Summary: One Great Shredder
Comment: When you're done paying $29.99 for shredders that aren't worth the $.99, take a look at this one. it does exactly what it advertises, and doesn't stop or require you to pull out jammed paper. the one area of notice is the paper bin window which doesn't give you a reading if a bag is in it (naturally). other than that, this is one hell of a shredder.

Summary: POWERFUL - QUIET MACHINE
Comment: I highly recommend this shredder!
The only problem I discovered is that there were some sharp edges inside the waste bin that would puncture the receptacle bag so I filed them off. Now... it's perfect!

Summary: So far so good
Comment: I just bought this shredder so this is more of a preliminary review.
I bought this one to replace an OfficeMax shredder I still have.
The OfficeMax shredder is a very good one, very quiet and does a reasonably good job. Unfortunately I abused it by feeding in stuff that was a bit too much for it. Now it will only shred on one side, so it needed to be replaced.
So I bought the Fellowes Intellishred SB-89Ci Shredder.
This is a sturdy shredder. What I particullarly like about it is the electronic sensor that warns you ahead of time that you are putting too much in too shred. In fact it won't turn on at all if the stack is too thick. So I simply take a few sheets out till the red light turns of and it gobbles it up in seconds. Just under 6 seconds. The rated speed is 10 feet per minute which means 12" every 6 seconds. So an ll" sheet takes a bit less.
Like some have said it is a bit loud. Louder than my old shredder, but it is a low growl more or less. You can tell it has a very powerful motor and I expect it to last a while. By the way it comes with a 2 year warranty on the whole shredder (by the manufacturer) and a life time warranty on the teeth.
The shreds are very small so it takes a while for the bin to fill. I can usually compress it a couple of times before I need to empty it.
I expect it will last a while.

Summary: As described
Comment: Had aprevious shredder which did not ever work as advertised. Noisy, became hot, shutoff after only a few minutes of shredding and an overall poor purchase. This unit in posted reviews was listed as quiet and heavy duty. It is all of that. Just humms away as it crunches up credit cards and DVDS.

Summary: Works as advertised
Comment: Bought this shredder to replace an older Fellowes shredder. We are currently putting all our paper files onto CD so we have an unusual amount of shredding to do in a day. Shredder advertises that it can do 850 sheets in a 5 minute period. We've tested that theory and it is capable of doing that amount. It hasn't overheated at any point and we probably push it a little more than we should. Typically, we shred several hundred pages per day. Haven't had any problems. Seems to handle the paper load well although I think 15 sheets at a time is a bit more than it actually "likes" to do. It will shred that amount but it goes into an overdrive mode to do it. Does 10 at a time with no problem and it's pretty fast. Was noisy the first few days - seemed to be from the pull out bin vibrating but has since gone away. It is not super quiet but can run it while on the phone w/o to much interference. We shopped around - Amazon had the best price at $155 with free shipping. Did read other reviews that the exteneded warranty wasn't worth the price as Fellowes tries to get out of replacing or fixing. I would have to agree - they found a loophole with our original shredder that allowed them to not replace - so, I wouldn't waste my money on the additional warranty.
