No Endurance
The shredder overheats after shredding papers that amount to about half of the storage bin! Very frustrating to have to wait until the unit cools down to start using again.
I am planning on returning the product to the store if I can manage to get a refund without the box!

great light-duty shredder
just got my shredder out of the box & tested it out....
it performs just as advertized !
no jams at max capacity (only slows down a bit)
not any noisier than the old model it replaced [not that I expected it to be whisper quiet]

The shredder did a good job shredding credit cards as well as paper. The safety features on the shredder are good and the locking mechanism minimizes the chances of accidents. Overall a good little work horse.

Gets the Job Done
Fair warning: this shredder is not made for big shredding jobs. Nor does it do CDs. Other than those two negatives, this shredder is worth its weight. My advice: don't buy it when you're trying to prepare for a move. It's not meant to be used for those big jobs. But it will get the job done.

Mediocre shredder but Fellowes customers service is tops!
This is my second of these shredders, bought again after changing countries/voltages. I got the same one because it "did the job", not necessarily because it impresses; * bad points - it can't handle much at a time, and shuts off after a few minutes * good points - after checking a pretty good troubleshooting page I still needed advice on getting the shredder unjammed (was running only backwards), and was through to a knowledgeable rep in 2mins - problem solved. So, don't expect the greatest performance but it does the job and they offer great support. PS. if only running backward, unplug and fish the little white plastic sensor back from the shredder jaws (it sometimes gets stuck in "down" position)

shred it good
Feels and looks heavy duty, but small enough to be out of the way. Handled 5 sheets without much slowdown, ate up the credit cards and staples had no effect. Not sure how many staples it would take to dull it, probably won't find out, but none the less nice to know it can handle them.

The crosscuts became less and less each day of use. Now I must stop using the shredder until I get oil. Maybe then it will work better again. I had been using only 1 or 2 sheets at a time, At four sheets it jammed.

Good basic purchase
This is a reliable basic shredder. It does not have great sheet capacity but has the sound and performance of a heavy-duty shredder.
I haven't tried credit cards, staples and CD's so cannot comment on this aspect.
It is small, which can be either an asset or liability. It doesn't take up much space so fits easily into a home office. On the other hand, it does not hold very much shredded paper.
All in all, a good choice for a small home office or private use.

The latest problem is that i have a lot of paper shreds jammed in the in the insertion part just above the shredder head. It is only working in reverse mod now, it looks like I have to unscrew it and clean manually? any help would be much appreciated.

First Day Review
This small shredder is good for an individual who wants to securely shred personal identifiable information, but not for severe duty. It will comfortably shred a couple of pages at a time if fed carefully, but don't feed it so that the paper folds over itself. It will handle as much as 6 sheets of regular-weight copier paper, but I wouldn't want to try 7. Time will tell for durability, but I'm happy to have it for now. I like the safety lock which is easy to understand for adults, but difficult for kids.

Good, solid shredder for light everyday usage. The bin is small enough to fit on a desk yet large enough to hold the shreds. Solid design and 3 years of warranty on the blades make it a great unit to have long-term; cross-cut feature is wonderful for security. Overall, a nice little machine that won't break the budget. Recommend!!

Perfect for Home
This shredder is perfect for home use. I had a large backlog of shredding before I bought it, and it handled the job well. I followed the instructions and shredded for 3 minutes which doesn't sound like much, but you can shred quite a bit in that amount of time. Then I'd let it rest, and every time I went by the desk I'd shred some more until I finished my backlog. The shredder doesn't take up a lot of room, so I can keep it handy on my desk. I also don't have to worry about removing staples. An excellent buy for the money!

Fellowes P-35C Shredder
We have had this one for few years. Only on light duty. Kept lubricated. No heavy duty work like staples, credit cards, DVDs. It stopped feeding on "auto" but would still reverse. The "nylon" housing that holds the shredder blades has broken and is unrepairable. OK....it is a cheap shredder but for it to fail in the way is unacceptable in my view.

Great shredder
The P-35C cross-cut shredder is the best shredder I have boaught so far. It is not quite a loud as the last one I had which is a huge plus. I also like that it doesn't stop immediately after the last page goes through, it keeps going for a couple of seconds, which helps the next paper catch. I also like the way it is setup for safety. I'm not too afraid that my 7 yr old will get her fingers in it (or me for that matter).

I have just purchased a P 35C shredder based on its looks and proposed abilities, but I feel it may not be substantial enough for use. It also looks like I am not able to register this product as I am not in the USA or Canada but England, which is part of the United Kingdom, currently in Europe, before it fails. I will give it a week and if it lasts that long maybe I was wrong.

Works well for shredding a few pieces of junk mail a day. It clearly states in the instruction manual that this shredder is not designed to shred more than 2 minutes continuous or it will get hot and shut off. This is not the shredder for you if you have years of records to shred but it works well for its designed purpose of junk mail every day. Would recommend it for light use.

Bought one yesterday, Used it to filled-bin capacity three times. Now it only works in reverse. It's been oiled etc. and no more than 5 sheets have been shredded at once. Going back to shop tomorrow. Poor piece of kit. I cannot recommend it. Will attempt to change it for another make. Certainly very unhappy with Fellowes. As its an Australian product, perhaps in the UK I should try to use it upside down.

Great So Far
Love the safety features and the auto-shutdown to make sure I don't burn out the motor. I would recommend this for anyone who needs to do periodic shredding of mail or personal papers, but not for mass usage. Since I had a lot to shred at first, it was slow going to keep it from overheating and it only can take 5 sheets at a time, but daily usage is a breeze. Tends to make a little mess when you take off the top to empty the bin, but not a ton. Definitely does what it says. I haven't had it long, but so far it's living up to expectations!

I actually downsized my shredder and regret it. This one jams constantly, fortunately I found the safety switch which allows me to continue operating it even when it jams.

I purchased this shredder after having another shredder for many years. I wish I would have read the review before purchasing as it seems I am experiencing the same problem that others have experienced - the shredder will go in reverse (barely) but not forward. I did call the company and they seem nice enough and will follow up. Let's see what happens. I cannot recommend this product yet but may change my mind.

I recently purchased this shredder to replace an old one that had failed. I bought this model because it had the highest shred piece ratio on display. The black basket makes it difficult to see how full the basket is. I had expected smaller pieces, considering it was a cross cut shredder, pieces are about 2-3". I would not purchase this model again.

Good shredder for limited office use
This shredder is made for personal use and limited office use to destroy any kind of personally identifiable information or and other sensitive documents. This particular machine would be suitable for a house or home office where children are around because of the many safety features it has. Draw backs of this machine are the small volume of paper shredding it can handle and also the time constraint on continuous shredding.

"Music" to My Ears
My new Fellowes shredder is a good quality product. The controls are easy to use, and it definitely has the look and feel of quality. It has a weight to it that will convince you it's not just cheap junk like so many others.
It will shred about anything you throw at it: credit cards, staples, lots of old paperwork. It feels like it could act as a wood chipper if you asked it to.
The only negative thing I have to say about this shredder is the amount of noise. It sounds something some sort of turbine sucking up a whole flock Canadian geese.
So as long as you have a basement, or a seperate, sound insulated room to shred in, then this shredder is for you. Or else your neighbors may start asking questions about your abuse of water-fowl.

Shredder
I have used other fellows products and have used the shredder before and found them very reliable. I am using this product for home use and it works great

Reliable Product
This is my second shredder in 15 years. My first shredder lasted 12 years before I jammed the blades. The P35C is a good, solid shredder for light everyday usage. The bin is small enough to fit on a desk. Solid design and good warranty on the blades make it a great unit to have long-term; cross-cut feature is wonderful for security. Overall, a nice little machine that won't break the budget. Recommend!! "

Facile d'utilisation et sécuritaire
Le produit est simple d'utilisation et vient avec des options de sécurité (barrer le bouton hors-fonction pour éviter les déclenchements accidentels) essentielles.
