This shredder replaced a Fellows Shredder that we had for many years. After a while the teeth started to break, causing a paper jam. We are extremely satisfied wtih our new shredder. I would highly recommend this model. I like the feature that tells you the bag is full, and also if you put your hand over the opening it will not work. Super great shredder!

I have owned several shreaders but none of them have performed with the reliability that my PS-79Ci has. It has never jammed or become sluggish. It provides an easy access to dump the cuttings and does not create the mess of dropping cuttings all over the floor when you empty the basket. This was a great purchase as the Fellows unit has already out lasted two other shreaders.

I love this shredder. It never jams! The only reason I rate this shredder at 4 stars instead of 5 is that it is annoying that a business envelope will not fit through the shredder slot horizontally. I am sure this won't bother most people, but I just wish the slot was long enough for a business envelope.

I finally broke my current Fellowes DM8C shredder that only lasted through 8 years of abuse! Fed more then it's rated number of pages and jammed it often. I put stuff in it that didn't need to fed into a non-commercial shredder. Wasn't aware of need to oil, so it NEVER was oiled. I will treat my new 79ci with more respect and I expect to it will outlast me. I can live with the smaller chad bin considering the new features like safety, anti-jam, and the casters are a real plus.

I purchased this machine for shredding paper to use as bedding in a llama operation. It is very time consuming to use this machine. After about 4 bins of shredded paper, I have to wait for it to cool down. I shred paper every 2 weeks, and it takes me a good 3 days to get the volume I need shredded. Not what I was hoping for or wanting. For a "desk job" person, this machine would be great for anyone wanting to have a machine that can produce volume of shredded paper, this is not it. It was probably my fault, I should have spent mega bucks and bought a large commercial shredded in the beginning, but this machine said commercial use. My bad and their bad - not enough information for my needs. Now, I have to spend mega bucks to get what I want and need.

I was surprised how quiet this shredded real is. I go through stages when I clean out files. So far this just keeps going without a problem the only thing that gets to be annoying is the basket fills quickly and it stops so you have to open it and push the waste down. I do love it and would recommend it to everyone

I work in a tax preparation office serving nearly 1000 clients. Security of client records and especially destruction of the same is of vital importance. Because I am basically an impatience person and like most am usually rushed, I found this shreader prevents jams by warning and limiting the overloading of doccuments. Jams not only frustrating but time consumming as well. Should the necessity arrise to replace the shreader my choice is already made. And to top off the stated feature the shreader operates nearly soundlessly, important in a crouded office.

I have used Fellows products for years and years and always been more than happy, until I got the 79ci. This is the worst shredder I have ever owned. - The capacity sensors are based on thickness, so wrinkled single sheets cause the sensor to stop shredding - not torque. It will work fine for one junk mail envelope but not another. I must constantly babysit the work and use the "force shred" option to get the jobs done. I really need to take the thing apart and disable the thickness sensor.

Decided to go with a better name brand and happy I did! love the features on this product especially the power saver. Caught up with all our shredding with no problems. Love the fact I was given instructions on how to oil the product with a small bottle included.

Purchased this shredder to safely dispose of several boxes of old client tax returns. It really made this lingering job go quite fast with its ability to shred several page at a time and it never once jammed. It's quite operation was a pleasant surprise compared to my old shredder. What would have taken at least a week with my old shredder was accomplished over two days. The cross cut feature definitely ensured that none of the client's information could be used for identity theft.
