Electric pencil sharpener
Really liked the electric pencil sharpener. Works well with larger pencils too. We needed this for a while since we have been schooling the grandkids.

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.

60% unusable
I have ordered 3 of these for our teachers. One has been fine, but the other two broke within a month and are unusable now.

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.
