One caution: Be sure to follow the unpacking instructions on the side of the box. I didn't see them and unloaded it from the box upside down. It took two people to set it upright. It's really heavy and that's good because it really does the job when it shreds. It can continuously shred paper for a couple hours. Be certain their aren't too many sheets (it will shred a thick collection). There is an indicator to help. Stay out the red for the thickness.
It does make shredding more a pleasure. Smaller shredders are fine but this is for heavy duty work.
Highly recommended.
This shredder is a game changer! We can shred many, many more pages at a time, it is much quieter and stands at a very comfortable height for ease of use. It comes with a supply of oil, and bags to get you started. The only disappointing part was that the waste bin is made of cardboard. It is a very sturdy cardboard but I would have assumed for the money spent it would have had a plastic bin for sustainability purposes. Don't let this small item keep you from your purchasing though, as we are very satisfied with the machine as a whole.

Sensors went foobar on me twice (just wanted to use that word).
First time was from using bags we'd gotten from Costco (those regular white 10-gallon trash bags, you know?) and something or another happened with the sensors and the techie came and told us we need to use the officially branded Fellowes 36054 Powershred Waste Bag . So, we bought a bunch, used them and it was working for... a while. This was just weeks out after getting the machine and the explanation was something about the material of the bags messing with the sensors. No replace or anything was done on the sensors here, just a replace on the bags.
Second time was from improper oiling of the machine. So, following the instructions provided, we'd poured oil right into the slot of the shredder, using of course the officially branded Fellowes Shredder Oil, 12 oz. Bottle with Extension Nozzle (35250) (how the Hell are there used ones being sold?!). A couple months later? Machine would run like nuts whether paper was in there or not. Only way to stop it was to turn it off and only turn it on when we needed to shred. Mind you, the whole point of having sensors was to automate this process. So, I got back from college and I called tech support. He came out here, ran the machine, and immediately knew that the problem was with the sensors. He explained to us that the instructions provided expect you to take apart the top of the machine and pour the oil directly onto the gears (not through the slot, directly onto the gears). Of course, removing the top of the machine would void our service warranty, so it didn't make sense for us to do that or even have that in the instructions. NORMAL people would do the same thing we did and just pour it in through the top. Now the problem with this? If even one drop of oil leaks down the side wall and gets near the two sensors, paper dust will collect on the oil and eventually ruin the sensors. So, fair warning, if you're buying this machine, do NOT pour oil directly down the slot.
So, some key notes:
1. Use Fellowes bags and Fellowes shredder oil. I'm pretty sure any oil will work and if you get lucky, you might find cheaper bags that work, but this is to be on the safe side.
2. When you want to oil the machine, pour oil on a sheet of paper you're going to shred, put another sheet of paper on top of it (oil sandwich), and put that through the shredder. If you want to properly do it, you need to take off the top, but there are wires hooked to the top and if you pull just a bit too hard, you'll disconnect them and the shredder won't work. So, again, to be on the safe side, paper and oil sandwich.
3. Clean the sensors. With the shredder off and a long cotton swab with an alcohol/water mixture. Dust will collect around the sensors, this is inevitable. So you will need to clean it off.
All in all, it's a really good shredder. Those problems happened in the first year and it's been over a year since we'd had any further problems with it. I'm actually getting one more for the office and one for my family to use at home now that the price has dropped. In my opinion, as I've had shredders ranging from less than $100 to over $2000 as well as contracted shredding services, this is the best affordable shredder. If you want to drop $1,500 or so, I highly recommend the Fellowes 38425 Powershred 425Ci 28 Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder . I got one of those same time I got the first 225Ci and haven't had a single problem with it. The only two reasons I'm not getting two of those? 1. I know that someone, family or one of my 40 coworkers, is going to mess with it in a way it shouldn't be messed with and I'll probably have to replace it anyways. 2. Because it's not like they'll know or appreciate the difference anyways, but my bank account sure will.
Best part about this shredder, it never jams, and if you put too much in, it will automatically un-jam itself and you just remove some of the paper
so your not fighting paper jams like I did with smaller shredders. It also holds a larger amount in the box beneath so you do not have to empty as much. The bags that this uses actually will hold two loads. I empty the 1st load and replace another bag and when that bag is full pour it into the 1st bag . We recycle all these so the bags are all full and use less bags. And I oil the shredder every time I change the bag.
So easy to use. Glad I purchased, made my life easier than the smaller one I was using trying to get rid of paperwork and old bills, etc.... from years in storage.
