Planned Obsolescence

Shredder worked just fine, but, after three years we started getting paper "jams". I took it apart and there is two plastic pieces that keep the shredded paper from rolling around the two cutter rollers. One of these plastic pieces had four "teeth" broken off. These are just cheap pieces of molded plastic that should not cost more than $5.00 each if that much. That is if you could purchase them. I called the factory and there are no parts available for a machine that is three years old. So for lack of a $5 part you get to throw the whole shredder in the garbage. Never would be the next time I purchase a Fellowes product.
