I recently moved up to the next level in Fellowes shredders because I needed a more heavy-duty machine (for home use). With the 79ci, I have been able to tackle a backlog of paper with ease. The pull-out paper bin is a major improvement over the one that required the motor to be lifted off the bin for emptying. I highly recommend this shredder to anyone who has a tendency toward paper-clutter. It's also surprisingly quieter than my old machine.

This is a great shredder if you need a compact one -- and one that moves easily on wheels without tipping -- mine rolls on a tightly woven rug with no problem. The auto paper thickness measurement works well and clearly warns if you've loaded in too much. It's reasonably quiet and can also chew up credit cards and CDRs, though I haven't tried that yet. Nice that it comes with applicator bottle of shredder oil. I never knew these things needed to have the cutters oiled to keep them functioning at top capacity -- that's obviously why my very old Fellows eventually died -- but it makes perfect sense given what these machines do.

I have tried several shredders and this one is some what better then the others. I think it said 16 pages at a time, but 4 or 5 will stop it.. The lights are kind of useless because it stops when there's too many pages so why the lights. it stops constantly with just a few pages and over heats much too fast. Its a little better then the others i've tried but nothing to talk about.

We are really surprised with the quietness and durability of this shredder. It handles a sufficient quantity through the feeder, and processes it into very fine pieces making it easy to discard. It makes quick work of a large job. We highly recommend this product to the consumer.

We are a small Company, when I got here there were years of old paperwork that needed shredding and so far it's been great, no jamming, it has been as good as promised. I really appreciate the reviews because that's how I chose this shredder due to all the reviews. I read many many reviews of many shredders prior to choosing this one. Thanks everyone.

This is my first "serious" shredder. I've only had the wastebasket-top ones before, and they always gave me trouble and were messy to empty. This one is well-made, strong, and durable. It's amazingly quiet, and if you follow the directions, it will not jam. Easy to empty as well. Great product!

I'm so pleased with this shredder! My boyfriend and I just finished shredding hundreds of papers that we've been needing to dispose of for over a year!! No problems with the shredder at all! Throughout the full shredding process, there was not one point at which it jammed. No other shredder that I've had from other companies compares to this superior shredder! It's also nice having a quiet shredder that lights up to tell you when the bin is full. We definitely could not have asked for a better shredder!

I am now the proud owner of my 2nd Powershred 79Ci. The first one we have owned for approximately 7 years. It was getting a bit tired, but is now in my husbands shop for his use. The new one is in my office! YEAH. This product does everything it says it will do. I have shred everything from single sheets to credit cards, to CDs with no problem. My only con is the drawer is a bit tricky to lock into place. Other than that it is perfect in everyway. LOVE IT! The Fellowes company is wonderful at answering questions and giving support if needed. They will continue to have our business.

My previous non-Fellowes shredder was nothing but frustration with constant jamming, My 79Ci is fantastic quickly shredding papers and the 14 page limit is high enough so that I don't have to split most of what I shred. My only complaint is that I thought the casters were hard to press in. I want to send one to my mother but I don't think she is strong enough to press them in to where they are properly seated.

I find my PS-78Ci one of the best purchases I have made for my busy office. I am in the School environment and handle a lot of very coincidental teacher/student information, I needed a fast dependable shredder and have found it! I will recommend this machine to my co-workers and friends. Also plan on purchasing one for my home.
