Works well for home office. Only significant improvements would be narrower shredded strips and some means of preventing paper shreds from getting lodged between the removable basket and the sides and bottom of the shredder body, which creates a bit of a mess when the basket is removed for disposal of the shreddings.

I just bought this and have only used it twice, but it seems to do the job. I must say, however, that the wheels were not easy to get on. It was difficult to force them into their holes. Also, there doesn't seem to be a way to secure the bags that catch the shredded paper.

This is the best Shredder I've ever purchased. It is a perfect shredder for home office use. Very Quit while shredding and has a large collection basket. I would not only recommend this Shredder, I would purchase it all over again. This shredder would be a bargain at twice the price!

I am amazed by the quietness of this product! I have used Fellowes for years and have loved the product, the predecessor to this one is a decade or so older and quite loud compared to this model. It also doesn't interfere with my computer display when I use it. I'll definitely consider upgrading the other one I have that I am going to return to my home. Thank you for continuing to surprise me with the quality!

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.

This shredder is a workhorse. It gets a lot of use, and, in spite of it, performs very quietly. Should my hand be close to the paper feed, it shuts off automatically, a safety feature I really appreciate. The wheels make it very maneuverable, and they slide easily, so no great effort is required to push it. I couldn't be happier with my shredder!! Jorge G. Finlay

New shredder arrived today. Much anticipated. Bin open light stayed on with bin in. Determined bin switch activated by plastic "blade" molded onto bin. It was, of course, broken off so no matter what you did, the bin switch never was able to be "closed". So, the new machine is basically a brick. Waste of money. Poor design.

Sooooo much more quiet than my last shredder!! Smooth operation. Love the "safe sense" feature. My old machine always made me secretly fear I might shred my fingers if I didn't pay attention. :) The bin is easy to empty. It just slides out and slides back in. My old shredder required I lift off the heavy top and inevitably spill shreddings attached to the blade all over the floor. If all that isn't enough, it's handsome too. Matches the rest of my desk appliances.

I've only used this product for less than a month, but during this usage I've found this product to be as adverised: a high quality and user friendly device; in addition to being pleasing to the eye. Therefore, I'm Highly satisfied with this purchase and recommend it strongly to anyone anticipating need for a reliable shredder.

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.
