- Awesome Shredder
This is the shredder I would build for myself if I could design one from scratch!

Fellowes has a great product with this new lineup (also inlcudes an 89 and 99 model)

The 79Ci is a powerful shredder - feed it 1 sheet or drop an envelope of junk mail in it - it pulls at the same rate and doesnt make the whining sound that most shreders make.

I like the safety features - there's a metal touch sensor in front of the feed slot - touch it and the thing shuts off. It also has a blue lit power switch on top of the unit, and an additional on-off rocker switch on the back.

It has an LED thickness meter that tells you if what you're feeding is too thick. If you have a bunch of junk mail to shred, you can disable the thicknes sensor by holding 2 buttons at the same time.

If you leave the thicknes sensor on, and stick something thick in(like a typical credit card junk mail piece, unopened) and it stops halfway though, you can push the forward button and force it to pull it through anyways. No need to reverse (though you can reverse if you want, there's a button for that too)

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. I found that the cheap 8 gallon kitchen bags we had around also fit the 6 gallon bucket.

With my old shredder, I had to open each piece of junk mail and feed a few sheets at a time into the shredder. Because of this I rarely shredded, and had accumulated a nice pile of junk mail.
The new 79Ci ate each and every piece of that junk mail- and I didn't open any of it.

Basically it's so easy to shred junkmail that you'll do it every time and it'll never pile up.

It also does CD's and credit cards.

I purchased mine from Office Depot for $180! - I had compared it instore to an Ativa model that cost $200 and claimed to do 20 sheets.
There was no comparison. the $200 Ativa started to groan as soon as I put a few sheets in. If I had to guess, this Fellowes 79Ci is at least 3 times more powerful. Also the Ativa didn't have the safety features, didn't have the thickness guage, didn't have an option to 'power through' paper jams, etc..

All in all I'm so happy with this thing that I had to take a few and write a review - this is the shredder to get - oh and one more thing, I wondered if I should have spent the extra for the next model up (the 89ci) but after shredding envelope after envelope of unopened junk mail today, I can't see needing anything more. The 79Ci is plenty good enough.

If you are thinking of ordering this from Amazon, I think you'll be ok, the shredder is boxed 'floating' in the box using those bio-degradable paper forms to keep in away from the cardboard on all sides, plus vertical the corners of the box are reinfoced with another layer of cardboard - it should be good to ship even if it doesn't get re-boxed.

I hope this review helps you make a good buying decision.

- It really is a little bulldog!
For the last 10 years, I've gone through 5 shredders. Each time, I was too cheap to pay more than $100. And each time those 5-sheet shredders broke down, I kicked the dead unit to the curb. This time, I decided to plunk my dollars down on a reputable brand. I purchased the Fellowes Intellishred PS-79CI Shredder. To my amazement, unlike any of the other shredders I bought and picked up at a local office supply store, this one weighed a hefty 32.1 pounds! Once out of the packaging, it was obvious the cutting heads and motor were heavy duty and contributed to the weight. A simple insertion of the 4 castor wheels, the included paper bin which hooks behind the unit (to hold future to-shred items), the 6-gallon waste bin, and finally the power cord. The unit has a master on/off switch near where the cord connects. Very handy! This allows a user to keep the unit standby ready. Another button on the top is for turning the unit on. Use this to turn on and off the shredder. When you have nosy kids around, simply also turn off the master power switch. Once set up, I went to town shredding old confidential documents. Up to 12 sheets at a time! No worries about counting sheets as the unit will sense if too many are inserted and the indicator warns you. Simply remove sufficient sheets and this bulldog of a shredder goes to work eating up the paper. I tested the SafeSense® feature by putting my hand on the metal throat of the shredder and it instantly stopped. Handy! The shredder has an indicator set at the top to show you when the bin is full, bin is removed, SafeSense is activated, the unit is overheated, or if there is a jam. By the way, this is by far the quietest shredder I've ever owed! I believe this is in part to the hefty housing of the shredding motor itself. There is a flap near the feeding throat that you can flip down to allow you to feed credit cards or CDs or DVDs in straight. Flip it back out of the way when normally not shredding those items. This is the best shredder I've owned and I certainly will enjoy allowing it to keep my confidential information that way!

- Great Shredder
This is a great shredder. Handles 10-12 pages without any problems. Very very quiet! Highly recommended. Auto stop if your fingers get near the paper throat.

- Paper eater.
I have had this shredder for only a few weeks. My only complaint is where do I put the oil I am supposed to use so frequently?? It is a great shredder for the home. I have used it a lot and it works great. Has some really good features, very quiet, smooth as 12 year old Scotch and looks as good. For the money it is one fine shredder.

- Good purchase
Arrived in an excellent condition in a timely manner. Also the price was lower than anywhere else I saw on the net. So far, I haven't had any problems (jamproof!) and shreds paper, CD's, clips, etc. Serves just fine for my needs at home.
