I bought this product because the description said it was made in the USA. The box says it was made in China.

I am a elementary school teacher and this sharpener only lasted me a year and a half. It wont sharpen certain pencils…it eats brand new ones too. It worked well for about 6 months and then after that, it became a hassle.

I bought and returned this sharpener. This sharpener was worse than some battery operated sharpeners that I bought. It gnaws the pencil more than sharpens it, and it appears to be straining through every bit of it. The wood around the point looked fuzzy after it was sharpened.

It is a reliable product, but it doesn’t have quite the “grip” I was looking for. That is, it kind of tugs and tunes the pencil a bit while sharpening.

I bought this sharpener for my classroom because the box said it was powerful and quiet, and it sold for around $30 in the office store where I got it (but it was on sale for $20.) It is powerful, but it isn’t at all quiet. You have to hold on tightly to the pencil, because the sharpener tries to turn it in your hand. It has suction cups on the bottom that hold it really stable, which is a plus. Overall, though, my $10 sharpener that I’ve had for years is quieter and just as able to to the job, except that it’s too dull to use now. This one does the job, but it’s not fun to use. I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for smooth handling and a quiet ride.
