I bought this shredder because I work at home and had about a 15-20k sheet backlog of sensitive documents to shred. They had been piling up, and my little home shredder could only shred 3 sheets at a time. This shredder plowed through my pile in just a few hours. I filled about 40 50-gallon bags in a weekend! The features are great: sheet load sensing makes sure you don't load too much; backs out if you do, doesn't jam; finger sensing to shut off if little finger get near the input slot; overheat sensor shuts down until cooled off avoiding damage due to heat; bin full indicator. Very robust! I purchased a factory reconditioned unit, and other than a few scuffs on the bin, it looks and acts brand new. I'm very happy with this purchase!

Product may be good but arrived damaged. Packing seems to be inferior for such heavy item and manufacturing seems too flimsy to accommodate weight of motor used in shredder mechanism. Suggest to purchase in store to elevate chance of concealed damage.

Bought to shred many years of financial backup and accummulated files. Works well after many loads of 42 gallon bags being filled. Not real noisyt. Have a smaller Fellows which we have used for over 10 years and is still doing well. Be sure to lubricate often to keep cutters oiled. You can use regular vegetable oil you cook with. Just a few drops after a couple of emptys of the basket. Overall I would give it four and one-half stars.

I only had to pay $107, shipping included for a somewhat brand new shredder. This thing is heavy duty! I shredded about 60 gallons of mostly light to medium cardboard in a couple days. This was the first time I've ever used a high end quality shredder. I didn't even bother reading the instructions. I kept it nicely oiled and emptied when the red light told me to and turned it off when it needed cooling down.

using this shredder in conjunction with a fujitsu scansnap ix500 i recently picked up, also a gem, my workspace has largely been de-cluttered and i feel significantly more at peace with my working life. no trouble with jams and i ran a lot of cardboard through it (though thicker cardboard needed to be torn a little to fit it into the grinder for the initial "catch," once "caught" it pulled the thick cardboard in and shredded without trouble--takes a little getting used to but once you get the trick it's super-easy.) runs approx. 30 mins. continuously before it needs a 40 min. cooldown, so i wouldn't recommend it as an "all day" machine like in a constant mailroom/trash operation, but great for my home office needs.
