from By auntycathy, reviews.homedepot.com
it has a great easy-to-remove bin that can be lined with a plastic trash bag to keep from having those little shreds of paper left over when emptying the bin.
from www.amazon.com
has not jammed nor over-heated while i spend c.15 minutes at a time stuffing wads of paper with occasional staples and plastic into it.
from www.amazon.com
because of its mesh basket, it is a bit louder than the enclosed plastic shredders, but its other features more than make up for the noise.
from www.amazon.com
i lined the basket with a plastic bag so it is even easier to empty out.
from www.amazon.com
i agree with everyone else that you should line it with a plastic bag or else clean up will be a pain in the neck when the machine's full.

Fellowes 3227901 Intellishred PS-79Ci

from www.amazon.com
the shredder comes with plastic bags for the bin, but i found it is just as messy emptying the hopper with the bags as without, so i don't use the bags.
from www.amazon.com
the plastic bags that accompany this product aren't anything to write home about, so i wouldn't waste money on purchasing replacements.
from www.amazon.com
my only issue is bag removals, i find the bags hang up on inside plastic protrusions which are somewhat sharp, causing bags to rip.
from www.amazon.com
i have read that some machines use plastic toothed gears which have higher/earlier failure rates than metal ones.
from www.amazon.com
comes with some plastic bags, some oil (for lubricating the cutters - just drip into the slot while holding the reverse button), wheels and a nice holder that i keep the manual and oil in.

from www.amazon.com
my previous shredder was a small desktop unit and a plastic cog broke which disabled it.
from www.amazon.com
of course the little plastic protrusions that hinged it to the undercarriage are broken off and there is no way to put it back on.
from www.amazon.com
after the first few uses the plastic shield inside the shredder which ostensibly guides the shredded paper into the wastecan fell off, but the functioning of the shredder doesn't seem to be affected.
from www.amazon.com
be careful--when you see white through the plastic lens, empty it right away.
from www.amazon.com
it even tears through the ones with plastic cards inside.

from www.amazon.com
we've tried the plastic bags, which work just fine, but tend not to use them because we recycle our paper and cannot dump it in plastic bags.
from www.amazon.com
a supply of plastic refill waste bags comes with it; other refills can be bought in stores.
from www.amazon.com
i bought this "intellishred" shredder to replace an old fellowes shredder we used for three years (which worked fine), but just stopped working when a plastic gear broke inside.
from www.amazon.com
the fellowes plastic bags and lubricating oil are not necessary and pricy.

you unplug the shredder, remove the four wing nuts and remove the cutter head from the housing then clean around the cutters to clear pieces of paper trapped between the cutter and plastic housing.
from www.mwave.com
came with 4oz of shredder oil (very easy to oil and recommended every time you empty the big bin) and 2 large plastic garbage bags.

it has safety features, nice design, shreds paper into very fine pieces, separate bins for paper/plastic.

only wish is that they use some material that's more durable instead of cheap plastic.
