5 out of 5 stars Decent pencil sharpener for home use   December 1, 2008
G. Zhu (Chicago, IL USA)
It's met my expectation to sharpen pencils automatically. The auto stop feature works well also. I have owned for a month now, so far I like it. Not sure how long it is going to last.

I owned an older version of this pencil sharpen until the motor recently died. The only reason it died was that I let someone else use it. I am a teacher and as you can imagine, used it more than the average person. I love every feature and would purchase this again with no hesitation.

Panasonic KP380-BK Classic Electric Pencil Sharpener, Black, 1 Unit br / br /I have tested and in some cases returned other pensil sharpeners. The Panasonic models have all been superior. The cost is a little more but the motor does not bog down and the auto stop feature works well. The KP380 is a newer model of the KP310 sharpener that a friend had. It seams to work just as well and hopefully it will last as long as my friends unit. br / br /Don't bother looking at other brands - buy the best.


5 out of 5 stars Truly a workhorse   October 31, 2008
Swen (Chicago, IL)
I have had this sharpener for about 4 weeks and can rave enough about it. The first task was to sharpen 96 artist grade color pencils. And one after another went through without a hitch. And it puts a wonderful point on the pencil with NO BREAKAGE. br / br /The next task was to sharpen all of my graphite pencils, about 75. And presto they all came out first class with nice long points. I have been working on several large drawings with a lot of shading. This sharpener has been winner. Keeps me working without any breakage or down time. br / br /The cutting head withdraws when the point is done so there is no overcutting, however the motor keeps running until you take your pencil out of the unit. br / br /Very happy with this purchase and it's sure you will be also. Cheers to sharp pencils.


5 out of 5 stars The only one worth bothering with   October 24, 2008

This seems to be double listed and Panasonic keeps changing the model number, but just go for "Auto-Stop" and save yourself aggravation. It's recommended by illustrators, who use a sharpener more in a month than most of us will in a year. It works faster than you'd expect and it will last longer if you don't overdo it each time (which people tend to do if a sharpener is backed against a wall, push as if trying to break through). It seems some people have gotten a "lemon" but this is the only sharpener I'll use - as I was told, buy this one and when it dies, buy another one. This part of life is simple.
