It Doesn't Perform as Advertised--Flimsy and Cheap
You get what you pay for…someone said that long ago and he/she was right. This is the 3rd shredder I've reviewed and this is by far the worst. My sister purchased this one and lauded its price over my hefty purchase of a Fellowes PS60C-2 Confetti-Cut Shredder (here's the review:... Read full review »
The Fellowes FS5M Shredder: Small, Sleek, Simple, and Spartan
I've been resisting buying a shredder for my apartment because I don't think I have enough important documents to dispose of that I really need one. I still don't think not having one is a problem, but when I saw the Fellowes FS5M shredder on sale for $15 at Target I made an impulsive decision to... Read full review »
Built to tear up!
This thing was wired incorrectly right out of the box. It ran backwards, and I had to feed the paper through the bottom of the shredder! It ran for no more than 4 minutes, and I turned it off. It wouldn't turn back on.
Avoid this brand!

Eventhough this seemed like a good deal at the time of purchase, I will now have to spend the time to return this product. Read full review »
Shreds Paper and the Internal Gears!
I used this machine once and it worked fine for about 15 minutes before it crapped out by not pulling the paper through the blades any more. Upon further investigation I discovered that about half of the well-constructed plastic gears inside the machine were stripped.
This is a piece of...

Great for One Sheet at a Time Shredding
I was worried about identity theft so I bought the Fellowes FS5 Shredder because it was inexpensive and I didn't really have loads of shredding to do.
I works fine it you only shred one sheet at a time, but if you try to shred multiple sheets it jams every time. The problem seems to be in...
