Repeatedly sharpening the pencils the kids use for drawing and homework.
Real experience
Yane’s experience
Yane shows how the sharpener starts when a pencil is inserted and also tries it with colored pencils. The clear container lets you see the shavings and opens at the top for emptying. She has found it useful at home with her three kids; she notes that the motor is strong, so you need to hold the pencil firmly.
The positives
- Starts automatically when a pencil is inserted
- Fits regular and colored pencils measuring 6–8 mm
- Clear shavings container that opens at the top
What you should know
- Requires 2 AA batteries, not included
- Not suitable for thick or jumbo pencils
- Hold the pencil firmly while sharpening; the motor is strong
Who may find it useful?
Families who use pencils every day for schoolwork and drawing.
