Great Value
Great sharpener for Blackwing pencils. When it is full the lid pops gently open for emptying. Comes in a small basic cardboard box easy to pop in your bag and has the instructions on it until you get used to which side is which! Seems sturdy, good blades, good price and gives a nice long point.Have now discovered that there are also some spare blades hidden inside and two tiny sharpeners at the other end for propelling pencil leads to be inserted through the colour edged holes on the outside that I mistook for hinges!

Derwent pencils fit this sharpener and it does an excellent job
A brilliant little sharpener and it actually fits Derwent pastel pencils and blenders. Derwent pencils seem to be slightly larger in diameter to others. Pastel pencils are notoriously difficult to sharpen as they break or blunt the blades but this sharpener does the job better than much more expensive ones I have tried. It comes with two spare blades which are loose so I have secured them inside with a bit of tape so that they don't get thrown out when the sharpener is emptied. There are two little holes on the sides which I think are to sharpen propelling pencils. A tip I was given is that you sharpen the whole pencil from one hole and then you can put the pencil in the other side to sharpen to a really sharp point if you need it. Would thoroughly recommend and it did help that I had tried a friend's beforehand but not with Derwent pencils then. It is small so does not take up much room in your art bag.

KUM is the only brand I will now use.
honestly I was of the mind that a pencil sharpener is a pencil sharpener, however I recently bought some nice pencils so I thought I’d buy a nice sharpener to go with them, and all I can say is wow, the difference between a quality sharpener and a standard one is astonishing, it has two sides one for shaping the wood and one for sharpening the “lead” it puts a lovely long point on with minimal effort and even has two replacement blades inside it seems very durable and is definitely easy to use, I will not buy any other brand of pencil sharpener again, the quality for the price is absolutely peerless, the only thing I would say is to be careful not to sharpen to much off your pencils the first time you use it as I did, very light pressure and a gentle turn is all you need.

Good blades, but flimsy lid and small canister
Like other reviews mentioned, this sharpener has a very flimsy lid. I expected the lid is attached to the body with a hinge but no, it's not designed to last.The blades are good, however this sharpener will let you see whether your pencils are crap or of quality. Good pencils sharpen effortlessly smooth but my set of Chinese made coloured pencils required pressing the pencils into the sharpener. The "automatic" bit is where it stops shaving off your pencils once they've reached their point (pun intended).I ended up sharpening my pencils straight into the bin as the long point means more shavings come out than a standard sharpener, which fills up the canister quite quickly. The lead pointer section also attracts pencil shavings badly so if you don't blow the shavings out everytime you shave, it might be a major bummer to have a sharpener fills with pencils' "dust".

Excellent, finally a decent sharpener
I had dabbled with various manual and electric pencil sharpeners but I could never achieve that truly fine point I always see other artists using to produce detailed work. I saw someone recommend this one, and thought I would give it a shot. I am very impressed, it really does create a very sharp point, and have been able to achieve some pretty impressive detail. I would certainly recommend this to others. Only negative is that it does not hold much in the way of sharpening's, but I don't really see that as a problem.

Works very well!
Excellent sharpener especially for the wider pencils and it also accommodates my 2mm leads in my mechanical pencils. Brilliant.PS spare leads available.

Disappointing
Doesn't take some of my thicker art pencils, otherwise ok
