Review on StudentsZone Cute Pencil Sharpeners Manual For Kids And Artists by Heather Shaw

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cute Flashy Clean Not as Sturdy or Strong

This little fella is incredibly cute, which is what makes it so appealing. My daughter sharpens every pencil she can find! I have to admit I haven't sharpened pencils in probably 6 years, so I was happy to see that this one "sucks up" the pencils and somehow holds them in place for your kid to free that hand. This is good for any child, but in this case it is almost necessary. And that's the main downside - with no clamping or suction function, you need one hand to actually hold the entire sharpener. Otherwise the handle cannot be rotated. Also, when I squeezed it tight, even I struggled to start a brand new pencil as it's not as hefty or strong enough to offset the effort required for those first few turns. up and then throws it. This compartment is easy to remove and push back even for a relatively nimble 5 year old. It sharpens incredibly well, so any keen kid can score points for a devastating level of sharpness - chin up. Oh, and not just for crayons! Overall it's pretty damn adorable and does the trick after a mini lesson with your kid. And it doesn't look like the chips will run away or the tray will accidentally fall out. what the key is. Not perfect, but a solid 4 stars.
