" PowerHouse":
Needed to replace my worn out Royal 1000 & after scanning a few choices, settled on Fellowes SB-87Cs. Moderately priced for a heavy duty home/office shredder but the perfomance is top shelf. Strong motor to power thru 10/12 sheets at a time & make short order of a stack of waste. Generous basket w/ storage area for manual, bags & oil.

Unable to get replacement parts:
Great shredder UNTIL IT BROKE! I called customer service and they diagnosed the problem over the phone. Sold me a replacement gear set that will "fix the problem".

Great product:
After buying 3 inexpensive shredders and having them breakdown, I bit the bullet and spent a little more money for this fellows shredder and it was well worth it.

It came with oil to maintain the... more info
SO FAR SO GOOD. VERY IMPRESSED!!!!!:
It easily shreds 8 pieces at a time. Quiet operation compared to other models I've used. The size and the fact that this shredder easily fits under a counter or a desk is a plus. I've found the safety sensor a little tricky, you have to hold the sides of the paper when feeding it but this has not been a big deal. I'm really think we got a very good product for a very good price.
