" We are experiencing a great relief after our purchase of the
C-225Ci Jam Proof Cross-Cut Shredder. We are a hospital with 33 beds and have needs of a more efficient, higher capacity, and reliable shredder and Fellowes came through once again. We have purchased shredders from Fellowes before, but they were not the commercial end that we were needing and we were burning out the motors of the others because of the excess usage of our nursing staff. Patient confidentiality is of the utmost importance, so we must protect our patient's information and this is where Fellowes comes to our rescue. With previous purchases we have always been satisfied and hope to continue our relationship long into the future. Thank you.

" I have owned my fair share of shredders and usually they last about a year. This unit is constructed well and is somewhat quieter than what I am use to. I bought it because of other favorable reviews. So far so good. It has taken everything I put in it. I have many old files that I plan shred as opposed to using an outside company. "

" I just received the C-225Ci when expected and I was lucky that the delivery person used his hand truck to get it down the stairs to my office. Its heavy but wow! Very quite and take wads of paper at a time. If it gets over loaded, the bars lite up and it reverses easily.
I hope to get many years from this shredder. I love it and appreciate the paper bin. GBC got rid of theirs in this class of shredders. "

" This is by far the best shredder ever. I have purchase 5 shredders in the last 4 years, and not a one had the quality or power this machine has. We purchase the C-225Ci Jam Proof Cross-Cut Shredder and it is everything I hoped for. One note: it works best without the bag, the full sensor light comes on long before the bag is half filled, with just the bin it works great. "

" Well I've only used this shredder for two days so far. It is very quiet and efficient. I'm hoping it will be the workhorse it was advertised to be. Noticed that when you continuously feed papers in one after the other it want's to stop and wait. Maybe have to get used to this one vs my Staples shredder. The jury is out until I've had more continuous usage. "

" I bought this because the reviews mentioned it was quiet. Fellowes advertises that it is "ultra-quiet" but do not agree. I normally work around very loud machines and so to be able to hear this through it is disappointing. I guess my expectations were to high or it is just overly advertised on it's silent functionality. Overall though, this machine will do far more than the older Fellowes model we had PS-10Cs. This model overheated often and was not able to keep up with the amount of shredding we do nowadays. BTW I did not realize I was buying the same brand. "

" The first shredder that arrived wouldn't work unless the door was shut really hard. With a phone call to the manufacturer, we learned that it had a bad circuit board. Customer Service was great, the were able to send us a replacement within about 10 days. That one has worked fine so far. It is nice and quiet and does a good job. Our one complaint is that the basket for the shredded documents appears to be made of heavy cardboard. This was a surprise because the shredder was quite expensive and should have been made of heavier duty materials. "

Pros: Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, bottle oil included
Cons: cardboard type shred bin, no cd shred bin
" Recently purchased the 225CI for the cross-cut feature as the one previously in use was a straight cut. As recently obtained this shredder it has to date been operating well - no issues. A nice surprise, the 225Ci came with a bottle of oil as the 225i we were using did not.
I am disappointed in the shred bin that was supplied with this 225Ci shredder - a heavy-thick cardboard carton for the bin. This was disappointing as the 225i we were using had a heavier corrugated type bin that is much sturdier/construction than this heavy-thick cardboard. Makes you wonder exactly how long this will last with the on-going emptied of the shred bin. How soon we will be seeking a shred bin replacement.
The other disappointment, the 225i had a "separate" bin for the shredded CD's. The 225Ci does not. Any shredded CD's are now mixed in with the shredded paper.
With the price paid, would think there would be a better constructed shred bin and would include the CD shred bin.
Other than these two concerns, the shredder works as expected.
Recommend? Yes, would purchase another, and would recommend to others. "

" The shredder was working good for 11mnths and then started acting up. It can't take high volume as advertised. I called up customer service and was told to clean the scensors and that didn't work. Full bin light stays on when there's nothing in the basket. I called back for a service call and they couldn't tell me who would be calling me and that it would take 1-3 business days for just a phone call. Really bad customer service. We need this shredder ASAP, our shredding is piling up quickly. :( "
Response from Fellowes:By ASCSJuly 7, 2016
We apologize for the inconvenience that you have expereinced with both your 225 shredder and our customer service. This is not indicative of our brand and we would appreciate the opportunity to remeedy this matter with you as soon as possble. Please refer to your email for further communication. Thank you for taking the time to share your review and we look forward to working with you in the near future.

Pros: Sheet Capacity, Quality Construction, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, Safety Features, Secure Cut Size, Mess Reduction, nice looking for a professional office
Cons: Quiet Operation, Jam Resistance, does not pull paper through straight
" When adding paper to the shredder slot, the augers pull at the paper and cause the paper to not go in straight. This is generally not a problem except when you are feeding close to the maximum number of sheets and the paper turns as it is being shredded. This causes the sensor to think it has to many sheets because it starts to bunch up the paper. Run the machine in reverse and reset the paper and proceed and it will chew through the paper. This is a real hassle unless you really enjoy spending extra time at the machine trying to shred paper. This slows down the process considerably.
The machine seems very well built. I really like the sensor for safety. Not likely that you would get a finger caught in the shredder anyway, but this safety feature adds a good ounce of protection. This is a well built, nice looking machine.
I wish Fellowes would advertise what size the trash bags are that go in the bin. Having the bags makes it real easy to empty the bin and start shredding again. The bags need to be bigger than the bin so that when they are full they can be tied off and set aside for recycling. Merely need the bag size.
I was hoping for a strong shredder with a fair speed. The speed is my only issue and my issue only when the paper turns in the slot because it does not pull the paper through the cutters straight. For this reason, I would not recommend this to a friend. "

Pros: Sheet Capacity, Shreds Credit Cards, Staples and CDs, space saver
Cons: Jam Resistance, poor quality construction, safe sense technology that makes no sense
" Purchased the Powershred 225Ci, and it has been a nightmare since two weeks from purchase date. It is a beautifully designed unit that takes less office space than the dinosaur unit it replaced. In my opinion, the dinosaur unit with no bells and whistles was a far better unit. This unit is on its 4th repair. It does jam on occasion, but that is the least of its problems. The sensory system is faulty. Instead of auto-stop when job is completed, it runs continuously until the user turns it off. It has become such a nuisance to operate because for it to work you have to press the right arrow before putting the paper in and while it is shredding. Now, with this repair, we have come to find out that there is a piece broken under its hood. I wonder how that happened. As for the safety feature, of course this is great...the darn thing stops working and lights up like a Christmas tree when you insert paper. In my opinion, this is not a professional, high-capacity shredder, and like a new car...it should be bound by the "Lemon Law". "

" I purchased two of these units. They have been in service for 4 months and they have both failed, making loud grating noises, sounding like stripped gears.
This model is not reliable at all. "
