"This quiet, efficient shredder frees me from concern about my confidential papers. The rice size pieces it produces can never be reconfigured. I no longer have to think about keeping my private matters private. It was recommended by my lawyer son who is an expert shopper. Once again, he was correct."

"I love the idea of shredding my personal documents (basically anything with my name, address or receipts). So I bought a Fellowes shredder at Costco for ~80USD about 5 years ago. In the last 5 years this shredder has taken everything I have given it without any problems. My only complaints were that it was noisy, a bit messy, it jammed when I put too much in it, the shred size pieces were bigger than I would like and I never felt comfortable about letting my kids use it because their fingers were smaller than the opening to the cutter.
Finally I decided to upgrade. First I gave my (still working) shredder to my neighbor then I went to my local Fry's and bought the MS-460Ci 100% Jam Proof Micro-Cut Shredder. I looked at all of the shredders on display and this one had the feature that I was looking for. To me the most important feature was the micro-cut. I have heard a story (maybe an urban legend) about people using crystal meth addicts to reassemble shredded documents for identify theft so I wanted something like micro-cut that would make reassembly practically impossible. This unit had the micro-cut and looked like it was a better unit than the one I had just given away. When I saw how expensive it was I went back and looked at the cheaper units but they didn't have the micro-cut. So I decided to buy it and then return it if it didn't meet my needs or I felt after using it that it wasn't worth it. While I didn't do any research before making my purchase I felt confident going with another Fellowes product after seeing how well my previous shredder held up.
When cleaning out prior year cc bills/bank statements/insurance statements etc.. I put them aside until I have the free time necessary to shred them. Shredding these documents took a lot of time due to speed and capacity of my previous shredder. So the first job for my new shredder was to wade through about a ream of old bills & statements. I was impressed at how well/fast this new shredder went through the stack. This shredder is much quieter, shreds the paper to the size of a grain of rice, won't let you overfeed the cutter, won't run when fingers are touching the feed area, has an inch or so gap between the top of the feed slot and the cutter(much safer than my old one) and shreds faster as well. Due to the reduced size of the shredded paper I think I can get a lot more paper in the same size bag without having to continually open the bin and push the shreds down. The CD shredder has it's own collection tray which is great for keeping CD pieces separate from the shredded paper.
The only thing that could use some improvement is with feeding single cash register/charge card/gas pump receipts. Since these receipts are so thin and small I have to feed them through with a stiffer piece of paper for the auto on/off to shred them. This is a very minor inconvenience and I know I could just drop them in and push the manual forward button.
At almost 4 times the cost of my original shredder this one is at least 10 times better. My only regret is that I waited so long to get it. This is the shredder I needed/wanted right from the start. It just took me a couple of years to realize it. While I use it at home I think it would do a great job in a small office as well.
I have only had the shredder for about a month so I can't say how well it will last but I expect this to be the last shredder I will ever buy."

"Shredder works fine, quiet.
No problems.
Its saftey features will truly let people know about getting hand too close, too man sheets at a time. Really like that.
This is the reason why in the past we have had broken shredders.
I only think the pages that can be shredded at one time are overstated in book. 8 pages sends the light all the way up.
In healthcare, everything is a privacy issue. We do a whole lot of shredding."

"I bought this to replace an aging Fellowes shredder for more capacity and security. It came through with flying colors in both categories. The ability to shred credity cards and CD/DVDs is an added plus. It cost more than my last one but it does so much more. The only thing it will not do that my old one could is to shred address labels (self adhesive) that come in the mail. Hopefully this will be the last shredder I will ever need."

"I recently purchased this shredder for the Library. We shred everyday, so this machine gets a real workout. It is easy to open to empty, and we keep it well oiled too. It's pretty quiet for a shredder. We really like the cross cut - cuts really small. It will also cut CDs. We feel confident that our confidential papers are well shredded. A very heavy duty machine. I replaced another Fellowes shredder that was over 10 years old with this new one. Durability, hard working and good value are all combined in this shredder."

"I bought this shredder to replace a single user shredder from Fellowes. At first I thought it was very expensive but after using it for several weeks, I have found that it's worth it becuase I know it will last me a long time. It's quieter than what I had before, so I am satisfied. It also is a step up in security for me because of the micro-cut level. I am enjoying all the safety feature especially the feature to prevent injury should hands get too close. This is a very important feature when young children can come in contact. It give me peace of mind that I am buying something that puts safety as one of it's priorities. It's like buying insurance."

"This shredder is excellent. It's dependable, safe and easy to use. Our office is very busy and we have the need to shred sensitive information. This machine handles our workload and is easy to maintain and empty. Many of the administrative offices in our campus have the fellowes shredders and are all extremely happy with their performance.
I would recommend this shredder for any one looking to invest in a good quality piece of equipment for their office or home."

"This is easily the best shredder I've owned. I placed it in my office at work, and it is so quiet that others can use it without interrupting my telephone calls. It has never jammed, even when I exceed the recommended # of sheets. It is the first shredder (yes, I have had older, cheaper Fellowes models) that I feel can last forever."
