## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product.  Good for everyday and continuous use.
*by H***H on October 25, 2017*

So far so good. About two months into using this and it works great. It is dubbed the "Ollie North 2000" in my office due to its shredding prowess. I am using the standard bags they recommend and using the blade oil every time i switch out the bag. The only thing that I can find to complain about is the bag filling up and giving a warning about being full prematurely. The tight nap of the cross shred kind of clumps and just needs to fall a little cleaner, but giving the receptacle a little jostle usually settles the shred to give you more time between bag changes. Probably have to do this three times per bag before changing but not that big a task. Great for business use / continual use. It doesn't seem to slow down or get angry. Rejects pages when the stack is too thick, and has a pretty reliable reverse action to kick the choke point back to you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fellowes 425Ci
*by R***D on January 10, 2012*

Fellowes 425ciAs a small business, I have a problem where I generate 3 file boxes of paper that needs to stored, and the problem becomes worse when it is time to shred. I have gone through 4 office shredders and I felt I needed something more heavier duty to shred the archived paperwork. This shredder has been my answer. The bin fills up after one file box full of paper, but makes easy work of the chore. I love that it self oils and since it has wheels, it can be easily move into the corner after I have finished. I have a Fellowes confetti shredder for daily use. I use a 45 gallon trash bag as a liner instead of the trash bags that you can get from Fellowes. I only had this shredder for a few days and will I can hopefully update this review after several months. There are more expensive Fellowes shredders and I am not sure how they compare to this model. Even though the directions does not recommend using the shredder for radiographic film, I have found that it does a great job of shredding.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product!
*by D***K on February 10, 2021*

This is a great, heavy duty cross cut shredder. We purchased it to replace a very old one that we could not get repaired. So far it had worked great!
