I am not impressed with this pencil sharpener.
It is virtually impossible to install this item in a manner that it will maintain its stability. Not recommended. Every other product I have purchased from Staples has been great. Just not this one.

Sharpens Pencils
It works great. The pencils come out very sharp and smooth. I wish there had been a mounting template to help mount it straight. I made my own template so all is good.

Fabulous sharp points
I immediately attached to counter and began to get some sharp points in the room. I despise a DULL pencil point

Good but not great
While it puts a good sharp point on the pencil it leaves a strip of wood extending up the lead which limits how long between sharpenings. Pencil has to be jiggled in the sharpener to stop this. Also there is no stop in it to prevent oversharpening. An entire pencil can be whittled down to a stub in seconds if not careful. It is otherwise strongly built to last a good l...

Good Memories Grade School to College.
There's nothing like a trip to the pencil sharpener. This one work just like the one in first grade. Five turns then pull out for inspection. New pencils take more turns so inspect after each set of fives.

Looks and function in one package.
I have to say that this is the coolest looking pencil sharpener in the world. It has a nice smooth action with no binding.

Not very good
This was to replace another sharpener. However it does not work any better than the old one. The end of the pencil has wood covering graphite. Must be pealed back to write. (Simply does not grind to the center of the pencil)

Beats electric sharpener!
Our shop has gone through many electric sharpeners. You often have to rotate your pencil to get a sharp point and then the lead ends up breaking off inside the pencil and you have to start over. Not so with this good old-fashioned sharpener! Our guys in the shop are loving the nice sharp point on the first try!

Old School is the Best
My kids love this sharpener - just a few turns and they get a point - unlike the electric sharpener (only sharpens one side) I just threw in the garbage
