A Point to Chew on
4 Stars
A Point to Chew on
Helical blades allowed for fast and even sharpening with a nice tip. It only took no more than 2 seconds to bring both artist quality water color pencils and budget coloring book pencils to a point. Very impressive for a 4 AA battery powered sharpener. The tinted window allows you to see if the shavings catch is full. The pencil port is on the top, not the side so this allows for you to stand the pencil as straight as possible so you have less of a chance of breaking the pencil lead. Takes up as much space as two bath size square bars of soap. No cord to fumble around with. A little noisy but you are grinding a wood based object. The batteries add weight so you can use it with one hand. The only thing holding back the 5 star rating is how much it chews off to make the point. I expected some loss but passing 1/4 inch mark on expensive artist quality pencils will shorten the life of the pencils fast. I tried it on budget coloring pencils to see if perhaps the high quality pencils were just softer but it chewed off about the same amount of barrel. I will probably invest in a manual helical sharpener for my more expensive pencils.

Great little sharpener. Cannot believe how beautifully this battery powered sharpener sharpens my colored pencils. To a fine, fine point that doesn't leave the tips crumbling or the tips breaking off. Yes, it is a bit loud while sharpening, but I have found a real bonus once you have obtained the point you wish to have-you are able to maintain that tip with a simple hand sharpener. So cool! Especially late at nite when everyone is asleep in your household and you are relaxing with your coloring. Nice and quiet. An added bonus. I have read in other reviews of the difficulty in actually figuring out how to place the pencil in the hole to sharpen it. I have NOT found this to be a problem. There is a guide inside that keeps the pencil from dropping down into the teeth of the sharpener too quickly. I have not had any pencil eaten up as previously stated. You will have total control as long as you are gentle but firm. If you jam the pencil into the opening you will NOT get the results you wished for. I have sharpened literally 150 pencils in the week and half that I have had this sharpener, and the batteries are still going strong. Please use high quality batteries. I think some of the problems people have written of may be the quality of battery. Just a suggestion.
This product is worth its weight in gold if you color a lot or use #2 pencils.

This ARTIST CHOICE ELECTRIC-PENCIL-SHARPENER BATTERY POWERED HEAVY DUTY HELICAL BLADE PENCIL SHARPENER is so worth owning. I didn't want another electric gadget to plug in plus I wanted something I could take with me. This pencil sharpener is perfect. It also has a rotating sharpener (helical blade) rather than the razor-type blades which have a tendency to wear out after a while. As I recall the type blade used in this sharpener never wore out when I was in school!

It is recommended that LR6 AA batteries be used so I ordered a box. Apparently the days are gone when a battery is a battery LOL but I digress. Once I inserted the batteries I proceeded to sharpen a couple dozen pencils. Every one of them sharpened quickly with no broken points. The sharpener is lightweight (good for carrying around) so I hold it with my left hand while sharpening with my right hand. It measures 2 1/2" tall x 4 1/2" long x 1 1/2" wide, a good backpack carrying size.

Should I encounter any problems within a reasonable period of time, I'll repost. This sharpener takes up little desktop space. It also seems well built and sturdy so I suspect I'll stay happy. Highly recommended especially for mobility and for excellent pencil points!

4.0 out of 5 stars Helical blade seems to minimize broken lead tips
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2018

This Artist Choice BATTERY powered sharpener is a good value, works well, and does it's job. The helical blade sharpens cleanly and seems to minimize broken lead tips compared to the single blade sharpeners. The sharpener (2"W x 5"L x 3"H) has the sharpening hole on top which makes for a nice compact design and use. Soft pressure is required to sharpen pencils and does the job nicely in a few seconds. Note, pressing too hard causes the motor to bind.

Perhaps, the only minor issue/con that I've notices is that the unit is lightweight that the body has a tendency to spin out as you sharpen if you don't hold it down. Adding mall rubber pads on the bottom might help, but otherwise, not a deal-breaker.

It's probably been years since I've owned a pencil sharpener and the one I had was of the side load capacity and broke the pencils as often as it sharpened them. I didn't think much of needing a replacement as almost all of my writing is on the computer. But as a published writer I do occasionally print copies of manuscripts, etc that require editing and that says use a pencil. So I sought out a replacement and for the price I thought this would serve the purpose. However, I was amazed that this little sharpener works so well. I probably have sharpened around two dozen pencils without a single broken point as well as it doesn't require that grinding that you have to do with other sharpeners. Probably a second or two of holding the pencil in gets you the finished product. It does require 4 AA batteries obviously not included, but beyond that, for the price and the convenience particularly if you have students still using pencils, this is definitely a great buy!

BATTERIES EXPLODED TWICE!!!

First time, I was actually using it and it made a really loud pop sound and quit working. When I opened the battery compartment, the battery literally had opened up and juice was oozing out. So I removed the batteries and cleaned it out real good and put brand new Duracell batteries in. The last batteries was an off brand. Well now here I am. A few weeks later and went to sharpen a pencil and nothing happened. So I went to open the battery compartment and noticed a white residue on and around the cover. So I opened it up and it was all over. Kind of looked like if I had put batteries in it 10 years ago and never used. The corrosion. Junk. Don't waste your money. I bought this April 15th 2020 and today is May 27th 2920. So I had this just a little over a month.

Well I guess I should of read the description but I was desperately needing a pencil sharpener and this one seemed cool. It is not electric so I'm highly irritated it says it on the sharpener. Wish it came with better instructions as when I sharpened a pencil for my daughter, then tried to sharpen one for my son and couldn't. After taking it apart and putting it back together I was able to sharpen his pencil. That's when I realized there was a door that closes after sharpening a pencil and it takes forever of shaking it to get it to open. Story of my life I tell ya. But this thing does put a mean point on a pencil.
