Fantastic little sharpener. I recommend this to everyone.

All other pencil sharpeners I've heard are in our colored pencil group. sharpen twice as long. This thing is FAST. That's not bad for a battery sharpener. I took it to the shop for the day and didn't have to change the batteries. It also sharpens to a very sharp point. It is also very small, so it can easily be taken to seminars, clubs and on vacation. I love it.

Pros
  • Multiple competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Best sharpener - manual or electric

I'm writing this review because it's such a good sharpener and a reviewer downgraded the overall rating and I agree. Because I work a lot with colored pencils, I've become a sharpener collector. I have over forty manual and electric erasers and I've tested them all! Overall, The Duet is the best sharpener I've found. It is very small for an electric sharpener, making it easy to transport. It runs on 2 AA batteries and is very affordable. But best of all, it produces a sharp tip and has an auto…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Wonderful coloring accessories, and you can change the blade!

I've had the duet for about a year. I paint a lot for adults so this has many uses. (At least 15 or so are sharpened a day when I paint) It was great. I noticed last week that it just didn't sharpen my crayons as well as it should, or at least not as well when I first got it. So I pulled out one of those 50 cent two-hole hand sharpeners I keep in the office storeroom. I have a set of crayons that are too big for the duet and that's my only gripe. I disassembled it and lo and behold it's perfect
