Pros & Cons

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

Pros

It sharpens pencils with variety of charcoal, color, pastel. It pulls in the rabbit- ear part as it sharpens and stops exactly when it should. All my pencils were nicely and consistently sharpened to a long point.



Cons

Every pencil is unevenly sharpened, leaving a strip of wood up one side of the graphite. When the end breaks off a soft pencil in this sharpener, it jams the last little bit of the opening inside and then the sharpener ceases to do anything.

Quality


Really solid and easy to hold while sharpening.


It is sturdy, and does a great job with auto-stopping to give the perfect point.


The pencil gripper is made of rubber, so it doesn't claw up my pencils.

Price


This sharpener was worth the $20 for how much of my colored pencils this will save!

Shipping


I was not able to contact mitsubishi (amazon could not give me any information on them) and it was way past the window of return.

Packaging/appearance


It said on the sticker "import from japan" but on the box and on the sharpener it said "made in china"!


The safety and operation steps printed on the box were all in japanese, and the very tiny piece of 'directions' inside the box ...  Read More

Competitiveness


So much better than the derwent, carl, and other sharpeners!


I have used several different brands of colored pencils in it and they all fit.


I have purchased many pencil sharpeners and none compare to this one.


You can get the same quality at the japanese dollar store, works better than american pencil sharpeners.

    Ive used other manual handcranked and electric pencil sharpeners in the past


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For that design to work the sharpener must be firmly mounted to a stable surface


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Even so the quality and consistency of the results are to an unfortunately large extent operatordependent


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Unlike other handcranked designs once the point is sharp it wont keep cutting when you turn it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The mechanism of the kh20 is more complicated than a regular handcranked sharpener but the user experience is actually easier


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Just watch a 30second video of someone sharpening a pencil with this online and youll have it down pat


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If it lasts at least as long as other sharpeners ive had ill be wholly satisfied
