Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Fellowes Shredder Oil, 12 oz. Bottle with Extension Nozzle (35250)

Customer Review: Enhanced Performance!
Summary: 4 Stars

I spoke with Fellowes, they say it's OK to use regular cooking vegetable oil (canola, etc.) in their machines, but only temporarily, not in the long run, because regular vegetable oil may become sticky and start smelling rancid. I'll stick with the dedicated oil and give it just 4 stars since there exists an alternative. I will, however, give Fellowes 5 stars for their candor. Also, be careful not to cut too big a chunk in the nozzle, so you won't waste the oil when oiling your machine.

Customer Review: Does The Job But So Does Vegetable Oil For Less
Summary: 3 Stars

My last shredder died because I used 3 in 1 oil instead of the correct type of oil. I thought I'd play it safe by buying the one recommended for my new Fellowes Powershredder. I was a little disappointed to find out that vegetable oil will work just as well. It even says so in the shredder documentation. I think the bottle could have been designed a little better to control the amount of oil you use and to not be as messy but it does the job and my shredder is running beautifully.

Customer Review: Overpriced
Summary: 2 Stars

The only reason I bought this product is because of the bottle. I could not find a bottle with a long nozzle in my area. I'll be refilling the bottle with cheap vegetable oil. I couldn't even find this product in local office supply stores. The only thing I could find was a pack of ten sheets of paper impregnated with soybean oil for $9.99. I left the store in a huff that somebody would even think of charging that kind of money for soybean oil. There is simply no need for it.

Customer Review: Not Bad
Summary: 4 Stars

I just recently purchased this brand of shredder oil a few days ago on Amazon.com. I received it yesterday and put it to work on the new shredder of mine. This oil is indeed made out of good ingredients -- as it is very light but effective. Oiling a shredder is never a fun task, and I still believe the sheets are better, less messy, but not worth the dollar amounts you put out over a period of time for just a few sheets. The oil in the bottle definitely lasts longer.

Customer Review: Probably more of a 3.5...
Summary: 3 Stars

Fellowes 32057 Powershred P-57Cs Shredder
This shredder is good enough for the home/small office. Make sure to buy the lubricant though. I used it for a few days w/ out the lube and it was struggling after about 4 pages. Worked much better post-lubrication. The pieces of paper were a bit longer than I was hoping for but it does meet my information security concerns.
