plschneide Member Since: Dec 2007 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 12 Days	A power shred for the home Strengths: What I've liked best about the shredder is its ability to easily shred through larger numbers of papers than advertised and its self sensor that shuts down before it overheats. Weaknesses: My old shredder had a see through mesh area that made it easy to see when you needed to empty it. This one does not. Summary: I had a Fellowes shredder previously and really liked, but I basically wore it out through a little extra - um abuse. This one has been great so far and is a bit less noisy than I am used to which is quite nice. 100% of People (4/4) found this review helpful. Was this review helpful or unhelpful for you?

tanghonglai Member Since: Jun 2007 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 5 Days	Review for Fellowes Powershred P-57Cs Strengths: Inexpensive and quite fast. Weaknesses: It jams with 5 sheets of paper, the shredded paper is a little too long. Summary: This is a replacement of another shredder. Compared to my old shredder, the only thing I don't like is the fact that the shredded paper's a little too long. 100% of People (1/1) found this review helpful.

rh0443a Member Since: Mar 2007 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 2 Days	Good Shredder for this price Strengths: Quiet, Quick and Easy to operate (removal of shredded confetti and the reversal switch). Good price Weaknesses: Sensor is too sensetive. It overheats if shred a lot (longer than 7-8 mins). Summary: After a long and detailed research, I bought this shredder, which does a "confetti" cut. It works flawlessly. It is quiet, relatively quick and shreds relatively easy. Although, advertised 8 pages shred is a bit too much, 6-7 pages is OK. I am satisfied with the quality and the price.I would highly recommend this shredder. 100% of People (1/1) found this review helpful. Was this review helpful or unhelpful for you?

OtheliaVacura1950 Member Since: May 2008 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 3 Weeks	Fellowes Paper Shredder Strengths: Has a waste basket attached. Weaknesses: Is not recommended to shred newspaper, but the description did not mention that shortcoming. Summary: I wanted a shredder to shred newspaper for garden, but this one is not recommended to do that and the description made not mention of that whatsoever. It seems to be manufactured specifically to shred junk mail, and does have a special section of the blades to shred credit cards, so that is a plus. 0% of People (0/1) found this review helpful.

Anonymous Member Since: Jan 2008 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 1 Day	Fellow's Powershred P-57C's Shredder Strengths: Shreds paper, credit cards etc. very well Weaknesses: Shredder safety cover for blades not very sturdy. Summary: The shredder works quite well. Easy to clean and empty. The only thing I am disappointed about is that the safety cover for the blades is made from very cheap plastic and the hinges are very small and made of plastic. While I was unpacking the unit the hinges broke off. Was this review helpful or unhelpful for you? Report this as inappropriate. There are no comments for this review. Post a comment.

dteixeira Member Since: Jun 2008 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 2 Months	P-57 Shredder Reviewed Strengths: Quiet Weaknesses: Power Summary: Bought this shredder a month or two ago. So far it has done the job but I'm a bit disappointed in the unit's power; had difficulty shredding a credit card, but no problem with up to 5 sheets. Unit is quiet which is helpful when working at night with the kids already asleep. If the unit continues to be durable, I'd say its a fair buy but not 5 stars.

angelasu Member Since: Jun 2008 View Member's: Reviews Product Experience: 25 Days	works great Strengths: shreds quickly, can do 8 pages at once, sort of quiet Weaknesses: not sure- haven't tried shredding a cd yet. i wish the trash can was stronger though. Summary: I've only had this for a few weeks. I use it sparingly to shred junk mail and bills. I must say it's a lot better then the staples shredders though. I shred about 5 sheets at a time and it goes smoothly and quickly through. The slot is wide enough so I don't have to center the paper quickly and the sensor hasn't had any problems yet.
