes it so much easier to move around. I highly recommend Fellows and in particular this one; if you have the money to spend.

Love this shredder! I shred everything and this holds a lot of material. The micro cut keeps the paper from fluffing up and “filling” with air. It empties without making a big mess and a trash bag does not cause a mess with paper falling out before it’s full. Also quiet.

Works well and runs for long periods provided you don’t overload it. Reasonably quiet given the job it’s doing, assuming you oil it as recommended. Worth the price. I would absolutely buy it again.

Quiet, Compact, Safety feature that stops shredder when a finger or hand touches near or on the shredder intake port.White is beautiful looking color but may show up the appearance of dirt on it.Had it delivered to Whole Foods and packaged in another huge box to help ensure an undamaged intact shredder.Love using it. It is fast and quiet and can't wait to "Edward Scissor Hands" my way through the paper that I needed to shred during the last three years.Feels like a Re-Birth of the Mind and Soul, getting rid of paper. The size of the shredded paper is small. Lined the interior drawer with a large black trash bag. Purchased the extended four year warranty just in case, should it ceases to work. Hoping it will last in my home and plan to shred as needed (daily not a terribly high volume of mail and junk mail, but a larger mass of my three year stockpile of paper documents).Highly Recommend this Quality product. Get it while it lasts, because once you use this one you won't go back to your other shredders.

I asked a question earlier about how to secure bags in the shredder receptacle. I ended up calling Fellowes for guidance. First, you don't even need shredder bags. Second, if you decide to use bags, there are two tabs on each side at the front of the receptacle bin (see Photo #1); take your bag and thread it through under the tab. In Photo #2, I thread the bag twice around the tab for more security. However, as the bag becomes more full, the bag will slip out of the tabs. I got two starter bags with the machine. Once the second one is used, I'll more than likely try it without.All in all, I really love the shredder (I've only been using it for two weeks). I primarily purchased it based on reputation, and I really wanted a white shredder given that all the furniture in my home office is white. Not disappointed!

This is my 2nd Fellows shredder. The first one lasted over 20 years; through home business and 3 1/2 years of grad school. It finally sounded like an airplane engine and was not able to shred effectively - it served valiantly. This new micro-cut Fellows is a wonderful! It is almost silent, easy to use and the cuttings look like little dots in the bin. So far, it is a great buy for the price and I have come to trust the Fellows name for its reliably and product quality.

Of course shredders never actually shred the number of papers they advertise so I would never try to shove 20 sheets in the is thing at once but wow I’ve never had (or heard of) a micro shredder before and the bin holds a ton of paper. Way more than even a cross cut shredder. If you hate emptying the paper bin all the time then definitely get this one instead of a cross cut shredder. It turns the paper into tiny confetti so a lot more of it fits in the bin. It says not to shred staples, CDs or credit cards though which is a shame.

Spent al good dollar on this machine and there is a great deal of the shredded material that does not get in bag. Each time you empty the bag you will have to clean the bottom of the machine of debris.There is also a great deal of shredded material on the side of the bag. Disappointed about this I am considering to call and see what can be done to return it.
