Bostitch Personal Electric Pencil Sharpener, HHC Cutter Tech, Stall-Free Motor, High-Capacity Tray

It appears to be an excellent sharpener. Last year I purchased an Xacto electric sharpener that did not make it through one school year. This Stanley sharpener has a better cutter that doesn't split the pencil but really cuts and grinds it like the old crank sharpeners. We've only had it a few weeks so know the question is: will it last? It was a good price and Walmart delivered it quickly.

works well. but if the wood on the pencils are old, the wood will tear and splinter. and if its garbage wood that the pencils are made of, then it will misshave the pencil. the first day we had it, we sharpened over 150 pencils. different ages and sets of colored pencils and #2 older pencils, and #2 new pencils. we saved up every pencil we had. it took 2 of us over an hour to accomplish sharpening, even with electric.
