Fellowes P-12C Paper Shredder Review & Giveaway

With all the paper statements and confidential letters, I often let it get piled up in my folders and on my desk in the paper tray over time and due to procrastination. Because my little one is always touching things, I had to put away my old little paper shredder in the storage room when it’s not in use. It’s dangerous having it lying around especially when the lid can be easily opened, exposing the sharp cutters. I also admit that I’m lazy to bring it out and place it back and forth. I needed one with better safety and that I can just leave under my desk.

I was given the opportunity to try out Fellowes P-12C Paper Shredder. It is a cross-cut shredder (black) with Safe-Sense Technology. This advanced electronic safety sensor surrounds the paper entry and automatically stops the shredder when hands are too close to the paper opening. The P-12C has a compact design and yet powerful enough to shred paper clips, staples, paper, and credit cards. It has a on-off switch at the back as well as a safety lock at the top.




I also noticed the pull-out bin (which holds 4-gallon). I like this feature because it’s quite convenient just to slide it out from the side. Unlike my old one, I have to lift out the whole unit from the waste basket and being careful of the sharp cutters underneath.

Identity theft is increasingly extending to children, and it can take years to clear their good name. Whether your children are in elementary school or off to college, the simplest way to protect them is with a shredder. With the Fellowes P-12C Paper Shredder, you won't have to worry about anyone looking through or getting their hands on your confidential information.

WHERE TO BUY: The Fellowes P-12C Shredder is available at Target stores for $84.99.
