There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
update: April 2021...was just loving my shredder still until I put too many bank carbons in it and it jammed. I had to tug and pull and cut at paper to get out. I managed to release the jam. shredded a couple more papers and now two days later it wont even turn on??? I really love this shredder and I did jam it. Not sure if there was a proper jam but now it doesn't work??? After I have hubby check it out I may up buying again and then being more careful.
I'm going to give it 4 stars because I've only had it for 2 days. The true test to me is over time. So far I'm impressed, has lots of power, feeds quite a few sheets and feeds them quickly. The reviews about the top being very heavy are correct but I can deal with that and It is loud but it's only something you use every so often that it's not a big deal to me either. So far I would recommend I'm hoping it lasts a good long time.
Had it for about a month now. Shredded a big bin of stuff easily. Very powerful. Would buy it again!
9/19...a great shredder still glad I purchased it!
UPDATE: love it... It has been a year now this thing is going full speed ahead and I loved it would highly recommend.
10/21…it is still going strong, love it! I had a few jams I thought we’re close calls but managed through them, as I was reading my rambling messages above! Great by, highly recommend.
** PERFORMANCE **
The Fellowes Powershred W-11C is a monster. To start things off the shredder is rated at 190 inches per minute ( ~16 feet per minute ) which is fairly fast considering other shredders in this price range. The fast shredding rate made quick work of virtually anything it was fed and showed no hesitation on up to 6 sheets of paper. The shredder began to slow when 7+ sheets were fed into it at once so I recommend no more than 6 sheets to avoid unnecessary motor stress.
When it came to inserting documents to shred, the 9" opening was perfect and the machine cared little for how the document was fed through it. Even when the paper began to crunch up against the side (which constantly jammed our old shredder) the W-11C just ate through it without jamming or slowing down. The material that comes out is "Security Level 3" Cross-Cut confetti. It looks like tiny rectangular sheets and leaves documents in such a confetti-mess that it would be a nightmare to have to piece it back together again.
Overall the performance is 5 stars! The W-11C is just a beast that hungers for paper and devours almost anything fed to it!
** DESIGN**
The system has a very simple but effective design which is broken into two parts. WASTEBASKET and SHREDDER
SHREDDER - The guts of this monster. It accounts for most of the product weight (about 15 lbs of the 17lb shipping weight). While heavy, the product is built well having a sturdy design that lets it slip right into the wastebasket nice and snug. It includes a folding handle for when you need to lift the top of the device to make it easier to grip and lift. The opening for shredding paper is 9", which is very generous and makes feeding paper quite easy. The power switch is fairly solid but what concerns me is the "lock" switch. It is nice to have a lock out feature but the switch feels very flimsy compared to the rest of the machine. I can see the switch snapping if you forget to push down the lock button and pull. While a minor issue it could end up causing a problem if it does snap.
WASTEBASKET - Nice and spacious. Offers plenty of storage for the confetti, and contains a slot in which you can feed envelopes and non shred-able material in without having to lift the heavy shredder top. The only real flaw here is that the basket is very light. The basket itself might weight one pound, while the shredder weights almost 15 pounds. This makes the overall design very "top heavy". If you want to move the "assembled" device or accidentally nudge it with your foot there is a risk of the entire thing tumbling over / becoming unstable as-is with most top heavy objects. Not a major concern but does make moving the basket and shredder a bit difficult to do as one piece.
** DURABILITY **
The W-11C is meant to take a beating. While it isn't designed for constant long term usage, it does hold up exceptionally well over time. There is very little wear-n-tear on the machine after constant use. The only flag that goes up is that the shredder does get fairly warm after constant use if you are using it on and off for around 10 minutes straight. The motor does get warm fairly quickly so I wouldn't use it longer than 5 minutes of constant use; or 10 minutes of casual shredding for risk of overheating the motor. (the W-11C has a 5 minute auto turn off anyhow; probably to avoid overheating the motor)
** OVERALL I would give this shredder 5 stars. It is a beast of a shredder that will not let you down. What few problems/flaws it might have are minor and with some care and a little caution you won't ever have a problem with the device. If you are in the market for a decent shredder that cross-cuts the W-11C is the one you want. Good Security level confetti shredding, excellent performance and a quality design.
** NOTE: For Maintenance, the W-11C calls for Non-Aerosol Vegetable Oil. However, if you only use your shredder casually the use of Vegetable oil can be a problem since it could go rancid and begin to gunk up the gears.
** NOTE: For lubrication I prefer using UNV-38036 sheets. They are basically 8.5" x 5.25" sheets of paper that you shred. Inside is a lubricant that gets all over the gears. Just shred, run the shredder for 15 seconds in reverse and you are done. No squirt bottles, no messy clean up etc.

It was when I got it and then the left side stopped. The right side was working after and now it's not.
