What a relief - a quiet shredder

Author's Rating:

Pros: Quieter than most, well built, runs smoothly

Cons: Paper-full viewing window is too small and can occasionally snag plastic bag upon removal.

Author's Review
I just bought a PS60c-2 for home use. It is my 3rd shredder over the years. I am a compulsive shredder in this world of identity fraud run rampant. The Fellowes is well built and I mainly selected it over other less expensive models because it is much quieter than most. As an acoustical engineer and one involved in product design, I am especially appreciative of this feature. Additionally it runs well and shreds nicely.

The unit has 2 shortcomings.
1. The window in the front is too small to easily see the paper level as it becomes full. It should be about twice as large as it is in some of other Fellowes models.
2. The tabs that allow the clear plastic to snap into the bin to hold the window in place are too long and too sharp. Sometimes when you remove the plastic bag from the bin it snags on them and tears, spilling paper shreds. I sanded down the tabs to make them smoother.
