The P-700 paper shredder from Fellowes helps guard important personal or business information from theft. This useful paper shredded comes with its own waste container and has a small opening in front so you can see when the basket is full, helping to prevent paper jams. A 9-inch entry width easily handles letter and legal sized paper, up to 9 sheets of which can be shredded in a single pass. With Fellowes' Powershred cutting system, the P-700 easily handles paper clips and staples without damaging the shredder, and should a problem occur, the reverse feature will simply spit the offending object back out.

The auto start/stop feature automatically shreds inserted paper and has a recommended daily use of 50-75 shreds. The power cable is 6 feet long, letting you place the basket wherever is convenient, and runs off of 120V-60Hz power supply. The P-700 weighs 7.5 pounds and measures 16 by 8.5 by 19.5 inches. The P-700 also comes backed with a one-year limited warranty on both parts and labor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Did the cheaper shredder break? Try this one., January 18, 2005

By	West End Girl "West End Girl" (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews

In my neighborhood, your garbage is examined by dumpster divers like CSI on a fresh crime scene. I don't think they all necessarily want your credit card statement, BUT it is unnerving to watch all those credit card offers with your name on it go in the same sack as a bank statement. All you need to do is watch the same garbage can for a while and you get enough info - credit card numbers, old bank statement, mother's maiden name - to open a new account.
So I bought the cheapest shredder I could find -heck, I'm not Enron/the government/a tobacco company! I don't need the heavy duty stuff!

And it stunk. No power, no capacity and messy.

I bought this one and I'm thrilled. Relatively cheap, fast, built-in basket for waste and can go right through old bank statements. I think this is the right model for the adult who doesn't want to pay for a pro model, but just doesn't want someone charging crack on a fake Visa card.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK shredder, January 11, 2005

By	Ben Smith (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews

I've had this shredder for about 1 1/2 years now. It shreds ok, don't put more than 3 sheets in at 1 time. The cross shredding works, but seems to make the strips catch back into the roller at times. The unit will jam sometimes with 3 pages or less. For the price, I would look at other shredders in it's class before purchasing again.

3.0 out of 5 stars No replacement parts, July 30, 2005

By	bgator - See all my reviews

We've had this shredder ~1.5 yrs - light use (credit card offers, cc receipts, cards). It worked fine, but the largest nylon gear inside stripped. Replacement would be rediculously easy, but replacement parts are not available.

The shredder is fine, but I wouldn't purchase again for lack of service or replacement parts. I wager the gear that failed for me is 70% of all failures for this model.
