Stopped working after 6 months
I purchased this model for my home office from Staples on June 16, 2025, for $592.49 (this does not include tax). I decided to splurge on this shredder because I was tired of lame shredders breaking down within 12-18 months of use. This shredder does not perform well at all, never has. The automatic feeder only works for whole pieces of 8.5x11 paper. If you have mail, e...

Build quality issue
I picked up the product on July 29 2024. My only negative comment is that the pullout bucket into which the shredded paper falls has plastic push pins which hold together what appears to be the cardboard walls and floor of the container. These pins are coming apart requiring to be recompressed. I wouldn't expect that a product at this price point would come apart that...

Only flat 8.5x11 paper in tray
I was hoping to set into the tray all my receipts and mismatched sized papers - but no only flat 8.5x11 paper can go into the tray. Otherwise it jams - and doesn't unjam itself. Everything else must be fed through the regular manual slot on top. Also there are no wheels - so it cannot be moved from room to room.

Response from Staples :
Hi Shannon. We are sorry you are having issues with your shredder! As long as the receipts are sandwiched between letter size documents it should take them without issue or you can feed them through the manual feed. If you need further assistance please call customer support. We are here to help!

It shreds... I think the story with these machines is longevity and repair-ability. That's all TBD. Bret

Not strong enough for daily use.
This has never been able to shred the amount of copies it says it can. Now after only 6 months. we have to get a new shredder. Thankfully I purchased the protection plan and they are sending a new one. Hopefully this one lasts longer than 6 months. You can only use for 12 mins. then let it cool for 25 mins. We also followed directions able putting oil on blades each ti...

Great find
This is a great find for our office. It is quick and without that high pitching sound. The price is great and it makes shredding office files so easy.

Great Shredder...
This shredder works great. It's fast and fairly quiet. The only downside is that the top lid flies back when you open it.

Fantastic!
We have had it for about a month and so far so good! We love the convenience of the top loader when we have to shred multiple pages.

Great Purchase!
We recently purchased two of these shredders for our offices. So far they have worked beautifully for us! Set up was easy; they run fairly quietly. We especially love the fact that we can run large quantities of paper through hands-free. It saves time for us.

Pretty good
The auto feeder works well which was my main reason for ordering this model. It is very nice to hit the button and walk away from a stack of papers. The manual feeder can’t handle too many sheets at a time. I guess that is what the auto feed is for. The shredder is quite loud. It is best to start the auto feed and walk away so it is not so loud. It is a cross cut...

Fellowes AutoMax 150C Review
It is super quiet. I have not had more then 10 sheets at a time to shred yet so can't speak to multiple feed function. The normal feed is ok but is a little tricky.
