Fellowes shredder

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2009
Review: I have recently bought one of these shredders from argos after growing concerns over identity theft. I thought it was a little bit expensive, but it was recommended to me.

I have had no problems with it so far. It has not overheated and I...

This is an excellent home shredder

Date of Review:  Sep 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: Truth, this shredder is actually a joy to own.
Review: We had a Royal shredder (you can lookup my review on that shredder here) that even thou it was still working, was just to big a pain to use. It jammed, it collected paper in the cutters and it was difficult to empty. Both my wife and I were tired of...

Fellowes DS-1 Shredder- When hiding those SECRET documents

Date of Review:  Sep 7, 2007
The Bottom Line: This is a good deal if you like to sort through the mail and get rid of half of it.
Review: We recently upgraded to the Fellowes DS-1 Shredder after I moved in with my fiancee. He is one who never throws things out. And I throw everything out, and that made him nervous. So now he shreds all the junk mail and anything else we don't need...

When Security Matters

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: Works for you, not against you. Excellent for home use.
Review: The Fellows DS-1, when compared to other shredders I have had over the years comes out on top. There are many shredders on the market that are two-piece units.

Two piece units are basically a shredder head that sits on the container in...

Beware this shredder

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2007
Review: Have used this unit for 18 months. 18 months of blissful shredding, filling the paper box, useful security feature with a magnetic gizmo that recognizes if anything but paper is present and auto shuts-off. While cleaning out our office and shredding...

Worked well for limited time

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2007
Review: Purchased unit about 18 months ago. Used the unit now-and-then, always followed the user guidelines: never overloaded or let unit overheat. Rarely shredded credit cards or paper clips.
Everything worked fine for about 18 months. Shredder simply...

Start shreddin'

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2007
The Bottom Line: An excellent choice for a home office or personal use.
Review: I have wanted to purchase a shredder for the longest time having been a victim of identity theft the past two years. I finally purchased the Fellowes DS-1 after doing some research online and have been very happy with the shredder so far.

Fellowes Powershred DS-1 shredder not reliable

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2008
Review: I have used the Fellowes Powershred DS-1 shredder at home for 16 months. It has never shown the red overheating light. No problems with paper jams. Now, suddenly it will no longer run in the forward shredding direction. Still runs fine in reverse...

Great While It Lasted

Date of Review:  Jan 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: Don't bother with this machine. It doesn't last long enough to even hassle getting it or disposing of it.
Review: I received this shredder on a Monday. It worked nicely, if not a bit noisily. I had one jam, but was able to get it cleared after working with it a while. On Friday, it wouldn't work. The green "go" light was lighted, it was turned on, but the motor...
