    You denied my return of order #912002632503698 when it was returned in original packaging and condition within the 30 day return window, keeping my money and my return. Target sucks! Everyone, boycott!

    If I'd used it only for a regular pencil, I probably would've given it 5 stars, because it does a great job, very sharp point. Buuuut, then I began sharpening my daughter's colored (map) pencils and it was awful! The first one jammed it and I had to take it apart to get the piece out. It does worse a job, the softer the wood. The firmer colored pencils do slightly better, but it takes several goes and eats up a lot of pencil before it gets a decent point.... the softer wood just jams it over and over. So if you're only using hard, regular pencils, this is a great choice for you.... but not for anything else.

    mpbarrick - 1 year ago
    This sharpener kept getting stuck on our pencils (Ticonderoga brand). You have to push them in very slowly and it doesn’t sharpen smoothly, it feels like the motor is really working hard. It wasn’t sharpening our pencils evenly either but maybe another brand would work better.

    Short cord causes tripping issues. Longer cord needed for safety when sharpening pencils.

    Broke after 2 years but worked well for that time! Sharpened standard #2 pencils and colored pencils in no time. Going to buy this again. The motor must have died. Nothing is stuck in the chamber so I assume that's what failed. One downside is how small the sharpening catcher is. It's just the front clear part and it gets full quickly and is messy to empty when full. We've had many a spill over. But for the money, it's a great sharpener.

    Couldn’t get through more than 3 colored pencils. Kept stopping. I’d have to rotate the pencil slightly to keep going. Sharpened the first one quickly and nicely. Then it started chewing them up awfully.
