I am so glad I gave the Classroom Friendly pencil sharpener a try. The above 2 electric ones broke after about 16 months of use. My kids never used it and it still broke! I had to re-sharpen most of the pencils because the lead would break immediately after I sharpened it. I thought they just didn't make pencils like they used to anymore. It wasn't until after using the Classroom Friendly pencil sharpener that I realized it wasn't the pencil after all; it was the pencil sharpener! I sharpened a pack of 24 pencils within 5 minutes (really depends on how quickly you can wind, though). Here are a couple of pictures:
Notice how sharp it gets. |
I sharpened the pack of 24 pencils and didn't have to empty it . In fact, there's still room! |
These pencil sharpeners are selling for about $25 and they sell out fast. You can grab yours by clicking on the picture below:
