The POWERSHRED 73Ci – Ready, Set, Shred!

When it comes to documents, I like personal/confidential information like the cheese on my taco, shredded. Much like rats, identity thieves are always looking to get their hands on the next big block of cheese. That’s why I keep it all “grated” with Fellowes® POWERSHRED 73Ci.

Chances are if you’ve worked in an office you’ve worked right alongside one of their products. Fellowes® has made quite the name for themselves too which is probably why you can find their products in offices virtually everywhere. They aren’t really ones to brag or anything but they do make The World’s Toughest Shredders™. Making tough shredders is what they do. As the word gets out more and more people are using Fellowes® to protect their sensitive materials.

To review the POWERSHRED 73Ci I decided to use it while cleaning out our file cabinet. This file cabinet was busting at the seams with over 10 years of receipts, tax and medical records, and credit information. Within this box was enough “cheese” to feed an army of rats. I had no problem at all cleaning out the file cabinet with this fine piece of machinery. I used the POWERSHRED 73Ci almost non-stop for over an hour and it never slowed down a bit. Dumping the waste bin is a synch and oiling it takes mere seconds.

Setting up the Fellowes POWERSHRED 73Ci is a snap and it runs pretty quiet when shredding. It’s like there are a hundred little ninjas in there just waiting to slice and dice whatever you send their way. And it is essentially good-to-go right out of the box with minimal assembly required. Throwing away the box and packing materials will probably take more time that setting it up. Virtually anyone can assemble and operate this thing. Just plug it in, turn it on, and shred your worries away!

Those of you that know me know how good I am at finding flaws in products. You’ve got to give the good with the bad right? Well, the problem is…. I really couldn’t find a thing negative to say about this machine. It works great, it’s competitively priced, it’s made well, it looks nice sitting there, and so easy to use. What more could you ask for in a shredder? Tip of the hat to the fellows at Fellowes®! I am sure this shredder will be with us for a long time to come!

Like many others these days, we do pay for “services” that function as  traps for identity thieves but the POWERSHRED 73Ci is now our first line of defense. The problem is most services only help after the damage has been done. Don’t wait until someone has their hands on your identity. Take the first step by destroying information before they even get it! Whether you are keeping your family or client’s information safe, Fellowes® has just what you need. What are you waiting for? Stop identity theft before it starts with the POWERSHRED 73Ci! Ready, set, shred!
