Just got this 99Ci to replace a 15 year old low grade/snail speed over a waste basket shredder. Have a lot of paper to shred and a local shredding company wants 10 moola for each shopping bag full, I figured I'll shred myself and get something out of it in the end.
I was debating between this model and the AmazonBasics 24-Sheet Cross-Cut, finally decided on this, mainly due to the 100% Jam Proof, SafeSense, 10 FPM speed (no speed info on the AmazonBasics) and the larger 9 gallon bin features, plus it just looks more well built with better features that the AmazonBasics.
Pros
- Well built, feels solid for its price range.
- The casters were easy to install by myself (this is a man's job)
- Instructions were clear and easy to understand (this is also a man's job)
- The bin slides in and out easily.
- The capacity indicator is pretty cool, handy if trying to insert too many pages, which prevents jamming.
- The SafeSense feature, good for safety, plus if you keep your hand on there for more than 3 seconds, the machine actually turns off completely.
- First tested with 20 pages of 20lb copy paper, it was too thick and the capacity indicator was in the red, shredding would not even start, until I got down to 18 pages, then shredding went through without any problems.
- My first real batch of shredding completely filled a 12"x12"x8" box, lots of old invoices and statements, took about 25-30 minutes, almost ran it continuously. The shredder finally overloaded right when I finished, went into cool down mode, but I noticed that the overload red light went off about 15-20 minutes later, but the motor felt pretty warm still. I have many more of those boxes of paper to go.
- Within the 25-30 minutes of shredding, only one jam due to too many pages, hit the reverse button to back it out a little, then forward button to finish shredding it.
- When shredding lots of pages, you can tell that the sound of the motor is stressing, but just a little though, still pretty quiet and will shred the 18 pages quickly, does not really slow down much at all.
- 10 feet per minute seems pretty fast for this level of shredder, compared to my old snail shredder.
- Junk mail: I luv it that I can just throw the average junk mail (unopened) right into the shredder.
- Did try to insert stacks of paper in crooked, so that it'd fold during shredding, but it never got jammed once.
Minor Cons
- Even with a 9 gallon bin, because the shredded paper is pretty fluffed, it gets full pretty quick, even though the paper gets distributed in the bin pretty evenly by itself. Within the 25-30 minutes, I filled two bins and had to pad down the paper around 4 times per bin and oiled the blade at least twice per bin. If you are using a bag to hold the paper and you pad down the paper as much as possible, when you pull the bag out, the inside part of the bin window have cornered edges, which will rip the bag, but of course this will most likely not happen if you do not pad down the paper.
- You have to insert the paper about 2-3 inches into the slot before it'll start shredding, but you'll get used to it quickly.
Miscellaneous
- Instructions state that it should be turned off when done shredding, not a big deal with a simple push of the on/off button.
- Since the bin gets filled pretty quick and you are supposed to oil the blade with every emptying of the bin, make sure you get yourself a nice big bottle of shredder oil, or vegetable oil (non aerosol) and get an applicator with a long nozzle.
- This model does have the Energy Savings Feature, it's not stated on Amazon, but it's on the manufacturer's site.
Conclusion
- As long as it last for years to come, am very happy with the purchase. I believe I read about a plastic gear that was used in the previous model SB-99Ci, hopefully the issue with that is now fixed with this current model.
- Now that I have a much better shredder, shredding is "ALMOST" fun.
BTW: I'm just kidding with the being a man's job comments, I believe in complete equality. You go girl!
>> UPDATE 1/21/2015
Just out of curiosity, I just had to find some DVDs to shred, which I found about 10, threw each one into the shredder, one after another, no problems at all, it was actually fun and enjoyable, at least this first time.
I was also curious about the shredding oil, so I called Fellowes to get more info, here is what it comes down to:
- Any vegetable oil will work.
- Typically, one found at super markets will have a smell to it and one found at office stores will not. The ones with the smell is for cooking, the only difference is that it has a smell, but both work the same. I prefer no smell, so I guess I'll have to pay a little more for that one.
- The manual suggest that every time the bin indicator lights up that it's full(without padding down the shredded material), you should squirt some shredding oil on the blades. But, if you want to pad down the shredded material every so long, to prolong when it is actually completely full, so that when the bin is finally truly full even by padding down the shredded material, you can then squirt some shredding oil on the blades, so that you do not have to oil it as often.
I luv this shredder, so far.
I have shredded up to 12 sheets of paper at one time (shredder works a little harder but still smoothly shreds), a couple of credit cards and approximately 15 CD/DVD disks. The operation with paper and credit cards is surprisingly quiet. You could probably shred with someone sleeping in the next room and not wake them. The noise level (dB) is probably doubled when shredding a computer disk, but it still is quieter than any other shredder I've worked with.
One time the shredding process stopped with paper still sticking up above the shredder. I had a pair of 8-10 bank checks, side by side, so that a total of 16-20 total checks were being shredded at one time. I thought that since the checks took only a fraction of the available space for feeding in paper that I could shred two stacks at one time. Well, the shredder stopped. I pressed the reverse button for a couple of seconds, then the forward button until all the checks were gobbled up. No further misfires since then, even doing the same thing again with checks.
Everything functions as Fellowes states. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a small bottle of oil and several clear waste bags. The bags work great. The operating manual is brief but answers some essential questions like what to do with shredding malfunctions, what not to shred, how long to shred and maintenance. While Fellowes tells you when to oil (at every waste bag exchange), Fellowes could have detailed exactly how to use their oil. Hopefully Fellowes technical support will be helpful when a question arises.
Shredded material size is as stated and is the same for paper as well as computer discs and credit cards. There are units with more finely shredded material, and there are many units that do not shred as small. A motivated thief with patience and plenty of time could reconstruct most any retail shredder's output. That said, a thief would most likely dumpster dive for someone else's unshredded documents before sifting through your well shredded ones. Overall, I feel reasonably comfortable with the level of security of the shredded material with this unit.
The construction and design appear to be of excellent quality with appropriate ruggedness. There is no bowing or undue flexibility of the frame when the drawer is out as has been commented on with the Fellowes Powershred PS-77Cs Shredder. The castors are resonably medium duty and can lock down to keep the unit from rolling away. The shredder without the castors sits flat and stable.
Would be nice to know about the quality of the internal parts. I have read that some machines use plastic toothed gears which have higher/earlier failure rates than metal ones. At least this shredder has a two year warranty for the entire unit, which is twice many competing machines.
Overall, the PS-79Ci shredder is an excellent unit, working exactly as advertised. The Fellowes website has a nice multimedia presentation on the operations of this unit, including the noise level. I haven't had this unit for very long but I am extremely pleased so far with its performance and fit and finish. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a light to medium duty shredder for home or home-office, especially if they want a longer warranty, low noise operation, very good build quality and plenty of whistles and bells that actually are useful and work.
