good while it lasted!

Pros: suction cups hold it on the surface, makes a nice point
Model Number: Stanley Quiet Sharp 6
"I bought this sharpener for use in a 4th grade classroom. Students used it carefully for about 4 months before it started acting up. In 4 months we probably sharpen as many pencils as one person in 10 years so I guess it worked pretty well. I intentionally bought it through Costco so that I could return it when it died. I am ordering another one for my classroom because I really don't believe that they make a sharpener that will work for any longer. Thanks to Costco, I will just continue to replace them when they stop working."

OK for now

Pros: working for about 2.5 months
Cons: multiple hole selector indent does not hold positi
"Previous sharpener (different brand; different store) lasted a little over a week and was returned. This sharpener seems to invoke heat protection after about 38 resharpens. I do not sharpen to the finest point, but close. This test was done with a mixture of pencile brands. Starting temp of the sharpener was about 40 deg F, room temp was about 70 deg F. Cool-off period is somewhat extensive >30 minutes to get back to original 38 sharpens. Different brands of penciles with different woods (all natural) seem to take different amounts of time to sharpen so your results may be different than mine.
The multiple hole selector does not stay positioned as well as other sharpeners. Both users of this sharpener have complained about this issue. It is bad enough that I have considered expoxying the selector in the one used position.
I plan to update this review when the unit fails."

Now I always have sharpened pencils

Pros: sharpens very nicely
Cons: a little oversized. has big footprint
"It works great and does not chew the pencil down to the nub in order to achieve a sharp point. I am not sure that it is any quieter than standard sharpeners though. It is sitting on desk so I can use every day."

Top Notch

Model Number: EPS10HC
"The Bosticth Quiet Sharp 6 pencil sharpener was a great investment. It's sturdy and handsome and has sharpened pencils perfectly. It stays put on my desk and doesn't vibrate around. I am using this at home so it's not getting classroom or business usage, but based on the time I have owned it and my experience with it, I would certainly say it was money well spent."
