This is my second “office products” review - the first was for my Fellowes brand storage boxes, and now I am reviewing a Fellowes W11C paper shredder. It may seem that I have some deal with Fellows to write reviews of their products, but I promise it’s just random coincidence that I keep buying their stuff. Luckily for them, so far I’ve only bought their quality products.
It may seem a bit crazy, but I love owning a paper shredder, and the W11C is a good one. For the past few years, I would spend a few minutes every time I got identity-theft-sensitive junk mail tearing them into pieces - a task that is easy enough to do, but not nearly as satisfying as dropping a unopened credit card offer envelope into a shredder and watching it get chopped into 1,000 pieces. This shredder is capable of shredding 11 sheets at a time, and doesn’t seem to have any problems with destroying entire envelopes at once. Not only is it helping me keep myself safer, but it’s giving me more free time, one bit at a time. I would tell you how much it cost, but I received it as a gift (thanks Crystal) - many online retailers list it for around $50 - it’s not necessarily a steal, but it’s a decent price for a shredder with the abilities and features that the W11C has.
As I mentioned before, the Fellowes W11C is a powerful shredder, especially for a home-use small-size shredder. It is able to handle things that weaker shredders can’t like credit cards and staples. It cuts things into confetti-cut pieces, much more thorough and smaller than a lot of shredders of the same size and value. On the other hand, it is a loud shredder - louder than others I’ve used - but it has the excuse that it is powerful to make up for the noise.
I like the fact that this shredder comes with a opening to the trash bin, so that it can be a dual purpose shredder and office trash.
Do you enjoy shredding papers as much as I do?

We moved almost a month ago into a new rental house - naturally, the “office” is still a disaster - all of the extra moving boxes, and all of my disorganized computer paraphernalia is stashed in there, awaiting my organization efforts. Unfortunately, this new place has a lot less closet and storage space inside than our old place, but it does have an outside storage shed.
In an effort to better organize all of my stuff in the storage shed I decided to find some good quality storage boxes for cheap. I was able to pick up a package of ten “bankers boxes” at Walmart for $12. This type of box is exactly what I had in mind. I like the fact that they have a nice lid and handles on the sides, and $12 was definitely within my budget.
Putting the boxes together was very simple - the lid is attached, but is perforated and easily detached - each box has visual directions printed on it, showing how to fold the flaps to properly put the boxes together; after the first one or two, I knew exactly what I was doing. No tools or other accessories were required for putting them together. I was able to put all the boxes together in about 5-10 minutes. The boxes seem incredibly sturdy, and all ten are in good condition.
As an included bonus, a postcard was included in the packaging proclaiming “WIN $500″ - all I had to do for an entry in this drawing was fill out a simple survey about my box purchase online - which actually ended up inspiring this review. I’ll make sure to tell you all when I win the $500 :)
Check these boxes out if you are in need of a bit of organization yourself, and wish me good luck on my ongoing project.
