My recent purchase of a PS-79Ci resulted from the failure of a 10-year old Fellowes shredder that has been a work horse for daily use in a home office. The PS-79Ci is very quiet compared to the older model and never jams. It has an easy to remove waste bin which makes weekly removal to the trash very simple. I strongly recommend this model for a home office environment.

This shredder is everything it's been written up to be. As you can probably tell, I love it. Yes it's quiet, even when it's grinding up a CD or an expired credit card. It has never jammed and has no problem taking the maximum amount of paper over and over again. It is a quality machine built solid and should last a long time. I truly cannot think of anything I dislike about this shredder. It is well worth the money.

I upgraded to this machine after years of using a very small, single-sheet shredder. I could have shopped more carefully. This machine is at much larger and very heavy. Operation is quiet, but there is a loud hum whenever the machine is turned on. It does make small bits very efficiently. My main irritation is the mess. Shredded paper bits miss the waste basket and cling to the bottom and sides of the inner compartment so that taking out the waste basket involves picking up many tiny bits of paper that fall to the floor. Since I take the shredded paper to the compost often, this is a real inconvenience.

I initially bought a Fellowes Powershred 79Ci almost 9 years ago. I use it everyday for work and personal papers. Hence, it has had a considerable amount of use. When the reverse no longer worked, I searched to see if there was a shredder I might like better, but my research brought me back to buying this shredder again. I am delighted to find the current 79Ci shreds up to 16 pages at a time, whereas my old 79Ci shredded 13 pages at a time.

I did alot of research before purchasing the PS-79Ci Shredder. It is amazing how many people hate the shredder they own. The PS-79Ci had a real fan club. I can see why. It is quiet, jam free, nice to look at and shreds large amounts of paper at a time without any problems at all. I would happily suggest this shredder for home or small office use. It is a real gem among rocks.

We are extremely happy with this shredder!! It does what it says. It shreds very well, very industrious machine. It is also very quiet. It is nice to use it without waking up everyone in the house. We had 2 big bags of paperwork to shred, and they have been accumulating for about 3 years now. The old shredder can barely shred one sheet of paper. With the Fellowes PS-79C1, we were able to shred everything in less than one week, and only with less than 5 minutes per session. It is so nice to find something that works well.

I love this shreder. I have a tendency to break things. I broke our office shredder before this one. I jammed it several times until it just quit working. Then I was on the hunt for a shredder that was 100 percent jam proof. I found this one and it did not dissapoint. Anytime I put in too much paper a red light would appear to gently remind me that I have put in too much paper. I was able to shred all of the documents that have been piling up over the last year and it didn't take my entire day! I would reccomend this shredder to anyone with a small buisness. I absolutly love it and it has taken all of the frustration out of getting rid of documents.

This shredder is by far the best and quietest I have ever owned. This is my fourth and hopefully last for several years. I use it in my home office for security and it is fast and efficient. A cross cut design.which can handle paper, credit cards CD and Dvd discs and even staples.

I purchased this shredder to replace one I had owned for four years and was happy with. I work in an industry that demands a lot of shredding. I researched before purchasing this one. This is my first "Fellowes" Shredder. I must say I am 'VERY HAPPY' with it. It allows me to shred many pages at one time thus saving me time. It is also pretty quiet....unlike my last shredder. My only disappointment if you can call it that is the capacity. I find I have to empty it a lot more than my last one. But other than that, I would highly recommend this shredder to others.

We had a DM12ct previously which was at least 8 years which performed amazingly well. It was powerful, and well built. This shredder is just as well built, has a great energy saving feature, and also is so amazingly quiet compared to the last one. The feed is slightly slower and it has a thickness sensor to prevent you from putting in too many sheets at one time. (With the old shredder, you wouldn't know it was going to jam until you had already put the paper in and it was feeding.) Overall a solid performer and with the Fellowes brand, you can't go wrong.
