if this is a personal pencil sharpener, you are going to love it.

Vertical pencil sharpeners allow a much more natural motion for sharpening your pencil. It's actually enjoyable every time you use it.

Probably not the best solution for a group pencil sharpener because of the tray capacity which is fine for one or two people.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the Artist, June 20, 2009

I bought this because of the auto stop feature which saves my expensive art pencils from getting eaten up to quickly. It is also nice because while I'm in the middle of a project, I can quickly and regularly keep a nice sharp point. This is a great product, recommended to me by my Art professor.

I bought this, thinking that with the upright design, I could use it one-handed (handy in the classroom). Not the case. I have to hold the shavings container with one hand and the pencil with the other. If I do not, the shavings container comes just slightly open and the sharpener stops working. In general, I love Panasonic sharpeners, but will go back to the front-loading variety.
