Fellowes Powershred® PS80C-2 Shredder

The Bottom Line: There are other shredders that work well and aren't as temperamental as the Fellowes PS80C-2. Use one of them instead.

Review: I've never been one to feel like every personal document needs to be shredded, nor has shredding paper ever been a big part of my job. Thus I've not been more than a very casual user of paper shredders. This led me to erroneously believe that, give...

The Bottom Line: I recommend this shredder because of its large sheet capacity, expected durability and economy in the long run.

Review: After one of my friends had her identity stolen, I decided that my wish to have a shredder was not born out of paranoia, but dire reality. However, I didn t want a cheap POS strip-cut shredder that would break after a couple of months and still...

The Bottom Line: I do not recommend purchasing this product. No matter how much you baby the shredder, it does not last long.

Review: My office has this shredder for every day shredding of company and client documents. According to Fellowes this shredder can handle 10 sheets of paper at a time, with 50-100 passes per day (500-1000 pieces of paper, or 1-2 reams of 20# paper). To...

The Bottom Line: Don't waste your money, because this machine wastes your time!

Review: This machine existed in my office when I came here in January. My co-worker had never used it, other than for one or two pieces of paper at a time.

I shred often and have found this to be the worst machine I've ever used. Three or four...

The Bottom Line: The quality is lousy for the price. There has to be something better than this!

Review: We've had a Fellowes PS80C-2 for a couple of years and hardly used it. About a month ago, I finally decided to shred some documents from a deceased relative, and at first, the shredder worked okay. I won't accept anywhere near the advertised 10-page...

The Bottom Line: Some personnel in an office environment forget to remove staples and paper clips. This machine did not hold up to the occasional staple let alone those darn paper clips.

Review: In my opinion, this machine was purchased for our office without any input from our staff. Needless to say the machine was to small for our application. I was amazed it lasted this long. This seemed to be a great deal for an occasional use shredder...

The Bottom Line: I'd pick another brand.

Review: For normal office use, I'd pick another brand. Ours died after 1.4 years and I was informed that after the one year warranty period (5 yrs. on cutters), parts are no longer available. It's made to be disposable.

According to our office...

Review: We have this shredder in our office just for occasional shredding of confidential papers. Mostly we keep all papers here at work in storage and it?s a mess! But sometimes there are things they don?t want binded and stored, so off to the shredder I...

Review: This shredder rocks. it is bombproof in its mechanisms and i can't imagine being able to jam it. just shove in the whole envelope of junk mail and watch it disappear.

the confetti cut is the only way to go. why shred something that would...

Review: The PS80C-2 is the only shredder I have used thus far, but I can say that it must be among the worst available. This shredder is messy, temperamental, and frustrating. Every third time I use it, it jams. You can only shred two or three pages at a...
