This pencil sharpener does not have a reliable auto-stop feature like most electric sharpeners. The pencils come out bizarrely sharp and pointy, which causes the lead to break immediately. It also does not sharpen evenly, so part of the wood is at the tip along with the lead. Also, the sharpener jams a lot. I HATE this pencil sharpener. I really should send it back.

I have been a volunteer in the elementary school for the last 2 years. I collect the teacher's pencils of all of the kids and sharpen them with this sharpener! I continue to do this throughout the year on a weekly basis. 2 YEARS! It has never had any issues.

2.0 out of 5 stars Deceptive labeling, December 14, 2009

I ordered this product from Buy.com via Amazon, because the ad had it labeled as a Hunt product, and said nothing about X-Acto. This was after reading the Amazon reviews, of which several said the similar product by X-Acto was inferior, but sharpener by Hunt was good. However, they sent me the X-Acto product called the XLR, #1818. Notice that the picture of the product doesn't say X-Acto on the front, but the real thing they send you does. So both Amazon and Buy.com are selling the same product, but Buy.com's is deceptively labelled as Hunt. And the product box also says "by Boston", but the bottom says distributed by Elmer's Products, Made in China. What nonsense! I'm going to give the product a try, but am not pleased with how it's handled.
