Pros & Cons
Pros
I find this pencil sharpener does a great job with my colored pencils. These sharpeners are amazing. Works so well. This sharpener is great.
Pre-k teacher here, and love these sharpeners for 4-6 year olds. It's a very nice size, small but not teeny, and she absolutely loves it!
The pick box is near the near box for “quantity’and “add to cart’. I love that the package came with three so we can keep them in different places where they do school work.
Cons
Listing is misleading as i thought i was getting 3 when it's only one sharpener. Pic shows 3, and it says price is for a pack. The add shows a three pack for 11 something but if you don't click on the three pac you only get 1.
Two hole if you do not hold the sharper strictly horizontally, chips drop out of opposite hole. It appears that i am not the one who has been mislead.

Thankfully they are pretty reasonably priced so replacing one wont cost too much

I bought these because they were cheaper than the brand i usually buy
It sharpens better than a much more expensive fancy german sharpner we have at home
Also the sharpener wasnot effective when sharpening

I have had the battery powered before but the pencil 34lead34 would always break off which meant taking it apart or even adjusting the slanted blades

Originally i was very satisfied with bostitch twist’n sharp onehole pencil sharpener because of its compact size as well as its container for carved led and wood

But having openings at both ends it messes up my pencil case by shedding carbon and wood powder if i do not empty the container

Later i found that the blades in bostitch twist’n sharp both one hole and two holes are not that durable

Regular drugstore sharpeners destroy those and eat away at those cheap party pencils

For anybody that uses color pencils you know the aggravation breaking your lead when you sharpen your pencil
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
And most of us attribute it to poor quality pencil for rough handling during shipping but since ive got this sharpener im convinced that its all calls because of the sharpening process from low quality sharpeners
