Review on 🔌 Portable Electric Pencil Sharpener by VEYETTE - Ideal for Kids, Teachers, and Artists - Plug & Battery Operated - Includes USB Charging by Gelin Battle

To be honest, giving this sharpener 3 stars would be more than generous. I looked at many battery powered portable sharpeners before settling on this one. They all have such mixed reviews and this one all had 5 star reviews but I didn't realize at the time there were only 5 reviews! Anyway, I had very high hopes for these. The first pencil is quite well sharpened. Otherwise either nothing happens when I insert the pencil, which means someone else tried. He could only get it to work face down, of course I knew I had to hold it with my other hand, but the pencil HAD TO REQUIRE SOME PUSHING ON IT TO DO SOMETHING! It means no pressure on the pencil, just insert it and it will sharpen. Not so! I'm so sad! The pencil should be sharpened evenly around the entire perimeter and not just on one side. It doesn't even come out smooth. I need to remove the shavings that are left on a pencil that is half in and half out. I spend a lot of NEW PENCILS just to sharpen a pencil. I get very frustrated just trying to sharpen my pencils and thus lose interest in working on my drawing! 😠😖😟
