Great Compact Crosscut Shredder
My old shredder died the other day and I was looking for a replacement. I run a small insurance office and deal with a lot of sensitive personal info, thus a way to shred sensitive and personal info is a must. This is a good looking, easy to assemble, and very capable shredder. I like that it is mounted on rollers, and they lock as well, which is a plus. The bin pulls o...

Don't buy!
Horrible machine. Worked great about 6 times. After that, nothing. Nothing is jammed and yet blades won't move. There is power to machine, but that's about it.

So far, so good. But I haven't really used it all that much. I've only shredded about 60 pages of paper. One thing that I would say is that the part of the unit that is under the heavier shredder seems to be very flimsy, and you have to be very careful when taking out the shredded paper and putting everything back together.

Excellent Product
I bought this to replace previous Fellowes Shredder, of similar size, which finally gave up after 15 years plus of first rate service. My immediate experience of this "12-C" is that it will give the same, if not better, long-term service.

I returned it because it was too much work to put together and was cheaply made. Very disappointed.

Working well...so far!
Just got my shredder yesterday to replace another brand shredder. Chose Fellowes because of their credibility in the business sector. I am retired now but used their products previously. So far I shredded about 200 pieces of paper. It took about 10-15 minutes give or take.. I was hesitant to try doing 12 pages at a time because when I did 8 pages it started to kind of d...

Flimsy base, hard to set up
Much flimsier thin plastic base and pull out bin. Very difficult to snap the top onto the base (badly cut my finger and needed to return to store to have them snap the top on the base. Now seems to work OK but have only done a trial shred.

Great Shredder for Home Office
I just purchased the shredder and it's performance exceeds my expectations. I also like the smaller width as it fits perfectly in the small office space. Its construction appears to be solid & there are safety features, so I would recommend this product.

Purchase a Fellowes Shredder at Staples
Visited Staples store a few days ago searching for a Fellowes Paper Shredder. Service in Staples was excellent. The manager brought one for us to see and test. We bought the shredder and also oil. We are really pleased with the workmanship and ease of use. If one is looking for a shredder to shred documents, shop for Fellowes brand at Staples.
