Digital camera reviews of Fellowes Shredder Oil, 12 oz. Bottle with Extension Nozzle (35250)Digital camera Review: Fellowes Shredders have safety problems with Auto Feed Sensors Summary: 3 Stars
I have owned one other Fellows shredder I bought at Costco. The shredder shred paper just fine and as advertised, but the Auto Feed Sensor malfunctioned and quit working entirely.
At first on my older model, it was possible to clean the sensor following Fellows instructions, Q-tip with rubbing alcohol, but it finally just stopped working all together, an electronic failure in the circuitry is my best guess.
I purchased this newer Fellowes Power Shredder because I feel having a non-working safety sensor is bad for kid and pets. But only after about 1-month of occasional shredding the sensor started getting flakey and completely stopped working. I noticed the shredder would turn itself on when I would turn on my microwave which shares a power strip with it which I thought was very strange. I don't have electrical problems in my home and my best guess is that these Fellowes Auto Feed Sensors are not designed well at all as many, many people complain about them breaking.
Yes cleaning them does work...for a while but they have a very nasty habit of just failing after some time, but with the Fellows Power Shredder it just broke, cleaning made not difference.
Mine is new enough I could return it under warranty for a replacement, BUT having to pack it up an pay for shipping the heavy item is just not work the hassle.
Fellows shredder from my experience are solid well working machines with the exception that the buyer should be aware of this safety issue and expect them to become MANUAL type shredders sooner or later.

Digital camera Review: Fellows Lubricant Rewiew Summary: 5 Stars
This product works very well. I would not have bought this if I knew it was just vegtable oil. I will reuse the bottle fill with standard vegtable oil.
Digital camera Review: Fellows Powershred Lube Summary: 4 Stars
I have previously just used 3-in-1 oil. This seems to work much better. I also purchased a Fellows Shredder and am impressed with it, although it does work very hard to shred 6-8 at a time as advertised.

Fellowes Powershred Lubricant works very well. Once I used it I noticed the blades cut much better.
