After purchasing other sharpeners, this one is here to stay, litterly. Once I received this, I was amazed at the weight. After installation, of course I had to try. The housing never moved. Pencels were sharpened in about three seconds. Noise was minimal.

Decent purchase

It takes too long to sharpen just one pencil, and makes a very fragile point. Guess a good purchase for the money, but only recommend for occasional use at home.

X-ACTO XLR 1818 Electric Pencil Sharpene

By JCan

Comments about X-ACTO XLR 1818 Electric Pencil Sharpener Black:

Purchased this pencil sharpener to replace a Bosch electric that had quit working and while the Bosch would chew the pencil to almost nothing if you did not watch yourself this pencil sharpener stops sharpening when the pencil is sharp. That is a convenient option and one that I enjoy.
The shavings receptacle could be be a little larger because you need to dump weekly -- approx. thirty sharpenings' or so -- but overall the machine operates with little noise, puts a slightly broader tip on the pencil than the Bosch and does an good job.
I would purchase this X-ACTO XLR 1818 Electric Pencil Sharpener again.

    Comments about X-ACTO XLR 1818 Electric Pencil Sharpener Black:

    We bought this sharpener because my sons needed it for homework. They always seem to need to sharpen a pencil. They complained endlessly about the old fashioned sharpeners and not being able to sharpen pencils very well. I had never had an electric sharpener, so getting one was not on my mind. After years of dull pencils, I decided to finally buy a sharpener. It was a great buy. It was just what was needed. It sharpens pencils easily and does not oversharpen. It was a great buy. We love it.

      Comments about X-ACTO XLR 1818 Electric Pencil Sharpener Black:

      I had an old version of this model that finally broke down and liked the product so well that I had to replace it with the xacto version. So far no complaints- hope it last 20 years or so like the last one!

      A good pencil sharpener

      • Good Value

      Cons

        Best Uses

          Comments about X-ACTO XLR 1818 Electric Pencil Sharpener Black:

          This is a good sharpener for the money. It has one spiral cutter, not a knife blade like others in this price range. It also limits sharpening when pencil is properly pointed. Should last some years with proper care and moderate use as advertised.
