Staedtler Double-hole Tub Pencil Sharpener
Great for grandson going to college. Small, but sharpens well. It will be handy to have in a dorm room or carry in a backpack.

Best Little Pencil Sharpener
I love a precisely sharpened pencil and this little sharpener works as good as any electric sharpener. You won't be disappointed.

Exactly what I wanted

Staedtler® Double-hole Tub Pencil Sharpener
For standard No. 2 pencils, this sharpener is excellent - and I would give it 5 stars. It is replacing a cheap Staples electric pencil sharpened that finally went kaput. It never sharpened well - off center. This small, manual Staedtler sharpener does a far better job and is on center! However, for colored pencils with soft leads, it was a disaster.

staedtler double hole pencil sharpener
I am unable to remove the top of the sharpener for removal of shavings. Once someone removes it for me I am pleased with the way it sharpens my colored pencils.

Staidlerdouble- hole Tub pencil sharpener
The sharpeners are not very sharp and seem to chip away at the pencil as I sharpen them. Also the lead is constantly breaking while sharpening the pencil and the lead gets lodged in the sharpening chamber
