Digital camera reviews of Fellowes P-57Cs, 8 Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder 3205701
Digital camera Review: Didn't work out of the box - returned
Summary: 1 Stars
I guess I just got a bad one but was very disappointed that it did not work. I had to send it back which is always a pain. The product felt kinda cheap so I decided to go with another brand of shredder.Digital camera Review: Died after 7 minutes
Summary: 1 Stars
This died on me after about 7 minutes of shredding the very first time. I didn't put too many sheets through at once. There were supposed to be some safeguards that would keep it from overheating, but they apparently didn't work. I read the instructions, reset it, unplugged & plugged it back in, waited overnight, but nothing could get it to start working again. Shipped back to Amazon...Digital camera Review: Dimensions Incorrect
Summary: 3 Stars
I had a tight space to put this so the dimensions were important to me. Instead of 12 X 12 X 16 shown on the web page the actual dimensions are 10.5'' deep X 15'' wide X 16" high. The cord is rather short: about 4-5 feet and has a 3 prong plug which meant I had to find a new place to plug it in. The top doesn't fit easily into the basket so it will be less convenient to empty than my old shredder. It creates shreds about 1/8" wide by about 2" long which is much smaller that my old shredder. It's shreds fairly fast and seems sturdy; so I'm still happy to have purchased it.Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I was disappointed with this shredder. It did not turn the sheets into confetti. It is only one step above the old strip shredders. I gave it away, and went to Staples and purchased a shredder that cut the sheets into confetti. The cost was only a few dollars more. If I sent it back, I would have had to pay the shipping. (both way, because shipping to me was free) I would have net of $20.00 refund.Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
I chose this item because it was a Consumer's Reports best buy. It is supposed to shred 8 sheets at a time, but will jam with 2 or 3 sheets if they don't go through straight. It can't be run more than 5-7 minutes at a time. It will over heat and cut off if run longer. It requires expensive oil. In addition, it is very difficult to get the shredder head just right on the basket and it won't run unless it's in perfect position. It also is not to be used with self-adhesive labels such as those on charity solicitations. It does have a safety feature that will cut it off if a hand comes too close to the intake slot. Over all, while it does shred safely, I am disappointed in the limitations of this shredder.
