Good strength
I’m a mom of 3 boys one of which loves to draw and so I purchased this sharpener for at home use. At first it sharpened well but now is leaving all the pencils with wood on half of the points. This is so annoying.

Looks Good—But Lacks Strength
It looks great but it’s not as heavy duty as I had hoped. I went to sharpen a pencil and it would stall as it sharpened the pencil. I am tempted to return it for something else.

Heavy Duty Working Great So Far
My family has used this sharpener quite a bit already. It is large and it is heavy. It's designed for classroom use but we were tired of all those cheaper "personal"-use sharpeners breaking so we invested in this classroom sharpener for our own personal use. 'Glad we did.

The plastic waste container pops open if you don't tape it shut and it doesn't sharpen the pencil correctly. Leaves one side with the wood on the tip.

Great
Only issue I had was when the shavings plastic wanted to pop out so I would have to hold it with my thumb.

Perfect sharpener.
Purchased for a 92 yr old coloring hobbyist. Color pencil user. Loves the quick point sharpening without over sharpening the pencil away. He is very happy.

I bought this 12 months ago. The shavings container won't stay in preventing me from using it.

Fonctionne assez bien, jusqu'au jour où il cesse soudainement de fonctionner! Dans une salle de classe, ne dure pas une année complète, même s'il n'y a que l'adulte qui le manipule. C'est le 2e du même modèle qui cesse de fonctionner au bout de 6 à 8 mois.

X-acto School Pro Electric Pencil Sharpener 1670
This is my second X-acto School Pro Electric Pencil Sharpener. The first model was manufactured in 2007. I used it nearly every day from its purchase to August 18 2024 when the motor suddenly stopped while I was repeatedly sharpening a pencil for use in a drawing. The new version has improved design features that produce a perfectly sharpened pencil every time with a...

Great sharpener!
This sharpener is large heavy duty and quick. It does have a plastic dial for the different sizes of pencils but it still a great sharpener. No over sharpening large shavings holder and the base suctions to a smooth flat surface. Noise is minimum and it sharpens quickly. This is great for those who sharpen a large number of pencils and are in need of a heavy-duty sha...
