It will work at a rate of 130 sheets every minute.The front feed is 9 inch and can take in a legal sized paper quite easily. The durable steel cutters makes it sure that the shredder can cut through credit cards, paper clips and staples. The motors used are heavy duty motors and can allow extended shredding cycle. There is a clear window which allows you to see if the 6 gallon waste bin is full or not. In addition, there is a sheet capacity gauge that prevents jams and has a reverse function which can be handy to remove the over-fed papers. For quick operation, there is an option for auto on/off.

Summary: Good shredder, but
 
I've had this shredder about a month and have used it quite a bit shredding old documents (I've emptied the basket about a dozen times). The shredder appears to be pretty much everything that I thought it would be compared to the cheap shredders I've had in the past. It's certainly more substantial and quieter. My only regret is that I didn't spend a extra $20 for the similar Fellowes model that confetti cuts instead of the strip cut on this model. The basket fills up very fast with the large strip cuts made by this machine and I believe that a confetti cut machine would allow more paper to be shredded before the basket needs to be emptied. The trade off between the strip cut and confetti cut machines, as I understand, is that the confetti machines require a shredding oil to be used occasionally and the strip cut machines don't.

Summary: Smooth shredder
 
This unit is great for a home office. It's more quiet than my last one and shreds stapled documents with ease. The handle at the top makes it easy to empty the waste basket below.

Summary: IT IS A MONSTER!
 
I come from a big company environment where we had big shredders and people to do the shredding. After retirement, I bought two different "big box" office supply branded shredders. They were always jammed. In frustration, while trying to clean out years of personal information, I carried them to the garbage swearing and vowing never to buy cheap equipment again. (Actually they weren't inexpensive, just cheaply built.)
The next day I read reviews shopped around and bought the PS-60. It is a monster! I thought it performed as well as my old office shredders, it hardly choked. I did jam it with 14 sheets of heavy paper, but I can feed 10 sheets at a time until the bin is full and never jam it. Highly recommend.

Summary: Fellowes Top Removal Machines
 
I have a simular Fellowes...there are several drawbacks...One is the top has to be removed to empty the basket...the top is very heavy so watch your back...also be prepared to clean up some residue from the motor assembly cutting gears when the top is removed...I usually put some newspaper down & lay the top motor asm on that...the cutting gears on this machine need to be cleaned often especially the corners where the paper seems to bunch up more readily...the basket fills up quite quickly so if you are shredding a lot of paper be prepared to remove the top often...The window really does not help much in judging capacity...Most likely a model that has a removable bin or basket would have been better...Also I found that although many of these machines are advertized to shred...say example...12 sheets...if you use this many you will most likely find they go halfway & stop...need to reverse and then feed again. If that does not work then removal of the top is required and get out those needle nose pliers..which work wonders by the way in removing those paper jams between the gears...just make sure you disconnect the AC Power plug first. Last but not least is the fact that paper comes in differenct weights...so consider that fact when using this machine as it may not take the amount of sheets it is designed for if using heavier weight paper.

Summary: Fellowes Powershred PS-60
 
This unit is built like a tank. I've read others say it can jam. I've not had any problems with jams and I've feed it a lot of paper so far. Very nice medium size shredder.
