Fabulous!
I purchased this shredder to handle 3 years of personal documents and bills that needed to be disposed of. I had about 30 pounds of paper to shred. This machine tore through it all quickly and easily without overheating or jamming!

Big Disappointment
This shredder worked well in the beginning, but after 6 months, constantly jammed and took forever to shred, had to cool down, release the jam, even if only putting in 3 sheets at a time.

Micro Shredder
Not even close to being an office shredder. Chad too large. Quiet and can take several pages at a time. Damn difficult to empty shredder waste into a kitchen (13 gal) garbage bag without spilling some.

Very temperamental. It does jam. It is quite.
The red light comes on before the ben is full or for another reason that is not apparent.

Hi Lauren. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that the unit is not working well! It sounds like the blades need to be oiled with shredder oil. Please call customer service if you are unsure how to do this and need some direction. We are here to assist you!

A superior shredder
This is by far one of the if not the best shredders I've worked with thus far. It's construction is the best for small office spaces. The quiet operation makes it ideal for shredding while working and/or attending meeting or webinars with minimal noise intrusion. It shreds credit cards, staples and CD's with ease. I highly recommend this shredder.

The best shredder for home and small office
ā€œI received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased reviewā€ I love it! I received this shredder about a week ago (I use it everyday) and it works great! I put a few papers first, but by the end of the day I was putting 11 sheets of paper and it shredded them fast without a problem. Jam-free. I ran a little bit over 5 minutes (without a problem) before t...

Totally destroys documents
This Shread Dee really meets my needs. I handle confidential documents and needed one that does the job. Thanks to the team at the Augusta store for recommending one that does does the job, within my budget.

High functioning Shredder
This shredder was my 2nd Fellowes unit and is an improvement over my previous one,
It can handle up to 12 sheets at a time and can run for 10 minutes before a cool down period is necessary. The casters are a nice touch. The only thing I would like to see is a bigger collection bin.
Highly recommended.

ARRIVED DEAD
We are calling you today after we take one last look at it to see if there's a piece of packing tape we missed or whatever. This is deader than a doornail. No power whatsoever at this moment. We'll be in touch later after we take our one last look today.
