Product Review

Fellowes Powershred P70CM Cross Cut Paper Shredder Review

Have you been looking for a small paper shredder that has special features and is easy to use? If so, the Fellowes DS-1 just might be the right machine for you. Check out its strengths and weaknesses:

Strengths:

  • The DS-1 offers a good level of security because it's a cross-cut shredder. The machine will turn your paper into bits that measure just 5/32” x 1-3/8” so you can protect all of your important information.
  • In addition to paper, this shredder can destroy credit cards so you'll have an extra level of protection. You can also save time with this device because it will get rid of stapled documents and envelopes.
  • The DS-1 is safe to use because it's equipped with SafeSense technology. SafeSense is a terrific feature that causes the machine to stop running when your hands are too close to the feed opening.
  • If you don't have a lot of free space in your work area, the DS-1 is the shredder to get. This machine's approximate dimensions are 22.25” (height) x 15.5” (width) x 11.25” (depth), so it's small enough to fit under a table or desk. Also, this shredder looks great thanks to its mesh waste bin. The waste bin has a step-latch for easy shred disposal.
  • The DS-1 can run continuously for up to 5 minutes and it starts shredding when you place an item in the feed opening. There's also a reverse mode to help you deal with paper jams. Overall, the shredder is easy to use.
  • Finally, the DS-1 comes with a 5-year warranty on the cutters. The rest of the device is guaranteed for 1 year.

Limitations:

  • The DS-1 is meant for deskside use by 1 person. Due to that, it's not a great choice if you need a heavy-duty machine that can be used by a number of people during the course of a workday.
  • Since this is a small shredder it doesn't have an automatic oiler. Thus, you'll need to oil the shredder yourself on a regular basis. This isn't hard to do, but it will be one more thing to add to your “to do” list.
  • The DS-1 can only shred up to 11 sheets at once, so it won't fit the bill if you need a device with a large shredding capacity.

The Fellowes DS-1 is a shredder you should definitely consider if you need a small cross-cut machine for occasional use. This device has some terrific features such as the ability to shred credit cards and stapled documents. Also, it's great that this shredder has SafeSense technology so you can shred all you want safely and easily. And, of course, the DS-1 looks great and it's small enough for cramped spaces. Of course, the machine has some weaknesses, but that's to be expected of a smaller shredder. As long as you're satisfied with the DS-1's strengths, you'll find that this shredder will fit your needs. If that's the case, take a look at it today.
