Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is the best portable pencil sharpener that i have bought so far. The only complaint i have about them is the price and the fact that if students drop them the barrel tends to crack and become useless which *.

Prismacolor sharpener is an outstanding sharpener for graphite, color pencils, watercolor pencils and pastel pencils.

It precisely sharpens the pencils. Duel head sharpener(long points or fat points). Gives two options of points.

Usually one side goes out before the other and i find myself replacing them. There is a video on you tube that shows you how to open it to empty it. There are no instructions to show you but the video is easy to find.



Cons

There is no tab or indentation to make it easier to open the top to empty it. It's difficult to re-align the tube back into the holder afterwards. Absolutely butchered my pencils.

Highlights

Quality


The design facilitates the sharpening process into an efficient process.


This is the best sharpener with an attached container for waste.


Instead, hold the pencil still and rotate the sharpener lightly, only enough turns to return the pencil to a sharp point.


Two size holes for sharpening and it didn't break my soft core color pencils.

Price


Really good value to get 2 sharpeners.


I cringe having to pay over $6 for a pencil sharpener that isn't an electric.


It was money well spent plus i have 2 of them.

Packaging/appearance


No instructions on the packaging and the fancy container really looked like you should twist it.

Competitiveness


If these break within a years time, i will try a different brand.


I have ordered and reordered colored pencils with the same brand.
