Product Description
Security, privacy, and recycling are just a few reasons for buying a shredder. Personal shredders, like the Fellowes Powershred 60, are ideal for the home or small office. You can shred confidential business and personal information, such as financial documents, old credit card and bank statements, and expired tax forms. By strip-shredding 12 sheets at a time through a top-loading feeder into its own durable plastic bin, the PS60 destroys old R&D files, designs, business plans, and board minutes, rendering them unreadable.
The Powershred 60 features automatic electronic start and stop for easy operation and a front basket capacity of 7.6 gallons. It withstands staples and paper clips without damage to the blades and can handle up to 900 sheets daily (Fellowes recommends a daily capacity of 450 sheets). The Fellowes Powershred 60 is compact, measuring 17 by 14 by 10 inches, and affordable, which makes it possible for any home or office to have the security that a shredder offers.

Paper Wads Up Beyond Shearing Wheels and Blocks Shredder
I have a Fellowes PS-60 powershredder at work, and it works great.I bought this PS60-2 Shredder and have had it at home for six months or so.I don't know why my experience has been so utterly different than the five others who have reported in, the only thing I can think of is that there is a manufacturing defect in mine...in any case, when shredding typical bills and other office paper items, the paper frequently wads up in a wide space just beyond the shears that then narrows to form the outlet...

Excellent Machine for Moderate Use
Based on the previous Amazon reviews, I bought one of these new through eBay for about $60.In a situation similar to a previous reviewer, I put my shredder through heavy use for several days with a large pile of accumulated papers, and can confirm the assessment that "it worked like a champ." In addition to paper, my shredding included several hundred cardboard VHS covers, numerous small magazines with staples, and a few credit cards. I don't find it at all noisy, and is somewhat quieter than some...

Keep in mind what you're getting
If you're expecting an industrial shredder, you'll be disappointed.This shredder is designed for personal/small office use and does a great job of it.It claims that it can handle up to 12 sheets of regular sized paper at once and it's about right on.I bought it for home use and don't expect to put it to too much use, but we had saved up a bit of paperwork that we wanted shredded so for the first day or two I really put it through its paces shredding probably close to a thousand sheets of paper.When...

The best for less ... but do some research.
for security of shredded documents, don't waste your money with the strip cuts shredders. Get a cross cut. This shredder handles 7 sheets in one pass, staples and all, with no problem. it comes with a waste basket. ... if you order it at ... a place that will give you a 110% price guarantee, AND a warranty, then it's a steal.Get the shredder oil too, this will keep it running at peak efficiency. Paper has dust; this gets into the motor and dulls the blades over time.Get a warranty if you are doing...

This is missing one thing
I owned a shredder before this and it was a cross cut shredder, and when I bought this one, I guess I didn't pay attention to the fact that it wasn't a crosscut shredder. I like the cross cut because the paper is shredded to the point where nothing can be recognized. Needless to say, thisdoes a good job, you just have to make sure that you put the documents in horizontally....
