Keep in mind I just got it today. So far so good. It's easy to install. I did slice the tip of my thumb off hitting it on the sharpener while tightening one of the screws (installing it). So be careful. That's on me. It's sharp. Be sure and hold pencil straight while sharpening and probably get quality pencils too. The first pencil had wood almost to the tip of the lead after sharpening it. When I saw that, I adjusted how I held my pencil and the others are fine. (hold the pencil straight in the whole.) I think that will help you get an evenly sharpened pencil. I recommend buying this. I grew up with this type of sharpener in school and it sure beats those little ones we use to keep in our notebooks pencil holder. That's what I was using before today. I hung it in my laundry room on the wall, it's convenient to get too and easy to use. In the laundry room I could hang it so it was at the right height for me. Which makes it easier to keep the pencil straight...which gets me an evenly sharpened pencil. I saw some reviews where that was a problem. I hope this helps. Also I got it in one day and on a Sunday to boot. I'm happy about that too. I don't know how long it will stay sharp and planned on waiting to do the review. Sorry I didn't wait so I can't say how long it will stay sharp but I'm so happy to have it I did my review right away. Get yourself one today.Read full review

I used the sharpener on art pencils, Prismacolor, Faber, Mongol, Crayoloa Metallic, and two store brands. The result was the same in all cases, The wood seemed to be too hard for the pencil sharpener, while the colored "leads" seemed to be too soft. But the time enough wood had been removed to get to the lead, the leads would break off, leaving a hole in the wood. Continually trying to sharpen the pencils resulted in losing 1 or 2 inches with no sharpened pencil, just a broken off stub.

The construction materials are of high grade and with the positive reputation of X-ACTO I expect the cutting head to serve very well for a long period of time. After only a couple of weeks many various types of pencils have been sharpened with great success so far.
