Review on Cosmos® Random Plasctic Manual Sharpner by Karla Richter

I bought these pencil sharpeners last year to put in Operation Christmas Child's shoeboxes. They're small, light, colorful and most importantly, REALLY WORK! The sharpeners I received are slightly different from the ones in the photo in the description. Mine were in a plastic bag and were a translucent pastel color. Not a big problem, although I would have preferred lighter colors. Again, sharpeners work well with a turn or two, plus they're easy to empty when full of shavings. Another notable feature of this product is that the lid, which you remove to empty, stays in place...it doesn't fall off easily. Scattering chips all over the table or floor. I actually kept one sharpener for myself and have been using it regularly for over 4 months now. I am happy to report that he is doing great. If you're looking for a no-frills manual pencil sharpener (that actually works), this one is for you!
