Comments about X-ACTO� Teacher Pro� Desktop Electric Pencil Sharpener; Blue/Black:
I'm a math teacher so sharpening pencils is a constant occurrence in my classroom. I purchased two of these sharpeners. They are definitely the best I have ever found!

Horrible sharpener
By Wendy the secretary

About Me Midrange Shopper
The mechanism that stops the sharpener because it thinks your pencil is sharp triggers too quickly/almost immediately. It takes way too long to get the pencil sharp by having to re-insert it multiple times. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
It's a great sharpener for my classroom!

Not great after a month of use
By Wise in AZ
from Chandler, AZ
After going through 6 pencil sharpeners last school year, it has been proven that my 4th graders are hard on a pencil sharpener. That said, we changed our classroom routine last year and decided that pencil sharpening was for grown-ups only and banned colored pencils. This was only our 2nd pencil sharpener of this school year so I was feeling pretty lucky. However, after a month of use, it began to break the sharpened point after getting it sharp. The floor under the sharpener is littered with the tip of the lead. Decided to use it as a math lesson: The probabilty that our pencil sharpener would break the lead was 1:8. Not so great.

Very Good

This pencil sharpener is great for teachers. It has a varity of sizes and it sharpens well. However, it should be used by the teachers only in my opinion.
Super Sharpener
By Teachertwo

I purchased this sharpener to replace 2 others that broke this year. It is absolutely fantastic! I am a teacher so we use it daily! It works so well, I regret not buying it sooner! Well worth the investment!

Light stays on, wont let you sharpen at all.
Last Pencil sharpener you will ever need
By Teacher's volunteer
from San Diego
Burned out many other pencil sharpeners. Some just did not sharpen the pencil with the lead in the center. This one is fast, accurate and stops when done. It just keeps on going. Easily sharpens 50 pencils in a row.
Homeschooling Hit
By patp

This is a excellant sharpener. Our 5 homeschoolers have been putting it through its paces and it's holding up very well. The small blue light that lights up when the pencil is sharpened is a nice feature for the young and old alike.
WONDERFUL!
By Hope
from Kalamazoo, MI
This is wonderful! We had recently purchased another one and we were having continual problems, i.e. it was eating our pencils and not even getting them sharp. I finally decided to breakdown and buy this one and I completely love it.
