Customer Reviews

Almost perfect
This powerful, large-capacity shredder not only cross-cuts pretty impressive stacks of paper (with staples), or even credit cards... it looks pretty good, too. In a home office, especially, this is a good thing. The only knock is that the insert slot is a *tad* small. It BARELY fits regular size envelopes, and the slightly longer ones (that bills and junk mail come in) have to be fed diagonally. The unit itself doesn't need to be bigger, just the slot. Because the unit actually holds a lot of shreddings, and the dump-able basket is awesome.

Piece of Junk
I purchased this shredder for my mom and it died before 6 months was up. Spoke with the manufacturer and after answering a few questions and testing the shredder over the phone to determine if it was fixable, they readily agreed to send a new one and were very easy to deal with. Received the new one promptly and it hasn't been 2 months and the new one is now not working. Other Fellowes shredders have worked great that I have purchased, but steer very clear of this one. This shredder even looks cheap when you get it.

Love the design
Worked great for a basket and a half...then it stopped. I had emptied the first basket, oiled the blades per owners manual and waited about an hour. Then I was half way into the second basket and it stopped. Seems the circuit board fried. Reoiled the blades and waited 2 days but it still dead. Sent back for refund via Amazon and ordered the Fellowes 77Cs and it is working like a champ. If that burns up I'll try the 450/460, then a different brand after that. Am a happy boy for now..
I love the mesh basket design of the DS-1. Easy to remove and empty. Stable, eats the paper easily and quickly. Just wish I hadn't gotten a lemon.
