Powershred LX201: A Compact Micro-Cut Shredder for One Desk

The Powershred LX201 is the entry point to Fellowes' LX micro-cut line: a small machine on castors, listed with Fellowes' Quiet Operation, that takes 12 sheets at a time and suits a home office or a single desk that shreds in short bursts.

Paper goes through the 230 mm entry and comes out as 2 x 12 mm particles, security level P-5, over 2500 per A4 sheet by Fellowes' count. Those small pieces pack into a 22 litre pull-out bin. It accepts staples, clips and credit cards; CDs are excluded.

The IntelliBAR strip on the lid is the clever part: its efficiency meter lights up as you feed, showing when there is room for more sheets and when you are close to the limit. Bin full and run time lights sit alongside it. The 100% Jam Proof system detects and powers through tough jobs, and SafeSense stops the cutters if hands, or a pet's paws, touch the entry. Per the manual the LX201 shreds for up to 10 minutes, then cools for 15. Fellowes Australia give it a 2 year machine and 5 year cutter warranty.

The English manual is on this page. Pick up shredder oil and bin liners, or step up through the micro cut range.

FAQs

Fellowes' manual gives a maximum recommended daily usage of 1000 sheets and 25 credit cards for the LX models. The LX201 suits lighter, regular use well within that.
The run time light turns yellow as it nears the limit and red when it needs a rest. It then cools for 15 minutes before shredding again.
No. The manual lists CDs and DVDs among the items it will not take. Paper, staples, paper clips and credit cards are fine.
Our Fellowes 36052 bags, made for bins up to 30 litres, suit it.
Capacity and stamina. The LX201 takes 12 sheets and runs 10 minutes, the LX211 takes 15 and runs 20, and the LX221 takes 20 sheets into a 30 litre bin.
