About this item
- Seriously Sharp: Made of alloy steel, the single-hole sharpener has a heavy-duty motor and helical steel blade to ensure your pencils are sharpened to a perfect tip every time, around two seconds after insertion.
- Smart Design: The transparent shavings bin is extra-large to accommodate less clean-up; an indicator on the side of the machine shows when it is ready to be cleaned out.
- Secure Feature: Once the shavings bin has been removed, the sharpening feature will not work until it is replaced. The bottom has non-skid rubber padding to ensure it maintains stability.
- Space Saver: Our 6 x 4-inch sharpener features a vertical entry, which makes it less clunky and saves valuable desk space. Since it doesn’t need to be mounted on the wall like a mechanical one, it can go anywhere you do.
- Versatile Tool: Our sharpener is great for teachers at school or home; kids can quickly sharpen their colored pencils for drawing in their playroom, and it’s a great fit for desktop office use or a student working on an art project.

to use this sharpener, it still gives you a long sharp point not a blunt small rounded point which
other brands my co-workers have at there desks. Day shift & Night shift 60 workers all use this
sharpener on my desk everyday & 4 years old still give me that sharp long point even sharpens
color pencil, if you buy it you will love it, If mine brakes I will buy it again.
I've been doing research for months, I wanted electric pencil sharpener that will sharpen a pencil
with a long point, Where I work we have all brands X-Acto 1800 1818 - they worked but eats up the pencil
& some pencils are sharpened one side. I love panasonic sharpeners but are discontinued, Bostitch didn't
do a good job & motor didn't last for heavy use from day & night workers. For $15.00 more This School Smart
pencil sharpener is well made stronger motor & sturdy its sharpens the pencil faster just by pushing pencil done to
a long sharp point evenly, the other sharpens above will move when you push the pencil in to sharpen it. It comes
with a bigger container that easy to remove & empty without no mess. I bought this because it has great reviews
for lasting a long time without no problems this sharpener has Auto stop it detaches from pencil when the
sharpener is done & all you hear is the motor with no more grinding the pencil without wasting the pencil.
It even does red pencils with a longer point as no. 2 pencils - as for cheap pencils no. 2 may not sharp
evenly but still comes to sharp point. This is a well made strong sturdy solid motor This School Smart Electric Vertical Pencil Sharpener is worth paying the extra money it will last longer.
spending the 15.00 more & will last longer for heavy use then other brands.
UPDATING REVIEW - 03-19-2016
I'm works better than all sharpeners stronger motor, long points, you see in staples, walmart, kmart,
at my job co workers & bosses have all brands pencil sharpeners come to me sharpen there pencils
to get the long sharp point - which other brands give small point, or sharpen only on 1 side of the pencil
i have managers & co-workers who want know where i purchased this, They want if for work & for there
children other brands don't last long for what i was told who have children, this is solid sturdy I have 50
people from day & night shift always using it & no problem still giving long even sharp points on all type
pencils.

I have been using two different Kum sharpeners (the manual, "hold it in your hand" style) for a while, and while they give a longer point, the pencil points themselves are not perfectly sharp. I use my pencils to get into a lot of tiny areas, so I really want that super-sharp, needle-fine tip. And I was tired of using two hand-held sharpeners to get a decent tip after just a few strokes of the pencil.
I finally decided to go ahead and get this sharpener after reading the positive reviews. It's a bit of a beast- it makes a lot of noise, and you really have to smash the pencil down in there and hold on for dear life because it rattles around quite a bit. But it does a great job of creating long, super-pointy tips on my color pencils (even the oil-based ones, which are fairly soft and tend to bother other sharpeners) and does an even better job on regular No. 2 pencils.
I have to be honest- I don't love the way this pencil sharpener feels and sounds- because the pencil disappears inside and there's no sense of where the blades are (the minute the sharpener senses anything inside it, it starts), it really feels as if the pencil might be sucked from your hand and ground into a fine dust. I don't know why I get this more with this sharpener than others- I think other sharpeners get quieter or have a different "feel" when the pencil is sharp (that's what I remember the old Panasonic workhorse in my mom's office doing), and this sharpener doesn't have that. It's just a really disconcerting grinding feeling and sound. I wish they had made the sharpener body transparent, or horizontal, so it was easier to figure out where the blades were or how much has been sharpened off. There's supposedly an "auto-off" feature that is supposed to shut the sharpener down when the pencil is sharp, but that doesn't appear to be working on mine. I just stick the pencil in, hold my breath, and pull it out a few seconds later, positive my pencil will be ground up, but always happy to see a long, sharp tip.
Also, the hole for the pencil is "one size fits all" and some of my colored pencils are a little tight, but they still fit.
Despite the disconcerting noises and vibrating and grinding, this sharpener continues to produce super long and sharp pencil points. So I may not enjoy using it, but it works. Really well. We'll see how it holds up with repeated use, over time. But for now this is the only sharpener I have found- electric, manual, or otherwise, that produces the kind of long, super-sharp pencil points I really need for my work.
