Review on πŸ–οΈ Stad T'Gaal Pencil Sharpener - Pink (Pack of 2) by Doris Tran

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Impressive - Edit

I'm really impressed with these sharpeners. When I did a quick google search before purchasing, I read somewhere that only the first two settings for color and should be used (can't find the info again). While the fact that this brand of sharpener is primarily plastic and has a long lifespan is unclear, I am happy with the purchase. This sharpener gives my Prismacolor Premiere and new Schpirerr color pencils a shorter, sharper point, which I prefer. I have ordered two more sets for future use. Update 12/02/2020: I've only been using the first sharpener from the original packaging for a few weeks and the door is no longer working. I didn't even use my Prismacolor Premiere set normally (I used my Wanshui/Huang Hui, the first flexible pencil set I bought for a change, and I use a different sharpener for it). They also appear to leave marks on the body of some pencils. I still like these, but obviously there are some downsides. I can sit down and see if I can find a metal alternative. However, I only remember a couple of desktop models. I really wanted something small and sturdy. I really don't want a model that sits outside where everyone and their siblings can sharpen pencils at will because I don't have a lot of storage space or privacy.

Pros
  • Pleasing
Cons
  • Obsolete
