Well after doing some research on shredders this so far is a very nice shredder for the money....I had a good pile to shred and it went through it all pretty easy in a fast time... my xerox shredder went up over the weekend which was a good shredder also, but this Fellowes ps60 is better , its bigger, it handles more and it makes less noise...the strips it cuts are small enough for idenity theft protection and its power of med to heavy duty is enough to handle most jobs...

Bottom line its a nice shredder for the money....

This shredder works great and it is much quicker and quieter than my previous shredder, and has no problem with what I have fed it so far. I haven't taxed it too much, and it can handle 5 sheets like it was 1. I have so far shredded one credit card and that was fine.

Like all shredders, it is best to keep the bin clean or compacted once it gets near the top.

No complaints (so far--owned it since Feb 06)

I've had this shredder about a month and have used it quite a bit shredding old documents (I've emptied the basket about a dozen times). The shredder appears to be pretty much everything that I thought it would be compared to the cheap shredders I've had in the past. It's certainly more substantial and quieter. My only regret is that I didn't spend a extra $20 for the similar Fellowes model that confetti cuts instead of the strip cut on this model. The basket fills up very fast with the large strip cuts made by this machine and I believe that a confetti cut machine would allow more paper to be shredded before the basket needs to be emptied. The trade off between the strip cut and confetti cut machines, as I understand, is that the confetti machines require a shredding oil to be used occasionally and the strip cut machines don't.

Fellowes Powershred PS-60 Shredder (3860102) was an excellent buy for an excellent product. VERY quiet and shredder motor seems quite powerful and capable. Very happy with price and quality.

I come from a big company environment where we had big shredders and people to do the shredding. After retirement, I bought two different "big box" office supply branded shredders. They were always jammed. In frustration, while trying to clean out years of personal information, I carried them to the garbage swearing and vowing never to buy cheap equipment again. (Actually they weren't inexpensive, just cheaply built.)
The next day I read reviews shopped around and bought the PS-60. It is a monster! I thought it performed as well as my old office shredders, it hardly choked. I did jam it with 14 sheets of heavy paper, but I can feed 10 sheets at a time until the bin is full and never jam it. Highly recommend.

This unit is great for a home office. It's more quiet than my last one and shreds stapled documents with ease. The handle at the top makes it easy to empty the waste basket below.

This shredder runs so smoothly & is so much QUIETER than any other one I've experienced. GREAT delivery time from seller & I am very satisfied!

This shredder jams repeatedly. It's the second Fellows shredder that I have had over the years and they both jammed a lot.

This is a most wonderful product. We brought two shredders previously and stopped working for being use a few times. This shredder worth to pay a little more and knowing is dependable. We had shredded more than 20 years paperwork due to down sizing. I am sure this one will help us to go for many miles longer. Highly, highly recommanded. A very very happy owner of this product.

Excellent shredder for home use. It does, in fact, shred 8 papers at one time.
