This shredder is by far the best from fellowes that we have ever purchased. Although I wish we had gotten the C-120C which was the confetti shredder(but also costs more). The strip cut is fine for most applications, but tends to fill up the 13 gallon basket faster.

This has been a reliable workhorse for my office. Shreds 100s of pages a week and never any problems.

I wish I'd bought a decent shredder like this years ago instead of wasting all that money replacing those cheap ones you buy at Sam's. This shredder is quiet, strong, and quick with a good pile of paper at a time.
I'm very satisfied with it.

We've shredded dumpsters full of paper.

The paper full detector seems to go on sooner than necessary. We've stopped using plastic bags which seem to make the detector go on too soon.

Oil regularly!

I highly recommend this shredder. Unlike others out there it doesn't require any off time in between shredding, which is great if you're a busy office and have a lot of papers to shred on a daily basis. It is also relatively quiet and super fast! It can also shred a lot at one time. The only complaint I have with it is the sensor for the full bin is highly sensitive! It will say it's full when it's not then you have to open the drawer and push the paper down to keep going. It can get frustrating, but the pros definitely out-weigh that one little con!

I have had my Fellowes C-120 strip cut shredder for about a month and I love it. Fellowes Powershred C-120 18-20 sheet Strip Cut Shredder I find shredding documents to be a great stress reliever especially when the shredder works as well as this one does.

I've worked with several confetti cross-cut type shredders from various manufacturers and none last very long or can handler more than just a few sheets of paper at a time. They are slow, noisy, and create a mess when you have to empty the waste container. I think for the average user you probably don't really need a cross-cut shredder.

I've also worked with several strip cut shredders and they always seem more durable. They are faster, make a lot less noise, and it is easier to clean up any mess generated when you need to empty the machine. I have found that in general the Fellowes brand strip-shredders seem to perform the best.

The Fellowes Powershred C-120 is perfect for what I need. I have a small home office and shred about 150 sheets of paper every day. My shredder is powerful and seems to easily handle 20 pages of paper at a time. It is fast and quiet. I can shred paper and talk on the phone at the same time. It has a decent capacity waste container. It stands as tall as my desk surface. I anticipate that I will be using this machine for several years to come.

I would recommend this shredder if you need a larger shredder for a small office.

If you are tired of fighting with small office paper shredders, look no further. This Powershred lives up to its name as it easily handles 20 sheets at a time. I have never felt the need to baby it like other smaller shredders. It seems to be build very solidly and the slim design makes it easy to place in an office. The 9 1/2 inch opening allows us to feed reports printed in tractor feed paper. For the price and capabilities, this is a great value!

Great shredder. Works fast and quietly. It does not cross shred though, but that is probably why it shreds quickly.

Purchased for the small office I work at and have had no issues with this unit. Works great for our needs.

this shredder is nice and quiet. Just remember though, it is a strip cutter and not a cross cutter.
